And the astonishing stat is when those 8 play each other 50% will lose and 50% will win. LolI am tipping that 8 out of the 18 teams will make the finals. Take it to the bank!

Don't quite get the knock on Day when the club had extremely limited resources to facilitate a trade with a name player when none were OOC and you are asking a player (doesn't where that player is located in Australia) to basically uproot their life for likely a one year deal and Day is already based in SEQ.
Day just makes sense, can't believe anyone can't see it any differently.

Don’t think there are too many people knocking it’s just a very loud minority on this one.Don't quite get the knock on Day when the club had extremely limited resources to facilitate a trade with a name player when none were OOC and you are asking a player (doesn't where that player is located in Australia) to basically uproot their life for likely a one year deal and Day is already based in SEQ.

That's because he was injured, I think we can rely on Hipwood because he's kicked goals during the finals do you honestly believe we can rely on Day
And that's how I see things as well. With all of the adversity chucked at us this year, for us to win the flag was a great effort. And what it will do for us going forward, it will give us great confidence & greater belief that we can win despite the footy gods being against us. Getting that "Can we win one" monkey off our backs should free us up from the start of 2025. We won't become complacent like Collingwood did in 2024. And we definitely WON'T organise a big get together prior to the season to watch a replay of the premiership like the Pies did! They were still in celebration mode in March this year!The way I figure it we had all the crap things that could happen to us in a season in 2024 ,including losing Daniher at the end . The only good thing to come out of it was that we hit form in the last 4 games , had a bit of luck in a couple of those and played really well against a dumbstruck opponent in the last game.
So with even luck 2025 should be a good year.
Just to make the case more bullet proof....Stewie Dew will be heavily consulted prior to any Day decision.Don't quite get the knock on Day when the club had extremely limited resources to facilitate a trade with a name player when none were OOC and you are asking a player (doesn't where that player is located in Australia) to basically uproot their life for likely a one year deal and Day is already based in SEQ.

Rightio
No current season stats available
I wonder if Dom Fay gave a freudian slip at the end of the last podcast with a name that he had heard earlier in the year as a Joe replacement.Hearing reports that Curnow, Max and Ben King, Oscar Allen, Fogarty, Hogan and Mitch Lewis all expressed interest but we knocked them back because we wanted Sam Day.
Joe even asked to come back and we said we don’t have a spot for him anymore, that’s gone to Ty Gallop.
Why do you say that? We are very thin on the ground for tall forwards with any experience... Day could simply be back up.If we go Day it's very clear we value keeping the same structure and he's the best fit we could get
I wouldn’t worry too much about Collingwood. Their reliance on old players and winning close matches is not a premiership formula.It is really interesting to hear the VIC media pundits talking about the Lions now. Six weeks ago we couldn’t win the flag because Daniher was unreliable, couldn’t be trusted,didn’t provide enough effort etc etc. Now the narrative is that he was our best player and we can’t win it without him. And apparently Collingwood are going to be the team to beat because they have brought in a back flanker who is going to carry them to the top. The BS they spout is incredible.
