The heart beats true

Do they not remember how he left them?He completely torched that club, and it’s list. Listening to him talk over the last couple of years I’ve come to the conclusion that what he had worked once, but won’t cut it in the contemporary AFL. Players need more engagement. He strikes me as being very autocratic.

The corporate governance of most AFL clubs is an absolute joke. They bang on about culture and respect and then blindside the most important part of their culture, and get rid of players without warning (ask OMeara or Grundy how they feel). It’s rubbish.

To be fair on a bad day on the Monash it’s a 14 hour drive from Casey to Geelong.

All reserved seat memberships already have a wait list. :(

Does Tim Lamb say they don’t discuss contract lengths in this interview? Wonder why?

I'm so confused. I read the trade and draft boards every day and I was sure we were getting screwed, we never stand up for ourselves, and Tim Lamb was on shaky ground? It's almost like you can't evaluate the trade period until it's over.

Does the AFL not believe in daylight savings? A lot of action after 7:30.

That it’s only right 50% of the time?

Top 10 in the B &F 5 years running. 170 games of experience. The window is open, and we are filling needs for 2023-25. Love it.

Hold on. I’ve never been asked this. What sort of work you doing Nev? Or should I ask what’s your Onlyfans?

Get any word at all about Hunter @Grand New Flag?

How does today work? Isn’t there some kind of shambolic, manufactured deadline to try and turn it into a TV event?

Kicking is the huge issue.

I won’t know how I feel about this until Brodie’s mum makes her statement via Facebook.

I’m not sold on this culturally. It’s reported Hawkins is on 300k in 2023. Wonder how he feels knowing a bloke that’s probably behind Menegola (who couldn’t get a game in the finals) is getting paid twice that to play in the VFL? It is a culture test for sure.

Gawn’s contract may well have been loaded differently. I don’t think you can ever truly evaluate the list management of a club unless they are having a fire sale, or unable to sign key players. To be fair we have a lot of our best players on long terms contracts. We would have known Jackson’s value and offered him an amazing deal. He wanted to go home so we spent that money on a dual All Australian. To be in the position to do that reflects well I reckon.

I just couldn’t handle it. Every time he makes a mistake hearing supporters yell ‘that’s trash binns’. Also, it’s not really on brand. Is there a ‘Slopes’, ‘Herringbone’ or ‘Roquefort’ available?

What about contacting supporters? Maybe he doesn’t have my email? [email protected]

Or we could just wait. Looks like we have one deal we need to get done, and this is it. If it doesn’t get done I’d say Collingwood are over their TPP. That is a world of pain. Just wait.

Hopefully we lost that hand in order to win the game. Let’s see what happens now.

Why do people think a great player automatically makes a great coach? Have you not worked with people who have extraordinary craft or technical skills but couldn’t coordinate others, let alone inspire them? It’s not a playing/coach role. It’s a very technical job that also requires great people skills, a passion for working with young people, and a lot of media training.

Don’t understand why those slagging off JHF for wanting a trade aren’t going hard after Bruhn for the same thing. At least JHF pretended he wanted to be there. Bruhn had a sook from day one. Come to think of it he’s a perfect fit for Geelong.

Is he not slightly small for a key forward in the AFL these days? Seems like the keys are all 197-205. Don’t think it matters. We aren’t getting near him unless we trade out something huge and get a top 3 pick.

Neither of those kids are going to do much damage in the next couple of years. Henry’s goal kicking was a huge issue in a couple of games this year, and Bruhn’s done nothing to date. Footy journalists are worse than some Demonlanders. They assume the last game they saw is the status quo. Let’s just see how the cats go if things don’t go to plan next year. A third of their side will be near the end. If it gets hard they might not have the fire left.
