AFL TRADE NEWS AND RUMOURS
Wouldn't be a '65 hit would it? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bye,_Bye,_Baby_(Baby_Goodbye) or '66? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Working_My_Way_Back_to_You And did you mean to put this in the Cerra thread?

Medals for All?
Incredible that some on here even want to see all of the staff get a "medal" Went down the pub last week, and had a few beers with 3 time Hawthorn Premiership medal winning boot studder Albert "Club" Foote. Christ almighty.

Medals for All?
The players who suit up on Grand Final day are the ones who will create history. The others are simply names on a list, regardless of the (important) roles they played in getting there. That's why I prefer to see only the winning 22/3 get a grand final medal. @whatwhat say whatis on the money.

Daisy Pearce wins AFL Media Association Best Opinion / Analyst Award (thread update)
Never ceases to annoy me how media always finds ways to give itself awards. That said, I reckon we'd all nominate Daisy for her insight. She is a football genius and soooo easy to listen to compared to the hysterical men.

Medals for All?
Pointless question Nash. It cheapens the value of the medals that are given to people who didn't play. Give them something else if they are not satisfied with watching their mates win a flag.

Medals for All?
Id recognise the non players with something different. A club medallion or something. Premiership medals are only for premiership players.
-
Medals for All?
Only the players who actually took the field should get a medal. I've never been one for participation awards. It cheapens the real thing.

Yes Mr used car salesman trying to sell a Datsun 120Y as a Kia Stinger.

Who will be our unsung Grand Final hero?
If we win, Viney will win the Norm Smith. If The unthinkable happens, Macrae will win it. Unsung hero. Must be a "no name" Us - Trent Rivers Them - Bailey Dale. (ok, A.A but who has heard of him outside the Bulldogs?)

Tom McDonald Re-Signs Until 2024
Ben Brown is a bit mechanical in his movements, so that's probably a fair comment.

Tom McDonald Re-Signs Until 2024
Surprised by this. Maybe it shows that there are not many options around who the club feel could fill his role in this current "window" Or maybe he is playing exactly the role that is being asked of him. Oh well, good luck TMAC. Hope it's 3 good years to come.

Jake Melksham
Bye Jake. Thanks for your service. Shame you were ordinary at defending, otherwise you could have been about to become a Premiership player.

The Curfew
Id rather the entire team live between the resort and the training oval anyway. Imagine one gets a cold from some snot-nosed lolly gobbler while out and about. Stay safe Dees. We have a flag to win.

The power of "Us Against the Rest of the World"
Wont matter. Bevo bleating about us v them, travel, consecutive games, quarantine etc screams of a lack of confidence.

Sam Weideman re-signs until 2023
Why? We were told by the club itself that he was recruited to play on the wing where he was average, and then he was moved down back where he flourished. Nothing "narrow" about that at all.

TICKETING: GF vs Bulldogs
That's quite a pisstake there "Les" Reckon you might have some explaining to do once your mate (the real Les) realises you have set him up.
-
Sam Weideman re-signs until 2023
Geez he has been good in a key post down back though. Looks to be a rare find. Would be difficult for them to move him when he has found his groove. Tommo on the other hand was moved down back because he failed in the role we recruited him for.

GRAND FINAL: Melbourne vs Western Bulldogs
Every teams supporter are unbearable when they win a flag. It's unfortunate for me that everyone I work with follows Drugby League and as such I have nobody to spend all of my unbearableness tickets on.

Sam Weideman re-signs until 2023
I reckon if we get Gunston and then target a backup (mature) ruck, Weid is in big strife.

Training in Perth
If Jack goes at anywhere near 100%, any player who doesn't match it is asking to be injured.

Brownlow Medal 2021
faulty was also a little surprised by this.
-
Sam Weideman re-signs until 2023
Based on his output this year, he is not decent depth at all. He was putid almost every time he set foot on the ground this year.

GRAND FINAL: Melbourne vs Western Bulldogs
Be excited, not worried. This is a new Demon Team. I feel we've cracked the code.

TICKETING: GF vs Bulldogs
Don't worry Dee. You can be jealous for one day about the game, but all of those guys are jealous the other 364 days of the year that you get to live in Queensland. Chin up mate.
