Merry Christmas everyone and a safe and happy New Year.
Thank you for the sometimes insightful intelligent posts and sometimes not so insightful posts throughout the year, however they have all been mostly entertaining.

Re: Chips Frawley

I hope Clav gets an opportunity at senior level in 2021 and is not delisted beforehand. I thought he was looking likely and was on the verge of selection until he got injured and never came back. He could be our answer going forward. He just needs a good couple of summers in the gym to build up a bi...

Re: The Caldwell conundrum

While he has potential he is unproven for that kind of money and commitment for us to make to him re mid field time. Don’t you have to earn the money and mid field time? He has been at GWS for two years and if he was that good he would have had more mid field time there even if they have a great mid...

Re: BJ. I WANTED TO STAY A SAINT

It makes me sad and angry that the club let people like BJ who had and still has I think, so much passion for the club, go. He was the next captain. I know we were rebuilding but we did not have to do it this way.

Re: Hill Deal Done _Details

Yes your spot on re the Stevens trade but other circumstances here have conspired against us trade wise but all the best for Jack. Cats unashamedly took full advantage. I cant stand them. They could have been fairer and offered pick 37 then it would have been even trade.

Re: Hill Deal Done _Details

The overall picture is you could argue it this way We lose pick 6 this year and a second rounder next year = Hill Blake Acres and a fourth rounder next year = Howard & a 3rd rounder back Picks 58 & 59 = Ryder That is a win for us. Just need to get Jones and Butler now...though I'd be happy ...

Re: Hill Deal Done _Details

So Hill for 10, 20-odd and 58. Acres was worth no more than the third rounder we got back. Much better than the 2 first rounders Belly was asking for. Sometimes you need to pay overs to kick-start a rebuild. Not unhappy. Agreed. We keep next year's first round pick. That's a win. Bell wanted it and...

Very positive article, thanks for posting. It sets the scene for an exiting few days leading up to the Wednesday deadline. I have never looked forward to a Monday as much for a very long time.

Re: 2019 Finals Thread

Just happy Chris Scott lost A complete f***head And I think Scarlett is there too, so even better! I wish Banger had punched Scarlett in the face that time he was giving him s***, just like when Scarlett punched Ballentine. Banger is too much of a gentleman. I would have replayed it forever I reckon.

Agreed but he could develop into a star yet. At the moment, due to his consistency he is a deserving winner.

Ratts would be his preferred choice you would think but he is a professional and would not refuse to work with someone else, depending on who it is I suppose.
