Does anyone have the updated version for this year?

I agree with you that we get it good, however the deal should be that every club plays its home games at their home ground. The Big 4 can play each other at the G as the exception since they all want that and too many miss out if it’s held elsewhere. But Geelong, the Dogs, St Kilda and North...

Aren’t we still able to fill those spots with the SSP?

Max Or Ben? I thought it was Ben that we were chasing. Hard to imagine Max leaving the Sainters when they’re both lifelong fans.

I know clubs don’t do it anyway out of an unspoken agreement but would it be possible for another club to draft Wingard before Hawthorn despite him being in contract since they’ve now delisted him?

Seems like a waste by the AFL. Crowd and Pies would both draw a good crowd in Gather Round regardless of opponent so if they want to maximise attendances it makes more sense to play another non-SA team.

We're playing against a team that only finished a week earlier. Not a big deal.

You should have to specify which Sidebottom and which Pendlebury you're picking. I'd say Pendlebury for 2010 despite his massive last quarter in 2023 but I would pick old Sidebottom over 2010 version.

Epic couple of finals from someone I thought we should've moved on when Fly came in (I was wrong).

Ah the mythical Geelong salary cap which functions by every player on the list supposedly playing for peanuts.

I am old enough to have watched them. I agree those were two of the best I’ve ever seen play too but it’s a fact that key forwards are not that height any more.

Agreed but…my point is they wouldn’t play key forward today. They’re too short. McInnes is just tall enough. He’s not a big key forward by any stretch.

Because whether it’s worth it or not, if they wait a year they’ll get better than that as compo due to the size of the contract we are offering. Plus the chance to convince him to stay over the year like Sydney did with Papley when he wanted to go to the Blues.

Cripps is bigger than Wayne Carey. Pendlebury is taller than Gary Ablett Senior. Times have changed a lot since then.

Thats likely to be about pick 6 or 7. Take in a heartbeat if true.

Who is this Stephens people keep mentioning?

You can do this unofficially anyway by just keeping the membership in your name then updating the phone number and bank account to that person's details. No one asks for your ID to get into a game.

On tv they looked like gold the metal rather than the colour.

Very strong similarities to 2009 off-season too. We had two clear gaps in that list, an inside midfielder (filled by Luke Ball) and a ruckman (Darren Jolly). It's recruiting to fill holes that usually wins you a flag, not recruiting a superstar on big money. Note for Melbourne haha.

What were the gold bracelets everyone was wearing? Did the club make some sort of premiership bracelet? If so, did the whole list get them or just the 23 from the GF?

Do you have to play senior football to be eligible for the best first year player award? Almost not worth awarding it this year if that's a condition as the only first year player we had who played was Ryan and he lasted about 15 minutes, turned the ball over then got knocked out.

And this is why we should band together with Richmond and build our own stadium. Imagine how good it would be to have an 80k home ground of our own? It would solve most of the access issues and the atmosphere would be unbelievable, plus the amount of money the club would bring in would be...

Daicos has replaced Pendles already. Pendlebury was huge in the GF but for some of the year he’s been well below what he used to be. I wonder if Noble could potentially be a replacement for Sidey in time. I’m not suggesting he is as good but with his run he could move to a wing. In the...

I thought McLuggage’s late shot on Daicos was worse personally. Very cowardly to lay into someone airborne with his back turned with no intention to contest the ball. Cameron’s was nothing too bad, just a moment late, nothing more than a free kick.

It's not a Legends Membership, it's the waiting list to become one.

Assuming we are on the automatic renewal so shouldn;t be inconvenienced. The waiting list would be for new people.

Interesting that there’s now a waiting list for Legends memberships at $660 a year. Seems to only include general admission access to Melbourne games only.

I saw that at the family day too and was a bit concerned but then saw footage of him partying with the players the night before and looked to be having a great time. Potentially hungover...? He was on the ground after the game also so not sure what you're referring to regarding before the game.

So happy Goldstein going to the Bombers.

Will it be actual footage of what’s happening or just random images of the presenters saying, here’s some more votes without us being able to see like last year?
