    Losing I.Heeney and E.Gulden from the forward half will have that impact on attacking entries. Fatigue due to aforementioned 5 day break plus travel will also affect accuracy of disposal. Commentary on loop about how Hawthorn shut down Sydney's running handball game, without ever mentioning...

    List Mgmt. 2026 Trade/Contract Discussion

    Get the feeling that the Bulldogs are making such a play for Z.Butters in part because they believe R.Sanders will be leaving as a free agent for Tasmania's inaugural team. If he only agrees to a one year extension this year it would all but confirm that outcome.

    Jeebus. -24 contested possessions -32 uncontested possessions -6 clearances -717 metres gained -13 inside 50s -8 scoring shots -38 points In that first quarter. When the team should still be full of run before the legs fade. Once again match over before it even had the chance of being a...

    I don't like the stand rule, and I hate the 50m punishment even more. If it's really about freeing the player in possession to move towards attack, then rather than a 50m penalty, all that is necessary is the following: Umpire to rule "move aside" (or whatever is agreed upon) to the player...

    Completely agree. It's like the rule changes and a few games of "Daicos-interpretation" have make coaches forget that tagging is even a thing. If they are trying to win games, clearly the first move done against Collingwood is tag N.Daicos. I am convinced however that it will turn, and that...

    Scottsdale Police Department officers alleged the two players were found standing on a scissor lift nearly 2.5 metres off the ground at 10:47pm on November 8, with another group of males on the ground "cheering them on filming them, sending cheers of encouragement". "The males then told me they...

    Injury 2026 Season Injury Thread

    High running volumes in bodies that are often still growing vertically, whilst under strain of gaining significant amounts of mass. Then being asked to perform explosively on repeat over sustained periods, whilst dealing with higher impact collisions than ever before. Combined with preseasons...

    Indeed. Should have added in terms of this season - repeating on the mistakes of those that came before. If anything, the problem is now looking even worse than it has in previous years. Going to be entertaining at least.

    That's now two weeks in succession that Carlton have hit the wall after half time. Clearly not fit enough to run out the gameplan they are trying to implement. A bye week isn't going to be enough to remedy that - feeling it will be a very long season for Carlton (and a very short one for...

    Odd take. He had a mare last night against Geelong, but the talent is undeniable. Remains only 20 and is effectively playing out of position because Gold Coast want to get as many games into him before J.Witts retires. It's arguable had J.Koschitzke been at a club other than St Kilda and...

    Indeed, there is a lot of rain on the way in these parts. Geelong don't do well in such conditions - their biggest loss since the Max Gawn Preliminary Final in Perth was in 2024 when they played Gold Coast in Darwin. Funnily enough, they haven't been scheduled to play up there since that.

    Close, 11.4 Round 3, 2012 - WCE 23.12.150 vs GWS 10.9.69 at Blacktown Oval 5 goals from L.Shuey in that match also. GWS had T.Greene, S.Coniglio, A.Treloar and J.Cameron in that first-year squad who are still playing today. J.Darling the only Eagle featured that remains in the competition...

    Agree on H.Dean, played very well in his first game - was arguably the highlight of the match from a Carlton perspective. Disagree on the E.Gulden comparison for J.Smith. E.Gulden has massive impact per possession due to his elite disposal by foot and ability to hit the scoreboard in addition...

    I think Carlton's midfielders simply hit the wall whilst Sydney's ran through it. The shear numbers they [the Swans] were getting to each contest and then running ahead meant they always had free players as an option out the front each time. Pace was a clear issue as well. Sydney knew that...

    That gimp team is our next opponent. Round 7, 2015 - 12.0 in the 3rd quarter against Fold Coast. C.Masten and M.Priddis had 82 disposals between the two them. E.Yeo 29 disposals and 4 goals to get the remaining Brownlow vote. Considering it was 11 years ago, it is somewhat surprising that...
