WE SHOULD FIRE EVERYONE WHO WAS INVOLVED IN THE DECISION TO OVERLOOK RYAN MAR.... Oh wait, I've just been handed a note. Nevermind.

They forgot he's a winger. I've had the quote-reply above in drafts since yesterday. Stephenson's best games have been on the wing. People think he's a high half forward because he kicks goals but honestly think he's better running up and down the field all day. It suits his, um, uncontested...

I think he's aiming for Brisbane but knowing Bailey, he'll miss the target and wind up on the Gold Coast instead....

It wasn't about county form, it was Renshaw's Australia A performance, against test attacks, that was better.

Mate. He's the 38th best player on the worst team in the comp, only picked up because of an injury to our best defender, and then gets thrown to play in an forward line with delivery that matches my kid's under 9s team. Fine, he's not great, but to be here five minutes after the game targeting...

All the best to Nate7 Calvin and Hobbes for me.

I wonder if the umpire just didn't see the bounce - there did seem to be a few players between him and Rankine.

We tried.

Because he was knackered. Gold Coast made six change, too.

Heads-up for the "should have drafted a KPD" crew. 200cm first round draft pick Will Dawson is debuting this week.

Yeah, I reckon that unnecessary. We can enjoy our kids without shitting on anyone else.

Good effort by Bill Berry to sneak in a dozen games before heading back to record Life's Rich Pageant.

Given the current environment in the AFL, I doubt we'll see Wayne Carey in an official capacity for a while. Wonder what Shaun Atley is up to these days....

Rumours of a debut this week?

He's been here since 2019. He was a senior part of the team that made list management decisions in 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023. To still be saying the list woes are somebody else's fault is a massive cop-out.

Swapping Zurhaar for Parker seems a bad deal. Parker was rumoured to be on $700,000 so getting that off their books would be doing them a favour. And if Zurhaar leaves (which I don't want him to, FWIW), it removes the prospect of any FA compensation. If Lobb comes cheap (trade-wise), I could...

It's just a re-hash of his comments when the assistance package was announced last year.

FWIW, Gold Coast have made four changes, all of them listed as "managed". Wouldn't mind betting we have at least as many.

Sandeep Lamichchane has been acquitted on appeal and is apparently a decent chance of being included in Nepal's squad. https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/t20-world-cup-nepal-news-sandeep-lamichchane-acquitted-of-rape-1433903

Ah, that's the WA team from 2022.

Not that he's been mentioned much lately, but Jasper Scaife did not make the WAFL side to play against the SANFL.

I hope we at least ask the question but the reality is that a guy who waited until his 157th game to play a final is highly unlikely to move to the bottom team just 12 months later.

Yeah, I've had a shocker here. Have edited the post to acknowledge I was incorrect. Fwiw, my assertion was based on a mis-remembering of comments by Ramanauskas after we pulled the pin on the BBB deal. I've since searched and can't find anything remotely like that. Not sure where it came from...
