I certainly hope so, but gee, there's just something about this year, different factors both internal and external which is making me a lot more uncomfortable. One thing for certain - I don't make a habit of booing ex-players. Next year might be different.

With all due respect, please don't refer to someone overreacting.

Goodness me - I've got a bad feeling for the future of this club right now. Feels like the guts are going to be ripped out every year for the time being, leaving us with an ageing list and forever inexperienced players picked up at the draft because for whatever reason/s, we can't get players...

If the interest in Stringer is actually lukewarm I'd be disappointed. Cadman is coming along well (better than I expected, probably thanks to no longer having Riccardi in the same team). Riccardi is 3rd fiddle tall forward. Doubt that he'll get a game in the firsts unless either Cadman or...

Would be nice to read or hear of just one player who wants to be traded TO the Giants. Even if it's wild speculation.

Considering the substantial player turnover this year, I hope the coaching staff look at positional change for the AFL and VFL team. Perryman wanted more midfield time. Knowing that in hindsight, and considering how poorly the midfield played this year, it makes me wonder why such a move wasn't...

Re: Adam Kennedy. The GWS media release is ambiguous, but according to Retirements/Delistings on the AFL website, Kennedy has retired.

That's almost like a President in their last days giving a pardon.

Right now, it appears Ch7 with all the personnel changes might actually improve their product in 2025, if not they're doing something. Whereas FoxFooty continues to wallow, if not sink further, relying on their overexposed 'talent' by playing musical chairs.

They should have sacked the producers of AFL360 first and IMHO, a long time ago. To let a much-watch show deteriorate into a boring same-old-same-old, week in week out Coaches Night, Players Night, Legends Night - they're the people who should have been shown the door before any announcer...

Then a year or two later, a Vic team offers them 7 years at $1m per season. :mad:

So given his love of abbreviations, he'll say, "More after the break on Footy Con."

Just seems odd to leave Ch7 after a prolonged period and then only last 12 months at Ch9 - unless perhaps an opportunity elsewhere has opened up. Retirement could well be his intention, but Fox calling extra games from next year and now Robbo leaving. Or maybe since that Ch7 exec has left and...

Leigh Matthews has resigned from Ch9. Could do worse than sounding him out for the job.

Shooting flames and spraying confetti might be a tad dangerous????

Going to see a half full MCG very, very soon.

Dean Cox might be Swans coach by 6pm Sydney time today.

Heeney could possibly be doing a Rayner from last week.

Cameron was paid a mark. Can't play on from a mark.

I thought Plugger was actually that tall guy from Men in Black.

Can't find the odds for a recalled first bounce. You'd think Sportsbet, Ned's et.al would have a market for it.

Usually it's all recorded (voice and instruments) but the performer's mic is open so they can sing live. You can offer hear the doubling-up when the recorded and live voice are out of synch.

Need gritty, heavy beat music to get the crowd worked up, not this light and fluffy recorded uninspiring crud. Better set an alarm for the game in case I nod off.

FoxFooty has gone down the 'if it's an opinion or a stat, let's have a sponsor' route. Kath's hair is out of control, that piece of irrelevant crud is proudly brought to you by Dove.

There's a forum on the downfall on FoxFooty. I wouldn't put it past them, unfortunately.

With FoxFooty being able to broadcast more games next year and his protector now gone from Ch7, I wouldn't be at all surprised if BT becomes the prodigal son. Back to the Future - BT on Fox in 2025.

Or in some cases refuse to see what's happening right in front of them.

Interesting chat. It shows how poor our fitness and conditioning staff was. And IMHO, Phil Davis came across as self-centred and totally unrealistic. Surely he knew in himself that he was no chance to perform at the level expected in a Grand Final. P.S. The audio is at about the 5 minute...

Amazing how much influence one particular Ch7 executive had. Now that they've left, there seems an influx of personnel and signs of a concerted change in their overall broadcast. One caller has left which seems to have gone down rather well. Hopefully a few more duds (who were probably...

Eddie McGuire can't whinge about the Swans Academy anymore considering the Giants appear to be fodder for the Victorian/Adelaide clubs as they pick and choose the guts out of our team after doing all the work to make them decent players.
