    1. The small forwards Jones, Scott and Weightman are now settled and doing well as a unit.
    2. Rankine thinks he is better than he is.
    2. It is a good thing imo that players and supporters can kiss Ballarat goodbye until 2024.

    1. The coaching team have their work cut out with Bailey Smith stamping his authority on that midfield group and Treloar on the verge of coming back. Going to be a juggling act getting the best out of them both with centre square spots hard to come by.

    2. I think we're seeing Libba's best season. Aging like a fine Barolo.

    3. JOD is a defender for the future. Think he has the look of a very good Centre Half Back and he's right in the mix with Gardner, Keath and Bruce for that spot next to Jones. Excellent athlete, attacks it in the air and confident when he does have the footy.

    It's a Dorian Grey thing. Right now Happy Days has a very sore back, his knees are shot and his hair is receding.

    Not at all - just saying while Libber doesn't age his identical portrait Happy Days is doing it for him.

    Happy to make the sacrifice.

    1. Ballarat games are pretty fun! It is cold as hell but the atmosphere is much, much better than at a Marvel game. Would recommend but maybe bring some gloves.

    2. Liam Jones is the best key defender in the AFL right now. Not even the most optimistic among us could’ve expected what he’s produced and he’s weirdly growing in confidence every week.

    3. Bailey Ball is back. Williams and Smith have maybe never looked better than they have in the last month and Dale had easily his best game for the year today.

    We’re really good! Feels much better than being bad.

    Baldness is passed on, not by the father but the mother.

    1. Caleb Daniel can play midfield and play it quite well. Building nicely.
    2. Bailey Williams he has the potential to be one of the best wingman in the game.
    3. JUH is building nicely into our CHF. If he can tidy up his goal kicking he will be even more damaging in the next 2 to 3 years.
    More of an In Bruges guy?

    1. We still need to invest in a goal kicking coach
    2. We will miss JJ. He is having his best year since 2016
    3. I think Doc is hugely under rated. He is the Mathew Boyd of our 2016 team
    BB.

    Looking forward - Naughton, Darcy and JUH. It will be the envy of everyone.
