Does anyone know the season start dates for 2024 yet? If it's a week earlier than 2023 then could it start
March 8th or 9th?
And
Can anyone confirm if afl will go ahead with us v Brissie ... maybe on the thursday or friday nite up there?

Ta folks.

Still trying to work out ourselves. The proposed early round coincides with NRL opening in ‘Vegas. As far as I can ascertain, that is a week earlier, as in 1st. Where there is smoke, there is fire, so be surprised if we can’t lock it in.

Cheers.

Thought it would be a good article. It wasn't.

Focussed solely on the volume of movement, not at all on the quality or the outcome post-trade.

Do I take this as a sign that we're back to being 'hated' (joking)

SEN did a premature redraft of 2022.

With one year of information under our belts, we have decided to have another go at the 2022 National Draft.

Ollie came in at no 8.

Not bad for a kid many saw as being a conservative pick...

Yep, but he was better than some ahead of him on that list imo …. but GuesSEN had the disclaimer that it’s more the longer term than just first year

I'm not taking Ginbey ahead of Hollands right now. Looks a slowish inside mid. A bit too slow off the mark to be considered that high. Haven't seen enough of Wardlaw or Humphrey yet. Sheezel miles in front of Ashcroft. Cadman lucky to be mentioned on the list at all.

Stated previously that Hollands exceeded my expectations in his first year, but always knew he had a high floor, like all the draftees we took last year

Way too early for a redraft, 4-5 years is a much better timeframe

I think his high floor is already showing, workrate, 2nd efforts, pressure are excellent but I'm already concerned by how many of his kicks are smothered, he has a big slow, well telegraphed, wind up and if he can't change that he'll only be of value outside the contest.

Back the kid to do everything in his power to improve though, as a first year he would have put a lot of the list to shame with all that stuff mentioned previously.

Yeah, it's something he definitely needs to work on. This was from one of my preseason training rambles....

"Hollands looks very confident the way he moves and seems to find space where there is none - however, on occasions he's horribly slow in his decision making when he has the ball in hand and gets caught. I noticed the same in the U18 champs, so an area of his game he'll have to improve."

 

[JustaBattler]

Yes he does get smothered a tad too often from around 50 meters when he is trying to find an target - then again I think he can improve on that fairly easily - a big tick was his part in the W>H>D>A goal to win the match against Melbourne - that was a genuine mark , spin and kick to Docherty in very quick time...

FWIW, was at a friend's place yesterday.

She told me she's friends with G. Wardlaw's mum.

The mum told her George grew up playing against N. Daicos and George always gave Nick a bath....

Nick doesn't like George!

Is it Elijah's court day today? Hopefully this is all done and dusted soon and we can get him down South and into a Blues jumper.

There has been some really good and encouraging news on the health front for The Buzz (Peter Bosustow) who has been doing it really tough over the last 18 months or so.

The club tour is absolutely superb. Can't recommend it highly enough.

Did we get any consensus on a 'Carlton' song to play before and after games.

I assume 'Blue (Da Ba Dee)' was on the list ???
