  1. Giants in the PF and Lions in the GF were hard done by as well. Guess who their opponent was? Maybe its the influence of the ferral pies crowd, but it's definitely a pattern
  2. You are right. Not dismissing the seriousness of DUI, but it's hardly a character flaw worthy of passing on him
  3. 2023: Ben McKay, X Duursma, Taylor Adams, Brody Grundy 2022: Brody Grundy, Izak Rankine, Jason Horne Francis, Luke Jackson, Josh Dunkley, Tom Mitchell, Jacob Hopper, Taranto 2021: Adam Cerra, Jordan Dawson 2020: Adam Saad, Peter Wright, Treloar, Cameron, Daniher Whether these guys are 'elite' or not is always up for debate Some were involved in MFC trades, some were going home to other states, some have only come good after moving clubs, some have had setbacks, some are yet to fulfill their potential The but the bigger question is would they have improved our list significantly? Even if we landed 2 or 3 of them? I think so. Putting the mess of Brody Grundy aside, we've been poor at trading in since Steven May came on board 6 years ago. Are we on the nose?
  4. Lethal on the TV just said he'd have Grundy in his team before Max. He's chanelling picket fence! Whoda thunk it!
  5. Oh, Picket... you shouldn't be hitting the scotch this late on a school night! 🥃🥃🥃
  6. My kingdom for a strong marking forward like Jesse Hogan!
  7. Can you not see the irony of what you are writing on the "NON-MFC thread"? Get help, please. I'm concerned for you
  8. I'd like to see Juddy McVee and Rivers given lots of opportunities in the midfield for the next 5-6 weeks. I see McVee as criminally underrated for his decision making, positioning, awareness and disposal. I'd almost go so far as to say he's the most talented player in our current 'best 22'. Rivers gives our midfield dash and, like McVee, is a better kick than Viney, Oliver or Gawn Depth through the midfield: Kossie, ANB and Sparrow Back 6 of May, Rick, Tmac, Howes, Bowey, and Salo. Perhaps it's AMW time???
  9. But can we find any takers?
  10. Yes, Goody hung his hat on that earlier in the season. Kinda like putting it all on the line And we sit 11th. Somethings not right, Dazzle.
  11. And the tackle on Crisp on the boundary just before WHE's releasing kick. He just let go of it in the tackle with prior opp. You could hear the commentators groan when it wasn’t paid.
  12. Give it a rest, this is equally as tiresome. Consider putting WYL on ignore or use the report function. It's a footy forum, not War and Peace
  13. Can you imaging the anger of Crom supporters last year, missing out on finals because of an obvious, stupidly wrong goal umpire's decision?
  14. I honestly cannot understand how that Norf mark wasn't paid 50m in the last 2 mins. Two guys three steps over the mark. Clear as day. The sort of vision the umpires boss would use to explain giving a 50. Clarko will go bizerk at the AFL over the umpires. It's too easy to say that Norf only have themselves to blame, but had the correct decision been paid, we would be congratulating them on a victory well deserved. The difference was a wrong decision by an umpire.
  15. God I hate Collingwood. Last 2 mins: 50m not paid Daicos htb 100% not paid Manufactured result
  16. Perfect opportunity to run McVee and Rivers through the midfield But no, we'll stick with Billings and Sparrow 😕
  17. The lesson for us is don't dismiss the bad boys at the top end of the draft
  18. Hopefully someone has some goat photos
  19. Interesting that Gil looks likely to get the CEO gig at Tabcorp. Actually, not interesting. It was expected, after how dependent on gambling the AFL has become
  20. My guess of cap space in 2025: Brayshaw $750k, BBB $450k, Tmac $450k, Milkshake $350k, Petty 😳 $550k (will get $900k at Crom) I don't think these figures are unreasonable, given the average player contract last year was $450k. In 2 years add Max and Maysie to that list. If we aren't going hard for a bunch of guys such as LDU, Battle, Moyle and Logan McDonald, then IMO we are in significant trouble. Our current list cannot take us to a flag. Why is it that Essendon, Richmond, Saints and Pies can attract quality players but our club has lost its shine? I really hope players considering us do not talk to Brody Grundy before choosing a new club.
  21. You do realise we beat Collingwood in last years QB match?
