  1. Spot on Mr. Leg. Is it just me does the AFL look to be slipping vs NRL? The new CEO seems like a wet blanket. At least we haven’t had any virtue signalling for a while. It is no surprise that it doesn’t seem to matter which recruitment method for developing players the AFL have we never seem to qualify for any player.

    Sadly I am not convinced he is more than a contributor. We need a power CHF who can kick 30 goals a season. Two days before our first game of 2025 I don’t see one on our list. Sadly it appears that none are available so we are trying to pick a diamond from obscurity. Worth a try!

    But will he pf, I am all for playing Jefferson but not sure this is the week. I am also not convinced he has another level.

    Turner has had the odd good game but is no world beater.

    I struggle with that forward line kicking a winning score against GWS. Looks very similar to what didn’t work for most of last year. If Fritz doesn’t play a reasonable game he should be in the Casey team for week two. He was gifted games for weeks on end last season.

    I agree pf but 4 is enough at this stage.

    I guess that is why we have bought in other players.

    Then play Jefferson it is not as though there are players with form keeping him out. If we don’t try some of these guys we are just going to repeat the 2024 forward results.

    So why on earth did we draft him?
  10. The romance will be over by July and he will have no reason to leave WA. Talk about 1+1 =3.

    Fullerton played 19 games for the Lions, it’s his second season with the Dees. We are struggling for KPF’s or any forward who can kick straight. Time to play him.

    The AFL want GWS to have a good year.
  13. Appreciate your info. The next three weeks will tell how much we miss Kossie.

    From reading reports of last weekends game ( I am not in Australia) it seems that our forward line performed much the same as for most of last year. Now I know JVR played a some total of 2 minutes however with Kossie out for the next three games we are still in need of a decent goal kicking KPF. Turner and Petty are not the answer. Surely now is the time to play one of Jefferson or Fullerton if not why are they on the list? . Play one of this pair it is the first game of the year a loss now is not season ending and we might see the reason they are on the list.
  15. I haven’t kept track of Jackson since left however I seem to remember his first season with Freo was ordinary. How was he last year? His last year with us was bog ordinary. Is he worth chasing. My view with admittedly little knowledge of his recent form I see Kossie as way more valuable than him.
  16. I cannot believe there is 8 pages on something that is click bait. The non story of 2025.
  17. If he is not playing regular games by mid year it won't happen.
  18. Warm but pleasant in Singapore.
  19. Good to hear hardtack. I rang causeway construction and they said Hung is on annual leave. Believe he was visiting a rel in Melbourne.
  20. Interesting dc I don’t think they have news papers any longer up here. Everyone has some sort of electronic device. Get on a train and not one newspaper or book to be seen. Everyone is watching news, movies and shows. There are from what I have seen no newspapers to be seen anywhere. None in hotel lobby or breakfast restaurant. Ideal place for the electronics world. Big population in a small area, easy and cheap to provide the internet.
  21. Thanks GW, funny there is nothing about the game in the press up here in Singapore.
  22. It’s the 21st century DA! Why can’t someone from the VFL , Casey or MFC do this it’s not rocket science.
  23. Hmm today I have travelled to Singapore. My GD was playing under 16 basketball the game finished and I could get the result and stats 10 minutes after the game finished on an airplane. The VFL is a joke. Oh her team won.
  24. I expect Casey will be a lot better this year. Saints hmm!
  25. More info dc
