Caller or special comments/analysis? I'd be surprised to hear him doing play by play commentary.

“SSP draft” is not a thing, Splinters

Wow - that guy has 9 lives. Absolutely shocking skills.

Doubt he'd be commentating or boundary riding.

Simmo throwing shade at Schoey throughout the season would be very entertaining.

 

[bzparkes]

Simpson and Petrie both working at Paywise, according to Brayshaw. Says both report to him, lmao.

It’s not entertaining when it was free. Be stuffed if it’s funny now when it’s on a pay service

Shai, narkle and powel pepper were best mates growing up apparently. Potentially it was a sweetener on freos end?

Shai's reportedly on a million dollars a year.
He's coming back home.
That's his sweetener.

Suns swoop to pinch ruckman from Dockers

Gold Coast have pinched ruckman Max Knobel from under Fremantle's nose in the AFL rookie draft.

www.abc.net.au

This time it was Gold Coast who pounced, selecting Knobel with pick four in Friday's rookie draft.

"Max is a player we have tracked closely since his draft year and also monitored his progress in the WAFL for Peel Thunder, where he's continued to develop," Suns recruiting manager Kall Burns said.

The 20-year-old ruckman didn't play a senior game in his two seasons with Fremantle, but had been promised a list spot for 2025.

Shai's reportedly on a million dollars a year.

Not our problem.

But looking forward to him being traded back to the tiggas for a 4th round pick in 3 years.

Should battle it out with Harley and see who comes out on top in terms of "Um" vs "Obviously"

 

[Byron_Clanger]

Must be picture day at the club today. The club's IG posted a short clip of Bo Bo getting some snaps in full gear

Add Mini into the battle with "OK".

God some of the questions being asked by journos are cringeworthy.

They could have asked ChatGPT to prep some questions for them. No prep at all.

Was just thinking the same watching Gross and Grego pressers.
"do you get media training"
"what do you think about the media scrutiny of draftees?"
"Do you think you'll ever go back and play Rugby again?"

These people are supposed to be journalists... sheesh.

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

Watched some YouTube highlights.

2006 comeback vs Geelong
2006 comeback vs Carlton
2006 Prelim (comeback vs Adelaide)

**** that was some team. No matter the scoreline I was confident we'd win. Just an insanely fit and confident team.

Take me back.
