Humphrey missed a fair chunk of it with a knee.

They've all had injuries as well. Some hamstrings. It happens.

I think they were more just gutted because he'd put in so much work and then to have it happen, rather than agonising over the severity of it.

Yep. I nearly put in public urineration but it's not really an injury lol.

Yep it's our shortest break I think. 4/5 day break. Brutal turnaround. But we could probably throw in a few fresh guys as the Bombres might be quite young as well. If we can win it out of the middle we should be able to kick a score.

If it wasn't a real short break (Sat-Thurs) against *, I'd pencil that in as their forward group lacks goal power.

I think at least 5 or 6 wins. Split at least one against Tigers, Dees, Blues, Crows and potentially the Dogs. GC (gather round), Bombres (short break might hurt though), WCE or Freo in Perth/Bunbury. I reckon we're chance against Saints, Swans, Cats and Pies at Marvel as well.

Yeah maybe he's a bit like a Dangerfield type that you get him cherry ripe for finals run. I still reckon you'd take that impact on a game over some of the other guys in his draft year who have also had some injury issues. Just for context some of the past/present injuries the same draft class...

Hope they've got the red and yellow cards in their pockets.

What did he do to you? This is Junkie and WillPhil levels of dislike lol.

Today's training report - Really disappointed with the lack of intensity in the Zumba sessions.

I don't disagree with most of that. Your drafting would have to be absolutely on point though. Would you have signed Stephens/Fisher for less years? Darling? Parker? Likely Simpkin leaves to get that contract elsewhere, so likely a trade/FA situation in that alternative. What domino effect...

BS. He was rubbish. Even my WCE mate told me he was no good. Horrible trade.

Agree there will be a shuffle going on given Logue/Chom/Mattlock/Wawson down back. But I hope we're thinking about the replacement of Darling, Pink, Teakle and Kal Dawson soon enough. Add at least one key forward to develop at VFL level this draft imo and ideally add McCartney in 2026 if he...

Agree. It's still a bit more bargaining power with the team that holds the player to contract.

The funny thing is he doesn't even care about using the pick in the "overrated" draft every year. He wanted to trade for a mature key forward that isn't really on the market because most will end up re-signing with their existing clubs and none of them are worth pick 2 anyway. Basically he'll...

I think we'll have to draft it. The FA/Trade market is a bit thin as most will re-sign with their clubs imo. It might be someone we have already (Chom, Mattlock, Goad, Maley) but given we tried to get Jack Whitlock as well suggests we are after a genuine key forward. The development this year...

Yep would not surprise me that's what they're planning, but whether Reid wants to actually go there not sure.

Sounds like either a Lifetime/Hallmark movie or adult film title.

Not sure. Must be a big fan of Luke Kornet from the Celtics, who often does this lol.

Most of your criticism is fair. We haven't been flying given our results the last 5 years. We'll likely still be bottom five even with 5-10 wins given the young age and experience profile of the group. Obviously I'd like us to get as many wins as possible but we'll still be balancing giving the...

Must admit he didn't stand out to me a few weeks back at training, but it was tight spacing. Goad stood out more with his movement, but both still a bit raw and still learning the footy IQ and craft. But it wouldn't surprise me if one or both rapidly develop quicker than we think learning off...

It was outrageous. Apparently we should've traded him for Ivan Soldo.

Good to see you've found your next target after LMac is phased out. Exciting times.

Swingman. Kicked goals when sent forward but can also play down back. Could be our Roughead version.

Your general point is fair, but last I checked Viney is not the list manager responsible for player contracts. And trading out the future 1st, only time will tell as to whether it was a good move, largely dependent on Mattlock's development and what we do with the Tigers 2025 R2. But yes easily...

I'd probably rather Tomlinson if we went down that path.

Shush. Don't tell anybody, but an unnamed player said he's a jet and will play Rd 1.
