That being said if you go to pretty much any thread that deals with the assassination of Fitzroy you will find folks still bitter about the way it was handled, the way Carlton acted etc ... hell there are still people who can't stand Campbell's over Glencoe back in 1692 and for that matter over the way Jacob tried to steal Esau's birthright way back in Genesis!
We ourselves remember Eddie for retention allowance fame etc...

If TDK doesn't end up going to Sh*t Kilda, do they keep Marshall? I'd imagine so, because I doubt they'd go into a season with Heath as the #1. With Dodson as the ruck in waiting, maybe it is worth making Heath an offer, because here at least Fort and Smith are less tough competition than trying to displace Marshall or TDK. Unless Sh*t Kilda give him assurances they'll play two rucks each game.
Heath is almost 23, he's at the prime age where players break out (as is Smith). If we have both next season, it's like having two horses in the race for the next top ruck. I'd expect one of them to make the #1 spot firmly theirs.

Ah Chee who knows, no one seems to be talking about his contract status and he rarely comes up as a trade option. Starc is just going throughthe normal free agency process after focusing on his health and fitness. If he didn't get that concussion against Sydney, I imagine we'd already know if he was staying or leaving
Ah Chee would be hitting the market for sure, end of last year definitely up'd that value
He's happily settled here.
Only reason he'd go is if we significantly undercut his market value for a longer term.
But he'd much prefer to stay.
I've got 3 big beefs.
What they did to Fitzroy was unforgivable particularly in the light of what they've done since.
Bitter Eddie got in the ear of the AFL bigwigs and that was the end of any recovery from our golden years.
And the Prelim final in Melbourne fiasco cost us a 4peat.
No way I ever get over any of those.
Can't see Linc getting a game this season, if he does it means we have had too many players injured.McCarthy listed as 4-6 weeks

If we loose any forward Linc come in if he comes back wellCan't see Linc getting a game this season, if he does it means we have had too many players injured.
We miss his defensive in the forward line at times now.
It allow Charlie to me more attacking.
i think he could replace any of our small forwards in an injury
heaps of big game experience
crafty player
would likely get the nod over mclachlan
would also be a sub chance
needs to look good in 2s though
can't afford any setbacks from here though
and doedee is not a good recent example of double knee form
Linc playing this year is a bit of a pipedream imo but full credit to him for the effort he's put in to get to this stage and give the boys some inspiration.Can't see Linc getting a game this season, if he does it means we have had too many players injured.
I hope we don't go the Docherty back for a final route.
You'd think that'd be a last resort.

I think Starce and Dev will be the only ones who choose to go, unless the club wants to delist a Tunstill or Lester retires.
Pretty sure I read somewhere that Ah Chee purchased a home here, so unless he's going back to the Suns, I think he's a pretty good chance to stay.

Number 1 next year if we don’t recruit anyone

Yeah, Smith will probably go to Fort's role in 2027, if he remains at the Lions, behind Draper, O'Brien, or whoever our #1 Ruck is next year when Oscar retires later this year

Starc needs to be careful. He's one bad headknock away from potentially being retired. Did anyone watch the Carlton game where his head bounced off the turf after a tackle? He went down for a moment holding his head, before he got up again. I don't want to say it, because I hope he has a long career and he's one of our best players, but he seems like a ticking time bomb to me. Maybe saying that, the club are being careful as well and offering him less years than he would like.
Is it? I thought you guys were favourites. Has something changed there?
