Yep. The one who can kick. Brayshaw and Serong are gun clearance winners in a game where mids need to be good by fit to be truly elite. The difference between them + Fyfe and the three Port boys on Sunday was stark. Similar to why Clarry getting fit won't mean he's back to his best either. The game is moving.

Nobody is saying ANB should not be traded. How difficult would a conversation along the lines of "of course you can go, Alex, but we need to look for maximum value here" have been?

True, but surely we need to address the elephant in the room? There is clearly something in these cultural concerns. We'd all think it if this was happening to another club.

He wouldn't be any more homesick than he was, but he may see this as an opportunity to go. I'm sure many others will.

Perty, Goody and the boys will no doubt back themselves to get things right. Our culture is absolutely great. It is a total coincidence that one of our players is facing four years for a positive test on gameday, another spent all off-season away from the group and didn't fire a shot this season, our best player will do anything to not come back and our most exciting player and most loyal player have apparently decided in the last few weeks they want to go home. I don't think a Pickett trade will eventuate given his management ruled it out last week - more fool them - but how many more will jump off this sinking ship?

Or he's seen how people have responded to Trac and has decided to find a better reason.

The rules were changed last year. How hard is it? The AFL were the ones who challenged Maynard getting off in the first place.

Billings could not have telegraphed that handball more.

That's a literal kick to disadvantage.

Apparently he wants so sing the song again before he goes. Words vs actions...

Every single decision going their way today. They can elbow us in the head freely, but we can't tackle them.

He is out of his depth. He needs to dominate for Casey first.

There are five kids at Casey who should be playing over Kolt. Doing neither him nor us a favour by playing him now.

Never seen Rivers play so poorly. All that hard work...

We've gone from flag favourite in round 7 to bottom 6 and 4 losses on the trot. We've kicked 2 behinds in 20 minutes. What do you want from them?
