    Prediction Round Four Changes vs. Adelaide

    Worner made one or two bad errors but played a pretty decent game I thought. The stats show he operated at 100% btw. Tbh I think he's a better overall package than Worner. Walker has better speed. Think Worner is better is most other things. People have short memories too. Do they remember...

    Prediction Round Four Changes vs. Adelaide

    So easy to say that but who's coming out? FWIW I think if one of Chapman, McVee or Worner had a three week injury, they might also find it hard to get back in. It's a good problem to have.

    Prediction Round Four Changes vs. Adelaide

    Genuinely think we only played well enough to be confident we'd beat the worst handful of teams in the competition. We put up that first half against Adelaide and we're 20-30 points down. I'm not saying we definitely would've lost from there but I don't think a comeback works against a decent...

    List Mgmt. 2026 List Management

    I'm reasonably convinced there's something similar to the old Cost of Living Allowance in Queensland tbh. The AFL just needs to keep it quiet unlike they did for actual COLA. No one knew about that either until the AFL told everyone about it. They probably changed a few minor clauses and called...

    List Mgmt. 2026 List Management

    There's always a Victorian team there that'll meet whatever requirements a player is looking at. That's just our reality and it's for players playing in Victoria or from other Eastern state clubs. Victorian clubs even seem to be competitive in these discussions when a WA/SA native is looking to...

    Think we can win a flag with Davies or Draper at full back tbh. Of course it helps to have better but maybe the money freedom up when Pearce leaves is better spent elsewhere.

    Maybe we've got one or two extra in terms of numbers this year but feel like we've had the depth in the past and haven't used it. Wouldn't be surprised if they just try to push through with best available. End of the day resting our top 5-6 players (except maybe Young due to injury history)...

    You don't pay Patrick Voss to sit in the reserves. Almost think you can't win a premiership if you do tbh. So you'd be offloading him and his contract for **** all if Georgiades came. Tbh think Port won't have anyone else bar Rozee and JHF to pay decent money to once Butters and Bergman jump...

    Injuries were a big part of why Georgiades was pretty inconsistent tbh.

    Mega Thread 2026 Media & Miscellaneous Thread

    I've learned to not care how much the Victorians rate us tbh. You'd swear that no player has ever played for our bar Pavlich and Fyfe at times. Also as good as Serong is how he is rated by the media isn't reflective of his importance to the team. There's 2-3 players that'd be just as important...

    He's 31 by the end of next year. Don't think it's a huge concern he's out of contract in 18 months given his age. We'll access in the next twelve months and probably give him two years, possibly with a trigger for a third.

    Prediction Round Four Changes vs. Adelaide

    Didn't think Walker's performance in round one screamed 'needs to come back into the side fresh off an injury'. He was okay - that's about it. Think there's a few on here trying to pick one of Worner, Chapman or McVee just because one of them probably needs to go to fit Walker in. Tbh I didn't...

    Yea lost the week after in 2024 and 2025. Actually won in Gather Round after in 2023 having played in Adelaide the week before. Was a narrow win against a bottom four side though. Reality is either us or West Coast needed to travel two weeks in a row. Adelaide is the shortest trip for us so...

    Injury 2026 Injury Thread

    Whilst there's clearly some examples of clubs presenting wrong or misleading information I do think it's more often the case of clubs not really knowing timeframes for recovery until long after Tuesday after a game. Think there's a few on here still scarred by the Jason Webber era where our...
