Re: 2025 Fixture

12 wins at most from that draw, so no finals again and still living in mid table.

He certainly sounds like an upgrade for Bonner.

Re: Number of list spots??

I think it’s a ridiculous sentiment What if we overlook a potential star because we have backed ourselves into a corner by saying we will recruit 1 player from a list of 25 pretty average VFL players It’s like the bloody quota system What if we had this deal in place last season and had to take Dar...

Re: Tm Membrey

There are now only 6 players left on our list from the Richo era, which ended 5 years ago.
Steele, Clark, King (who was getting over an ACL in his first season), Marshall, Sinclair and Wilkie (his first season).
That is quite a turnover of talent or lack thereof.

Re: Is Barrett sponsored by KFC?

Barrett is a petty figjam killjoy.
He belittled our "dead rubber" wins in the second half of the season.
I loved our floggings of West Coast, Essendon, Geelong and even Richmond, because it showed that we hadn't given up.

Re: My Boy Coops

Not just Sharman, but virtually all forwards missed very kickable set shots, including Higgins and Owens, who despite their flawed kicking techniques, are forwards who are paid to convert those types of opportunities. Had we kicked 9.5. 59 instead of 5.9. 39 we would stil have lost by 65 points. So ...

Re: Brad Hill Contract Extension

Given his slow and steady improvement under Lyon, in 2027 he might actually become the player that we sold the farm for back in 2020!
Let us see how he matches up against Acres in the final round.
I guess Lyon won't expose him to that embarrassing comparison.

Re: Lance Collard

What has Lance done this week?
100+ replies already suggests that he kicked 5 goals for Sandy, but no that was Allison!
So did Lance hit someone off the ball?
He can't have vilified an opponent surely, because that is so much worse or is it?

Thank goodness, I wondered why Hill pulled out of contests and lacked spatial awareness.

I think 2025 will see Ross Lyon finally make the necessary changes to our senior core. Most years see fringe players delisted rather than senior players who have passed their use-by-date. This year Jones, Crouch (injury), Ross, Hill, Hayes (injury), Cordy, Membrey and Campbell all under serious doub...

They put out all sorts of rubbish just to cause a pile-on.

You're paraphrasing Oscar Wilde, that great author from the 19th Century.
