    Preview QF2: Geelong vs Brisbane, Friday 5th Sept 7:40pm at MCG

    What is Jhye Clarke’s “0ne wood” exactly. He does everything “okay”, but is too small, not overly quick, lacks penetrating in his kicking. I think the club was seduced at the draft by his “Selwoodness” but it turns out he’s “Temu Joel”!!! Please prove me wrong, Jhye! I really do wish you all the...

    Review Cats spay Demons by 39 points.

    198 or 199cm, depending on who you ask. Either way…bloody huge! And an athletic, aerobic beats. Compared by both PD and CS to Blicavs athletically. But taller. I would compare his footy IQ to Matthew Egan. Seems intelligent and humble in interviews. Expect 200+ games in the hoops. Sent from...

    More likely that Zuthrie fills the Stewart role. He’s pretty much a clone. Agreed that Bowes goes back. Smith in is an upgrade to Mullin. I believe, like many others here, that Atkins, Mullin and O’Connor gives us to many non-influencers in the team. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    So with our first game now being next Saturday v Freo at GMHBA, who comes into the frame for selection who wasn’t for the Brisbane game? Smith? Mannagh? Bruhn? Stanley? C. Guthrie? O. Henry?

    Game Day Geelong -v- Essendon 25 February 2025 at KP, 7:20pm - AAMI Community Series.

    I think I saw CS say somewhere today that Danger may play a GAS FF role out of the goal square. In fact a similar location/position to Hawkins. Don’t mind it. Obviously he’d be released into the guts on occasion. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Game Day Geelong -v- Essendon 25 February 2025 at KP, 7:20pm - AAMI Community Series.

    Look where they got their goals from. 15-30 metres out dead in front or near to. They weren’t kicking a lot from the boundary or outside 50. Says more about us showing a lack of cohesion from mf pushing back, than stellar kicking from Bombers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Rumour GFC 2025 Player Trading, Drafting FA, Rumours and Wish lists Pt 1

    Absolutely true that most draftees don’t have long term sustainable AFL careers at an elite level, but many of those can play 2nd tier semi-pro alongside their day-jobs and do well, without the mind-blowing physical demands of AFL. Anyone who’s even played a handful of games at the elite level...

    Sure! Throw Knevitt, Miers, O’Connor, Blicavs, et al in there for the odd CBA as well. A LOT of flexibility. Smiths line breaking capabilities will definitely add another dimension. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I really don’t see any problems with Smith. 23yo Elite athlete Hungry to prove himself Has the swag required to be a star His best (eg 2021 Finals) is elite Best marketing in the AFL Any discipline issues will be guided by our leadership group and club values Stick him straight in the guts...

    I still maintain that the only thing standing between us and CO, is the egos of the list managers and decision makers at MFC. THEY gave him the massive deal. THEY shopped him twice, then pulled the pin. Until and unless wiser heads prevail and they accept that they will only get our FR1 and...

    Rumour GFC 2025 Player Trading, Drafting FA, Rumours and Wish lists Pt 1

    If we were to bag Smith and Oliver, our mf becomes immediately elite, and gives us the option to play Danger forward more in his last year or two, as the younger guys develop around him. But…Oliver, for example, has built his reputation roving to Gawn. Our ruck stocks are precarious, to say the...

    It seems to me that Melbourne have shot themselves in the foot but don’t wanna go to the hospital cos it’s embarrassing. They shopped Oliver twice then backed up. Not a good look. Now Oliver feels rejected. Probably scarred his relationship with the Dees playing group permanently. The most...

    Rumour GFC 2024 Player Trading, Drafting FA, Rumours and Wish lists Pt 2

    Hardie a bit unlucky, but he’s a long way back as a preferred mid. Clohesy seems more favoured and likely got an AFL spot, especially considering he was emergency in the PF. Rohan and Parfitt no surprise really. Crap way for Rohan to go out, but I’d be pretty certain the club will look after...

    Autopsy Lions prevail by 10

    Really? The entire team? Even though we were leading with 3 minutes to go and led for 59% of game time? And our best and most influential and structurally important midfield was out for the second half, coinciding with PRECISELY when Brisbane got hold of us? I absolutely understand that without...

    MRP / Trib. Dane Rampe Suspension?

    Left the ground. Extended forearm. High contact. It will hinge on Careless or Intentional. Low impact, High Contact for sure. If it’s intentional he gets 1 match. He also has form over last years hit against a Bulldogs player. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Agreed. That was an extraordinarily poor effort by Port. And I thought Sydney’s celebrations were completely OTT. It’s ok to celebrate but they literally looked liked they’d won the flag. If we’re successful tonight, there is no way you’ll see our players running around like headless chooks, a...

    I don’t think so. He got injured at the wrong time, and as much as I’m a huge fan of SDK and his long term potential as an elite CHB/Ruck, his form post 2022 has not ensured an automatic Best 22 spot. He may well play in the GF , if we get through, depending on match-ups and injuries. Or if...

For me: In: Stewart, SDK (Sub) Out: Mullin, 2E (Unlucky) We’re in very, very good selection shape when you can leave out Hawkins, C Guthrie, Clark, Knevitt, Hardie and Parfitt. Only really Conway, Rohan...
