What are the odds that Sonia Hood, Jennifer Watt and Alistair Clarkson will have already forwarded a grovelling submission for the Centrelink Shinbeggars to receive more draft concessions. Seriously the stand for nothing rabble should be folded to avoid further embarrassment to the league and...

How can C7 justify employing the drug cheat Jab Watson as a commentator. Oh sorry, must be the father son rule to join his lame duck father Timmy.

I couldn’t be prouder of the way the young BHH played against the Tigs side which include 10 AFL listed players. Clarke, Coulthard, Greene, Hayes-Brown, Lefrau, McAuliffe, Miller, Ralphsmith, Smith and Trezise. The start of the game was brought forward to 10:00am because of the heat. Possibly a...

I posted this on Saturday. Bennett, Dear, Meek, Serong and Tucker lined up for the BHH. Busslinger, Clarke, D’Arcy, Macrae, Baker, Poulter, Bedendo, Scott, Jones and Keath for Doggies. We kicked with a difficult 3 to 4 goal wind in the first quarter. Scores 2.3.15 dogs to 2.4.16 BHH; 5.6.30 to...

WOW, talk about waiting to pounce and going early. Were you aware Curtin had a knee injury and didn’t resume training until 5 February. He then had an ingrown toe nail which further interrupted his preparation. I understand the excitement and hype over a 170cm player who is very talented however...

Agree sensational. Since the 2022 draft I’ve posted that I considered Henry as a steal and we effectively picked up four top 25 picks if not first round picks including Ramma who we picked up in the midseason draft. There is nothing more exciting than watching young talent.

Happy Birthday to Nick. Very best wishes for a happy and healthy life and a fulfilling and successful footy career with the mighty Hawks.

Pucovski is a ‘victim’ of the use of helmets ⛑️. There were no helmets when I played cricket and batsmen were coached to always watch the ball and step inside or duck under short balls. I cringe every time a batter takes their eyes off the ball and/or plays the ball in front of their head...

I don't think Roughy would warm to the likes of CEO Lethlean who is a good fit for the St Kilda "culture". Also my observations of SOS and Gubby at Coates League and the draft combine indicate they are thick as thieves. I think Roughy did well sticking it out for 4 years at the Aints.

I was not surprised but really disappointed when Emerson Jeka was delisted especially given we lack tall KPPs. I thought Jek showed enough in the finals restricting Garoni, Darcy and Day to a combined total of 1 goal 5 behinds while averaging 16 disposals and 8 marks after a season impacted by...

I understand the desire to promote Australian Rules in NSW and Qld so I accept the reasoning behind the free hit. Nominating two players maximum has merit however it is unlikely to happen. To provide a small degree of fairness and a greater incentive for non NSW and Qld clubs to develop NGA...

I enjoyed a terrific long conversation with Calsher Dear after the draft combine when the 2km trials for the State Combine were being run. I ask him if he was still 194cms and he told me he was just measured at 195cms. I've been holding on to the Calsher's response to my question about the...

Posters keep on claiming Daniel sees himself as a midfielder and yet when I had a good conversation with him at the draft combine, without hesitation he told me he sees himself as a defender and went on to talk about the role he played in the WAFL and how much he enjoyed it.

Maybe we see a 197cm, 95kg, 18 year old who was extremely impressive when he played against men in the WAFL, more as a versatile KPP player with a far greater upside than a 170cm, 68kg 18 year old. I understand the excitement over the prospect of an electric small forward however the reality is...

Good interviews with Cal Porter and James Parsons. I spoke to Cal at the draft combine and he said the only key BHH listed departures will be Damien Mascitti and Hugh Beazley. I think Ned Long will be a big loss.

Sadly Harry had to give playing away due to ongoing issues with both his knees. Post footy, this year he’s been enjoying some travelling 😁. Ive been told Stu Horner will play. Stu is a great clubman and we missed his leadership and strong one on one work. Also, post ACL injuries Ben Cavarra...

Very fair questions. It could’ve been an illness or fitness issue and I noted Nick was in a moon boot at the draft screening the week after the Coates League GF. Nick certainly shows his brilliance in space however in some games he struggled for opportunities in congestion. Early in the year he...

The problem was not the lack of ball inside the forward 50, Nick was simply out manoeuvred and played by his direct under age opponents. The primary reason for drafting Nick would be for him to play as a forward, not elsewhere. Impossible, WCE could be hanging out for the Centrelink Shinbeggars...

Very good, watching games live is needed to informatively assess players. FWIW, I've been a huge fan of Colby since watching him last year. Unlike you I have concerns with Nick because in Coates League games I’ve attended he has been restricted playing in the forward 50 and only had an impact...

I have a serious question for you projectwatson, how many live National Championship and/or Coates League games have you watched this year?

Emerson Jeka was excellent in his key defensive post. Without the aforementioned Mascitti and Beasley, ‘Jeks’ stepped up to lead a backline needing just that: leadership. Eight of his 15 disposals came after a mark and just about every kick that left his boot found a teammate...

The very reason I call Norf "The Centrelink Roos". They are forever putting their hands out in preference to putting their hands up. They are a financial drain on the AFL and have been a social embarrassment since the Carey/Stevens disgrace. The stand for nothing except wallowing in self pity...

I think Zane Littlejohn's write ups this season have been informative and provided a refreshing incite into what players are working on and need to work on. I was at the ground and don't think there was a need for Zane to refer to Ryan's goal. Also Ferg kicked the last goal of the second quarter...

I attended training this afternoon and was told gate 3 will be open. Sam Butler, Finn Maginness, DGB and Fergus Greenes all trained with the AFL team. The BHH squad trained on another oval. Emerson Jeka felt some calf tightness and was ruled out as a precaution. He is expected to be available...

A very good podcast with Damian Carroll who was the standout selection as the coach of the 2000 - 2019 Box Hill Hawks All Star Team.

Razzed him up for an overseas exhibition game is really over the top. After the king hit AC wanted to come off the ground however JK declined his request telling him he needed to be held accountable for his actions. Direct source JK!

That was the final resigning deal breaker. Buddy responded by contacting his agent and telling him he wanted out. The intrusion into Buddy’s holiday was too much.

The disgraceful unprovoked cowardly king hit on Ian Aitken in an exhibition game in London always made me wary of AC. The incident should have resulted in a suspension from the next season. Another incident which influenced my opinion on AC’s character was the way he spoke to the young BHH...
