Norm Smith's Curse

Well I'm an office boy and a golfer and I tend to both worse when stressed and not comfortable haha

I'm very sceptical. I'm even sceptical we even made an initial play considering the sources that suggested it. Mail has been from my end Bucks by a country mile. The gravitus alone gets the job done.

Hold up the five year offer is from the dogs or the Dee's? Maybe I'm misinterpreting your post.

Sorry and respectfully but I know that is not accurate. Zero chance.

Are they though? Seems like we will get massive unders for a 33/34 year old who not that long ago was one of the few on our list that could single handedly win or turn games off his own bat.

May is one of the few players on our list who has won games or turned games completely 100% off his own bat. Whether his criticism and frustration is unwarranted at times, that is the best and truest form of leadership from a football perspective. There seems no upside here. At 34 we will probably get almost nothing in return.

When Simpson said that there has been unrest among the playing group, footage like this seems to align with that - as does the yelling and even pushing between leaders on field.

He got near it a lot so impacted more than he has. Think he will make it.

Tracc is far from his don't argue bullocking and like many his disposal in 2025 has been pretty ordinary.

We have worse. Last time McAdam played he insisted on trying to get behind his opponent, who was bigger than he was and then wasn't fast enough to keep up.

Don't worry in the AI world we got this! mays_100010.mp4

Jvr had a game of dropped marks and taps to opponents to their advantage. But you have to be near the ball to have an impact, even a questionable one.

Reminds me of the time Brent Moloney was photographed on the front cover of the Herald Sun full painted in red and blue before Queens birthday and another flogging. It is disappointing that even now after 2021 we do still allow ourselves to be ragdolled by pretend bullys.

Looked good in a side of great players at the peak of their game in 2021. Regularly has minimal impact 2025. Doubt we would get much at present.

Van rooyen - some crazy moments

But in all seriousness it's hard to say because quite a few on our list have underperformed this year and suggest their value may be lower. I doubt it will be wholesale cuts in the first year but who knows.

I didn't enjoy that enough at the time due to stress and still not trusting them. Good to see Harmsey there.

I wonder if the umpires would reduce the 2 million trees the pies get every time we play them if Bucks takes the job?

Kelly O was at a TAC cup game on the weekend with some impressive talent on display including Harry van Hattum and Kai Parker.

I just think its depressing that us Dee's fans are once again impatient of off season trades, changes and appointments. Was nice while it lasted. Thanks Goodie!

Just as an aside, I work for a Carlton Coterie Member and former player sponsor and he and his son told me about a week ago that he had firm intel that Carlton are after Daly and that it would happen in 2026. Personally he is the other coach that gets my interest. My only thought was after the fiascos of 2024 we might need someone who has wide afl community respect and gratitude if we are to plug the mid-age gap in our list. Mind you imagine the media hate if we had got Houston now...

Basically no one openly says they are applying because the perception is that one person has it in the bag.

Haha I initially read that as the Dee's being too risky.
