Richmond and maybe North should blow past us for third spot on that table next season. In fact will Richmond take top spot off Carlton before Tassie enter the conversation?

His players loved him to bits though.
there was also the time when he was coaching SF that he had some sort of suspension which stated he was not allowed on the ground. So he used a cherry picker sitting just inches above the ground to give his 1/4 time and 3/4 time addresses.
They could have been talking about this half way through the season and they just continue to get worse - is it any surprise given Dillon, Kane and Meade are running the game. The Commission won't do it, but they need an overhaul already; the three of them are a laughing stock and ruining the game and yes, all are ego-maniacs and will each think they are responsible for what a successful season 24 has been in and how good crowds / memberships are. All are out of touch.

The AFL average for left footers taking set shots from that part of the ground - on the left-hand boundary line, 30m out and beyond – is just 37 per cent.
And this was Daniher, the ultimate 50-50 man if ever there was one.
But recent history shows we shouldn't have been surprised when the towering full-forward perfectly executed his drop punt to split the middle.
In five previous shots from that small part of the ground since moving to Brisbane ahead of the 2021 season, Daniher had nailed four of them. He now has five from six, an incredible strike rate of 83 per cent.
Not only did Daniher kick the two clutch goals against the Giants, he also did something few others have done in 2024 – beat Sam Taylor in a one-on-one.
The contested mark that preceded Daniher's final goal was just the third time this year Taylor had been beaten from 52 one-on-one contests.

“It reflects poorly on you”: Gerard Healy’s good, bad and ugly from the Semi Finals
The best and worst bits from the weekend.
www.sen.com.au
Gerard Healy has had a go at the adjudicating of the push in the back rule in this article. He points out 5 examples over the weekend which all directly resulted in goals which brings me to my point... why would we want a rule so strictly enforced that it reduces the number of goals kicked? If we had it Healy's way, those goals wouldn't have been kicked.
I understand huge shove outs shouldn't be allowed, but holding your position and pushing should be okay IMO.
