You don’t poke the bear, GT used to do it and it hurt us. If you think the AFL isn’t vindictive you are wrong

We will be shafted!
Yeah but we got a couple of extra draft picks 25 years ago so we should just be happy to take it.

Well we gave up a 27 point lead in a final 18 years ago so obviously we are the only team who could give up a big lead in a final.

Re: J.Hayes

People really do over state Hayes ability. He has played 8 games of which one was great, one was average to good and the others he was basically invisible. Reading what people are writing you would swear he was a star that has played at a high level for years. Not wholly surprising I suppose, befor...

He got a vote in the Saintsational player of the year so a lot on here noticed him.

Re: The Swans or the Lions ?

About 20 years ago I had a work colleague who was a Brisbane supporter. He said to me one day that Riewoldt was a sook and that St Kilda was a club that would never win a premiership in his lifetime, because they were an inferior club. Perhaps he was right but I have never forgotten nor forgiven. S...

If so
Why wasn’t there an earlier bid on him?

We got a leg up in 2000-2001-2002
And either selected the wrong player or developed them poorly

That’s on us
The rules were different. There was no bidding.

Re: The Silly Season

We traded pick 39 and our 2019 2nd rounder for Dan Hannebery and Pick 28. We then traded pick 28 to Melbourne for picks 36 & 46. Those picks slid to 41 & 47, with which we selected Jack Bytel & Matthew Parker. Sydney used their pick 39 (slid to 44) to select Justin McInerney. Sydney sel...

Could you come on here every Thursday and let us know the AFL agenda for the week. It would really help with my tipping.

Maybe you could start with this week.
