monoccular

Brilliant work though still trying to decipher it ❤️💙 Most teams are going to / have been conceding 100 points.

I can understand a tall forward taking hit outs deep forward, and yes occasional stints in the middle, but using a tall defender makes no sense (Petty did do a great job at centre ball ups) as it leaves us one tall defender short so one opponent free. Has anyone seen any “forward craft” from the other Max? Luker does seem (from what I have read) a more versatile option to maybe play off the 5 man bench. Interesting dilemmas.

What a sad joke of a “support / development” competition.

Just goes to show what a meaningless expression “a number of years” is! Norm Smith’s last flag was a number of years ago - 62 being a number. Our last flag was also a number of years ago - 5 being the number. And so on … JC the number being 2026, and so on. And by the way, none of the others come within a bull’s roar of OUR MAX ❤️💙

Conflict of interest is the “core value” of the AFL. MRO Tribunal Scheduling Draft exceptions

Alternatively have a panel of Tribunal Chairmen, and of MROs, on rotation, but redacted if a decision would make, or potentially make, an advantage to their affiliated club. The old adage of justice needing to appear to be done does not apply to the AFL.

Give the guy as long as it takes. Too much exercise if not 100% over glandular fever can lead to relapse. So he needs to ease in.

What incredible confidence especially for a debutant to take that third bounce and leave the Aints defenders looking like under 10s. There is so much to look forward to.

Rename them - Aint Skilda

JVR Max Kozzie Steele Tholstrup Salem But really such an even team performance that after the first two I could have called most of the team

Steele - an absolute steal Latrelle - exciting times ahead

Wonderful to have you all back and thanks for what you bring to us all I know it wasn’t only JVR, but how wonderful having a forward leading into space, and for those upfield to honour those leads and kick the ball in front of him instead of on the top of his head. If this is due to “ the new game style” then exciting days ahead. PS Latrelle “Cuzzy” Pickett- what an absolute ripper AFL debut for a kid whose last game was Glenelg Reserves, and that goal was pure joy and magic. Did quite a bit of other stuff as well.

What an incredible difference forward leading into space, Mids kicking to space in front of that forward Confidence to nail set shots

Go Nibbler. ❤️💙
