Knew that post would came back to bite me in the backside. At least Tiges got a flag using that pick 6 for Prestia so that makes life that little bit more bearable.

Obviously not the real Tivendale, if you even half thought that was true then you're very basic.

It was written in quotation marks and attributed to Greg Tivendale. You don't have to be a jerk about it, but then again you've already shown how venal you are so maybe I'm just being unrealistic. By the way, thanks to Richmond for trading your future away for short term gain. I'd call it a win win at this stage.

Hey guys, dumb question but how do you see Ah Chee taking his game to the next level with the new inclusions. Kid was taken high and rated great as a small forward.. Would love to hear your thoughts.

I really hope so. One of my favorite players. He's got such a good hand pass and already shown he can kick a bag of goals. I think he lost a lot of confidence after his shoulder injury and will do good with another pre-season. I think that forward is his best position. He's great around goal and marks well when he's got confidence. Him and Ainsworth will be a treat to watch.
 
The best things we have seen from Ah Chee so far are all snippets. Has not put it all together for long periods of a game. Some injuries have slowed him down this year.

But his best attributes so far are quick good decisions (hold it or give it), quick clean hands (some top shelf tap ons and handballs), good leap and mark.

I think his best stuff was in 2016. He had some really nice clean hands in his first year (one grab marks and pick ups) and that dropped off in 2017. We can put that down to injury for a lot of it but and he really needs to get those back. Otherwise, build his tank so he can make repeat efforts. Was cooked at the end of 2016 and looked cooked in the 2nd half of games quite a few times in 2017.

We won a flag, I couldn't give a shit about our future because I never thought I'd see a flag in my lifetime so for now I'm pretty content. Pick 6 will probably want out within a few years anyway so let's review this in a few years time.

And if the AFL continues to let you play Grand Finals at your home ground you might win another one with your team of good ordinary players

Please............that team would have played anyone anywhere and still won. Not one team came close to us in the finals and we were deserved winners.

All clubs know that the grand final is at the home of football, the MCG, and this will never ever change.

Very off topic, but in response to above, yeah you played three finals at your home ground. if Geelong (as much as GCFC and GFC are not really on good terms right now) had played 3 finals at Kardinya i doubt anyone would have come close to them either, same goes for Adelaide if they'd played in Adelaide 3 times.
Already got money on Richmond missing the 8 next year. :D

This flog although he makes some good points is consistently rude. I hope Suns or exile gives him a day off.

Richmond is the Steven Bradbury of the football world he won but nobody respected him because everybody else fell over. Enjoy your Bradbury moment

ainsworth =4

Brodie =9

Originally, it was #4, #6, #8 and #10, but the order got muddled with bids on GWS players and the Sydney forced us to take Bowes at #10. It could have gotten ugly if another team had have bid on Bowes earlier and cost us our 4th top 10 pick. Number #2 at this year's Draft could easily be 3rd or 4th pick if some of the teams with multiple 1st and 2nd round picks move up to bid on a player. Gives me a headache trying to predict and by the end you just hope to get a decent player.
 
Coaches started back today for a week of planning, they have already met prior re this, new players are back next Monday and the older guys a week or so later

One of the most destructive guys in the coaching staff has been let go and no-one knew him, remember the guy always sitting next to Rocket in the box, Christian Stagliani, no formal coaching experience but was brought in by Rocket to cover his back, in my opinion a very divisive and treacherous person who contributed to rumour, immuendo and backstabbing in the ranks.....just my opinion but he has been walked too so I think Evans has absolutely nailed the feedback from the review and cut out the poison and dead wood so far
 
Anyone find it weird that we've signed Harrison Wigg and there's nothing on the Suns site about him at all? Is there even a photo of him?
 
Anyone received their membership packages yet? Would like to know the details before ezy pay starts coming out in a couple of week
