Re: Best teams

I'm pretty sure that Jones, Ross, Hill and Campbell will not be offered contracts at the end of 2024. So the development of Dow, Windhager, Henry and Heath will all be vital next year. While Crouch, Steele, Hayes, Membrey, Webster and Wood will all be 30+ by the end of 2025. Making the longer-term d...

Re: Innovators win, not imitators!

Skills pay the Bills. Now the year of exploration (and excuses) is behind us, we can now look forward to the remainder of RLs 3 year journey and what our DNA might become. Hoping we see some attacking flare added to the game plan. I guess that means goodbye Jones, Crouch, Ross, Byrnes, Howard, Higg...

27 for Garcia if we've recruited him as a forward to play under the wing of Membrey.
Otherwise if we've recruited him to play as a defender he can have 34 to be schooled by Paton (defence) and Sinclair (offence).

Guernsey numbers next season

Given that Dow wore 2 at Carlton, number 1 would fit him nicely. Phillipou could move to number 4 between Jones and Crouch if he is being groomed for a future midfield role. 15 for Wilson, where Butler can take him under his wing. 23 for Henry, given that he wore that number at Fremantle. 24 for Col...

Re: Final V GWS Friday night (Sportsbet said) but now Saturday 3.20pm

I wish that Sydney were playing us at Marvel, just for the pure irony associated with Lyon's farewell game as our coach in 2011! As for playing GWS at the MCG, I think this actually suits them less than playing them at Marvel based on perceived GWS performances at both venues this season. Someone el...

Re: Is this first time we have no retiree?

Campbell for sure, due to his age and lack of flexibility.
Maybe McKenzie and Jones to, due to injuries that they can't seem to get over.

It's amazing how much mythology builds around coaches who have had a premiership with an outstanding playing list with a host of superstars.

Re: Fans biggest misses

I thought Daryl Cowie was going to be a gun. Tall, mobile, good skills just couldn’t get the ball. I thought Sincs had the skills but lacked the physicality to be a good AFL player. I thought we’d won the Russell Greene trade after Mark Scott kicked 16 and Tony King had 400 possessions in their fir...

Weagles next week

Weagles are 137 points down against Swans at 3/4 time.
So they look like losing by about 30 goals this week.
Is a win enough for us next week or do we need to thrash them too?

Lets segway from Billings ongoing injury concerns to other players with long-term injuries, such as Coffield, Jones, Hayes, Membrey, and McKenzie, who will all need extended time at Sandringham to find full fitness and touch again, just like Billings. The obvious proof of this rule is Billings and M...

One thing is certain- no need to take the crowd out of the equation. Would be lucky to get 13k to the ground. (I think GWS vs Blues early this season got <10k, and AFL app won't give any crowd sizes for any games last yr at Giants Stadium) Not much noise. Ok, most goals Higgo 4 Most marks Wilkie 12...

I have us at 14 wins. Beating Tigers, Hawks twice each, beating Norf again, losing to Dees, Cats, maybe Swans, Lions... Will 14 get us into the 8? Yes it will get us into the eight easily, but I think we will only win 12 games, which will make it tough. In our current form we will only beat Hawthor...
