Do we actually have any facts available about the appointment to make a considered determination on the nature of the appointment? Asking for my friend.

We're making a massive assumption that they'll even be permitted to participate in the 2025 draft.

Pedo - you legend.

Wood love to c him get to 250 games.

Exactly. Carltank have already ordered x-large paper bags for the 2026 season.

Amazon Prime will snap up for a cool billion a year over 6 years.

The cost of living crisis is biting us all it seems.

Regarding Bob Murphy . . . hope he never coaches our midfield. A fart in the quarter time huddle is as risky as a Jack Viney handball in the backline. It could lead to a messy turnover.

Move on from what? I still haven't gotten over Jimmy running through the mark. And don't even start me on round 22, 1976.

Um . . . Parker is still in the top 300 players in the comp. You mean there's not a role in a side that finished well out of finals contention for that sort of a player who can play multiple roles? Judging Darling on his last two years at Wet Toast is ridiculous. Hudson would be battling to kick a goal with that mob. As a decoy for JVR, Disco, Jeffo Airoplane - he would have been fabulous.

I haven't the time right now to read the whole thread - but YTF we didn't chase Darling and Parker is totally beyond me. So many pluses and so few downsides to both of them.

Are we starting a grid iron team?

Not sure anyone is asking them to come at it.

That's called draft tampering and is accompanied by heavy sanctions if found guilty.

All good points @Macca. I must admit, I'm wondering why we didn't make a play for Jack Darling. Depending on price and cost, seems to me he could have taken some pressure off JVR and possibly even Jefferson Airplane if/when he's ready. (Cue moans and groans from the peanut gallery.)

Yes, i can imagine Petracca, Viney, Oliver, Rivers, Sparrow, Kozzie, Langdon, Windsor, Tholstrup and two picks inside the top 10 getting it in the centre and kicking straight down the throat of ???????? .....................

200k goes no where near keeping eyes on someone full-time. Start at $1,000,000 and work up from there.

At 'Land . . . We’re just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year.

Who's gettable at noon? Bont?

Imagine how strong the brand would have been had we not tripped on our own boot laces for the last 60 years.

Sheez . . . we're going to have a fair bit of salary cap space available with Nibbler, Kosi, Clayton, Trac and JV gone. We might be thinking of bringing in Nathan Ablett.

I'm really over people pointing fingers at the usual suspects: the media (those good folks just doing their job), the umpires (come on, we all know they’re perfect), the AFL (because they’re totally innocent), the Filth (Collingwood, obviously), the Club, ex-club legends, the *cul-cha*, Pork-barrel Park, the Government (they're always blamed for everything), injuries, the fitness team (surely they’re saints), the admin chaos . . . oh, and did I mention the umpires (again)? Here's where we *really* need to be focusing our attention for where the real vilians are hiding - in plain view. 1. Judas Iscariot – The original backstabber, pre-Facebook drama. 2. The person in the grassy knoll – Still dodging accusations like a pro. 3. Lindy Chamberlain – Blamed for a dingo’s diet plan. 4. Richard Nixon – The guy who made tape recordings go out of style. 5. Macbeth – Just couldn’t resist the whole “stab the king” trend. 6. Marie Antoinette – Accused of not sharing her cake recipe. 7. Bernie Madoff – A financial wizard, but not in a Harry Potter way. 8. King Henry VIII – Bad at marriages, good at decapitations. 9. George Pell – Accused of lots, cleared of some, still dodgy headlines. 10. Voldemort – Definitely allergic to love, and noses.

It would be handy if the CEO knew the premiership full forward's number I would have thought.

Oh Kate. Goodness gracious me.

What an awful speech from the pres. Weazel words.
