There are some things you can't measure as well.
Narcissists tend to suck the life out of any environment they're in. Work, group of friends having a drink at a pub, a footy club.
Solid, selfless, team (and club) first citizens will do me.
Adelaide - B+
Solid draft for the Crows and the most predictable as the draft nights approached with them getting locals Sid Draper and Tyler Welsh. Both should be just about ready to go with Draper adding some slickness to Adelaide's midfield. It's hard to argue against his selection...
...was that we got reamed on the Baz deal and there is an argument that can be made.
The net result though is Baz and pick 45 out, MatthewKennedy, Cooper Hynes and a chunk of cap in.
MK and CH come across as solid citizens who love a scrap and have their teammates back.
I'll bet very few in...
Hawthorn settle Federal Court case with Indigenous players

Hawthorn have settled their Federal Court case with Indigenous former players and their families, apologising for their experiences at the...
I think when you look at the coaching tree of all the premiership winning coaches (maybe even all the current day coaches) they can pretty much all be traced back to one of Norm Smith, Tom Hafey or Allan Jeans.
As an example, Fages spent time at Hawthorn with Clarko, who spent time with Mark...
Agreeing with a lot of your post, but, do we have an actual plan to play Jackson as a midfielder? I mean, roving to Darcy.
I like the fantasy, haven't noticed much to suggest we're moving in that direction.
Darcy has had such a bad run with injuries I suspect we just tandem ruck/forward them.
Three A Grade inside mids with **** all support outside of fringe players and Bolton (who'll need to play 70+% forward for us) doesn't make us a top four side. If we're not a top four side we're not winning a premiership.
Genuinely believe it's as simple as that.
Agree with posters that say an...
...there, you've got headaches. If they both get there, you're basically hoping 1 of them loves WA so much that they accept being the MatthewKennedy of this team.
I'm not on "don't get an inside mid". Reality is many if not most non-key position/ruck prospects play some midfield time in their...
Passing on Dunkley continues to haunt them to this very day. He was/is exactly the type of big bodied mid they needed to take over from Kennedy when he retired. They have never really filled the Kennedy void since, which makes me smile every time. Doing the pick swap with Weddle is hilarious. If...
Found this to be really interesting reading - how much un-luck have we had when we’ve had high picks?
How bad (in comparison) were:
2016 where we had 1st for McGrath
2020 covid draft where we had 3x late top 10 picks
Not sure I agree on there being 4 worse than the 2020 Covid draft…...

...draft. Refreshing the bottom edges of our midfield is why we are looking at Pick 3. Ben Camporeale and Cooper Lord and have let MatthewKennedy and Jack carroll go.
Our culture would already be pretty poor if you believe that our players have a mindset of "I'm upset because we cut a player...

Just want to give thanks and a shout out to the many Blues supporters who've posted their best wishes and positive reviews for MatthewKennedy on the Bulldogs board. Full of class Blues supporters - it's much appreciated by your Bullies brothers and sisters. Let's hope that Bam Bam has a great...
...draft selection (currently pick 38) to Carlton.
Carlton receives Geelong's 2024 round 2 draft selection (currently pick 38) and give MatthewKennedy to the Western Bulldogs.
St Kilda receives Jackson Macrae from the Western Bulldogs and gives its 2024 round 3 draft selection (currently pick...
You would've been happy to get nothing at all for Smith?
We lost and were belted up in an Elim Final. We were soft. Are we improving by keeping Macrae and Daniel on the list? No, we're not. We're treading water.
Are there players worse than those two on our list, absolutely. Would they get us...
Yeah, he is. The pick back was right on Matthew’s value, so everyone is happy.
Although it will likely be absorbed by a Ben/Lucas Camporeale bid, from SOS. He’s going to try to get one on Carlton for the rest of his career. Good luck I guess. 😂
...offer. I'm glad he isn't our problem anymore. We gave him an opportunity all those years ago and treated us poorly at the end.
- MatthewKennedy is a good acquisition in the midfield and can play half forward so will help there. Won't address the pace through our midfield.
