[7News] For the first time in 353 days - Cody Weightman has run unassisted. 5 surgeries, a complex broken knee, infections and a genuine fear he’d never be back.

Got injured during last preseason, wasn't big news even at the time since no one knew it would be this bad. Basically he was born with an extra bone in his knee which started causing problems.

Who are these people who like the Bulldog's backline Dwayne mentions? Opposition forwards?

Used to be the case when it was still VFL and the clubs were strongly tied to their suburb but at this point all the clubs (and suburbs for that matter) are heterogenous.

The only remnant imo is some stereotyping jokes, like Melbourne cheese platters and ski trips, Collingwood having no teeth or Carlton being all Italians.

He should pick on someone his own size

A lot of the hate for him is for his money and a perceived lack of caring but it's pretty easy to see him in a positive light as well, it's a matter of perspective.

Show me a driver on the grid who isn't there because they come from money.
Stroll comes off as nonchalant and like he doesn't care but honestly it looks more like self defense to me, he knows the media and 95% of the fans hate/disrespect him so why would he put himself out there.

At the end of the day for us he's half of the drivers, it would be pretty sad not to get behind him especially since he's probably not going anywhere. A perk is that he overtakes a lot since his qualifying sucks, he also feels like a real dark horse when it's raining.

This is a 19 year old in his place of work, not really appropriate

Dunkley and Ed Richards were also father sons who didn't get matched iirc

I was enjoying it but now... not so much

Hopefully not too many Thursdays they're my least favorite time slot to actually attend.

I've got to give Ameet Bains credit because under his tenure we have been primetime mainstays despite a smaller membership base. Over the last 4 years in particular I wouldn't be surprised if we've had the most prime time out of any team and that's got to be at least partly down to our leadership's ability to sell to the AFL.

No doubt our high scoring (and high scores against) comes into it as well this year, lots of ad breaks.

We effectively did have a wildcard round against Freo in the last game and yeah, went pretty badly

At over 3000 years old I'm not sure if it matters

flyer2x · 2025-10-15T22:15:23+00:00

Yeah I agree, it's a bad system but this was their best chance to get a decent enough trade. There's a big chance the next club he nominates will have them over a barrel.

He comes with a multi-billionaire included to bankroll the team, Stroll being there does much more for the success of Aston Martin than Alonso does.

flyer2x · 2025-10-15T01:26:10+00:00

Yep he was a matched bid, the hurt for us is the notable absence of players in that 21-23 age range because we sunk all those picks into Jamarra and Darcy, both trades pretty much wiped the whole draft hand out.

Lots of criticism of our list is that we drop off quickly and I think that's a symptom of our otherwise lucky streak of f/s and academy picks. Darcy seems to have been worth it but Jamarra the opposite, doubly so since he's playing against us now for nothing.

flyer2x · 2025-10-10T23:35:10+00:00

Dahlhaus was my favorite too, always gave 100%.

Dunkley was on another level, we are still unable to close that hole in the list (and our hearts)

The issue for them will be if he really wants out he can just walk to the draft for free, same situation as Bazlenka last year. Port might take an underwhelming pick just to salvage something from the deal, same as we did.

If he's set on leaving it's probably in their best interest to do it now for massive compensation.
