Jaded No More

Brisbane fans booing Zorko is funny.

My favorite footy photo of all time.

Defense is non existent in this game. Horrible.

Let’s go Brisbane.

Watch him kick 13 tomorrow

Hibbo is a massive loss if he doesn’t get up. A perfect match up for Papley.

I think they have every right to be confident. They are no more delusional than some on Demonland who have suggested the game will be over by half time and we win by 10 goals. 2022 is not 2021.

Great omen. Same thing happened last year.

Clarry was also an average kick. He goes alright now I suppose.

Joel Smith makes the most sense from a versatility point of view as the sub, because if we lose a tall we are stuffed, particularly if we lose a defender. But there is no doubt that Dunstan, Bowey, Chandler and Bedford are in much better form, have been pushing their case at Casey and deserve a chance. Bowey is arguably a best 22 player anyway, so he will most likely be the sub, especially if we are worried that Salem is not 100%

Terrible news for JJ. Missed out last year and played every game this year only to end up as the sub and now with a 4 week injury. Absolutely sucks.

The same score line next Friday would be great.

Boooo

Hibbo has a 2(?) year old daughter.

I believe Ed is on a self imposed media ban 🤣

I don't disagree, but if he wins another flag he might decide that he is done. He did have a niggling calf injury earlier this year which kept him out for almost half a year. If he wants to go again I would be happy to give him another 1 year deal. But we have to keep the list ticking over. We need to make minimum 3 list changes, and it's getting harder and harder to pick the 3. I also think it is a big miss not to let Jason Taylor work his magic in the draft. He can do some great things with later picks. I don't want to keep holding on to players who are NQR. I prefer to take a punt on a Taylor special in the second and third rounds. I guess a lot depends on what happens with Jackson, as his departure might turn into 2 early picks, or it might turn into pick and a player, or we might on trade the picks we get for him for another player or try to drop down the draft order if we think there is someone we want.

Baker will get delisted. Rosman delisted with a potential re-rookie. Hunt will sign on unless he is offered a better deal elsewhere. I think both Hibbo and Melksham will retire, especially if we win the flag. Jackson is 99.9% gone. Bedford is also out of contract I believe. Also just because someone is signed, doesn't mean we can't trade them. I wouldn't begrudge Chandler if he went elsewhere since he can't get a regular gig and he is good enough to play AFL.

Another job well done by the selectors, trying to squeeze in 19 inside mids into a 22 man squad. Wingers do not exist.

True, but he is also a cheap backup option with plenty of versatility. I don't think we would get more out of a rookie pick.

I heard that too. I wish they told us if it was an open session, and more importantly what time it was on.

He does not like dogs. No chance.

My puppy barked at a magpie today. Definitely means Pies don’t win the flag if you ask me.

To the barn?

Hawkins captain? He is not even the captain of his own team. Wtf? This is a Geelong [censored] fest. Vomit.
