monoccular

IMO a good signing. Experience. Leadership. Poise. Skills. And he has really only had a couple of months of match day battering this year that should leave him quite a bit fresher than many of his team mates and opponents.

What do you actually mean by culture killer? He appeared to be well liked and respected. Yes, he could be a momentum killer if that’s what you mean.

Not so sure if a faster game style would suit Jack in any way at all.

(re Sparrow). “….we just cannot develop players like the best clubs can. “ Maybe he has actually got more out of himself than he thought .. maybe he has reached his ceiling. Hope not though. Looks to me like Hunter was … just maybe we could get one ok year out if him but at what opportunity price and what $$ price??? 🤗 However, as a Cat fan friend pointed out to me in 2022 “too old, too slow … too good”. They have for all our ridicule kept on keeping on longer than most would have imagined.

Lackadaisical

Agree - the cost would be huge. If he were cheap then maybe.

DD - just wondering if you have clearance data from when we were at our best. Other than 'bang, bang, bang' I was of the impression that we tended to lose clearance numbers even when MG11 was dominating hitouts.

But, like so many 'rules' in AFL, only selectively enforced.

Agree 100% - Fullarton's recruiting is an enigma. Tarin Au-Mu sounds a genuine prospect as a forward / ruck but if drafted would expect to take at least a couple of years to get ready for a run.

old dee - agree 100% re FullArton and 0% re JVR McVee and Turner

we could put our facility in a tunnel somewhere between Cheltenham and Box Hill - no apparent shortage of funding there

I think I'll just be barracking for gws Jesse Hogan now

How many direct goals has Hipwood conceded now? Was it Eric the ant, or the gnat, in the Monty Python song?

So, next week GW$ v BNE (SCG), and Port v Hawks (AO). I would go for GW$ and Hawks.

OK. Carlton AND Geelong equal worst. Cripps, Dangerfield and Hawkins never ever pinged.

Dissent 50 meters would have ended the game - of course ignored. Carlton are the worst and never get pinged. Anyway, Loman finally nailed one.

Maggots doing their best. Ignored 4 classic HTBs by Carlton, then a 50/50 at best goes to Blues.

Logan Morris - wouldn't want to rely on him to save your life.

OMG - 4 in a row. Lions laying down, or Blues revived by de Koenig?

Have taken it seems

Couldn't or couldn't be bothered to open the banner headline. What is that about a new postcode? 2899 maybe. They may like a few tourist $$ and a footy ground.

Wait for the JT magic. 🤔

… after one of them misstep” on the ludicrous stand rule by one millimetre at half back when they are leading by a few points when the siren blows. “Very generous” 50 meter penalty and another 50 because. Gingivitis rolls his eyes in dissent. Goal.

The dissent rule that has been applied maybe one or twice this season??
