When freo got smashed by geelong the other week and everyone was up in arms saying how the fans should be demanding answers. I was telling people that most freo fans already realise their club has spent the majority of their history being a laughing stock. They don't care about the odd humiliation on the first cos the last 10 years have been the best the club has ever seen.

I see Dangerfield has his previous selection years on his AA jacket, I wonder if they give them a new jacket each time or get them to give back the original one for updating as they go

racing identity posted:Just had a look at Adelaide's draft history - they're good at nailing the first round. Here are their 1st rounders back to 2010 I always wonder if this sort of thing is down to good talent identification or good player development. Apart from Doedee none of those first round picks were particularly surprising so I'm sure player development and coaching has more to do with it than people generally give credit for.

Dude just gets like 30+ possessions a game and doesn’t really seem to get injured. I dunno. I think he’s massively underrated or at least undermentioned

Neale is a gun, the lions would have to give up a lot for freo to let him go.

Bernie Vince has announced his retirement Not too many players get to win a B&F nevermind win one at two different clubs. He was a really good fit for the Demons. We also got him for the pick we received for trading Sylvia to Freo

Bernie was an insane upgrade over Sylvia. He had a lot of brain fades but you can’t question his intent and he provided a lot on field and off, really good trade for us. I think we’ll be better off for not trying to fit both him and Lewis in the backline going forward though, it made us very slow when they were both in

# ? Aug 30, 2018 04:46 |
|
I REALLLY hope we can hold onto Neale, 2nd most important player at the club after Fyfe, and a close 2nd at that. He still has a year to run on his contract before he becomes a free agent. And Col Sylvia, what a great trade that was

gently caress. What I thought might have been the reason he didn't play last weekend is true, Belinda and Rory Sloan lost their first child who was stillborn last week. RIP little Leo.

Ergh stillbirth is such a grotesque thing to happen to a couple. A miscarriage is one thing but carrying the kid to nearly full term only for that to happen must be one of the worst things you can experience.
