In the prelim both McRae and Kingsley coached from ground level. They are both doing alright at coaching.

 

As for replacing Yze,  what about Mick Stinear? He seems to be able to coach.

You beat me to it. Stinear def worth looking at

Any likelihood that we trade next years 1st tied to freo (assuming we still have our first next year. I can’t keep up) and 13 to move up in this year’s draft?

Could it be that they are taking a really safe approach to the players mingling with supporters as Covid is still out there in the community.

Good point longsuffering. With life starting to feel normal again I forget this

It’s just struck me that we haven’t had the traditional family day this year. I guess they thought the December event was it. Seems strange to miss an opportunity to sell more memberships and merch 

Any word on why kk is in rehab?

Very interesting. Will they show afl in an iPhone format like afl live or will it be full screen 

The thing that typifies harmes improvement is how many times he is breaking tackles. 12 months ago he was the guy repeatedly getting caught and pinged for holding the ball. Just seems to be so much stronger on his feet

Read it and I think it’s quite a sensible article. Looks at the story in good detail and takes a swipe at the obvious reactions like frawleys but he wasn’t Robinson Caruso. Call her what you will but she is an investigative journalist who actually still, you know, investigates. A rare breed these days

no, martin was always going pick 1 to gc17

we were choosing btw hogan and kelly

Well there you go. Didn't know that. Apologies 

Just now, DemonAndrew said:

don't forget, it was a toss-up at the time as to whether it was hogan or kelly we were taking in the mini-draft

I think that was jack Martin

Confirmation here that we've offered a second round draft pick from next year for Hibberd. Essendon wants a second round this year.

I'd get it done and be thankful they don't ask for more with that pick continuing to slide. Dee's now need to get creative to get back into the earlier stages of the draft

Dodoro said on Trade Radio today that he thought our pick 26 was fair for Hibberd. So expect this deal to be done first thing Monday morning.  

 

Hibberd can get stuck into pre pre-season training straight away under the guidance of MIsso. 

Just heard that too. Interesting that rob KERR head of footy department was on SEN this morning and didn't seem to think that 26 alone was enough and that a deal was a little way off. They need to get themselves on the same page at the bombres

I actually think he's done, which is worth nothing as it's not a medical opinion, but to me he is a race horse with a busted leg. Its almost like he is too strong and will never heal well enough to bare all the force he puts on the bone when he plays. 

I reckoned he played under significant duress in last years finals campaign. Not just the last game where it was confirmed he played with a broken leg (and starred mind you). I reckon he was hurt earlier than that. After the break this time around I think they would have wrapped in cotton wool as the season mattered for nought. He will be cherry ripe for next year and I for one would salivate at the prospect of a player of his caliber to come to mfc. In saying all that I doubt it will ever happen

It seems like his fitness base is pretty low and will be on a very modified program but does anyone know of his ankle issue are done and is he able to start training immediately?

Brett Anderson just tweeted me back an emphatic Oliver to go at 3/4 to Dee's. Looks like that ones a given. Question now turns to 7

Has anyone been able to find any highlights on him. I know he's been injured but looks to have played a good game for afl squad team against northern blues earlier in the year

He had robbo on the ropes. Robbo said that if Andy lovells son is good enough then they should take him. I tweeted robbo to let him know the [censored] had been taken and as yet I have had no response

From one of andys best mates they are not related as far as he is aware. Like the above poster mentioned its very common name down that way.

Bombers fans call him milkshake. That's all I need to hear. Move on nothing to see here. Couldn't bear it based only on the fact that his nickname is milkshake

Not a bad right up here. Wouldn't be opposed to a late pick.

we might have the mantra as the mt.bulla fans but better that then being seen as a collingwood centerlink bum. nothing wrong with a bit of class i love it.

agreed, the stigma is not going away anytime soon so lets embrace it.

i kinda like the idea. every kid growing up playing cricket wants to one day own a baggy green cap. it would be great if the tradition can grow some legs quickly and one day it would be evry kids dream playing auskick to be able to one day own a baggy blazer. this would be dependant on these kids seeing the boys up on stage one september with the premiership year embroidered on the pocket.

it makes me tingle with excitement.
