I guess we could rely on Bomba to deal with him?

That would assume he was nicknamed Benne

ETD - IF Nev doesn't want a bar of him I would say the club would have no interest. I still feel that the club should 'run it past him' and if he says no, fine, end of story. He is a strong leader and I totally agree we should not burden him as 'indigenous welfare officer' but it wouldn't hurt to ask him the question, that's all I am getting at.

Some would make the same case for us. I am not one of them, and more so if Jesse leaves.

IF he were going for nothing, AND if Nev sat down with him one on one AND was convinced that he (Nev) could get him on track and keep him on track then ....maybe. But he would need a very strong minder, like Nev, and very strict conditions on his contract. (Maybe this would be unfair on Nev, but at least worth exploring if Nev were willing. Without applying pressure on Nev, I would trust his judgement.

Highlights are highlights, but at least he does look very capable and physical. What has been the problem between him and Norf? Mental? Injury? Team balance?

IF that is the case, a true journalist would preface along the lines of "...breaking news, yet to be verified .... "

The 2018 version of MFC doesn't leak like a sieve - doesn't meant than nothing is bubbling in the background. Still, I agree that it is ve.y frustrating for supporters,

I would take that in a heartbeat.

I am more than happy to hear nothing from Mahoney. Keep Freo guessing and under pressure

The carrier pigeons fly faster and farther these days, and telegrams are also delivered within a few days

Harley Bennell ?

Oh ... so his foot has healed, at least for now? Are you perhaps suggesting that we have yet another crack at a tall King?

Not sure he would necessarily clear up cap space, having signed a new contract a month ago. It certainly would ....... May may be stretching that already.

Is it really too much to ask for both teams playing in Darwin to have a bye the following week? It is a pain in the ass but if the money is right, and this inequity can be addressed then I guess it is tolerable. But it is unfair to both teams not to have the bye following.

Which may explained the interest in KK???

Preuss could be the forward and ruck key.

I don’t want to see Freo advance such that the entire team can kick more than 70 goals for the season, let alone Jesse ?

Yes - I am also surprised. Still looks and speaks as if he is as dumb as #@*&^, but his content can be thought provoking. (Doesn't get rewarded for diving, which is a pleasant change).

So Mr Helium says it so it is true?

Watt?

Norm Smith - Athol Webb, Alan Rowarth and to a lesser extent Barry Bourke. All premiership FFs who weren’t big and didn’t always kick many goals. But I am not sure that this is the time or this is the list to rely on “decoy” FFs.

That is punctuation, not spelling. (I didn’t have that hat on at that time).

Jayden needs not only better disposal, but also better (to use a golfing term) course management. Raw golfers see the flag and try to hit it - wham!! More mature / composed golfers work their way towards it, avoiding hazards and silly errors. Similarly, Jayden needs to either pause a little and take in his surrounds, or just look around a bit more. PS: I hope and feel he will pull off those refinements and become a very good cog in our gearbox.
