I would be happy to see academies & father son go... It's time for an un-compromised draft. FS should have been shut down when the AFL came into being. As for Northern state & minority group development...the AFL should take the responsibility for this.

I don't have a clue how this will play out. ....but I'm loving that Maxy and Goody are muddying the waters so to speak. I'm also loving that Freo are really sooking it up. It was ok for them to target Kozzy... Well fellas what's good for the goose...

It's a good question...

It's mainly the one with the headband. Think he must have grown up a C/Wood supporter. shocking. ...and watching on Fox Howey is barracking for C/Wood. I've just turned off.

Part of that could be on him. I remember an interview where he said he wasn't a leading type of player. It rang alarm bells for me then & it's become an issue now.

.

That's a pretty good summation of how I see him. I really want him to break through as he's got some great attributes. ...but he has a bit of work to do.

Stats may not lie but interpretations of them invariably do...

I don't know why you would bother watching them 'norm'... If I see McGuires on my screen I quickly turn it off.

...but he hasn't been doing it. We need to get him back to that, we would all love to see that.

The media have the memory of a fish 'dazz', they react on what is in front of them at the time and don't think past it. The club have to look at the longer game. Lets see how this pans out over the season. It just might be a master stroke.

I suspect this is as much about Clarry as it is about the tagging role. He's been struggling on & off field. Playing as a tagger takes away the pressures of being a prime mover, your job is simplified. I'm happy for him to do this if it can help us get back the old Clarry. Think the longer term game here.

'Adam', I always say that I know the 10 Hawthorn supporters personally and a couple of them have since passed on. The rest are all fair-weather, band wagoners...

The bandwagoners...

Windsor - limited preseason base He'll be ok but was gassed at the end and at his age missing key parts of preseason is going to do that to you.

...but we do have to lower our tackles.

I reckon Harmes was an own goal...a mistake moving him on.

I'll be the odd man out here, but when he was in the ruck was when Freo looked most dangerous. He really opens the game up for the mids. As I said previously, I would love him back...

I'm pretty much the same...I didn't mind that show SEN have on Saturdays around lunch time but it's gone off. Plus with Tom Morris on it, well, I just don't bother anymore. No pre match, no during match breaks (I go and do other things and come back for the bounce), the analysis just doesn't exist any longer...so many heads working in football media and such a poor offering. I get my news & footy fix on Demonland...

Agree mate...I don't watch any of it now. I listen to a lot less radio coverage and if we all did that imagine how Kane and co would go trying to get a pay check. Time to shut the noise down. I find it adds nothing (in fact it detracts) to my quality of life.

I would love him back. ...the icing on the cake would be Kozzie staying. I mean why would he want to go to Freo anyway.

I think you just answered the question.

He is dreadful...but so iare most of the other so called expert commentators. They just barrack, pump players up and drag teams down and tell us what we already know. How about some insight into thregame. Zac Merret is a star. I didn't know that. Thanks Kingy that was great insight mate. What the hell was the decision made by the official into the ear piece of the umpire by the way?

Suspension are for games not weeks. He got a 4 game ban. ...but Lyon's crack at the AFL for an amateur hour reserves comp was more than valid.
