Is this a bit random? Sounds like he's jumped around from position to position... What are his actual qualifications? I guess like everything we have to trust those making the decisions... He and Gubby Allen worked together at GWS ? He worked at GWS for seven years doing fitness stuff as well as co...

It's a good point about Max. Looks like we got a ripper at 4. GC would be spewing that they didn't take him.

I liked Paddy early days. He had some games where he looked really dangerous. Could have become a good player for us. Never as good as Petracca but it would hurt less if not for his career being destroyed by concussion.

Longy has some work to do this off season. He needs to put in a big off-season and be ready to have a great season in 2022. Otherwise I fear it will be his last season with us. 10 possessions a game just doesn't cut it. Needs to find a way into games more consistently. When he's in the game he's exc...

Dunstan has been treated poorly by St Kilda, as was Luke Ball. Tough in & under but lacking pace to 'spread'. This type of player is highly valued by many clubs like Geelong with Joel Selwood, but not by St Kilda. I kind of hope he gets to a decent club, wins a flag and gives St Kilda the middl...

We need more from Jones and Crouch regularly. They are two of our better players but they're really inconsistent. Regularly very good and regularly very poor.

We know from Ratten's previous voting that he would have given Steele 5 or 4. Which leads you to believe Horse gave him 1 or 2.

Which seems a pretty sooky move from Horse.

I don't think King is certain to miss.

Wow Longmire is a loser. Gave Steele 1 vote haha, must have been watching a different game.

Unless you're Ben Long in a final.

The Pride Game is about gay pride, it has nothing to do with pride in the jumper. People have been and still are ashamed to say they're gay because of the discrimination gay people have faced. People have been murdered because they are gay or queer. I don't think anyone has been murdered for wearing...

It has been inferred in this thread.

Absolute crap. He got 18 touches and a goal with the Zebs, do you think he comes in to replace Kent, who is the biggest spud in the AFL? I don't know, but I do know someone isn't going to give up 500k because it's "the right thing to do". And we are paying plenty of spuds right now not ju...

Absolute crap.

Richmond favorite for the poison chalice that is 8th position this year. Its a ticket to an away game against a hot contender that rightly thinks it should be in the top 4. However if we win anything can happen. Really, Carlton's form is not too bad other than last week and North recently beat Eagl...

Apparently our game against Carlton will be moved to Friday night.

And bizarrely, after all the results went our way today we would be 8th if we win.

If,say, 60-70% of the population has been fully vaccinated, wouldn’t it impact the situation in general, including quarantines etc.?

We won't get to that number until well into next year.

With the side we fielded that's a very impressive win by Sandy.

And a terrible loss for Richmond.

I'd like to see him go away over this next off-season and get really really fit. Finish top 10 in the time trial. We know he's good enough but he does not look fit, looks oversized and slow.

We should have some good ins at least. Marshall, Membrey, Ross.

Damian Barrett reporting Nth Melbourne are very confident they will pick up Josh Kelly as a FA at seasons end. I doubt Billings goes there if that is correct. I wouldn’t mind having Josh Kelly, surely we have a spare $800k+ to throw his way?? Kelly this year is back to 2017 best He’d be ideal on cu...

Caro knew exactly what she was doing making those comments, that she'd hook in the usuals and lo and behold she's news for the week. People bringing up Finnis and how the club is soft need to have a good hard look at themselves. Yes it is frustrating that we are not winning, but that's what all thi...

Ok let's go back to 2020. We have just won a final, Carlisle's first ever finals win. His wife is about to give birth. Do people really think he WANTED to leave? Look at Paddy after the Dogs game, literally in tears because he can't play the next week. And people question Paddy's commitment in leavi...

I agree with the sentiments of the OP, though it's hard to argue against time off for the birth of a baby every now and then. What might be called "the Finnis mindset" has taken over this club and I don't believe it's a good thing. Finnis was CEO of the Players Association and came to the...

Coffield in particular looks to have bulked up in the off season and consequently looks slow and stoggy. He was never quick, but has lost all aerobic fitness and is struggling with the speed of the game. I am not a huge fan and believe he was a poor draft selection at pick # 8, but he needs to get ...
