A bit of kudos here to Dwayne. Last 1/4 he emphasised several times that next season with Oliver and Trac back in full health and JVR having his break out seasonwhy can't the Dees challenge again quickly.

True on Nibbler, but why can't Rivers, Turner, Tholstrup, Windsor etc. be the next to take over that mantle.

Great pick up. Poor Jack - just a bit of confusion there.

Spot on. He will have been briefed by his manager. Don't look too keen.

1 handball to half time?

Exactly. Pert conducted the pre season 21 reveiw of the FD. Went OK from memory.

At least he's fronted up. Where's Craig Kelly from the Pies answering his racial issues to the members. Silence behind the President who was as bad defending him. Media on Pies or Bombers culture? Crickets.

I think you've succinctly outlined what's going on. Thanks

Seriously.? I'm still waiting. Why does trac or anyone have to speak. Just because we think so.? Media moves on this week to next crisis now dees not in finals.

A good story to an editor is one that generates high click rate. Nothing else My inside knowledge is that trac is needy for attention and always has been. But not leaving. Wants to be loved and back in a successful team. Pretty much like all of us. Morris has misconstrued agendas and come up with a product. Selling papers though so mission accomplished.

I'm sick of statements purporting to be true. Who is your source on the trac statement above? Put up or keep off this site.

Ox's best prognostication was a few weeks ago saying Charlie Curnow was due and would kick a bag. Even though he was nowhere near to best forward currently (Jesse that is) He's been taking lessons from Clickbait Cornes on how to in his case re-build a media presence.

Geez give it a rest. Tom Morris must be loving this. Of course they would say it - BECAUSE ITS TRUE

Not as subtle as my post. But jvr has those sticky hands that Luke doesn't have and will be more important now for us

2 possessions in critical final quarter at home against the cats. Beaten by Stanley in the ruck. Yes he has some way to go. His pathetic finals performance in 2022 is what I remember him for. The gf was won by our ground ball engine room of trac clarry and viney (plus many others)

Sure it does now. I'm talking about 2025. Point still stands.

Nice one. Where's opinion piece on Kelly at the Pies and failure to fix racist culture. Kane knows how the bills are paid. The snow cloche was the give away

Hang on. Omac and frosty at least had good 2018 finals. Remember frosty's first quarter torp against the hawks!!!!!!!

It was a direct quote at a post season review meeting in the mcc dining room post 2019 around November by Pert( I think- it may have been a mc member). I was at the meeting. It was a clear statement of fact. Nathan Jones and 1 other were all the completed all pre season work The issue was backed up personally to a friend by former club coaching staff member Brendan McCarthy. "...the team went into the 2018 pf exhausted..."

Petty will be my litmus test for goody and team planning. If petty lines up in Round 1 2025 as a forward, after a 2 year failed strategy, then goody lost me. He must be seen as all he can be. A very good key defender

Ed's a private schoolboy. Maybe he outsources the dirty work of chain cleaning. Just a guess.

Absolutely a priority

Very simplistic and needs qualification 2019. Banged up after finals in18. Only 2 players completed a full pre season 2022. Injuries cruelled any finals hopes yet nearly won both. Trac on 1 leg 2023. Finals selection issues by coach. Poor decisions. Oliver with 1 good hand. Brayshaw. Yet nearly won both. 2024. Nothing to work with due to injuries and no forward strategy. Flag midfield gone. 2025. Big things still expected

No way DDavey was he ever going to Mongolia. No rock climbing sites or indoor facilities. No decent bike repair shops either. Nice one Ed.

Great summary of langdons view of the world wcw. The club had to ban him from rock climbing on game day mornings. He holds the afl record this year for most out of bounds on the full. Ed carries the great Stan Alves number with pride I'm sure and I'll bet culturally he only makes us a better team. Excellent signing.
