The heart beats true

The Brisbane crowd are very loud. As we know that’s the only indicator of whether a side will win.

I reckon we might take him and Grundy. Remember we’ll lose Jackson, Daw, and Mitch Brown. Not sure if Weed will look at options. We need someone to help at Casey, and a break in case of emergency option. But if we take him I would strongly suspect we aren’t showing any interest just yet. I think the club has its site on quality picks from Freo, and doesn’t want this muddying the waters just yet.

On behalf of all the snowflakes I just want to say thanks. As many of you know with summer coming it’s a tough time to be a snowflake, so this kind of acknowledgment is important. I feel seen ❄️

Season will start in March (when he’s 28), and regardless I believe the widely accepted standard for stating someone’s age is the age they are at the time of the statement. I just feel like people are saying this because they don’t want him, and it suits their narrative. But I like the logic if it allows me to say I’m 22 - because that was the age I was the last season of football I played. Sadly, my hairline disagrees, and my waistline concurs.

Kozzie’s girlfriend is the new Dogga’s mum. @Ethan Tremblay what are you hearing?

You know what they say… ’Where there’s smoke there’s someone blowing it’

Depends on the mate. Some of mine…

It’s like a destination wedding. It’s why the long term plan at Gosch’s Paddock is to put in a honeymoon suite and a swim up bar.

I hope Liam is ok. I really enjoyed seeing that he was at the game when we played in Alice.

Simple. Supporters don’t make enough noise at games.

No! My boyfriend loves them too 🤣

I heard it was a 9.3% drop off.

I’m hearing multiple reports that Melbourne is chasing Zac Butters. Doing everything they can to get him next year. Melbourne boy who wants to come home. Doesn’t love Adelaide - because, well, it’s Adelaide.

Wait, do we have Hooters in Australia? I’ve only been in America. Their buffalo wings are delicious.

I was thinking David Suzuki, so you’re probably closer.

Tina Turner? She’d want big money, and she’s getting on. Pass.

He’s been linked to the Dogs for 3 months. We either aren’t keen, or he was firm on getting to the Dogs. It is interesting to note how so many of these linked players are going exactly where the media said. Player managers obviously have loose lips.

I identify as a snowflake, but I also love a completely unsubstantiated and ridiculous rumour. I’m so confused what to do!

Doesn’t say much, which I suspect is a good thing. I hope in the long run the consistencies of our losses help to frame how we move forward. It’s an inescapable last half of the year for the footy department, so that’s a positive. There’s nowhere to hide from what happened, and how often it happened.

So… ‘Please don’t irrationally speculate about what’s going through a players head. Instead restrict all irrational speculation to what’s going through Tim Lamb’s head’?

In regards to his mum posting on Facebook I think 2 things: - Players and families are specifically told to avoid commenting on social media for obvious reasons. Did that conversation need to be public, when she would have been able to contact people directly? I don’t want to come down too hard but all that did was put her into a public conversation she’d be well advised to stay out of - for her, and her sons sake. Let’s not forget that this is her child effectively resigning from a job. How would you feel if your mum did that to you at work? - Her use of the phrase ‘coming home’ was interesting. I was raised to go and live my own life. 5 years ago Luke was aiming to play in the NBA. What did she think was going to happen then? I’m starting to buy into the theory that his mum had a lot of influence, and was quite vocal about it.

I’ll be barracking for the Swans. Geelong are always my least favourite team because they get such an arm chair ride to the finals, and every year I pray for them to finally fall off the cliff. Collingwood. No. Obviously. Brisbane have some players and a coach I like, but they are offset by Zorko and his pathetic attempts to manage his reputation after he clearly did the wrong thing. Go Swannies.

Which one you thinking? I haven’t heard a single quality forward is available? McStay is a third tall, and half the player Fritsch is in the same role. I’m open to hearing options for forwards, but I doubt there’s anyone good available. Jackson wasn’t a forward. He was a ruckman and around the ground spare ruck rover. Interestingly the best comparison is the guy we are bringing in - except the guy we are bringing in is also a 2 time All Australian, and a much better, and more experienced, footy player. Oh yeah, and he’ll cost us 250k a year less than the bloke who left will get. Swap Grundy for Jackson and we are instantly a much better side the next 2-3 years. And if Max goes down what do we do then? Spargo in the ruck? Pinch hitting with Bowey?

Save it for Zorko.
