A bit like Danger but with good foot skills.

Reading between some not too subtle lines I think they're trying to get rid of him 'Mach'... Probably for some of the reasons you've mentioned above. I that case would we be interested, not sure he's a Goody type.

Surely ladder position is an indication of form? I won't be surprised if we drop one but astonished is a bit of a stretch. With 3 minutes to go... You've got a bit of Kane Cornes about you 'Jimmy'...

That's a very odd statement 'Jimmy'. I'm not a gambler but even I know that odds reflect many things, form line being the big one. I mean ladder position is a simple reflection of form line.

It beggars belief... A similar situation last year was ticked off by the AFL. The ground has shifted significantly. I would say the AFL were late to the party last year. ...but Port haven't bothered to show up this time. A massive miscalculation at best.

Thanks 'Jaded', that's my first and only big laugh of the day...

I thought it was a good counter move, well worth a try.

He didn't really have the right match up today with the Tiges set up. A smart move to bring Smith on in the 2nd half.

That's mean...

They pushed him up forward in the 3rd Q 'bin'...it took Hodgey until nearly half way into the last Q to notice it. About the time he kicked his first goal. I've always said our expert comments people are the best in the business and really keep us informed.

The cream on top will be if WC can knock them over...and it is possible. It will be WC's GF.

...be interesting to know who. There is always a lot of media hype around potential number 1 picks, I wonder if real recruiters (the bosses) are this hyped.

It always is...

Maybe, but this is food for thought.... The number 1 pick is not always the best in the year and I would say none of these are generational talents. Hodge for leadership maybe. https://www.espn.com.au/afl/story/_/id/30390521/ranking-every-no-1-afl-draft-pick-2000

Scully was the best they'd ever seen as well. Martin went at pick 3... Never believe the hype.

He would be the ideal candidate for the Tiges job... If they give him the support Hardwick got then it will be a prime gig. If they revert to the old pre Peggy/Gale Tiges then it will be fraught. Good luck Adem...

David King wrote Geelong off completely early in the season...then he got back on board, now who knows. They were all writing the Tiges on...now saying no chance of a flag. It's the entertainment business any relation to serious analysis is only in passing.

I reckon Spargo has been really poor this season and wouldn't have him back in. His precision kicking is off the boil and that's his only real weapon.

The VFA died the day that the VFL/AFL started to play Sunday footy... There was no longer a point of difference. The current VFL competition is a bit of a dogs breakfast but I guess at least some of the traditional VFA clubs are still able to hang in there. The old VFA was done and dusted.... Local footy clubs were throwing the big $'s around and they couldn't compete. The competition had lost it's shine and it's revenue base. The current VFL is probably the most cost efficient model at the moment being able to piggy back on local club infrastructure... You can't compare WAFL & SANFL competitions as they kept their clubs, there is a strong bond. Our big clubs formed the foundation of the AFL so we're left with what we have... A dogs breakfast yep, but not sure of a what a better solution looks like...

Sub is made for Joel.... He is the perfect sub. Can play forward or back, short or tall. Will make an impact over short periods...

I don't think there is a place for him, form has been average and he gets exposed.

We would be looking for someone like Tomlinson. I think that's why he stays.

A half back called Hardeman... Memories What does the kid play like and is he a relation?

Daisy... Only joking 'Walking'

Adams?
