    Was the report he wanted to go to Victoria for family reasons or he wanted to go to Essendon for family reasons?

    Such a good game to watch. Definitely need to find myself a Demons guernsey (and going off my cheers tonight I’ll get number 31 on it)

    If I had a Melbourne Demons guernsey I'd be wearing it all week.

    Wanting Melbourne v Port in the GF. Would be funny to see the umps not know what to do if its Cats v Dogs though. Free kicks all round!

    Vic biased 'national' media

    The quite balatant and unapologetic nature of the anti-GWS media that floats around the AFL is part of why I can't get behind the game as a hardcore fan. I will still follow the Giants and watch games where I can but I feel no attachment to the league. At no point have I ever felt like I've read...

    Classic media, make up a story, continue repeating it until it comes true. If it doesn't, ignore the fact you said it in the first place.

    Oppo Camp Non Giants AFL discussion

    Will be interesting to see how the AFL goes about starting up a team in Tasmania. Do they look at the GC/GWS expansion plans as a guide or try something different? I'm sure there's loads of people out there who would be happy to see them get the same draft concessions we did and not get angry or...

    Lockdown Mk 2

    I'm starting to feel like all the press conferences are the same. Gladys calls for more vaccinations. Brad Hazard puts on his huffy voice. Dr Chant gets flustered. It's feeling less and less about public health and more and more about political position. Don't even get me started on Brad Hazard...

    I gotta be honest, I don't really like either of the new guernseys. The new home still looks a bit odd to me.

    So that’s the North Melbourne deal AC kept mentioning in the draft night video.

    I don’t know what the point of changing our home guernsey design would be. We’ve had it through our whole existence as an AFL club. I like it too, it’s simple in design but unique to us.

    I might be in a minority on this but the only one I really like is the white clash design here. I feel like the “main” two need white on there to break the colour.

    Couldn't see a thread relevant to merch but wanna throw out a question to anyone who might have a view. The Club is doing the big online shop sale which I have taken advantage of. Two pairs of playing socks included. I was expecting them to be the typical long footy sock length (the photos...

    I think I’m gonna stay off BigFooty today. Having (stupidly) tried to read the main draft board thread about Jezza and thinking it’s just the same people going around in the same circles over and over it’s not really worth the time anymore. Waiting until it’s all over now.

    Good to see us still getting deals done. Hopefully Prueuss can be that matured ruckman we've been searching for.

    Which deal gets done first and/or which would be first priority for the club? Cameron/Caldwell/Hately/Preuss?

    I wonder if there’s been massive assumptions that the offer we put to Jezza is all we can afford, not just what we valued him at?

    True. But are we more likely to convince a player with a few years in the AFL system to stay at our club or a wide-eyed teenager who is overwhelmed by the lights of the big time?

    Surely as a club we look for a player in the trade rather than just picks. It’s clear our retention of draftees hasn’t been the greatest, with many leaving after their second season. Why continue to take the same risks over and over? Less focus on the draft IMO.
