Another awesome episode, a must watch for anyone who bleeds red white & blue… Thanks so much

We need to get this appointment right. Would have hoped we were canvassing the talent pool long before now? We should be poaching who we want from other clubs like they always do to us. Not sure I’m happy with Peter Bell.

Welcome to the Western Bulldogs Cooper....make us proud Son!!

I am seat 1A on this kids bandwagon (I'll probably need seat 1B as well if they're like economy airline seats). In addition to his footy IQ is his ball handling, he's so clean. I don't know where this talk about him being slow comes from, sure he's no Usain Bolt but he's plenty quick enough. If...

I want Murphy so bad I'm prepared to live with Tom Gross with our second. I just don't see Murphy sliding.

I see a little Bob Murphy in his movement King which I like a lot however nowhere near his kicking skills. I'd be OK with a 2nd round selection for him.

I’m with you King, not overly excited by this selection. Let’s see what happens in a couple of weeks.

Of all the players that might be available at our pick this kid excites me the most. A fast brain and clean hands more than makes up for half a yard of pace.

Age, length of contract and $$$ would be the main reasons there weren't a number of clubs lining up for Jacko.. Never understood peoples expectations on what we were going to realistically get for him. If the shoe was on the other foot would we take on a contract like his and offer higher picks...

This 100%….

Unfortunately unless the player manager landscape changes this will never happen. Hence why they hold the balance of power we need them more than they need us. Especially the big agencies like Connors Sports Management.

Good take King, I think his reading of the play makes up for any mobility concerns. One on one strength needs a bit of work but another summer in the gym will go a long way.

People will laugh at me but I see a young Mark Ricciuto in him. Big shoes I know, maybe half a yard less explosive but similar attributes. I’ll see myself out 😊

We can’t blame the coaches for everything at some point the kid needs to take responsibility for his actions and efforts.

Let’s wait and see, if we’re cooking something in the background and want the money off the books we may expect a little less.

TDK and Darc would be the best Ruck combo in the comp, hands down IMO......

Anyone casting doubts on what the ceiling will be on this 18 year old kid is setting themselves up for egg on there face. He just looked better and better each time he took the field, he's competitive far from slow and he's not opposed to physicality, any reference to the contrary is simply...

He needs to play next year, thought there were oppurtunities this season for a game or two but it didn't seem to dent his confidence. Another full preseason and he should be cherry ripe. If we sleep on this kid for too long we'll only end up losing him. I'm very excited about his prospects.

I'd keep Macrae over CD if given the choice but admit they're close. I thought both were gifted contracts longer than I liked at the time. The game has gone to another level speed wise and there's less room to hide excess mids as part time forwards etc. We need to get more games into Sanders and...

Great communicator, experienced a competitive beast and driven to be the best. Sounds like good assistant coach credentials to me?

You're being too kind... I didn't recognise him he was that bad (and I like him)

Is JJ contracted for 2025 and wants a year more or does his contract end this year?

I know I might be in the minority but I'd be inclined to keep Bedendo for another year. He's improving week on week in the role he's playing and starting to benefit with some continuity. I'd tap Cleary on the shoulder before Dom.

After hours of stress trying to secure tickets entering codes that were not accepted we managed to get 12 tickets. The issue is we are separated in blocks of 4, 2, 2, 2, 2 and all over ground. Does anyone know if Hawthorn fans had the same issues?

Buku doesn’t have the footy smarts and defensive mindset to play Docs role.

I wouldn't classify this as out of the box?

And we need a couple of those types on the list

Absolutely wonderful to hear Crossy recall his time with us. A true competitor and clubman. Great interview as always Matty.

Time to unleash the Buss I say, no better time than this week. He was very good yesterday as the third tall along side Keath/JOD and has earned his chance. The kid has a great balance of attack/defence and a load of footy smarts. He's Cofield and Khamis in one player.

Fact or preference?
