    Certified Legendary Thread Delusional Pearlers IV

    Yeah, it's stupid and I hate it, but from a narrow marketing perspective it makes a little bit of sense. They'd have audience persona data at AFL HQ that says something about NRL fans being parochial suburban fans who hate that their teams have abandoned them and are playing overseas. So the AFL...

    Preview Round 1: Essendon vs Hawthorne, MCG, Saturday 16/03/24 @ 1:45 PM

    We also had 15 less rotations. Would be a major reason as to why they ran over the top from midway through the last.

    Team Mgmt. Makeup of our team II - Strengths & deficiencies, player development

    Maybe. Maybe not. Would really depend on the natural improvement that the younger players have and also the leadership qualities of McKay, Goldstein and Gresham. Three mature players in three different sectors of the ground.

    Team Mgmt. Makeup of our team II - Strengths & deficiencies, player development

    Is your argument here that Heppell will be best 22 this year because he played games last year? My argument is that he played as many games as he did last year because the team lacks on-field leadership. A flaw that comes from being such a young side. Which we were, and will continue to be this...

    Team Mgmt. Makeup of our team II - Strengths & deficiencies, player development

    Of that cohort we had Hobbs (18 games), Perkins (23) and Menzie (21) play most of the season and then had ADJ (10) play a decent amount of games. Tsatas, Reid, Cox, and J Davey were injured for a large portion of the season but Tsatas and Cox did come in when they were available. Baldwin is...

    Traded #42: Massimoe D'Ambrosioe - Thank you for your service

    I saw him at the supermarket the other night. Had to do a double take because he was fully kitted out in team gear. Essendon hat, Essendon polo, Essendon jacket, Essendon pants. Even his shoes were red and black. Gave me a smile and a nod and was on his way.

    No, in that case I think that posters reasoning would be JDG should miss the full year.

    Naïve of me but I had no idea this was the case. The percentage from the betting companies would be significant and some of that would no doubt go back to the clubs, even those who've actively divested their gambling revenue such as the pokies. I wonder if the clubs know? Kind of like your...

    Yeah, two spots on the rookie list. You'd expect them to sign Eyre I think.

    AFL Player #13: Nik Cox - Subbed out vs GCS

    What? We drafted two tall kids who take longer to develop and both of whom have been injured. Perkins has shown plenty as well. Even players like JUH, Campbell, Thilthorpe, Henry and O'Driscoll have been good. Considering their lack of junior years, the 2020 draft is tracking fine.

    Recruiting AFL Draft Watch 2022 - Tsatas, Hayes, Davey x2, Munkara & Montgomerie

    I saw Tsatas at Richmond KMart a couple of weeks back. Someone dropped their receipt in front of him and he swooped up, picked it off the ground cleanly and gave it back to him just before the guy had to show it to the security guard. Clean skills. Impeccable timing. Not enough mongrel.

    With Alwyn still up in the NT supposedly Eddie Betts has had a fair bit to do with both twins this year. Maybe that's the Cats interest that's being reported.

    Recruiting AFL Draft Watch 2022 - Tsatas, Hayes, Davey x2, Munkara & Montgomerie

    I see your point, but I don't think he'd be saying he only wanted to play for Essendon behind closed doors either. This is all about getting the best possible deal for ADJ. I think I read somewhere that F/S picks can sign a 4 year deal as well, so there's a bit of wrangling still to go. Either...
