Well at least, finally, this absolute joke of an AFL "support development competition" will get some games played.

Huge chance Dees to make a huge statement. One change only - Kozzie will be missed but the excitement of a new Kolt may almost cancel that out. Certainly looks as dynamic and as strong as Kozz. Will he make Kozz earn his return for ANZAC Eve? Backline settled and working beautifully as a UNIT / TEAM. Midfield always prepared for good hard go and a forward line working with better structure and some smart delivery to space by the likes of Duke Tracc Spaz ANB with Frittata slipping unnoticed out the back often enough. And Clarrie at 70% is so much better than many others at 100% - just wait, I must add JVR's back up ruck work is very good for one s0 young who is not a "natural ruckman".

Thanks for posting that, Chook. It takes us all back a long time, into the Dark Ages, but Tom has certainly been a stayer. I seriously wonder if anyone, Tom included, thought that he would be such an important instrumental player in 2024 after the disappointments of 22 and 23. A tribute to hard work, guts and determination, and perseverance. Well done Tom. PS early in the clip I saw one of my old favorites, not known for his skills but for his hard work and endeavor, our previous redhead #13 Jordie McKenzie.

Standing still ain’t an option - full kudos to the entire club from recruiters, fitness staff, specialist and line coaches as well as Goody of course for the way our club develops talent these days. We have had some fantastic newbies since 2021 - Bowey, Chandler, JVR, McVee, Howes, Windsor etc (humble apologies for any I have missed) . Just hoping that the naturally slower developing talls Jefferson and Adams and Verral are all allowed time to make their mark. Exciting times for Dees supporters.

DB - as has been pointed out, play those bits at 2x speed or jump forward 15 or 30 seconds. Surely the Grand Old Flag would be a more appropriate tune. Though the Bohemian start above was pretty promising.

It is the inconsistency that pi5535 so many of us off. Greene not even cited, because had he been it would be worth4+, and the other guy (can’t remember who) who got the same penalty for a much more serious hit. It is no wonder that there are conspiracy theorists about, and that there are some who suggest that the AFL is a corrupt organisation. Incompetent and inept are perhaps better descriptions.

spirit - you mean they don’t just talk spin and bumf to please the media and the donors. They tell the truth. I will take our Demonlanders every day. A long time ago but weren’t there proper nouns (capitalised) and common nouns though it probably now regarded as elitist or classist or colonialist or demeaning to use such differentiation.

Imagine how Soligo would have gone had Kozzie not had such a medium impact on him 😮

Poor bugger has never had an injury free run. Prior to the season he would have been next in line - now the resurrection of TMc and the reemergence of Hore has him way back in the queue Good luck Disco.

Agree 100% that Kozzie needs to get this out of his game but in what world was that impact “medium”. How could it be anything other than minor as the guy played straight on. The impact levels are frankly pulled out of that inept Collingwood / AFL apologist Christian’s back side in a semi random manner - semi random because it does actually depend on the offenders club. Would that be “medium” were it Cripps or Neale or even #4💩? No way. It ain’t paranoia when everyone really is out to get you. 🤗

In 2023 he amazed me with his calmness In 2024 he amazes with even more calmness and unbelievable mature thinking and disposal to advantage, under pressure. He is becoming a leader of the backline and it is hard to believe he has played just 30 games and is only 20 yo. Lock him in for a decade
