Sometimes I wonder if we should bother in the next two seasons. The system is rigged for GWS and I cant see the AFL changing the ridiculous 20% discount scheme until they have already won two flags. Did you know that GC, Brisbane and Sydney also have academies? No one complains about them. GWS has ...

Freeman was very good today. Not clearly above vfl quality but he found the pill a lot. I also noticed that he pops his kicks up a bit, as if he doesn't point his toe. He is very good at lowering his eyes and spotting up with R Harvey-like 20m passes. Developing nicely and could have a very good 20...

5-Josh Kelly
4-Steven May
3-Dusty Martin
2-Josh Bruce
1-NOK

Hopefully all 5 soon make it onto our team

Bruce in for minchington next week?

Minchington playing in this team doesn't not bode well for his position this friday

I guess so

Many teams keep having players debut for them except us. I'm not talking about players that have played elsewhere (like Carlisle, Brown, etc) but players we have recruited for us to nurture. Over the last two drafts we have done woefully either due to the players picked by our recruiting team or th...

A work of art. That trade looks more and more like masterstroke each week

May a good player but needs to clean up his game. Missed 8 games in 2 years to suspension (5 and 3). Not good enough if we're going to pay bucks for him. But imagine him and Jake Carlisle enforcing our Backline. We'd finally have some genuine tall defenders that are A-grade. Also, May is Captain at...

I think we can get a real gauge on who is gonna leave clubs or re-sign, once the pay deal comes in and players can get more money for their contracts. Reckon that's what Fyfe and Martin are waiting for, and maybe Steven May

maybe you can instruct them on how to do up their bootlaces. I'm sure I can teach them how to hang onto a chest mark ffs. When they're both guns and winning us games in a few years I hope you look back with a fair degree of embarrassment on how you slagged them off during their development, pretty ...

Sinclair reminds me of Robbie Gray - minus the ability. Although in all seriousness, I think he's pretty handy. He's the one that see as having the most upside and potential to make it. I thought the only thing Robbie Gray had going for him was ability? But I agree about Sinclair having a lot of up...

Goddard has just come back from a year out and is 20 years old, he was not the only player who was atrocious on Saturday, give him a chance

Loved the G-train, let's bring him back

Wow, a real crackdown happening around here

No love for Hopper? Has amazing promise and will cost a fraction of any other player. As well as matching our age demographic

How Aboriginal is Gresh? Must be only a quarter at best I reckon - he's olive skinned at best WTF, in today's society that is such a s*** thing to say and totally unacceotable. You know I always thought that the abnormally large crime rates, unemployment rates and alcoholism rates facing the aborig...

My wife May I repeat may have an aboriginal ancestor about 4 generations ago. So if she decided she was aboriginal then she is aboriginal? Stop saying this 1960's nonsense. People of all races inter marry. To say someone who has a small fraction of their bloodline is one race 100% makes no sense. I...

So there are exceptions? I didn't know that, just hope they are consistent with it

Really good map of all the current aboriginal players and where their tribes are in the Sunday age

McKlunkin should actually clunk a mark?! I find it a bizarre concept moment to say that "If he had cleaner hands he'd have played well" He didn't/doesn't have clean hands, that's the issue?! Key forward generally do have good hands! Did you watch any of his games last year then? Had the m...
