Pennant St Dee

You all missed the main one, playing kick to kick with your mates on the suburban grounds long after the game while your old man was knocking a few sherberts back in the clubrooms with his mates

The 2019 fixture for MFC will be attractive to any corporates tossing up sponsoring an AFL side

He's to slow upstairs in terms of decision making and IMO just not cut for AFL. Good solid WAFL/VFL/SANFL footballer

If we are good enough we make Top 4. I like the fixture Great free to air exposure Corporate dream MCG home games against 4 MCG powerhouses, 2 of our annual blockbusters. The flow on effect for sponsorship and attracting players is massive No room for complacency for the players with this fixture as the job needs to be on from the time we arrive back

Don't think they have to have the post Anzac games this year as there will be a minimum 8/9 day break for us and the Tigers, although they may look to a Friday night Pies v Tiger or Dees vs Bombers the post Anzac round. With us and Tigers playing on Anzac eve it would make more sense(which the AFL fixturing never uses) to have one of us and the Tigers playing Good Friday eve and one on Good Friday.

I want more midfield and bigger bodied depth so at 23 and 28 I want 2 from Ely Smith Luke Valente Xavier O'Halloran Xavier Duursma

No we haven't played the Eagles or Freo twice for many years. The last 3 years we've only played the Eagles once in Home and away and all in Perth

Tom Medhat is Freo next gen academy

It tells you nothing have a look at the natural build of both of them. Totally different Trac was 10kg heavier than De Goey when drafted. He doesn't need to lose any more weight IMO he isn't going to be an endurance athlete. He's at best as HFF with occasional short bursts through the middle.

Freo are home Round 1 so don't be surprised if we get them if the Collingwood request falls through

I think you can add Viney, Melk and Hibberd to the list OD. Certainly not the side we were pre Roos

Demonlanders need to realise if the troll is ignored and not fed it will go away. He or she must have an awfully sad life, trolling supporters pages for attention

Why are Demonlanders continuing to feed the troll. Staggers me

If they get 5 & 18 for Neale I expect the same for Hogan

Nephew

Pies did their due dilligence on Stevie J and subsequently pulled out of the trade based on the medical 2 years later Premiership and Norm Smith medallist, be nice for the same result

Best of luck Dom, very important player to us when he first came on board. Hope it works out for him at North

Beams contract was very much front ended, which is another reason why I think he should stay in Brissy. With regard to Hogan and May if we get May and give up pick 5 but keep pick 11 I'm happy. May will instantly improve our defence and yes Jesse will be missed but whilst it's a year early it is best to cash in now. For those expecting Freo to finish in the bottom 4 next season you just never know. Don't underestimate the massive home ground advantage and if they get a good run with injury they can easily win 10 to 12 games with Hogan B. Grey Hamling Wilson HB. Cerra Pearce S.Hill C. Banfield Fyfe B.Hill HF. Walters Hogan Mundy F. Grey Taberner Lobb R. Darcy, Blackeny, Brayshaw I/C Conca, Langdon, Hughes, Ryan, Ballantine, Sheridan, Cox Etc. Worst case scenario Jesse stays for another year when a lot can change

No pick 5 pick 32, Langdon and next years second rounder. Port and Adelaide are desperate to move up the draft for the SA boys Pick 5 goes to Port for 11 & 12 11 & the second Rounder goes to the Suns for May

Mundy was voted in when Pav moved on and my mail was the older players got that vote over the line. One year later as the list profile changed Fyfe was voted in and the players voted him in this year for a second time so he's doing something right. We shall see what happens next year

Nothing new just Bell changing the culture Bennell is an exceptional talent and that is why they kept him so long even his WAFL glimpses show how much class he oozes. On talent he is an absolute game breaker think Dangerfield bursting out of congestion with elite disposal (unlike Danger) Bell knows like many others that the kid won't change he is like Ben Cousins in terms of wanting to have a decent social life whilst actually training really hard. 30 years ago he'd have gotten away with it. I actually think it is this trait which has caused the recurrence of his soft tissue injuries. Cousins was a freak but Bennell just isn't the same An absolute no from me

Just to clarify re Fyfe he was voted in as captain by the playing group, like every club what supporters think of their captain has little relevance to the players

What I know from some what I consider good reliable sources Meth Coast have always had an eye on Hogan but this current move may have forced their hand a year early Fremantle as is well known have constantly been monitoring Hogan Dees have planned well as I said earlier in the thread the club has been in constant dialogue with Jesse over the season assessing his plans post 2019 as list managers prepare moving forward Tom Lynch was considered as part of a plan but we were ruled out early as the Hogan talks continued We were Gaffs club of choice but not prepared to pay what he (his manager)was asking. Has that changed after he saw how close he was last week and realised what it actually means to win one, I have no idea Hogans trip to Perth this week is nothing suspicious it was long planned he and mates are heading to Europe and may include Oktoberfest Suns want May out if he is not prepared to commit beyond next season. As they move to restart their culture and despite the bravado will take the best offer available (within reason)

There is Meth Coasts B&F is this weekend
