If we win the flag this year I’d quite happily start season 25 Owen three.

I’m replacing my usual hub with the voluptuous melts of pies fans about the free kick countToo horny to sleep
Yeah I saw that too. Hoping it was just a little knock. But we'll find out soon I'd suggest.
Wood will unfortunately be out for a while so I think Byrnes' spot will be pretty safeByrnes played an underrated game for his 50th game, he did a lot of the hard in and under grunt work to set up our better players.
He did enough to earn his 51st game next week.
Not sure Moose makes it. He can be the Josh Houlihan of the group.2001 draftees: Ball, X Clarke, Dal Santo, Goose, Joey.
2021 draftees: Sharman, Nas, Owens, Windhager, Moose.
20 years between drinks, but is it time to recognise this year as the one that turned us around?
Nas - I can't say much more that hasn't already been said. He's gone from a skinny kid who noone really wanted us to draft to a potential All Australian in the space of 3 years. Yes, he was always the best kick in the draft, but most wanted Vic boys Sinn, Chesser or Hobbs - inspired choice!
Owens - when Mitchito hits, you stay hit. He has such a presence around the ball, you can see his opponents sense the pressure. The guy is a beast, the term contested bull gets thrown around flippantly but he genuinely scares the opposition.
Windy - I think it was Stav who described him as dynamic and that's easily the best was to describe him. The attack on the footy tonight was first rate, a little Lenny like in a contest in the way that you know what you are going to get in tight. Impossible not to love his endeavour, could become a real barometer and super important in a midfield that has been light on.
Sharman - from the midseason draft, but he's still just a pup in footy terms. He offers an amazing point of difference to the forwardline. Imagine putting your best defenders on King, Membrey and Owens - then Sharman who is probably our best kick at goal gets the 4th 'tall'. Yes the other 3 get the love, but Cooper is massive for us.
At the game it's the work rate that impresses from a lot of our youth. Windhager, Byrnes, Wilson, Henry etc all run end to end at a phenomenal pace and their work ethic is first rate. Really impressed with Sharminator too, he did a mountain of running in that match. He has an awkward gait but he is effective. He ran flat out to cover players that weren't his and was end to end all night.
Henry is the first player in a long time to make me lose my words! Wow!
As some have mentioned,NAS is now elite.
Bit concerned about the marks we give up, the lack of winning taps to advantage and our second ruck. We fix that and 2 of our kids become elite kids and top 2 is in our future.
This is his breakout season. He literally embarrassed Naicos in a few 1v1 contests. Beast.It was windy desire to win every ball he could that stood out. He threw himself at everything
Was good to see he got through the game without injuring himself again. 15 touches at 48% tog, looked rusty a couple of times but not bad for his first game back.Can we give a shout out to Zac jones aswell, thought he played well
What a win! Reckon Jones was important after coming on, adds another dimension to the midfield
