Maybe he did say it to his face? It's a single quote from a 200 page book. It's not a positive thing to say but it's also not the most cutting thing I've heard a player say about an ex-coach. Having said that - criticising a coach for being obsessed with football and improvement seems an odd...

I didn't realise this - but it's still saying to both perth clubs that they'll have one less flight to Melbourne, while North add two flights to WA as part of their plans.

Would suit St Kilda or Essendon

The difference is we didn't hand home games to other teams.

Except for that time Melbourne went after Brodie Grundy. That was one time where a good player should not have been pursued

And now we can determine ALL players weights simply by saying "so and so looks 5kg heavier than this guy". AFL really failed to plug all the leaks here

Jared Brennan Sorry wrong club. (It was such a weird and famous Lethal comment that he's the most talented player he's seen)

Quite amusing seeing us collectively trying to count to 44

Yeh but it's still shit for the people involved. Let's have some care for a player who gave everything

Yeh that Melbourne game looked like a real struggle. Couldn't get our game going at all in the last half. Also, playing in Cairns is absolutely sapping

They'll be banking on a having Curnow, Cerra, Walsh and Weitering available a lot more this season, and if those four play full and effective seasons it'll be much more than a 12 point per game gain for them. But hope is not a strategy. And if you can't absorb injuries in this league you'll...

I wonder if he teaches a unit on self awareness

It'll be of epic proportions. Yze has no chance.

Even trying to get a decent ruck on the list would have been good. "Nobody was available" is a fair argument to a point - but when clubs identify a need and go hard at a player they can often dislodge a contracted player. But even if they tried their best and absolutely couldn't get anyone...

Tell ya what - the more you look at the Richmond tank job the worse it looks. Unlike us when we moved on/lost all of Mitchell, O'Meara, McEvoy, Gunston etc in a year or two -we had emerging youth that just needed more exposure. Richmond don't have that. There's no green shoots coming...

I think you have to look at what the goal of the trade period is for each club. Richmond did a cleanout - and one of the more extreme/effective ones we've seen. Total tank job for sure and would be very surprising if they don't get the spoon next year. (Compare to west coast and north in...

Carlton were probably the only team in the trade period to move on two very average players and somehow be worse as a list.

Shifty dudes love the grey area. They use jokes to test out their creepiness and when called out on they back track and say "don't take everything so seriously" Many a true word said in jest.

Well - I don't care much for the law a lot of the time if I don't think a law is serving it's purpose all that well. I've got some very liberal views on illicit drugs for example. So I'm genuinely exploring this topic rather than coming at you with judgement. And so yes - I really wouldn't...

Yeh ok so your argument isn't about role modelling etc. It sounds like it' smore about "you can do whatever the hell you want in private as long as nobody is around to be offended or hurt by it."

Very happy to have this guy on our team. I feel we're overstocked with defenders but I'm confident it's part of a plan. If you remember that dreaded Melbourne game where we came in with a whole gameplan focused on avoiding Lever and May - then hopefully you'll see us destroying the...

But this isn't how normalisation works unless you're a particulalry susceptible individual. Nobody watches a single thing (e.g a movie showing domestic violence) and then turns around and starts committing the next day. This would be classical conditioning or operant conditioning...

They've managed their cap/salary the opposite way to us. They're so top heavy and they've got no depth. If they have a smooth run with injuries they might be ok

So last year we rebuilt the forward line (Chol, Gunston, Watson, Dear all coming in the same year). This year was the backline rebuild. **** yeh. We just need one tall forward to emerge (Dear to hit a new level again, Lewis to return, Chol to level up) and a midfielder (McKenzie, Ward or...

How is Kennedy their 3rd highest goal scorer. No wonder they missed finals

If we can get one of McKenzie, MacDonald or Watson to shoot forward in development we'll have ourselves a very classy high impact player. Ward, Finn, CJ are more workhorses that will improve us incrementally I think. But yeh there's a lot of development in this group;

It's gonna be interesting watching Carlton's season. They really didn't bring anyone in - any improvement is going to come from less injuries than what they had in 2024. It's definitely not going to come from their emerging youth or high quality player acquisitions

I would be a bit nervous if I was a North fan with those imports. On the positive - it provides some experience and maturity around a team that has a lot of talented youth. On the negative - it can give a false dawn with a bunch of wins while still having a very underwhelming spine

Barrass not even listed in the players that West Coast traded out.

Very happy with that trade period. Was hoping for some unexpected spice/bonus players at some point. Our midfield still needs that extra ingredient and I'd love a key forward. But we've left the trade period with a much better list than we walked in with. A lot of strange moves from...
