    But I have a few hobby horses so I can see why I'd be ignored!
    Suckling came 7th one year. I want to hear from EW about the integrity of the top 10 places.

      How bad were we going?

      Although that's part of my frustration with Suckling. He could play, just most of the time he chose not to.

          Oh that's right because he didn't get to play in our premiership because he was "injured".

            Can you imagine the alternate timeline where we drop Biggs for Suckling? Thought it was certain to happen at the time.

            I don’t even mind Suckling but that would’ve thrown the universe out of order and we would’ve lost by a million.

                I dunno. You might have read the headline "AFL player zotted in the head by beer cup thrown from second level".

                  Well la-de-da someone sits on the second level. Shouldn't you be drinking Grange up there?

                        And Brendan McCartney hand to god tried to claim some credit for 2016. Embarrassing.

                          Doesn't he though?

                          His insistence on players with a hard edge and "cracking in" meant we had some legitimate tough guys in 2016. It's something we're definitely lacking now.

                              Did we get him as part of the Stringer Trade? Looking at him tonight I'd consider us a the winners if it was a straight trade Stringer for Richards

                                Part of it with our other picks added. Schache included too. But we gave up picks used on gun players too.
