    Can’t justify a new thread - still want to post it though, (Part 2)

    My first introduction to Billy was at the Port Fairy Folk Festival in 2023 - saw him twice, he was great. Loved his music and the sort of guy you'd like to have at a dinner party.

    Player Watch Reef McInnes

    Got down to training last night and so it's the first I've seen of Reef and the boys live. Thought the same about Reef, he seemed very confident and comfortable in the role down back. I was surprised that he had so much stamina - none of the hunched over with hands on knees stuff that was...

    Pendles doesn't move off 204! That's brave.

    Wonder if Noah as captain has led to Rowell's recent media "releases" regarding other clubs being interested in him?

    Nice tap on Naics - still prefer the quick hands to JDG in the '23 GF (not sure I have a more favoured GF memory from '23)

    Looks like a good call, any idea where Mike Ablett rated him in the draft order? Wonder if he's looking for a role in recruiting - I know a club that's in the market!

    No surprise there, would have been amazed if you didn't get tickets. Can't wait to see the boys in action - reach out once you know where you'll be and I'll grab a beer for you - least I can do for all the great work you do.

    There's a lot of competition for the HFF, and he'd be behind Pendles and Perryman for the defensive mid role. If Membrey can force his way into the best 22, then maybe he could establish himself a role rotating between mid-field and forward line as the 3rd tall (haven't seen anything to suggest...

    Alex Condon (Future Cat B Candidate?)

    Are the NBA draft watchers referring to him as a basketballer with a football background?

    Training Pre-season updates 2025.

    What caught my eye with him pre-draft (other than my initial confusion with the son of David Hayes) was that he appeared in Kevin Sheahan's Top 40, but he didn't get a mention in any of the other Phantom Drafts that I was watching - early days, but he looks a bargain - him and Bobby in the same...

    VFL VFL pre-season 2025 (list changes, updates)

    Agree, especially if Steene and Smit can stay fit and show some improvement - too often last year we were un-competitive in the ruck and centre-bounces resulted in our mid-fielders chasing butt. It would be nice for players like MacRae, Allan, Sullivan, HH and Long to get some clean ball at...

    I expect Sidey to start on a wing and then assume a run-with role with one of our opponent's mid-fielders - that means that one of our centre-mids needs to spit out to a wing (or possibly a forward flanker moves up the ground) - can't see Pendles taking on that role, so possibly Perryman as the...

    6 minutes a quarter, each quarter is almost a quarter of the game - add to that the time that he'll spend on the bench recovering, the time that Mihocek spends on the bench recovering and you'll have around half the game where our two best tall forwards aren't playing together!

    Toast The New Carlton Thread: Lukey Sayers adds his utensil to the wooden spoons

    Unless the AFL has evidence supporting the assertion that Sayers didn't post the image, then the AFL can't find that the post wasn't sent by him, they can only say that, given the account was compromised around the time the image was sent (not sure how they've established that), that they...

    If he needs to put on "size" then he's better off doing that now under the NBA testing regime than he is under the AFL's!

    That's rotten news - don't wish injury on anyone and he's had his fair share. Understand how the Port supporters would be feeling, the loss of Dixon and now this, takes a good player out of an area of the ground where they don't have a lot of experience.

    The issue with Curnow isn't his height, it's that his arms are so long that he can scratch his ankles without bending.

    Agree, my key uncertainty is JDG's fitness. My Top 10 items are: 1. JDG - to what extent will he be able to play mid-field minutes? 2. Titch - will he get the foot right and what impact has the interrupted pre-season had on his role in the side? 3. Injuries - any new injuries (hopefully there's...

    The final test match in the Australia v India series showed how a best 11 (or in footy terms, a best 23), can shift significantly. Over the five tests, the Aussies added Boland, Webster and Konstas. All three played a significant role in the outcome of the final test, with Boland and Webster...
