Hopefully we have Cooper Sharman coming into the side and he plays permanent forward

Caminiti plays permanently in defence
he looks better as a defender, means we have to go back to the chook raffle to find another Key Forward.
I don't like our chances.


Season 2024 is where RTB is showing the footy world his grasp of the modern game. :shock:

If we can bag a couple of good picks in the draft and if Van Es and Keeler stay fit...you never know... forward and back we might be right

I think fixing the midfield mix is the biggest challenge. An LDU type would help 😀

It was true at the time I posted or that’s what Gerard Healy said on the wireless.

Most calls I don’t mind but the frees they chose to ignore one way but pin us I hate.

So for the umpire sympathetic posters I ask you .

Windy needed to know exactly where the mark was so it’s 50 no warning.

The free to StKilda where the umpire told the Brisbsne player to return the ball but he handballed it to Butler who the free kick wasn’t for.
Umpire didn’t award 50 why?
See above - Butler clearly called for it.

Again I will say it who cares who called for it.

Umpire pinned 50 against Windy as he apparently should know where the mark was. The Brisbane player knew the free wasn’t Butlers yet the umpire gave him the benefit.
