some here seem to be adopting a "devil may care" attitude towards this issue of national significance

Casey game is on the Gold Coast as well I think Sorry.. already posted Could be a good night on the town for all !!

No The Tasmanian taxpayer is bankrolling this team. Tassie didn't get a great deal compared to GWS and GCS At least they were spared a licence fee of $4M approx that Adelaide and others paid

Will they follow the GWS or the GCS drafting model is the big question IMO GWS system is better but takes longer GCS offers a better look from day one

what went wrong out of interest? Seemed a reasonable idea... Personally I think it's time to stop using permanent parkland for car parking...... park and ride is the way

Agree Assuming that the win/loss ratio is good post bye I'd like to see him coming back as the sub for a couple of games with the idea of sharing half a game with another player.. say Hibberd

A study of history and how it is or is not recorded is a subject worth of almost compulsory study. Can't understand why the Alice Game is not a permanent fixture for the Pastor Doug Nicholl's round

worth running the numbers

Amazing that a 19th team is admitted without realistic discussion of the bye. So 18 byes over 18 weeks followed by 19 teams having a second bye stretched over four weeks. In all probability the four weeks will be mid season but the ladder will be nonsense until around round 15. Of course the fans will scream for a 20th team. Compromised drafts for six years I'm liking relegation of the wooden spooner instead

Great to see I hope someone is looking after our oral and now visual history. Every player from the 2021 premiership side should have their story of the day recorded plus the coaches of course. Like archives they can restrict their publication for say ten years but imagine a detailed interview with Norm Smith and Ron from 1964... not to mention a follow up in 1966

20 plus a year from Oliver takes his play to another level. In 2021 he kicked 11. Last year 5 and this year 4 to date

over the years I have noticed that while you may get more time to kick at VFL level you seldom get the same space as you do at AFL level. Chandler is showing the knack of finding that space and it's paying off

oh well

most top 60 draftees get offered a 2/3 year extension at the end of year 1. They take it because they get a pay rise. Kozzie and Rivers signed for 3. Jackson for 2. This is an over reaction

as the sub he replaces Harmes If Petty doesn't return he takes Schache's spot in the 22

Jake a certainty for sub if not in the 22

Laurie relatively quiet impact wise Taj has gone quiet also

Melksham v Schache is interesting

hard to get a feel for them as the delivery like last week has been poor TMac is trying to bullock his way through and is failing

Jefferson goals good signs

raining goals for the Hawks

terrible crowded forward set up for Casey no crumbers again this week

nice goal to BBB Anyone else having trouble seeing the ball in the air

the music died ..... for North

need another couple this quarter
