The average supporter of other teams will only have heard of a handful of our list - Sicily, Jiath, Worpel, Wingard, Frost, Hardwick, Amon - maybe Newcombe, maybe Lewis, maybe Moore, maybe Scrimshaw. Plenty of supporters won't have heard of half of those.

Haven't been following too closely but am I correct that there are no preseason games this year?
I think you're right.
So 2 semi sanctioned practice games or nothing?

Name me any other employer that would go to such lengths to keep an employee happy?

I am not trying to be provocative but not sure I agree.
Looking at the HH info, finding housing is a regular club thing. Where, close to the club is a logical decision. Having a grand parent help is probably barely a consideration if a player is local, so having one come over is a tick if it was the clubs instigation, I don’t see this as remarkable though. Thinking about her, has the club supported her? Has she given up a job? Not saying the club has to do something but talking to a sought after former club wellbeing worker, they say yes.
In the AFL context, they do have a decent amount of support as it is needed, I see the HH info as a starting point.
Like I imagine most, I barely ‘know’ Tyler Brockman through club media. If some say he is level headed, extra time at home with a new child is the only decision. Hopefully times have changed where only veterans were told to return in January. Sure, there are aspects of being with teammates that are missed by Tyler not training in Melbourne. But he probably isn’t going to be near 100% if the club insists he train. Enormous trust and you would imagine commitment in 2023 when he does return(?).
2021 was a normal year? 2022 was injured for some if not all (there may have been more to it?).
If there is other things I have missed, happy to hear it.
Mods, delete if off topic.
Puopolo .... GOOD GOD !!!!
The selflessness of Dunstall, the leap of Knights, attack on the man of Andy Collins. I saw all the greats going back to the early 70's, Puopolo is my all time favourite. If anybody talks down my hero send them to my front door so I can gun them down ....... !!!

When Poppy flew for a mark I called out "The Flying Dwarf". 196 games, 185 goals and 3 premierships and one of the all time great pressure forwards.
Best of all Poppy was a genuinely great person often stopping for a chat after training and at Box Hill. A testament to his character is his signing on to play with his junior club Hope Valley next year. I'm hoping to watch Poppy play in the Adelaide Footy League when I drive to SA for the Hawks game in Gather Round.
