Wright left the ground He’s gone 4 at minimum Only thing that saved him from more is he’s facing the ball unlike Webster The club ought to kick up a real stink about this behind the scenes if he gets off with a couple. As far as I am concerned, the ground rules have been set and there must be consi...

5 - Windy (Don't reduce the job that he did. 24 possies, 7 clearances, 6 tackles, and did a number on the one of the games best players) 4 - NWM (Wonderful user of the footy. Played out wide and was an ideal distributor of the footy. 3 - Marshall (soundly beaten in hit outs but a huge 11 clearances ...

Assuming King's suspension stands Out King, Henry, Wood In Caminiti Butler Garcia (sub) Schoenmaker is a half back and that's not what we need Crouch looked to be struggling with his knee issue In the VFL today Collard didn't touch it. Neither did Hotton, who was the invisible man in the midfield K...

Didn't realise there was already a thread on this

I reckon he’s better than Nick Daicos. He’s a pillar of strength down back and can set up a dangerous attack. What a player! Not sure he's better...Nick is an excellent player with very few flaws. Imagine the hype, though, if NWM had a more famous dad and played for Collingwood! At this stage N. Da...

It's a known issue...We made a big play for both Xerri and Draper, if I recall, and couldn't land either of them.

That's the noise coming from the club. Hit the draft hard again this season and look to FA next year.

Scores per inside 50: 2023 - 45.4% (last in the comp) vs Geelong - 52.3% (2nd in the comp) This is a big problem when you combine it with the fact that we only had 44 inside 50's (2nd last) - we averaged 52.1 last season. Yes, we've lifted our effeciency, but if we're only getting 11 chances a quar...

Quite frankly, after barracking for the Saints for over 50 years, that does not wash with me anymore. I have zero confidence and expectation in them. And I can't see that changing anytime soon. If you REALLY have been following the Saints for 50 years, you've found a strange time to lose the plot, ...

Great stuff!

The Bonner one was just as putrid.
Lucky neither cost us a goal.

There have been some astonoshingly bad decisions.

The argument also is that post your second-third round pick… everything is just such a long shot. If you’re going to take a punt, why not punt on talent with a bad attitude vs lack of talent with a good attitude. If no one takes him… throw him on the rookie list. On a side note… a few ppl have refe...

The issue with the Webster hit for me is the grading by the AFL MRO. Webster's hit was graded as careless. I find it hard to accept that any careless act on a footy field is worthy of a seven match suspension. If they'd graded Webster's bump as intentional, then I'd have no problem with the length o...

None of the teams that were 0-2 last season played finals.
Brisbane and GWS were 1-2
GWS were 1-3.

There was a lot of change post byes last season.
GWS, Sydney, and Carlton were all out of the eight after round 15.
It wasn't until round 23, that the teams in the eight were settled.

Fair assumption that you'll be donning the Winkle Pickers ready to insert them into the rectum of your latest whipping boys!
