Daisy on Indigenous round and the minute's silence for the Queen
Might need to keep the adoption of all children in Australia and the relevant numbers , for another day. l reckon there could be another polarising issue at hand on that one. Same too, of the Queen personally signing an Australian Act of Parliament in lieu of the normal Governor General precedent. Suffice to say, l would personally hope and like to believe that she would have done so in this instance maybe symbolically and with the best of intentions . Also once approved by Parliament, legislation is normally / never knocked back or retracted as far as l know.

Not really into virtue signalling. The Queen wasn’t born when the colonisation took place. l thought the Queen was decent individual who pretty much dedicated her life to service and her role. But l understand your point of view.

I like Daisy, but l’m disappointed she chose to become a political spokesperson.

Farewell Luke Jackson
Bit more to it than that. We need to clearly define trading requirements on our young players. Kosi could be next.

Very apt nom de plume.

Farewell Luke Jackson
Not too many 21 yo with a C/V like Jackson. Cameron/ Kelly no premierships !

Farewell Luke Jackson
Oh please. That is massive unders. I would consider that being totally screwed. Just look at the C/V we have created for him and then precedents of Cameron and Kelly. If we get rogered like that Taylor’s negotiating skills are zero.

Why did we fade out in games?
How about reviewing the individual stats for the last half of the past two games. Let’s see what that brings, who was absent etc.

Farewell Luke Jackson
Relax . What will he get paid at Freo? Rising Star winner, Premiership player, very young , a player we we were looking to build our team around and you suggest he has limited trade value ? I don’t think so. This bloke arguably has the greatest currency value ever afforded in the competition. Refer Kelly, Cameron.

POSTGAME: SF vs Brisbane
Yep. Full blame surely must rest with selection committee. Going with the same team after being comprehensively bested the week before was flawed.

GAMEDAY: QF vs Sydney
Leadership? Oliver ok the rest? The bit about doing it for the supporters seems to have been lost somewhere. Shocking let down for so many.

Farewell Brodie Grundy
Just don’t feel comfortable with a Grundy deal and if it also involves a high pick, even less comfortable. Comparisons of two previous trades , Kelly and Cameron ,set some sort of precedent for any Jacko, trade should it happen. To then take on a Collingwood problem and pay them super handsomely for it, just doesn’t sit right with me. End of rant.

What's next for Adem Yze?
Dees wouldn’t allow Demon ooz at Bombers. Agree he would be a good fit at PA

Harrison Petty incident
Zorko finished!

Farewell Brodie Grundy
Not for me. 5 years and $3.5 million. - he’s 29 Ouch! Just too rich and we haven’t done all that well with Collingwood trades. Not sure how the cats could afford him ,but happy for them to take the risk and clog up salary cap. We have a few we will have to tidy up next year.

POSTGAME: Rd 21 vs Collingwood
Conversion rate poor. Forward structure just lacks danger and devil. Too many players without enough tricks and class to be considered top end.
-
Farewell Luke Jackson
Lobb is 29 and C grade. If we took him it would very soft trading.

Vale Noel McMahen
Sad to hear the news. Wonderful bloke, great leader, very good player. Very tough on the field, complete gentleman off it.

POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Geelong
Small forwards didn’t show up last night. Chandler was unlucky last week and hopefully gets recognised next outing.

POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Geelong
The good old Geelong at Geelong thing ( the first game they put in the draw each year) even better this year on a Thursday night. So easy for supporters to get there. No seats anyway l suppose. I’d like the stats for all the other Victorian clubs visits over past 20 years.
