    He was being sarcastic. Totally on Clarkson and another indictment on him. We wanted 2007-2017 Clarko. The 2024 model is a shadow of that. He's not punching a wall at some mistake coaching us. He has no fire.

    Bye bye Clarkson

    Lol on what assessment? We seem gassed halfway through the first. Dismal look on Clarko and the entire coaching group.

    Player Watch #44: Cameron Zurhaar - [AFL.com] NM offers 5yr deal - CZ interest from SYD/GC - CZ mgr says 'wants to see improvement' & 'team success'

    The reality of the matter is the main strength he is bringing to the team is that he is over 25. If he was 20, with his output currently, we'd all be saying de-list/trade as in reality it's no better than Stephenson's output of what a Curtis Taylor might bring if he was playing. It's only...

    Player Watch #38: Tristan Xerri - has signed a 4 year contract extension to the end of 2029

    Very positive about it - is imposing, has mongrel, both of which aren't our long suit so I am very happy about it.

    Autopsy Autopsy v hawks

    If he wasn't worried about the results he shouldn't have won the GC game and we'd have someone in the midfield above 5'10 and can compete.

    Preview Changes v Hawthorn - Marvel Stadium, Sun 21 April 4:00pm

    May be sooner when Dawson is back. I'd give Biggie every game if fit rather than play Corr.

    Am I correct in thinking we could have had Tyson Stengle in the year we took Edwards?

    Player Watch #11: Luke "Two Dogs" McDonald (Part II) - Roo til end '26 - 2023/24 co captain w/ Jy

    Ummm I'll call you on that, what about when he cannoned into the Brisbane player who marked the ball on our F50 line, causing a 50m penalty, which was then handballed in a chain for a goal? He is so inept. That f***ing wry "I tried my best but it was luck that beat me" smile - I just can't deal...

    Stephen Colignio was dropped at GWS for periods during the 2021 or 2022 season (apologies, was one of them). Has since bounced back. But Cameron had the balls to drop him, and he was THE one out captain.

    Autopsy Gather round my fat hairy ass

    Our 2 captains shone in assisting to hand all momentum to Brisbane in the first quarter. 1. McDonald cannons into his opponent after he takes the mark on our F50 line. 50m penalty results in scoring shot to Brisbane. 2. Simpkin clean misses a leading Larkey (I think it was) ball rebounds to...

    No, it's not.

    Bye bye Clarkson

    We don't have angry Clarko any more. We have soft, cuddly Clarko who may have very well had all energy sucked out of him by the racism investigation. Who knows. His jovial behaviour and even holding the ball shenanigans in the boundary vs Freo last year are just something he never did under...

    Bye bye Clarkson

    Reach a settlement and move on. We were better under Ratten - those were the only games we challenged quality teams.
