Is Hunt playing?

Yes I think it’s a 50/50 game today. About 8-9 AFL listed in Casey as JVR, Brown and Melksham out. Likely upset given absentees. Lots of kids for Casey today so big test.

Key matchups. Weideman v OBrien Spargo v Parnell 🤣🤣🤣 ⭐️May v ⭐️Walker Bbb v Butts anyone willing to man up v Dawson (who plays loose as their quarterback) Laird⭐️ & Keays & Berry v Viney⭐️⭐️ & Trac⭐️⭐️& Clarry⭐️⭐️

Crows have Laird and Walker and Keays and Doedee and don’t recognize many others !!!

Dees new ruck duo

Mitch Brown to ruck ?

Dees might give a rookie spot at year end to young Jack Bell from Casey. Given Daw is retired, need a young ruck development player on the books.

No Gawn No Tmcd Daw retired now … Dogga out - wtf. no no no !!! Weid to Ruck v O’Brien. Ummmm. Ahhhhhh! plan B. Petty to ruck. Alternate with Tomlinson. (???). I would bring in Tomlinson. He’s played versatile ruck before plus can cover for Petty if we put him in the ruck.

Jackson is a lifetime ruckman with aerobic abilities to outlast his competitors for the next 10 years. Good elite ruckmen are harder to find than midfielders in my view. We really want Jackson to stay at MFC and become one of the greats. For him to go, we’d want big compensation. Luke Jackson = Andrew Brayshaw and a 1st round 2022 pick. I don’t care if Brayshaw wins the Brownlow or finishes top 3. That’s the deal.

Come on Luke. Take the shot. Sign up with the mighty Dees. 🤞

Huge news Absolutely fantastic awesome etc etc

Great signs but he’s playing too well imv. We need him to cool down.

Any draft picks to get this done ? Spare $$$ in our budget?? I want a new Audi Q7 but you have to have the buying power !!

At end of 2022. It’s a No. He was in his prime but not anymore. We need to save $$$ for the contracts over the next few years. Smart buying is not Gunston. More appetite if we wanted a young forward is to go for someone like Jake Riccardi from the Giants. Would be a cheap buy, young (22) and still plenty of upside.

ST KILDA pair Paddy Ryder and Bradley Hill were involved in a bar altercation but the club has denied reports they were left out of the AFL team last week for disciplinary reasons. The Saints on Monday night said Ryder and Hill were part of a "verbal exchange and disagreement" with fellow patrons at a venue in Mordialloc. so do we now see the AFL jump onboard with a full inquiry and the integrity unit called in !!!! Surely yes and will Caro and Robbo and Damo and Tommy and Ralphy all feast on this club bust up and club in crisis headlines !!!!

Agree. Davies-Uniacke is a gun youngster. Pace and strength. Contracted until end 2023. Would command $$s if he went out to market and North would probably want a top 10 pick back for him.

In about 2012, a Collingwood supporter invited me as a guest to their Presidents lunch. I rejected. To lie with dogs, you get fleas. Gus will not be seen with any feral cats!!

Agreed. Brayshaw not in the votes 🤨 He was composed, got it plenty and filled many gaps to repel Lions attack. But at least you called it !!

I think it will be “No Change” Only change possible is “in. Rivers Out. Bowey” (he was pushed aside, overran it several times and didn’t look composed with the footy as he did in rounds 1-4. )

FAGAN WAS RIGHT … “LIONS WERE LUCKY THAT THE DEES DIDNT KICK STRAIGHT” … IT WOULD HAVE BEEN AN ANNILIATION

6. Viney 5. Lever 4. Jackson 3. Brayshaw 2. Jordon 1. Hibberd apologies to Trac, Clarry & Harmesy who were good and mostly everyone else contributed. Langdon and Bowey were very quiet.

Luke , you are the chosen one

Get out the wheelbarrow full of cash

⭐️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻Viney. Jackson. Brayshaw. Lever. Jordon ANB could be good but fumbles and his kicking is disappointing

dees pressure but goalkicking is shizzzzzen. Trac is an excellent player. Not elite. Elite players kick the goal. Oliver is an excellent player. Not elite. Elite players kick the goal.
