Goddard, dal santo and Lyon Wouldn’t have left so they could be competing for a couple more years as well. I’m not actually sure how they managed to fit all that talent in 1 lineup but it could have been due to reduced salaries.

Trading Ben Brown could make or break Rhyce Shaw's coaching career

Hopefully you win

Yep correct regarding ya last statement, they lost by 9 but had 1 more scoring shot. I’m so tempted to write something on those st Kilda days, they did a excellent job picking up star players from the draft.
The 2007-2011 cats were something else (I could be bias) but 4 chances at a premiership and purely dominating the home and away season. They had star players everywhere. The 2008 one was unfortunate, Hawthorn somehow won due to Dew magic and inaccurate cats goal kicking. The saints were excellent too, just couldn’t finish on the big dance unfortunately.

Yep, funnily enough in 2004 and 2005 they lost to eventual premiers. Then could have had 2 more in 2009 and 2010, who knows. 4 flags in 6 years, a saints dynasty that never happened.

You could argue that Gehrigs 100th cost them the prelim and a shot at the grand final in 2004

No wonder Hawkins was giving them all off, he didn’t want the Coleman hoodoo 🙂

He was being rested a lot but I have no clue of that has anything to do with it

Out of favour: More players who will be at new clubs next year

Long sleeves most games 😁

I’m hoping Steven recovers the form that won him a couple b&fs

I’ve heard Geelong are trying to get Higgins but seems useless for both teams.

Collingwood seems to be our bogey team, however, but agree with most.

AFL 2020 finals forecast: One like few before

Saw that Macrae and Guthrie only spend 4 and 17% on the wing respectively, chuck actually wingers in there. Could be the same for the Bont.

Patrick Dangerfield named captain of All Australian side

Getting rid of Howard to the Saints may cost Port.

AFL finals: Week 1 preview

Yep, he did incredibly well against a couple of the best defenders in the league, Pat Bev, Kawhi, Pg and is dominating teams that don’t have A good defender. Hopefully it’s the next step and he gets a bit more consistent. I’d rather he performed in the playoffs then the regular season unlike other players. Playoff defence is elite compared to the poor defence of the regular season.

Is Jamal Murray a superstar?

I’m arguing your reasoning, he has had great games and is the best player in the comp but maybe he is in because of his name.

The Roar's AFL expert tips and predictions: All Australian team

Gil, Kevin Bartlett, Luke Darcy, Steve, Glen Jakovich, Chris Johnson, Cameron Ling, Matthew Richardson and Warren Tredrea are the selectors

So premiership favourites allow for selection, why isn’t Chol in there? Bit disappointing

Could be doing it for clicks

Grundy is a seven-year albatross hanging around Collingwood’s neck

Agree completely PTS, I wouldn’t be surprised if they said Grundy was managing a injury. If so just rest him? His second efforts are gone and although he wins the hit outs they aren’t very effective anymore.

So is a 47 point turnaround even? I wouldn’t blame that much of a lead on 2 men down but we will see what happens.

Predictions for the 2020 AFL finals

What prevented the Cats injuries I’d reckon where to us cycling players over the short day breaks, Collingwood didn’t do a lot of it and maybe where punished later on.

Collingwood's broken system is doomed to fail

Daniel is key to whatever they do, shut him down and I don’t think they go anywhere

Jeremy Cameron and Tom Hawkins would be a nice forward line 😁

AFL trades: Zac Williams, Aidan Corr and the giant problem at GWS

Then again, those teams were coming up against elite teams. Port were facing a Geelong team that won 3/5 premierships and lost 2008 thanks to Dew. Richmond have dominated the past years, but you would hope they would be a little more competitive.

Predictions for the 2020 AFL finals

Wass, Bulldogs have beaten the easy teams, not the elite teams. The west coast game they dominated But it was a bit expected considering west coasts injuries. For. the geelong game, I’d argue and say Geelong were the better team for 3 quarters, would the 2 men down help them, who knows.
