    List Mgmt. Contract, Trade and Draft Discussions - 2024 Edition

    This deal makes too much sense. Barrass may only have a couple of years left at current output but they will be gun years. Wasted on us but worth something to the Hawks. Go well TB.

    Coach Coach for 2025

    So Schofield couldn't prove anything by winning games but gets written off after a terrible loss. Hope I never work for most of you blokes. I also hope you give the new coach more than a month to prove his mettle in the the hot seat but I guess we'll see. FTR I'm as dirty as anyone after...

    We are the West Coast Rayguns

    Game Day Round 23, 2024: West Coast vs Carlton

    Petch has Carlton player dead to rights then just gently reaches around his waist to let him know to get rid of the ball

    Game Day Round 23, 2024: West Coast vs Carlton

    Why do we always tackle like we're trying to pull the oppo's pants down instead of... I dunno, restricting their arms

    Game Day Round 23, 2024: West Coast vs Carlton

    **** this game. Reid completely ripped out of the contest but no free and the dumbass mouthbreathers say he's playing for a free. The only thing I'm still watching this for is the off chance that Gaff goes out Alistair Lynch style.

    Game Day Round 23, 2024: West Coast vs Carlton

    Would be nice to do literally anything in a 2nd quarter this year. Though we have Geelong next week so I think we can close the door on that.

    Coach Coach for 2025

    The thing I keep thinking about when somebody says giving an interim coach the full time gig is a bad idea is that most of the people they're probably thinking of, especially in recent memory, were appointed to complete basket case clubs. Clubs with a history of either internal disarray or...

    Coach Coach for 2025

    One thing I like about Schoey is he doesn't dance around the point. He's been asked about the job several times and always made it clear that he is jonesing for it. Of course he is lucky enough to be in a position where he can say that but it makes a nice change from everyone else who is being coy.

    Autopsy Round 22, 2024: Positives and Negatives vs North Melbourne

    Having a lot of trouble processing this one. First and foremost, **** yes. So good to win. To win in Tas. To win 2 weeks in a row. To put another tick next to Schofield's name. Where I do feel for North is that they lost despite playing pretty consistently for 4 quarters. We switched off for a...

    Toast Andrew Gaff (Pick 4, 2010 National Draft) - Thanks for the 1000 Cuts, Enjoy Retirement

    Onya Gaffy. An amazing servant of the club. I realise I'm probably in the minority here but I am not a fan of players at the end of their career getting a game on anything other than merit. The club is going to do what they will though, so I hope he rolls back the clock and plays a couple of...

    Coach Coach for 2025

    I can understand saying no to a job but holding out for a better deal is brave. Some guys (most) who are anointed for senior coaching gigs never actually get one. Scott Burns and Suma are two examples I can think of off the top of my head.

    Playing devil's advocate, that could mean that there are more voices than just theirs that go into selection.

    Prediction Round 22, 2024: Changes vs North Melbourne

    They only replayed it once didn't they? And none of the commentators said anything about it being possibly looked at. Might be misremembering but it struck me as very odd at the time.

    News Media Thread, 2024: Insightful, Inciteful and Incomptent

    Don't care about W Schofield's hot takes, he's obviously just realising it works in his favour a la Cornes. The more people hate you the more they tune in for some reason. The interesting point I think both guys on the pod missed, particularly Readings, is why that win felt so good. Yes we have...

    Also pretty happy Cox said no to us. His mob can barely get within a hundred of Port. Dodged a bullet there.

    Autopsy Round 21, 2024: Positives and Negatives vs Gold Coast

    You're not wrong, but I think there's some nuance there you gloss over. None of us want players doing their bit to get recalled and then getting dropped after a single game back. If we rode the ups and downs of individual performances half the team would change from week to week. I know you know...

    Coach Coach for 2025

    I've been pretty bullish on Schofield since he took the interim job. Not that we shouldn't cast the net far and wide, but I think a lot of people wrote him off early because for whatever reason people associate caretaker coaches with not being good candidates for a longer term gig. If there are...

    Autopsy Round 21, 2024: Positives and Negatives vs Gold Coast

    I thought this was another great takeaway from last night that got lost in the excitement of the win. Senior player gets dropped, made to earn his spot back from the WAFL, does so and is all the better for it in the seniors. If they stop tiptoeing around senior players' egos everyone's better...

    Autopsy Round 21, 2024: Positives and Negatives vs Gold Coast

    We have learnt a lot about the list over the last few weeks. Hedwards looks like he may be a decent defender after all, JWilliams gets better every week, guys like Dewar, Trew, Johnston, and Hall can contribute in a win and should be considered first in line for available spots over guys like...

    Coach Coach for 2025

    In the absence of any other information, he'd be as good a chance as any other individual. What is the chance that some other individual we interview from Melbourne or Sydney is the best candidate? Unlikely compared to the rest of the pool. Schofield should be assessed on the same standard as...

    Autopsy Round 20, 2024: Positives and Negatives vs Fremantle

    Interesting that Schofield gave Harley 3 and JL gave him 0.

    Prediction Round 21, 2024 - Changes vs Gold Coast

    I mean there's also some incredible mental gymnastics in saying we would like to have a chance of winning the game, so let's play a guy who hasn't been getting selected on merit.

    Autopsy Round 19, 2024: Positives and Negatives vs St Kilda

    We can't just clean out the whole club, what would happen to our performance onfield? We might lose for 3.5 years straight.

    Autopsy Round 19, 2024: Positives and Negatives vs St Kilda

    Ledwards is a rich man's Hamish Brayshaw. Jones needs to have a line marked through him. I like his pace and occasional agility but he's never going to be more than a tease. Rotham is hard to tolerate but of the 3 he's the one I can actually see being a part of a decent team. Not ours though.

    Not even gonna lie, quite happy we got that out of the way so I can have a relaxing Sunday reading.

    Why the **** are we wasting entries trying to get a mark 45 out on the most acute angle we can find?

    Game Day Round 19, 2024: West Coast vs St Kilda

    Low percentage pass for what would have been a low percentage shot at goal.
