Clear stream on AFL SITE in Paris. JC KT look like footballers

I suppose the fact we won the clearances 38-26 must suggest the Collingwood ruckmen were hitting to Melbourne players

I have no concerns about him leaving. I was watching a small portion of the greatest game in the AFL era last night (which i do in times of stress). For those like me who couldn't actually see it live, it occurred at the end of the 2021 season. On his right forearm Kozzie had inscribed the word "loyalty". I admit I hadn't previously noted it (despite watching the game more than once) but it clearly indicates he is going nowhere.

So one less continuing player who played in the greatest AFL game of the 21st century.

3 I think. Ash would have played his 100 tomorrow if not suspended

Only the fourth player of his draft after Kozzie, Serong and Anderson to play 100. It was a pretty good draft too

Actually played just over 50 but another young player

Van Rooyen.

Actually it was 6 who have played less than 50 games and 4 who have played less than 20

If you can extend your "quality kids under 23" out another 2 months we have: Pickett Rivers Turner Bowey Van Rooyen McVee Monez Wakefield Windsor and Tholstrup We also have: Woewodin Howes Jefferson Brown All of whom I have some hopes could have a reasonable AFL career. I dont think it is the worst base to build a team on

many thanks for this series. It has reopened a few wounds and brought back some moments of joy

Thompson retired as he was "sick of football" He wasnt sacked.

He was walking round the Tan last week and patted our family dog (who is now allowed to sleep on my pillow)

Not wishing to be a pedant or a smartarse, but they had 3 players with less than 50 games against our 7 and one playing his 50th. They were on average 11 months older than us and averaged about 6 games per player more. With us having 7 aged under 22 commpared to their two, i reckon they are the middle aged bombers.

What young guys. They only had 2 under 22

I regret to say that I am on record as saying the only good thing Max would ever to for the MFC was to puke on Tom Scully. That was a long time ago. Now i proudly boast that young George Gawn did swimming lessons with my granddaughter.

Only if it is a deliberate and studied understatement

For what it is worth, it is Richmonds biggest loss and easily their lowest score for the season.

Have read through about half post game thread and it is a pleasure not to see any critisism of the umpires. It is just possible there may be some comment on the Richmond fan forums.

Only saw first half at teh ground. Thomo had lots of posessions but several were of the kind Hawthorn backs had against us. Some very good and some ordinary. Dont be fooled by the high posession numbers however.

It was just in front of me. He got a call and gave it in the right direction. Dont look on it as being Hunters fault. Otherwise, he hasnt looked all that good although a bit better in the last few minutes before half time.

Billy Picken did. He was reqruited from Heywood

Hawks have a higher score in the first half than they did for the whole game against us.

Looked a happy player in a happy team during the last quarter on Saturday. And he was first to get his arms round Petracca after "that spoil" with a huge smile on his face

If anyone is feeling a little down, go the Big Footy Hawthorn page reviewing the game. They are a mite unhappy. And if that doesnt cheer you up, todays was Hawthorns lowest score against Melbourne since 1960.
