An AFL academy - great idea. “Lesser clubs” can develop players who can then get picked up by franchise clubs, or “big clubs”.

James Podsialy (?spelling) I think may have been a midseason pickup (from VFL) and was an immediate success. Mind you he was an established VFL mature aged player. Some here wanted him delisted because he didn’t do much in his first half season, carrying injury. 🙄

Pity it wasn’t a Norm Smith instead of a Downlow.

Daniels "great ball use" lead directly to Gus' goal in the GF that put us ahead ... the rest is history.

him - who?

JVR played very well as a forward, and commendably as a ruck, but this definitely detracted from his forward production and development. Will Campbell alleviate this problem, or is he only a back up if Max were absent?

corrected time frame

Axis - well we saw that didn’t work; didn’t appear to even considered when we were at ruck rock bottom.

Where can we get the club to mail you an application form for list manager, game day coach and chairman of selectors, fence? (PS I agree 100% that Fullarton seems to have been a terrible pick up)

Knowing Collingwood fans' collective mentality, I suspect some will "boo" Crips next year because he stole Daicos' Downlow Medal.

But surely he will want to go to Geelong. 🙄😱

Maybe we should employ the said Mr Razor in a new role - “umpire liaison” 🙄

It may well blow up anyway even your mentioning that name.

Schadenfreude at its tastiest 🤗🤗 Didn’t Buckley rip his (the one Voss deserved but voting took place mid last quarter) off immediately and throw it away?

Agree DS - in some of the early rounds the ball was delivered sharp and low forward on many occasions, so much so that I thought the days of bomb it long to the pocket heavy packs were possibly a thing of the past. Sadly we reverted to type pretty soon.

And I thought that Darcy Fort did a great job, though I feel very sorry for the ex-Casey player, Big O.

And the only other team to win from outside the 4 beat …. $ydney

surely the media need to run a headline on the GW$ poor culture.

No

I don’t believe that just because one doesn’t enjoy watching women play football it makes one misogynistic.

Paywall. Agree with most of your points, s o n s, except for JVR. He does apply pressure and tackles, but unfortunately is often buggered by stints in the ruck.

One massive dose of schadenfreude would be watching Daniher the Essendon family icon who told the Bombers to get lost, holding up the cup and waving it to the Bomber fans

Even way back then 🙄

Dangerfield tackle - “nothing to see here. Move on” MChristian
