2024 All Australian Squad
I thought it was pretty much spot on. Windsor with only one vote was disappointing but fair with the other players in front of him. Lawson Humphries was fantastic in nearly every single game he played. The Cats recruitment team have done it again. My envy is overloading.

Farewell Adam Tomlinson
Hopeful we would get a third round compensation pick. Am I dreaming?

Congratulations Jesse - Coleman Medalist.
Very happy for him. Really wish he could have stayed. I know we are meant to Boo players who left, but I still love most of ours.

Caleb Daniel
I wouldn't. There is a reason he isn't getting a regular game. His best years were really good, but he is one of the first the fans turn on when things aren't going great and for good reason. He doesn't have the ability to turn a losing game around. Think about how angry are getting on here with Fritsch defensive efforts in the forward line. Now imagine that in the backline. I would much rather have Bowey over Daniel long term. Definitely not both of them.

Jack Viney Extends Contract Until 2028
You can have a favourite player and also think long term for the club. I don't know the details of payments. But I don't think Jack will be in the seniors in his final years of the contract and think it's a mistake giving them to him this far out. He plays his best as an inside midfielder and he isn't able to play another position. I didn't think Buddy would play out his 9 year contract at the Swans and was wrong about that and hope I'm not correct here.

Jack Viney Extends Contract Until 2028
Exactly. We needed to offer Brown the big contract to get him across and that paid off. Most of us knew the last year would be a VFL year or injury list for Brown when we signed the contract. I would have preferred we had another youngster in the list instead of extending Schache. He would be on stuff all player payment though.

Jack Viney Extends Contract Until 2028
I love Jack. He's been a favourite for years. I'm glad he is getting looked after and will be a 1 club player. I'm with Deespencer though. That's a huge extension for an older player and in my opinion a bad list management decision. Without knowing the details of the contract it's hard to judge. Jack is a great player to have around the club and today is a day to celebrate after a media [censored] storm this week.

Andrew McQualter - Appointed coach of the West Coast Eagles
It's very difficult to assess from the outside. Has any player come out and said anything positive about him during the year? Sam Mitchell was absolutely adored by the West Coast players during his time there. Likewise Choco gets mentioned many times by our players in podcasts and interviews. I haven't heard anyone mention anything about him at all.

Trade Targets
There is too much smoke around this one to not have a bit of embers going. Houston would be great. I just don't want to pay the required trade price. ANB trade might soften this, but I would much rather go heavily to the draft with any available picks and pick up a free agent than trade for Houston.
