Is it just me or does he look to have a bit of the Bont about him? Looks awesome. Smooth mover, strong mark, burst speed and a nice left boot. Just barges his way through everyone.

I must have misread your post then, apologies if so. I took it as though he was having less impact and that he was not as prominent as he was earlier in the season. This was the part I disagreed with.

Disagree. He may be less prominent in terms of disposals however, he is still still having the same amount of impact on games. It’s just a different type of impact. It coincides with Newc getting more of the ball as well as Days return. He’s just getting down and dirty getting the ball out to...

Newc was stiff for sure. I actually thought it would have been fitting for both ruckmen to win the award. Fantastic battle (😉) the entire game. Not to discredit Amon or Newc who were both superb.

Man, your takes are absolutely terrible. Give it a rest.

Delete if not appropriate but me and my old man refer to Stanley as LIFT. Had a dart with him at half time a while ago. Big hawk at heart and very passionate. For those unsure who we are all referring to, he was stoked when I asked if I could nab a pic of him. LIIIIFT!

You’re using goals as the only metric which isn’t fair. Yes he’s averaging around 2 goals a game at VFL level. I reckon at the start of the season the majority of us would be happy with him kicking a goal per game and showing ‘glimpses’. Would be more if he kicked 4.2 instead of 2.4 on the...

Yep. I see both sides of the argument and don’t know which way to lean :think: If we bring him in it’s due to a lack of tall forward options and he has shown good form at BH. Way above anyone’s original expectations when we drafted him. On the other hand, is it too soon? Are we throwing him to...

An athletic 7.6ft key defender doesn’t stand out?

Wasn’t he with the mids last year (genuine question)? If so, why the * change it? Our midfield unit last year was a strength and it’s now a weakness. Midfield over the last 3 years: 2022 - Terrible 2023 - Great 2024 - Terrible I know Day has been out but * me it’s strange how bad we’ve been...

The Bont it is!

I wished and dreamed of the opportunity to take him in the draft at the time. Absolute freak of a player.

Struggling to decide whether to take Zerretts VC or just go all in on Bont/Butters/Serong. Thoughts? Currently ranked just over 5k so thinking I should probably take a punt. Probably the Bont? I’m 8 scotch and cokes in so currently only have half a brain. Cheers 😘

Excellent stuff mate (as always). Truly appreciate the time and effort that yourself and TFP (there are others but can’t name everyone) put in. Deadset legends.

Mass has been one of our best players this year. No chance he gets dropped IMO. If he’s not named it will be soreness/management related I suspect.

You’re both bang on. Absolute shithole of a joint. Up until 2 years ago I’d attend every single game played in Melbourne (home or away). I skip the Marvel games now and watch in comfort from the couch. I do feel a bit guilty that I’m not there supporting the boys in these games but I just...

I feel awful saying this but it feels as though he actually is our captain (the way he plays, leads by example and speaks to the media). Would not be surprised if he is our captain next year. It may even help Sic as it has looked as if the world is on his shoulders so far this year. I love Sic...

He got them to a GF and should have won. Wouldn’t call that a failure.

Yeah, I’m not getting the calls for Chol to be dropped or ‘put on notice’. I think he’s been very handy and a massive upgrade on Kosi. He’s kicked goals, hit marking contests hard and competed well in the ruck. Has also laid some big tackles. Only way he’s out of the side is if he’s injured...

Did a great job on Cameron when we played the pussies. Kept him to 2.0. Cameron is close to if not the best forward in the game. Not many players in the game are able to keep Cameron to just 2 shots on goal. He also managed 16 disposals himself compared to Cameron’s 15. Yes, I would love to...

Disagree completely. Not sure what you were watching. Even the commentators were confused by a couple of them which says something.

The free kicks against Scrimmers were absolute rubbish. The umpire may as well have grabbed the ball lined up and put it through himself. Deplorable display of umpiring.

Wowww. Are you seriously saying we did not play a single night match last year? (genuine question as I have a terrible memory). If true that is absolutely disgusting. I’m assuming we were the only team to not play in one. Maybe 1 or 2 other teams max. My hatred of the AFL grows day by day.

Hi Jen, I come in peace. Just curious as to why Sidey would be considered for the sub role? Thought he turned the clock back last year and was great from the games I watched. Has he just slowed down a bit and age has finally caught up to him? I’ve followed his career closely as he’s my...

I think Ramsden will take the relief ruck duties in this one. We need Chol in the forward line the entire game with no Lewis.

That’s the thing though. He is massive and last year HE was looking and playing like the nicest brick sh!thouse in the AFL. This is why Reeves was our number one + his ability in the hitouts. I’m happy he is now starting use his frame effectively. He will need to continue doing this and...

Hahaha we offer a mil at 7 years and they offer 500k at 4 years + a land package on the beach for the rest of his life.

Amon is one of the best wingers in the comp. Just play him there FFS.
