...and she's been great this season so far.

If we had a static list I would agree with him. There is only one or two years left in this list, we may even have passed that threshold now. That's why this draft/trade period is crucial to us and has the capacity to keep us up for longer. Luckily we have a good hand this year. Over to list management, and hope they get it right.

Let's hope Adams becomes next years McVee...

I love Dazzles passion and insight, don't always agree but that's life.

Thanks 'joeboy' for another great season.... The first & sometimes only post I go to after every game.

You can, but not all in the one area of the ground...particularly where we run thin anyway. The luck ran against us as soon as Petty went down & Fritsch never had a good run at it all year. Don't think that his foot injuries didn't take a toll on his accuracy either. He missed shots he would kick with his eyes closed normally.

Seriously here are some challenged people on this site... The team was undermanned and gave it everything...if you can't see that you know nothing. Signing off for AFL season 2023.

Rubbish comment mate. A brilliant coaching performance against the odds tonight. If it weren't for a few dodgy decisions we had this.

Personal opinion is that the specie will be gone from the game. ...and the game will be very similar to Gaelic Football with no tackling or maybe limited tackling. Marking with knees lifted will be outlawed. Whether it will be a spectacle worth watching, who knows. Times change, things change. It's been a great game but is it worth the damage to the players?

Having a healthy list is key to winning big finals... Don't kid yourself, we are really up against it tonight and if we pull through it will be a mighty effort.

Me neither...all the talk of lanes. I just can't see Maynard in the lane of the ball. If it was a legit smother attempt wouldn't this be his lane. If you watch Kossie here he jumps at the ball. H-E moves to his right as Gus did...unfortunately into Maynards lane which was away from the ball. pickettsmother.mp4.7a23d14aec3e0fc9e9a68acfcc1612c4.mp4

Where do the players that miss get match practice? I'm really interested to see Mackin but how does she learn the game?

I really hope Brayshaw of the JB variety has severed all ties with McGuire and co... The family should have nothing to do with these cretins...

If he wasn't such a dumb ar.. I guess he could be a villain...

Jack Darling Mark II????

I think it's been a brilliant coaching & playing exhibition against the odds this season. A lot has gone against us yet we still finished top 4. Will need a rabbit out of the hat from Goody and the FD to push much further but it's not beyond this team.

Where in the f... did he think the ball was coming from.

I must admit, I would be quietly happy to see Howe do a serious hammy at training. ...and Maynard take out Moore in a smothering drill.

I heard that we have a closed training session tomorrow. Practicing the new AFL smothering technique.

.

It actually won't at all 'Earl', if anything it makes matters worse for them. Any legal action will make the point that the AFL rules weren't strong enough to protect the ball player. This decision will come back and bite hard. I don't think they have any option but to appeal.

I seriously hope he breaks down at training, I could wish worse but that will be enough...

He seemed to have plenty of time to turn his body and bump. If he had no time to react he would have run straight into Gus with his arms up in the air trying to smother.

Interesting discussion also on 360 with Scott & Lyon. Whilst neither directly threw Maynard under the bus you could read between some pretty pointed lines. AS for the comments made by many about him not having time to react...Lyon made a comment along the lines of have you seen how quick these guys make decisions in tight spaces these days. Scott commented that if it was at training do you think he would have knocked out his teammate.

Is that more games than Cornes??? I think Mundy wins.
