Always love to see the guy with jumper 119 in the crowd when we play Port

We also had David Mensch

I remember rocking up to a semi final at Waverley in 1994 against Carlton to the news that Bairstow, Hocking and Couch (our starting midfield) were all late outs. We smashed 'em Gives me hope

No but surely Brisbane, hunting points, would have been happy with 1000

Not sure Mackie's going to be great at this role. First the talk of ridiculous lowballing, now we've traded, to my calculations, roughly 756 points in and 1600 out.

I don't believe so. As a contracted player I think your contract expires after the nationL draft. Different story if you're delisted

Yep, I really wanted narkle to work out. Seems a nice young guy and not afraid to speak up on indigenous issues - something the world needs more of. I always felt he just needed 20 odd games in a row to really get with the program, but unfortunately when the team is constantly contending that's...

Incredible career. I'm sure it's no coincidence that the club's fortunes turned around the moment he walked through the door Hard to believe his stature has risen since the siren sounded on Saturday.

Dangerfield for me. His last month he played like a guy who could pick up a team and drag it across the line with him, much like someone else we know At the start of 2007 i felt the choice of Harley over a younger ling made a statement that we were still pushing for a flag. Dangerfield would...

I changed my opinion in Scotty a few years ago. For a long time I felt he was a great people manager, but didn't rate him at all as a match day coach. For a few years there you could tell whether we'd win or not in the first 5 minutes. Plan B was stick to Plan A for three quarters, then Plan C...

Don't forget the temper trap channelling their inner meatloaf

I look at the selected side, sigh, and then remind myself that Jack Henry was left out for round 1 last year Not if they replace Higgins, Dahlhaus and Stanley

Farewell Jordan Clark. Now can we please have a no mullets policy?

I AM NOT CONDONING THIS COURSE OF ACTION!

Well, we better be banking on a Covid vaccine by round 1, otherwise our list will be a high risk age group

I'm increasingly disillusioned with our recruiting. We're bringinging in a 32 and 33 year old (by round 1), and it wouldn't surprise me if we make a play for an ageing ruckman like Stefan Martin or Todd Goldstein as well. In the mean time, we have Clarke, Ratugolea, Constable and Narkle who've...

The worst display of umpiring i can remember

No, more the fact that I'm struggling to remember much of a contribution over 100+ games now. A liability with ball in hand, and barely capable one on one. Its the oldest 'must have compromising photos of the coach' scenario.

Absolutely no idea how Kolodjashnij gets a game

Any part of this thread in particular? Or was it self halm by a drug dealer who domestic violenced Dean Laidley in Epping?

Every reference I can find on it says "They’ve also been handed a mid-first round pick next year, which is currently pick 11 " I take that to mean there'll be no free agency compensation picks and the like before hand, though would still think that can shift on draft night. Interestingly I...

It would still slide with father son and academy bids, surely

Does that make it three first round picks and a second for Tim Kelly? Score!

Good for membership!

Glad we punted on a tall given the multiple early picks. 201cm does seem extraordinaly tall for a key back, so will be interested to see how he develops.

I'm just hoping we hold our picks now - it's probably our best deck of cards since the 2001 draft

Pretty happy with this deal. We essentially trippled the return on our investment in two years. Will be barracking against the Eagles all of next year though to maximise that future 1st rounder!

Such a shame we took Jackson Thurlow two picks before Collingwood took Grundy

Would have been embarassed if that won us the game
