    AFL Player 7: Indefatigable Zach Merrett

    I think you've nailed why he hasn't asked for a trade. He'd have to replace his lambo with a pair of Skechers.

    Game Day Dons v Cats - TUES 25th 7.10pm @ the Cattery

    I think what I've liked the most is the around the ground pressure. Even just then, Dempsey had time but the implied pressure forced him into that odd kick. The defensive set up has been decent as well. When they try to build from half back it's been slower than what we've been used to seeing...

    Game Day Dons v Cats - TUES 25th 7.10pm @ the Cattery

    Looking alright. Good ball movement, some minor mistakes, but you can see what we're trying to do offensively and defensively. Nice. Can't ask for much more considering where we're coming from.

    Certified Legendary Thread Delusional Pearlers IV

    Yeah, it's stupid and I hate it, but from a narrow marketing perspective it makes a little bit of sense. They'd have audience persona data at AFL HQ that says something about NRL fans being parochial suburban fans who hate that their teams have abandoned them and are playing overseas. So the AFL...

    Preview Round 1: Essendon vs Hawthorne, MCG, Saturday 16/03/24 @ 1:45 PM

    We also had 15 less rotations. Would be a major reason as to why they ran over the top from midway through the last.

    Team Mgmt. Makeup of our team II - Strengths & deficiencies, player development

    Maybe. Maybe not. Would really depend on the natural improvement that the younger players have and also the leadership qualities of McKay, Goldstein and Gresham. Three mature players in three different sectors of the ground.

    Team Mgmt. Makeup of our team II - Strengths & deficiencies, player development

    Is your argument here that Heppell will be best 22 this year because he played games last year? My argument is that he played as many games as he did last year because the team lacks on-field leadership. A flaw that comes from being such a young side. Which we were, and will continue to be this...

    Team Mgmt. Makeup of our team II - Strengths & deficiencies, player development

    Of that cohort we had Hobbs (18 games), Perkins (23) and Menzie (21) play most of the season and then had ADJ (10) play a decent amount of games. Tsatas, Reid, Cox, and J Davey were injured for a large portion of the season but Tsatas and Cox did come in when they were available. Baldwin is...

    Traded #42: Massimoe D'Ambrosioe - Thank you for your service

    I saw him at the supermarket the other night. Had to do a double take because he was fully kitted out in team gear. Essendon hat, Essendon polo, Essendon jacket, Essendon pants. Even his shoes were red and black. Gave me a smile and a nod and was on his way.
