@brettyyh @GeoffProvest100 So you'd prefer to keep paying $2.50 a litre for fuel?
English
@BigKano89 @ScooterMcNeice @tim_michell lol.
This literally happened on draft night. Well after the trade period had ended.
Also only happened because Sharp, an SA product had slid down the board.
English
Do you think in hindsight Essendon should have taken Hawthorn's offer for Merrett?
I think it was unders but considering where the Bombers are at it doesn't look great right now.
English
@tommyfalmouth @tim_michell Petracca, 6 months younger than Merrett went for 2 top 8 picks in the same trade period.
And Melbourne were openly dealing him, not wanting to hold him.
English
@tim_michell Unders??? Even if you call it two first rounders and an early second it was a historically high offer for a 31 yr old
English
@Thommo_SCT @tim_michell Collective bargaining agreement doesn’t allow this. Players have the power to chose. It’s on the club to persuade or hold them.
English
@tim_michell I don't understand why Essendon didnt go with option C: Tell Merrett he can go, but to the team they choose based on trade equity.
Surely they could have landed an early and late first round pick for him?
Holding unhappy players rarely works out.
English
@tim_michell The only reason they didn’t is cause they don’t have confidence in their recruiting team picking the right players in the draft. They have a terrible recent history of picking duds. But do your due diligence and there are good players in the second third and fourth rounds.
English
@BigKano89 @ScooterMcNeice @tim_michell No one wanted to trade into the 2025 draft.
It was considered weak and compromised.
English
@ScooterMcNeice @tim_michell Could always have sought to turn them into picks for 2026.
English
@tim_michell It was farcical on all 3 sides of the situation but now it’ll always look worse on Essendon. They still grabbed 5 great kids in the draft.
As bad as they are. I don’t think the list/ draft picks is the current concern.
Gotta sort out that coaches box first. Oooft!
English
@tim_michell Hindsight’s a crazy thing.
Essendon will cop because they’re an absolute basket case on & off filed.
But at the time. New President, club captain and star, rival club.
No offer until 2nd last day lowball . Minimal time to negotiate.
Merrett n manager didn’t nuke…

@MarkAshton_7 @anthocat89 @Gatty54 @AlboMP You’ve had a little too much internet Marky.
Time to go outdoors and enjoy some fresh air.

Of petrol prices were “surging” under Scott Morrison what are they doing under you @AlboMP. Thief!
Anthony Albanese@AlboMP
Do you reckon Scott Morrison has been to a petrol station lately? Petrol prices are surging on his watch.
English
@anthocat89 @MarkAshton_7 @Gatty54 @AlboMP Hahaha exactly.
Pauline backed by Gina. Yeah, that’ll be for the people! 🙄

@rookiecoachafl I have the cash but I don’t see the point when I have Jackson English & Mcandrew in Flex. Would mean ditching English or benching Mcandrew from next week.
Just take the hit this week and move on!
English
Non Xerri Owners....what are you doing this week? #SuperCoach #AFL
English
You ever get the feeling early in the season that one of your #AFLFantasy draft teams might be cooked?
Yeah nah me neither 🫠🫠🫠

Jordan Dawson won’t play the Cats. Crows skipper dealing with a calf issue @7NewsAdelaide

@AGissara @The_PrenderCast Marvel stadium = Ticketmaster.
Ticketmaster = Live Nation.
Live Nation = Dynamic Pricing.
Dynamic Pricing = Ripping off the consumer.
Algorithms are coming up with those prices and it isn’t really ok. But they get away with it.
English
@The_PrenderCast Jesus who is coming up with these prices and thinking it’s ok?
For that price you’d want free food and drinks before, during and after the game
English
It gets worse.
Here are tickets in the same area for Essendon vs North Melbourne on Saturday 28 March.
What the hell is going on?
The Prendercast II: Secret of the Blues@The_PrenderCast
It’s actually as much as $159. For a home and away match. Between two sides who wont be contesting the premiership this year. A similar ticket for Manchester United vs Leeds in a couple of weeks time is ~$140 There’s out of touch and then there’s this.
English
@AFLSC360 @ThePhantomSC At least we aren’t the ones paying a milly for him 😅

@al_supercoach Hahaha!
We look at him, then look at him again. Then bring in Dan Houston instead.
Only to bring Parker in months later for 600k+ when he’s proven to go full Ziebell 😆
English
What’s the plan if Luke Parker scores 115 this week?

@matteo_bas Even now with Errol out. I’m like “I should get Bont… but do I chase cash?!?” 😆
English
I just checked my preseason notes that I started at the end of last season. At the top of the page I wrote: Pick the Bont no matter what…under that I wrote: Seriously just pick Bont… I did not pick him…#Supercoach
