Good call. This is a far bigger issue than footy for a number of these Melbourne players (and coaches).

That was in 2003 lol.

I’m eternally thankful Goodwin wouldn’t have had the money back then to wreak havoc.

Or if you look back at the Bombers, Goodwin is the common denominator.

Probably explains why Grigg nominated nationally. Love that Boileau wanted to stay in SA. Thankful we at least got her despite the horrendous draft concessions given to Port.

On top of potentially stealing our players, Port now get Lauren Young for free. And they’ll likely have the 1st pick to draft Goody next year (whereas previously it looked like we might’ve been able to get Goody in an open draft).

The Blue midfield has been shredded out the front of centre bounces this quarter with Crouch standing on the defensive side of the circle. He shouldn’t be anywhere near the team this year.

Or alternatively no teams willing to pay enough to trade in.

Fans of a team who won't be contending for a premiership until this bloke's at least 35 years old care.

You do realise every club was “made up”, right?

It’s fine for us to think that, but considering Morris makes a living off people leaking confidential info to him, I sure hope he doesn’t think that!

Anyone who watches F2 and F3 have seen him interviewed plenty of times. He comes across as extremely normal.

Safety cars affect the outcome of plenty of motorsports. It’s a part of the sport that all fans accept (until it goes against their favourite driver). If you don’t like it, definitely don’t watch NASCAR!

Late to reply to this, but none of those backmarkers could’ve possibly made any gains in the WCC, as you can see from the final standings. So no, it didn’t affect any of them enough to justify the fuss that Mercedes and their fans have laughably made.

That petty comment proves you do care.

Huh? He would’ve definitely let those lapped cars through; hopefully a bit earlier than Masi did so that they could all get through instead of just the ones that were impeding the front runners. But really, who cares that Ricciardo and a couple of other backmarkers didn’t get to unlap...

Hickey was immense for them this year. A number one ruckman was more valuable to them than Aliir.

Seed at 47.

The closest comparison is Melbourne trading pick 22 and a future 2nd for pick 26 and Langdon (who’d had 2 good years at the Dockers). Melbourne’s 2022 1st is a good offer for Dawson.

Those pick swaps aren’t the reason they won the premiership (albeit still acknowledging that Pickett and Bowey look like great picks). They won the premiership due to having early picks for the past 10 years (Petracca, Oliver, Jackson etc), some high profile trades (May, Lever, Langdon) and...

Is he worth a late 1st rounder? Probably. Is he worth an early-mid 1st? No. We’ve offered a late 1st rounder and Sydney turned it down. They’re being greedy and trying to get an early 1st off us, which would be valued at an early-mid 1st if they send a mid-late 1st back to us. If the Swans...

Horne would be a better fit for them if they hadn’t bizarrely drafted Phillips over McDonald last year. But with 5 young mids including Phillips already, they’d be better off with Callaghan now.

I wasn’t comparing them. I was curious about your comment that “it’s just sport” and implying that winning isn’t everything. Was winning more important than cheating (and the other illegal activities the Carlton cronies got up to back in the day)?

Did you celebrate Carlton’s 1995 premiership?

Roberts.

Sure. And the correct definition is a "once in a generation player". The muddied down version of it that Twitter people use these days isn't correct and can just be classified as a superstar.

If we're talking about recently, Carlton probably would've picked Walsh ahead of Horne-Francis if they were both in the same draft.

So most of them aren't actually "generational players/prospects". To be that, you need to be THE best of the generation.

Happens about every 2-3 years in most sports despite an actual generation being 10-20 years. People have short memories.

He’s not a generational prospect, that’s hyperbole. But the rest of your post is correct.
