JL's been on the board almost 6 years. If he hasn't been able to exhibit any real influence by now, then he never will.

I'm not usually one to jump on Barrett and Lloyd's coat tails but they're spot on here. Gavin Bell seems like a great guy but the decisions since Vozzo left the footy department need to be examined. At the end of 2021 Vozzo joins the club executive as senior corporate counsel, and instead of...

While the West has always been a rag, the descent to the bottom has been sped up since Jakeb Waddell came on board as sports editor. He's a bloke in his mid-20s who lacks the experience and nous for the role, and he is completely out of his depth. He basically went from editing the South West...

As an aside, thought Fitzpatrick was thoroughly uninspiring from the outset - right from fumbling through his very first question On SM-G985F using BigFooty.com mobile app

Mckenzie + Busslinger + Hewett + Clarke would be a sensational result. On SM-G985F using BigFooty.com mobile app

I don't want Allan at 12/13 - I just think that's where it'll land. This is just me, but I prioritise clean ball handling over almost every other facet (other than clean disposal) and from what I've seen Hewett isn't the cleanest. Not to say he doesn't have elite attributes but I'd rather pass...

That's why I floated George - I doubt we draft George if Phillipou is our first pick (positionally similar) however if we get McKenzie, I can see George being the guy at 21. IMO McKenzie and Phillipou suit our needs in different ways, so either of those guys would be a win at #9

That HS mock draft was absolutely laughable. "Fills an area of need for West Coast". Ridiculous assertion. I took a keen interest in McKenzie this year after it emerged he was not going to be available for STK as an NGA player. He has a lot of the attributes we need as a midfielder, so look...

Honestly, this should have been the first thing that happened during the post-season "review" which resulted in everyone getting promoted. If for some unknown reason they wanted to maintain the dual role I'd suggest Beatson is the best qualified in any case. He's been at Sydney for over 15 years...

Rohan O'Brien's role probably needs looking at, and they need to throw everything at Kinnear Beatson. IMO head and shoulders above everyone else in that space, and has a proven track record across two extremely successful non-Victorian clubs. Aside from the obvious leg-ups with the Swans...

What I hope will happen: 10: Erasmus 29: Draper 35: Conway 68: Clark What will probably happen: 10: Chesser 29: Sheldrick 35: Hough 68: Schlensog

Jeez, fair bit of love for Essendon - name-dropped 18 players plus Rutten, and the only praise for GWS was "gee they're ill-disciplined" and (rightly) admonishing Finlayson.

This infuriates me. This podcast refers to "the stats that show the WA teams are 'home track bullies'". https://linktr.ee/ESPNFootyPod Yet how many media punters pointed out that we are the only team IN VFL/AFL HISTORY/ to go through a season unbeaten in Victoria? That'd be zero.

I think that's where a bit of this anxiety is from - Dogs and Saints games are danger games, which reinforces the importance of getting out there with a W tonight - knowing what's to come

Thanks man. I do think it's a danger game but I would love nothing more than Bailey Williams clunking a few and TB giving Joey a bath. I'm usually pretty pragmatic and realistic but struggling tonight!

Might just be me but I have a bad feeling about this one. Heppell and Hurley are big ins and I can see Saad walking it out of our F50. Conventional wisdom says that we are still a stronger, better-drilled side but with 3 of our top 6 most important players (IMO) riding the pine, I have a bad...

Where's the bias? Also, how's big Al popping up for some home improvements 🤣

I pointed out to Laughton and Morris that the only GF Review podcast they didn't record was the one where a non-Victorian team won (3 out of the last 4)

Nostradamus lives

Plus it ignores the very simple equation that Kelly is still on a basement-level salary, whereas Gaff is on "$1 million a season" so how would Geelong fit him into the salary cap anyway? This is coming from the guy that said he "dreads another West Coast grand final "

Yep agree - very few players are worth that on the trade table but hypothetically if Kelly chooses Freo, what is our contingency plan? Do we take our picks to the draft and try bring in a young midfielder, or should we continue to be active and try and beef up our midfield through trades? As...

For argument's sake let's say Freo offers Tim Kelly 7 figures and Geelong get Freo's two top-6 picks (following the Hill trade). If we miss out on Kelly, who should we be targeting?

What Robbo conveniently overlooks is the 4 goals he kicked in the Elimination Final, and he still managed 49 goals for the year. Sure, he's facing his mortality to an extent, but if you said that you'd get 22 games and 49 goals out of a 32yo key forward, you'd take it. Ultimately, the benchmark...

I really rate Nick Riewoldt as a media performer, but his comments were deadset rubbish. It was pretty clear that Barrass was making a point that your identity as a footballer is determined by winning premierships, so when you actually achieve what your whole life has been building up to, there...

I've missed all the shows for the past couple of weeks - been overseas for work. Did I miss anything? Surely we've been written off heavily, and we choked against Hawthorn?

Jesus - just listening back to the SEN Breakfast show and there was an ACTUAL DISCUSSION about whether the AFL will force an interstate team to host a Preliminary Final at the MCG like circa 2004. Apparently our esteemed hosts Whispy and Gaz Lyon completely forgot about the 2015 prelims.

He doesn't live in Busso anymore but I know Josh's cousin who grew up in Dunsborough and went to school in Busso. Phil well and truly a Busso boy who is now doing very well for himself in Melbourne.

Pretty sure Phil Kelly is a Busso lad

When Robbo challenged Riewoldt, his response was that the Tigers' game style was 'more sustainable'. Seriously, do these guys forget that we won the flag?
