I got zero leaving vibes from him so I'm not sure what the concern is

Why on earth are these guys finding life long or even long term partners when they are 17

Why not?

 

[freodog]

Why not?

You hardly know yourself at 17 and are just figuring out life. Why would you commit to anyone long term at that age?

They’re not married though right? If they find that they drift apart because they’re no longer compatible then so be it.

Being in a committed long term relationship at 21 doesn’t mean they are forced to stay in it.

And it is possible to meet your spouse at that age. One of my best mates married his high school girlfriend, still going strong 30+ years later

Surely, if any rating system has validity in the AFL, it's the club award voting.

It's pretty hard to argue against votes cast each week according to how players have fulfilled the tasks assigned to them, by the people who watch it the closest and have the most detail.

Couldn’t agree more.
At the end of the day we are all just nuffies here on Bigfooty compared to the people scoring the Doig medal.
If the coaches think that Griffin Logue was the third best player in the club this season after 18 rounds, who are we to argue?
It would be different if it was some tosser journo from Melbourne ranking these players but it’s the guys that work with them closely every day.

Because girls/women cling onto you as they know you are going to be successful.

Mundy after feeling homesick met a West Australian girl and he eventually stayed.

It sucks how we are going to lose Serong because of his gf

Probably already fielding recruitment calls this morning after that speech.

 

[One_Wing]

So I see we are all in a happy mood this morning.

Pretty much

 

[s_wd6]

Still want to know if everyone is losing their minds simply bc he said his gf made sacrifices or if there was something else of substance

He still hasn't signed and his gf sounds homesick

 

[SandiHill]

Jumping at shadows after a passionate speech. Serong is no different to Brayshaw. Both will have long purple careers (remember you heard it here first )

 

[nurries]

There is a reason we are freeing up $$ this year

 

[SandiHill]

He still hasn't signed and his gf sounds homesick

The bloke is already signed for 2023 is he not? No need to rush an extension

We said the same thing about Cerra at the end of 2020.

Like I said before, Brayshaw signed his big contract in December when he was at the same point in his career. Wait till after trade period before him not being signed starts to become worrying.

 

[SandiHill]

We said the same thing about Cerra at the end of 2020.

But when did Cerra ever show the same level of passion for the club? He looked disappointed since day 1

 

[Cobbler]

LOL. Jumping at shadows.

After the trade period the club will have more knowledge of where the $ are at.
Expect a decent wheelbarrow of cash to be rolled up to Serong’s house.

This guy ain’t going anywhere.

Thats not that far away

 

[s_wd6]

Thats not that far away

So I'm sure we can all patiently wait a month

Hopefully you are right. I’d be keen to see it done before the end of 2022. If it drifts into next year, that’s a big red flag.
Any extension will be between 2 and 4 years. 4 yeas brings him to free agency. That’s the ideal scenario, and what Young and Brayshaw signed.
Even if we locked him in for 2 more beyond next year that’s still end of 2025 and wouldn’t be a bad result
