Jaded No More

What’s the right price for a player we don’t really have use for? We need to concentrate on getting a forward.

I think that's fair, but I also don't think we would trade him for peanuts unless we think he really is not up to it.

They've ditched the timeline graphic altogether I see. Wonderful.

You are probably right. They will also need a lot to go right with their aging list. If they can't get Guthry back to full fitness by September, they are cactus anyway.

No thanks. He can't kick. We have enough of those. Besides, Geelong get what Geelong want. Wonder if Bailey wants a hobby farm.

My biggest concern in all this is Geelong. I don't want them coming in hot. Even if they don't over take us inside the top 4, if they go on a run like they did last year, it could end as badly as last year did. I want the Lions to smash them this weekend and destroy their faux confidence.

Viney could also win it. This is probably Trac's best chance at a Brownlow tho. Clarry is not taking his votes, and if he keeps slotting goals for the remainder of the season, while getting those high possession numbers, he could absolutely win it.

It makes finishing 7th or 10th basically irrelevant. Why not just make it a top 10? or a top 6? Hell lets have North and West Coast compete to make finals. The pre finals bye is there because teams going into finals desperately need it. Nobody finishing 7th wants to play yet another game to try and win the flag. You are basically ensuring that a team outside the top 6 will never win a flag again.

FMD this is such short sighted garbage from the media, as per usual. At 32, the days of Gawn dominating 20+ games a season or rucking solo are gone. What if he does an ACL tomorrow? What if we win the flag this year and he calls time on his career? Grundy has a 4 year contract, and will be the #1 ruckman for probably 3 of those years. While Trac, Viney and Clarry are doing what they are doing, we have to have a strong ruckman working with them to keep our window open. The club knows that, which is why they targeted a top quality ruck to come into the mix. Everyone just needs to CALM THE F DOWN.

Stop ruining our game for the sake of a bit of extra revenue. FFS! Putrid idea that makes a complete mockery of the sides who worked their butt off to make the 8.

The media is out in full meltdown arseclown mode. Grundy will be traded. We will have to pay his contract. This is a disaster. The world is ending. Nathan Buckley knows what he’s talking about because he won so many flags. Damien Barrett is a real man and not in fact a cockroach. Sigh

FMD the AFL is starting to really pee me off. Stop making a mockery of our sport with your rubbish money grabbing gimmicks! Can’t wait for North v West Coast to fight it out for a finals spot 🙄

Jason Taylor is a genius Me if he ever thinks of leaving the club…

Well done Juddy. One of the highlights of 2023 so far!

Thank god you’re back

And Geelong have Brisbane away, Port in Geelong and Pies at the G. Let’s hope they drop all 3.

We need Clarry updates. Anyone?

I think if Daniher wasn’t such a diving cheat to begin with, you’d probably just give him the benefit of the doubt. But he is a joke of a footballer when it comes to exaggerating contact. It’s a blight on the game.

I hope Brisbane crush them, and that Port and Pies do the same. I have had just about enough of that walking retirement village.

I really rate Adelaide. They have a good list and are building nicely. They move the ball very quickly and have a plethora of excellent forwards. They will come out breathing fire as they’re under the pump to win to keep their finals hopes alive. They also have Burgess who knows a thing or two about us.

Good to have you back. Any words of wisdom re: Clarry?

Yes. They play each other in round 24, and Hawks still play Richmond, Saints and Dogs down in Tassie. They could definitely win 2-3 more games. Freo might only win one more, against West Coast.

Come on Hawks. You can still overtake Freo!

The quickest way to die is to be rude to my dog 😂 Pets are like children, except better.
