Out Gresham And pick ??? Lot of discussion on the pick back to Essendon As low as 13 or as high as 50 That is the cruncher in this possible deal That's right, that is the cruncher. Surely Essendon don't get 13 for Gresham. Not much in it for us in that case. Get Shiel, but plus his contract, and ou...

No to another player in his 30s with injury issues thanks. In fact, no to any player over 28. That includes Boak or anybody like that. Let's just focus on drafting the best youth we can get. In a couple of years Tasmania will come in and it will be like the endless cycle of draft concessions GWS, a...

What is reported this morning in the Herald sun seems ridiculous. Gresham to Essendon for First Round Pick First Round pick to Essendon for Dylan Shiel Therefore effectively Essendon get a First Rounder for nothing. Shiel will be 31 (as of Round 1) and hasnt played a full season since 2019 !!!!!! M...

Don't think I'd have Acres in our side. He epitomises our issues with long bombs to opposition inside 50. What rubbish. Did you miss the Elimination Final against Sydney? His size and his running ability and work rate and contested ball winning abilities are made for finals. Easily one of Carlton's...

Taking a massive leap without any consideration of where you are landing is reckless. Jumping so high or late that you can't change direction and then lands on the player proves how reckless it was. If you don't have the ball and you throw yourself at the ball and can't possibly lay a legal tackle,...

I only saw the incident for the first time yesterday, the behind the goal view. The right decision has been made, Michael Christian made the right call, then we get the inevitable AFL Executive Clown Show! Maynard didn't deliberately line him up, he was trying to smother the kick. Maynard was movin...

The vast majority trying to defend what Maynard did, are the same people who have resisted changes to the rules. They fight to keep things the same as the 'good old days'. For the last 30 years or more, there's been a chorus of ex players calling the players of today soft. They can't stand the fact...

Good decision, amongst all the media hype. Football survives.

Before this year GWS had played in 5 of the last 7 finals series. We had played one. It showed.

Some dumb footy at times. Sincs and others were turning it over. Crouch, Pou, Seb Ross, Higgo. Can't stand it when we try and target Higgins in a 1-1 marking contest. He's not Stewy Loewe ffs!! He's a fvcken small forward. He's not a tall. Firstly; it's a low percentage play and he usually gets out...

The media debate on this sort of incident continues to alienate me, as does some of the commentary on here. All I can hear is the same old crap that was thrown around when Giascura jumped up and elbowed Kosi in the head back in 2006: after which Kosi was never the same player again. You know what I...

I actually think he gets off if he doesn't turn his body side on and the shoulder crashes into his head. He left the ground and has a duty to protect the player he is running at ,and did not have to turn side on. BINGO!!! To me that’s the crux of the matter right there. If he stays front on and the...

If Maynard gets suspended for that the game should become non contact. If he wanted to clean up Brayshaw he could have ran straight at him. The fact he jumped showed his intent was to smother. Very soft if he is rubbed out for that. What you are arguing is that head injuries are acceptable. That se...

We've continued to improve our game over the past 5 weeks , the run and dare, fierce tackling and whole-of-ground defence would have every other top 8 team concerned. We have remained in the 8 the entire season despite starting with 14 players on our injury list, which has diminished to 4. Two play...

I recall it was pretty much a consensus around the AFL that the Saint's premiership window had closed in 2011. Pelchen had arrived to rejig the list. https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/resign-lyon-and-give-him-time-20110721-1hqy4.html The narrative which you wrongly call ‘consensus’ was actually c...

Some people write off a playing list way too early in my opinion. ….these were Ross’s now infamous departing words the first time he left St Kilda; “We’re a mature list. It’s the end of an era…really” I know that Pelchen was already at our club and I know there were boardroom issues, but if the mos...

Why isn’t Cordy at fault? Trailing his opponent Or should Seb cover his man and Cordy’s? He’s not a KPP who takes contested marks - in fact he’s poor overhead What he is Clean hands, great inside vision and elite handballer If it were Darcy Moore or Tom Stewart or Sicily or Vlaustin or Andrew’s or ...

Was good to see seb and members back And to see Sharman cement himself into the side I reckon Sharman was rested and I bet Lyon is planning to use him on Cameron next week. I reckon Cameron would run rings round Sharman. Has to be Wilkie. Sharman plays on the interceptors - Sicily, Vlastuin. Stewar...

It's not only about the quality of your midfield. They need to gell and play for each other. They need a game plan and system they believe in. Melbourne last night had a midfield of Gawn, Grundy, Petracca, Brayshaw, Oliver ...all of them All Australians ... Up against Carlton's TDK, Pittonet, Cripp...
