Re: Grand Final 2024

Geelong were favoured to win against the away team Brisbane's ruckman dislocates his shoulder early in the game and Geelong take control with 7 goals in the second quarter. Brisbane were down by 25 points early in the 3rd. Brisbane fight back with a brilliant 3rd quarter. Their mids dominate stoppag...

Re: Jack McCrae

As for our salary cap space, that B.M rightly points out, that we have to spend on something(one). I'd be spending that on locking-in for the long term the likes of Nas, Owens, Windy, Henry, Higgins * , Hammer, Garcia, and B.M's man, Wilson I'd be spending $1m p.a on Nasiah and probably $800k on Ow...

Re: Grand Final 2024

AFL umpires don’t even try to hide their agenda. Geelong destroyed by some of the worst decisions you’ll see. Yeah... you're right. The umpire smothered the ball in the middle - not Daniher. The umpire kicked it forward to Cameron - not Answorth. The ump was composed and kicked it to Cal Ah Chee. A...

Re: Jack McCrae

So you don't want Macrae who you believe is too old and has dropped off the pace, yet your plan is to aim to contend in 3-4 years, when our current best players - Sinclair, Marshall, Steele, Wilkie will be older than Macrae is now, and more likely than not past their best? Doesn't make sense. Or ar...

Dunkley did the defending and took the tough roles where he was responsible for a player. Mcrae looked after Mcrae and tallied up possessions.

Re: Jack McCrae

B.M, Let's assume we've recruited Mcrae and both Mcrae and Marcus Windhager are fit and healthy at the start of 2025. Who would you prefer getting a dominant midfield role? Personally, I think it's vital for Windy's development that he is given opportunity to practice his craft as a mid. He's not ju...

His durability is the risk , not his actual performance.

It makes logical sense to replace Battle and Crouch but ONLY if you are of the view that we should try and challenge in 2025.

We have heaps of salary cap that has to be spent. We use it on MacRae for three years I get it. The accountant has taken over the club (i.e SOS and his calculator).

Watch the games where he played for 4 quarters and you'll realise he's lost leg speed. E.g Round 8 vs Hawthorn. Game was at Marvel. Bont was huge that day but Dogs lost. Libba copped a head knock early in the game. Mcrae got 21 touches and was ranked 6th among mids. Should have been 7th. Mcrae- 66 D...
