You'd think they would have said, hope not.

He's the best of the lot

Totally agree - potentially not updated from last year as McPherson isn't on there either as a development coach

 

[Cromulant]

Totally agree - potentially not updated from last year as McPherson isn't on there either as a development coach

Which is bad in itself

 

[Danger in Texas]

Totally agree - potentially not updated from last year as McPherson isn't on there either as a development coach

Think this is most likely. Randall not there either

 

[jackster83]

The club hasn't moved on from 2023. On and off field.

 

[jenny61_99]

Ok, this is getting silly now. I was merely responding to you. It seems we both get piled on here. So let’s shake hands and move on as fellow supporters? I’ve only got Sanders on ignore too. So we have that in common. Like I said, I’m happy to put my hand up if I’m wrong about my intel.

Pointless having Sanders on ignore..

Miss too much entertainment

I don’t think we have anything to do with the site. Think it’s an on going bug bear.

 

[jenny61_99]

Well there’s that, but hasn’t he been banned?

 

[cleanhands]

Well there’s that, but hasn’t he been banned?

Unfortunately I think so

 

[Mostyn]

I'd be stunned if we don't trade pick 15 to Richmond. They have a heap of later seconds and thirds they won't be able to use, and it will come with a wink wink nudge nudge that they won't bid on Ashcroft at pick 1.

You wouldn't be able to do that until draft day itself as you wouldn't have the list spots beforehand - but yeah, you could do it then.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Full rebuilds take a decade or more not because they take that long necessarily but because there are often failed attempts and numerous **** ups along the way. Eventually the clubs get the right combination of people and they move forward.

We're still in the failing and ****ing up stage.

We need to move on from the ****er upperers

I’m pretty sure I will first

He must have been hamstrung.

From the main Lukosius thread. Don’t know who this poster is or their history. Just posting coz it’s a rumours thread. Fun and games.

 

[ftmch]

Unfortunately I think so

Define unfortunately

 

[Tex Danger]

they don't usually disclose their source so that's really interesting if he said that... port will up their luko offer after tonight. they looked shocking forward. im convinced luko would do betted at adelaide though because he would get the 4th best defender not the best KPD

He definitely said port are saying this. Unclear if he’s actually saying port directly said it or coukd even be second hand reporting if the general narrative that that is the belief (if so even less valid)

But it’s not really a private off the record conversation to think port woukd say our understanding is crows can/will offer more than us, they’d say that happily (probably encouraging) reporters to report on that

 

[Samcro24]

Well there’s that, but hasn’t he been banned?

You must have him on the Iggy

 

[beartoo]

Sounds like Pear bs or Luko's manager trying to up the price or even GC hopeful for way over the odds. Or all 3.

The players made Goodwin, not his Coaching .....if not for a 15 minute extravaganza from Gawn, Petracca, and Oliver ....MELB lose that GF, and Goodwin is viewed entirely different

A sliding doors moment

Jackson not Gawn

There was still something about how they came out after half time that Goodwin gets credit for, the coaches role is to get the players up for those exact moments.
