  1. As much as it pains me to acknowledge, I don't think the 6 month clause is retrospective
  2. After last week it was always going to rely upon the old heave ho. Cant see them winning either. We are our own worst enemy
  3. Jacko will play in the first final ?
  4. Agreed, and good disposal generally. I thought he was starting to develop and could become Nev 2.0 One of these guys that would benefit from 6-10 games in a row to cement a spot
  5. Surprisingly, May has also taken smalls. Cameron is his bunny
  6. Couldn't have happened to an uglier head!

    One swallow

    I thought this was about Norf? That's one hell of a clearout. I guess with lists apparently shrinking they've got in early. Is Daw worth considering if he's in the right space for a restart?
  9. I believe the AFL 'integrity' officer put an end to this kind of blatant draft tampering several years ago. I think it would've been possible for WB to trade this years 1st pick last year, but not this year, if that makes sense. Doesn't pass the sniff test
  10. If Adelaide or Norf bid for him WB will need to use up 2400 points (3000 - 20%) which would be their first pick (now 12) and probably their next 2 picks. Or they could go into deficit into 2021, like GWS have this year. That's fair whack for getting pick 1, especially if he does a 'McCartin'. Eggs on one basket, and all that
  11. He's supposed to be shown the door if we don't beat Ess. Not sure if thats a good or bad thing
  12. Thanks Wise. I'll renew for next year, just not sure if I can do the whole hog again or this time only the bacon BBO might have to put off some Manor staff to pay for his. He takes up 2 seats
  13. Heineken zero is a lovely drop!

    Picket, do you realise there's a draft and trade board with a Polec thread?
  15. Indeed. Love to see him kick 8 and the heave ho to win comfortably! He could be the gift that keeps on giving to the MFC!!!
  16. Statistics: 60% of the time they're right every time (according to the anchorman)
  17. If he is on the list I hope its the base rate with games incentives. Unfortunately he needs to know he would be purely depth. Is that any way to limp over the line to 300? And I don't doubt that milestone plus Neita's 306 would be in the back of his mind Should list sizes shrink (which is not a given) i hope he makes the decision for us and retires. Forcing him out would once again be terrible for the club Excellent career, an all time favourite, but its time to go.
  18. While you're at it, can I slip you my two to pay?!!! ? I acknowledge that the GFG is notional and not a cost within my dues. I am very pleased there was a freeze for 2021 However, for me the live game experience is the biggest single reason I buy 2 memberships. Otherwise I'd just donate the money. I have a good seat L2 Northern stand that isn't cheap but has an excellent view and great atmosphere (aside from @Bitter but optimistic being there) I'm disappointed that there have been no crowd games at the G this year. I've come to the realisation this may not change for much of 2021. Will I continue my 20+ year membership next year given this scenario? Probably, but other things in life will need to take a hit, which atm is tough. One thing I know for sure, the Neeld years nearly killed my love for the Dees. We can't go back to that level of performance. It made watching games live a really poor experience. There are other competing interests in life of greater value than this. The team needs to be more competitive for supporters to buy memberships. It's pretty simple really.
  19. Shows why many take champion data with a large grain of salt
  20. No one questions Jesse's ability. IMO the issues are his body and his motivation, particularly the latter. I hope he continues to improve over summer and comes back in good shape for 2021 But I don't want him back with us. Its simply risk/reward. I want a tall forward line of Weid, Jacko, and a fit Petty in 2021. Depth Brown. Note: no Tmac

    Not 2021 first rounder for 2020 2nd rounder. That's terrible
  22. Have you emailed the club stating this, od? It's probably good for them to hear the concerns of members
  23. Good point about the FA compo, Luce. Hawthorn's #22 might end up in the 30s Kozzie and Rivers look even better value!
  24. Viney is a FA. He doesn't need a trade
  25. Is he available for this year's draft?
