    1. Bevo and this is done. Break it up.

    2. The list management team needs to be held accountable.

    3. English is a must sign now.

    1. Ruckman O'Brien killed us.

    2. Adelaide deserved their win.

    3. Caleb will have nightmares over that kick.

    1. Good things happen to bad people.

    2. In 2022, Cordy is a legitimately better ruckman than Martin.

    3. Ben Keays is better than any midfielder currently on our list.

    Yep Stef is cooked but tried hard. Best footy ended 4 to 5 years ago. Agree with the bad people mention Happy. He is a pr!#k.

    If I was getting $250k + a year I’d try too….. it’s *!*!*!*!ing embarrassing he is on our list.

    Agree, love the guy but he'd struggle to get a game in the VFL.

    The one thing he has helped with is his coaching of our rucks. Tim has improved immeasurably. O'Brien monstered Martin. Had 49 hit outs.

    Has Tim’s ruck craft actually improved?

    He is influencing games with his ‘following’ work rather than tap work.

    Just going by what I can see on tv plus his stats so yes his ruck work has improved.

    1) We don't have the depth to cover injuries

    2) We miss Bruce more than we ever could imagine. 48 goals in 20 games last year. Naughton was too easily outmarked today. Bruce is big experienced body who crashes and bashes packs. We are missing his prescence.

    3) Play Bont in the middle with small stints up forward. Not the other way around.

    Hit outs averaging 22 for 2022. Haven't got his figures for 2021 but confident it is an improvement.

    Can't find all his stats maybe someone else can.
