I’d join you, but I need to save running capacity for my victory lap.

She didn't come too far from winning the Fred last season in less than half a season at full forward.
I think she's a chance of beating okeydoke7 to 1000 goals

So am I, based on okey's end to last season.

sausageroll, did you know I've kicked the 55th most goals in league history?
That's really funny to me. 998 doesn't seem like very many at all. Whatever Tarkyn_24 has, though, is most impressive.

Did you know I'm the 21st highest goal kicker in the league and have never played full forward?sausageroll, did you know I've kicked the 55th most goals in league history?

Y\And you know I don't like being nice to Tarkyn_24 but I've played more games with him than any other player and don't remember him ever playing full forward in any game I've played alongside him. And he's the highest goal kicker in the league!
For someone who's played almost exclusively as a full forward, okeydoke7 really seems to be taking his time to reach the 1000 goal milestone. Wasn't he expected to reach it by the middle of last season?
His CV update has been on hold for quite a long time. No matter he doesn't post it as much as he used to.

Great points, snags. Perhaps okey needs a position change. We're all still finding our place in this league, after all. I still hope that, one day, okey will find the best position for okey.

Can we also have those times in WA time in case there's a deadline to meet and people in WA somehow suddenly forget there's a time difference on a rule that's always been the same?

Maybe he could have a crack in the backline or at 2nd interchange where we've clearly had the majority of our goal kicking success
I even kicked a couple of goals for thhe opposition last season? I didn't notice that achievement on okey's CV.

okeydoke7 has played 378 games, but only one player in the league (beez) has shared 100+ of those as a teammate.Maybe he could have a crack in the backline or at 2nd interchange where we've clearly had the majority of our goal kicking success

I sure hope okey isn't a BAD EGG.

The idea that I’ve played every game at full forward is flawed.
I started my career in defense and spent much of my career in and out of love with the league, being relegated to pockets and flanks when my posting warranted the demotion.
Posting well enough to warrant my preferred position, full forward, shouldn’t be a criticism. It is weird and flawed to devalue the 1000 goals because I’ve played in the full forward position a fair bit - of course I have! That’s the bloody achievement!
Though I’ve had more seasons at FF than Tarks has, he’s also played 161 more games than me. I respect how good he has been across multiple positions and I love the rivalry. I’ve always been a Tarks fan.
Tarks is rightfully on top of the goal kicking despite not being a FF because he’s had longevity and has done it without trying - worth celebrating.
I’m the best pure full forward. I’ve only played 378 games because when I was inactive I retired (a few times) and spent lots of time off rather than compiling meaningless stats.
Both Tarks and I have had very different career paths and strengths to get there, but in a few hours we will be the only 1000 goal kickers in the league. Let’s celebrate that.

That's a lot of words to say you've played literally every game at full forward, okay.

Poor beez.
I’ve been a turncoat all of my career for several reasons. Firstly, it rejuvenates me and keeps me interested. Secondly, it suits my persona. Thirdly, I once had an ambition to play for the most clubs ever.
Interestingly, since my impressive return to form these last few seasons, I have stayed loyal to the Swamprats. This is now my 4th season in a row with them! Something of a record for me. And a credit to how fun the Rats are - I don’t need rejuvenation, I’m with some legends.
I’ve been tempted to return ‘home’ to the Demons a couple of times in that stretch, but their recruitment team are brain dead so I went off them.
