We play Fremantle in Round 1. How did they go against WCE today?

Disappointed that no news regarding Aaron Nietschke has come out of the club in the 24 hours since he came off the ground in yesterday’s practice match. Even if they’re waiting on the result of scans, a brief statement on the initial medical viewpoint on his situation would suffice.

The best player to ever represent the club.

But what of hwfua’s old man? Is he still on $100kpa as an apprentice in the recruiting department at Blacktown?

Training with the Tigers according to the Herald Sun.

I thought Taylor indicated Smith might be invited and that Woewodin was a likely father-son for next year. There’s a list of invitees on the Herald Sun site:-

That said and in light of the fact that Tom has now shed 5kg since the end of the 2020 season and is training to lose more weight, it wouldn’t hurt to seek out a strong bodied big man among the six potential SSP invitees.

Hawks fan I know reckons that they’re going to get both Phillips and Treloar.

He’s the player who derailed our season before it started with his positive test. Obviously not intentional but didn’t he go out on house inspections which were disallowed?

The AFL and the AFLPA both need to take a long hard look at themselves over the issue of player numbers. Their failure to agree on a formula for 2021 is having an impact on club decision making and there’s every chance that this is going to result in adverse outcomes for all of the game’s stakeholders. This was entirely foreseeable and, given the job losses already suffered on the coaching and administrative side, it’s utterly shameful.

Why didn’t we think of using Kyle to recruit his brother?

Disappointed with tonight’s attendance number which must be the lowest in 100 years. Let’s hope Dan decides to open up the state in time for next year’s grannie.

Who was the recruiter who picked Scully and Trengove ahead of Martin?

Taberner out - all is lost!

Isn’t he the player who had heart issues?

Displays like the one tonight are not good for the game. Found myself dripping off to sleep from half way through the third quarter. Only just woke up.

I thought Frost was dropped a few weeks ago never to come back and couldn’t remember much about him playing the Dogs. So I checked - did play but he only got 6 touches.

With today’s crushing loss, the Saints appear to be the most vulnerable of the teams in the eight because they have a tough draw ahead of them. In the end, we need to string some wins together including some big scalps. I’m taking things one week at a time of course, but a win against St Kilda would be handy. That’s the thing about 2020 - you don’t know how the final draw is going to pan out.

You’ve got it wrong. There’s no problem with having opinions - yabbering on endlessly with the same opinion is the issue.

Lachie Neale can wrap up his Brownlow right now.

At our best, we might have challenged Richmond.

Hard to believe that this round started on Thursday night and between then and now, they’ve announced 1,200 new cases of COVID-19 in Victoria.

Bet Harley’s snagged a few.
