Sounds like the boy would fit right in then 👍

Bingo

Interesting listen. When asked about some names for wet toasts picks 1 & 2, Ablett through up Sharp & Lindsay as options… mock drafts I’ve seen have both boys around 8-12 range. Doesn’t subscribe to talk about a weak draft.

This crop really that thin DS? Look I know nothing about this years draft but it’s definitely the quietest build up to one that I can remember in years! Any phantom drafts out yet?

Have these type of thoughts all the time. Imagine his set shot from the corner 50 @ the city end in the SF against Carlton late in the 4th doesn’t get touched on the line by skip. Sighhhh

Awesome to hear rjay. You mind telling us what you saw? Haven’t seen any of the game. Thanks

Which two clowns voted they hoped pies win the flag? Not coping that. Name & shame @Demonland 👿👿

I hear you Gator, & no doubt he’s got a bit to work on, just as many other 19 y/o’s. But I tend to see it as an exciting part of his development. I reckon he’ll eventually fill that heart & soul void that’s been missed since Gus. A void that’s become noticeably wider with each passing game.

& this is what gets me most excited about this kids prospects. Wait until he starts clunking those mark inside F50 because he’s aerial ability is gonna be a serious weapon for us when resting him forward.

Lego Langford rated the 25’ champion data rising star winner via SEN ahead of Reid & Curtin. Rated #65 in the comp. Best rating by a first year player.

Couldn’t think of anything worse. Can we please stop with this May to play forward rubbish? IMO he’s either playing for another club or playing for Casey. Love May, but she’s all over mate.

And thats the most frustrating thing. The confidence that those close wins would’ve given the boys would've been huge. Gotta get these boys believing again.

But wasn’t all our draft talk back then about drafting players that are super competitive? Draftees that are winners. Boys that hate to lose etc? Which I think we nailed. Because they were exactly that & because of course 21’. But they don’t have that same killer instinct anymore. You can see the confusion & fear in which these boys are playing with. When the going gets tough thats when your stocks rise or fall. Does a new coach fix this? Can he? I bloody well hope so.

Post back-2-back straight sets finals exits, in particular, the debilitating 23 finals campaign, has been solidified, at least in my mind, that this group is suffering from Footballers PTSD. More so exacerbated when we come up against Collingwood & Carlton. The overwhelming crowd, the noise, the energy. No doubt it’s become a burden on this group. I have to admit, the 23 finals campaign has even somewhat scarred me as a supporter, so you can only imagine how the players feel about it all. It’s as if they knew that series was their chance for another flag & they blew it - Now their belief is completely shot & they just can’t deal with the pressure that comes with it all to perform & deliver in the big games, in the big moments against the big clubs. These blokes are battling serious trauma & i dont believe they’re strong enough mentally to overcome this… not at least at the Melbourne Football Club. After last night, I’ve made peace with the realisation that some of our most decorated players should move on, even for their own footballing sake. Sad, but I just can’t see these guys recovering. We need a clean out. Thoughts?

Crazy how I’ve just come to expect a loss at centre bounce these days lol We don’t win CBC’s anymore

Why did I even come here…

Crazy isn’t it. Was pretty pumped for this year too, but it was all over after a month. Forgot how much life sucks when your footy teams [censored]

Don’t get all this talk about getting Judd into the midfield. He’s not a midfielder.

JVR out???? No chance

Kalani going to pick the Dee’s according to [censored] morris via SEN

No not surprised at all Ghosty. He had always been my choice for next skip, but I’m now having some real doubts about his body holding up. Also he’s form / injury’s are making him look like a 34 year old out there… he’s only 30 by start of next season. 26’ is a huge year for Rick. If he plays every game next year then you’d say he’s gotten his body / form right. & that would also make him the obvious candidate imo to be next skip.

Hmmm… Dan Curtin ayy 😐

If that was petracca he would’ve got nothing. Free kick for high (incidental) but thats it. Carry on. The adjudicating of this game is really messing with my love for it.
