    Unofficial Preview Anzac Day vs Collingwood Sat 25th

    We are in this up to our eyeballs, Collingwood can't score, are grinding away at the moment. We have dialled up our pressure and have some decent options forward of centre. I expect a high pressure high turnover game where we can get on the end of some quick fire turnover goals. Rids the big...

    Hot Topic The Rebuild

    The other unintended potential failing of Richmond's scorched earth build, they have to play the kids from the start, no choice, now they are all breaking down and getting lti. Losing development time

    Hot Topic The Rebuild

    This might be slightly divergent to the convo but the idea that any "build" has one cycle that ends in a premiership window or 12 on the clock also dosent really wash for me. I think any decent list build usually comes 2 or 3 times for a crack at the flag If I look at Essendon, let's call 93 a...

    Hot Topic The Rebuild

    Is scale it back in simpler terms 1. Assess your list and decide when it's time to tip out and start again 2. Announce to fans and media that a rebuild has begun thus lowering expectations from fans and pressure from media 3. Stockpile high draft picks via culling anything of value (be...

    That was probably due to their negotiating style of waiting til the last moment to try and force a pressure fold. If the rumours were true McKenzie might have been swayed if we had time in his ear Anyway it's all moot, it is what it is we are stuck with an unhappy player, so be it

    I don't think North are pulling out of anything, they scraped past us- they were/are just less shit than us which is low bar

    Geelong always made sense to me, close to his region, flag window, always happy to pay up for the right player , (old) they offered 3 firsts for Charlie.

    More to the point, instead of pointing out scorched earth rebuilds that haven't worked, try to name one (in the current AFL era) that has. Your regular clubs are the top of the ladder are there not from scorched earth, but due to some form of continuous top ups via inequity. Brisbane GC can...

    We can all have our opinions on how it all played out. Personally if I was the club last year I say, you want to go Zach? That's OK, but find yourself another club that isn't Hawthorn because we don't like how you, them and your manager have handled any of this. You have a month to find another...
