A large story in today’s HUN about season 2021, quite a bit of discussing the various possibilities. However they are saying at this stage no one knows. Interesting that the Dogs chief discusses memberships for 2021 and he expects them to drop and how do they add value if you cannot go to games. Even with reduced numbers not all members would be able to get in. The other thing that I thought interesting is the the size of the off field personnel numbers. It was said that this may be one of the good results of the virus. It was claimed that the FD staff numbers were approaching one person per player. FD numbers have exploded since 2000.

IQ means nothing if you don't get the ball.

I never do LDC. You know what is the second language of the afl. Add commentators who are trying to justify their existence and you have the greatest fog since 19th century London.

Not so long ago we had a number of players winning rounds. They all ended up poor. I don't attach much importance to that award.⁰

I don't have any problems with our list management. 6 years ago we had a vfl list. To drag us up to the current level is a tough job when you are a small club with no success.

I am in no rush to see Tmac go, the guy gave good service up to 2019 when he got injured a lot lost form at the start of 2020 and all of a sudden the guy is hopeless and every one wants him gone. A player does not lose his ability, he might be down from confidence or injured but talent does not vanish. Seems for whatever reason he has fallen out with our poor FD. Why?

That's the game now JD. Players who want a better deal from their current club need a stalking horse.

Just in time to move to the Dees in 2022.

Sadly neither do I.

I understand they would be paid till end of October. What happens if the deadline passed and they are not told then susequently after the end of August they are then told not required what happens?

Seems a fairly simple choice based on what he requires. Chance of another GF and winning most weeks join the Cats. Wants to boost his super joins the Dees.

Serious question. So if they weren't advised by the end of August and we now finish them up, are they to be paid extra? Or does the MFC cop a plenty from the AFL. What I cannot imagine is if assistant coaches were told it is all over guys the the info would not now be out.

Right at the moment the whole thing is a dog's breakfast. It is difficult to see Vic teams being able to fly around the country at AFL level let alone a reserves competition. At senior level Gil and his boys cannot work out how many players each team is allowed so when will they work out the reserves comp. What we don't know would fill a very big book.

I thought all FD people had to be advised by the end of August if they were not required the following year. This was to ensure they had the best chance of getting a job for the following year. Is this still correct ?

He ain't there yet but he has improved. Where did he go in the last four games ? No goals against poor sides. Funny no one remembers me asking every week why he was not playing when the side was screaming out a kpf. He is our only KPF so from game 1 2021 play him or trade him. I have also said all along I am very to be wrong.

He is bog ordinary.

One good and the other less some. I did expect he would get at least another year he has been the coach’s favourite since day one in spite ordinary form at Casey.

Those two are expected of every AFL player. They don't set him apart from anyone you would want to take the field.

You are not alone but he started in a very strange year. Normally there would have been a number of Casey games for him so was hardly a good year to start. Let's see what 2021 brings.

Me too but it will be the biggest surprise to me this century.

The guy is small, to succeed at AFL level if you are small you have to be very good in at least one skill. He is not very good at any skill.

At minimum that is two of us.

Hmm can you tell me which of our mid field is a champion please? I see some good players but I would not call any of them champions.

Ok I will bight rjay who?

Probably barrack for Richmond.
