  1. Possibly. It's certainly unsportsmanlike. Kos was running into an open goal and that was not a genuine attempt at a tackle.
  2. How big will Thursday night's game be now?
  3. Bringing JVR and Fritta back after their VFL performances and after our AFL performance would seem counter productive. Recognise and reward form. Only May (if fit) and then Mcvee (was solid on return) should come in to replace Turner.
  4. I cried.
  5. we need the crowd. Those extra 2 should help us crack an attendance of 1000.
  6. There is an image of Trac from 2021 GF after he kicked his amazing goal where I saw a determination that I've never seen before in anyone. The camera focuses on him for an instance, there's sweat coming off him and instead of wild celebrations (as us fans were doing) we get to see him as he prepares for the next centre bounce. Truly f ..ng focused and committed. It was passionate, determined and powerful. It's hard to describe how I felt then when I first saw his face then and now compared to when I look back on it. Trac is elite. He would make a great captain.
  7. 6 - Chandler 5- Oliver 4 - XL 3 - Trac 2 - Henderson 1 - Salem
  8. I get the disappointment over this, but WE know how good the Duke is, and the longer he's kept under the radar for us, the better.
  9. This is close to the perfect balance IMHO. (Maybe less U/23 and more 23 to 27 if we're winning premierships)
  10. Turner has been withdrawn due to illness, according to the MFC website. One man's misfortune is another's opportunity. El Jefe makes the team and Johnson the bench. Let's see what you can do.
  11. Luke Trainor looked a star too.
  12. They were $10.50 on Sportsbet at the start of the game. It would have been staggering the odds when 41pts down.
  13. GWS have moved to 3rd favourite on Betfair. $7 Hawthorn $7.40 Brisbane $7.60 GWS Round 1 form is always overrated. Get on the Dees for next week!
  14. Trac and Clarry putting in good games was a highlight. No JVR meant we had little up forward. Hope he's OK. Langford and Lindsay were quieter than last week, but Johnson showed promise. I'm cautiously optimistic for the season (as I always am).
  15. My shout if my $1 bet comes off ... (Also have every combo of 2 legs ie 6 bets of $10. I think Roo winning the Coleman is the least likely but what the hell).
  16. I think they could reduce rotations further (say, to 50/game or even less) and get rid of the sub. Fewer rotations means there's less disadvantage to someone being injured and more strategy in managing interchange.
  17. In soccer they're all subs.
  18. Unfortunately once we tumbled down the ladder - accompanied by the perceived issues at MFC - we lost the opportunity to recruit this year's premier target, Dan Houston. We were the front runners early on, but yeah... I think we've done the right thing by getting ourselves 2x top 10 picks. We still have at least 2 years of Gawn at his top, and if Petracca and Oliver (returning to form) in the team then we have another 4 or so years with them. If our picks are good then they could easily be a part of a premiership within that time frame. (think of the impact of jackson and Picket). BUT if we are sh*&# again next year and we lose either or both and we decide to rebuild then we're a year ahead of schedule - especially with Caleb, Kolt and Jeffo.
  19. What a cutting comment! Can you be more blunt than that?
  20. I got exactly these odds ($26) on the eve of the 2021 season. Put $25 on it. (But then I have bet on Melbourne to win ever since about 2001)
  21. There really were some games towards the end of the season when we weren't doing that well but Jack stood out. Heart and soul kind of stuff. Congrats Jack on your second Bluey. Well deserved.
  22. Sydney need to bring on Ted Hopkins
  23. The nostaglia has kicked in. Trade week has always been our Grand Final. We've been too focused on winning the damn things the last few years. Nice analysis AOB. It makes sense to me - and awesome that you've done the 'draft points' thing. What other clubs cou;d offer similar/better in your opinion?
  24. I think you're right. Beachworth is less than 40 mins from Albury and the timing, school and occupation lines up.
  25. Haha. That would have been fun.
