I couldn't help but think how good King would look if he was in the side and we played like this. I know the questions are if not having him makes us more dynamic, but I have to believe the coaching staff can integrate him. He's too good and too talented - but hopefully the last month has shown...

I've been super critical of him this year, but Bonner's last few weeks have been really good. He's added something to our backline and provided a good outlet on the rebound.

Absolutely. It was something we haven't seen as much this year, it has such a big impact!!

It was so good to see.

He has struggled this year but Membrey's attack on the ball a few times in the last couple of minutes was absolutely immense. Awesome win.

I wouldn't see that outcome as disappointing at all.

If we can get a quality first round pick for Battle then we absolutely need to be prepared to lose him.

He should've been moved last year, this off-season makes sense too. We need wholesale changes, and a new mix. Should also listen to see what teams want for Marshall.

Seeing King's development is sad. He's always been the key to us going on with last year, and he's let us down and then some. Our midfield is embarrassing. We should be looking to trade Steele at years end too.

This has been the case for over 2 years. It needs to change as soon as possible, he's not good enough.

Just chiming in with my yearly (and I think this makes 6??? years??) 'if Seb Ross is anywhere near the midfield we have a hard ceiling as a middling team' post.

The Max King dilemma is real, before he was hurt he looked completely out of sorts in front of goal. What does the club do?

True! And that means he's the best choice, right?

We don't want to talk about it. But it's pretty clear.

I am so proud of the strides our club is taken toward a new era. new talent, better gameplan and we're in pretty much every game. Crouch being out made the decision around our midfield fairly simple in the short term...but the question around Steele is still there. Can he lead us in the way we...

I'm not worried about where we finish now. Anywhere, anytime. Heck - GIVE US the final on the road. How good is that experience for our younger guys? Our more senior guys too. King is built for finals, he could truly erupt.

I'm so so happy! I was overjoyed when Ross came back - and this is beyond even my expectation. We have something here...to really really build on!!

To be honest, we can't really worry about other games outside our control. Yes, the afl stuffed up. Syndey choked hard in the last quarter and it should never have come down to that. Let's go to Brisbane next week and finish the job!

Is Sinclair one of the best 5 players in the competition?

King is honestly such a huge key for our finals push. Our most important player, and the biggest difference maker our club has.

After everything...and I've been very critical of the last 10 weeks...(mainly because, you know - I've watched us play and it's clear as day we're off the pace for large chunks of the game) we have 10 wins. So excited to see what we do in the off-season. We should be looking to off load as much...

Billings is also done. Isn’t healthy. No impact. Bye 👋

Jones is done. Adds nothing.

Honestly this list needs a clean out. Ross is not the MAKN issue here, unless you forgot the last 2 years under Ratten.

Steele hasn’t been a very good captain has he?

What is going on with this team. We are broken. This hurts to watch. WHY

I might rate King waaaaay too high but to me it really starts with him after our midfield. Our midfield is still the biggest concern. What do we do going into 2024? I know that it can't be Crouch, Steele and Ross again.

You know both things can be true. Ross and co will have the off season to start shaping the list and figuring out how we progress moving forward. This isn't a finished product. But our effort yesterday was not good enough, don't get it twisted. Eagles may have had to respond, it may have been...

Can Steele be given a week off? Or in the seconds?

He's not better than King who is a generational forward. But he should be playing in the midfield full time and he's earned it. He's got incredible talent.
