It’s my hottest take for season 2022… Andrew Brayshaw is a genuine Brownlow chance. Happy to take the heat for it but just love what I’m seeing. Had a great 2021 and just looks to have gone to another level over the preseason.

Spoke to Isaac Quaynor after the game about the ‘touched’ Banfield goal in the 4th quarter. “I’m not a liar, I didn’t touch it… but I was trying to claim it… I’m a liar to win a game but once it’s over, I’ll be honest” Full chat on @abcsport across the country tomorrow.

I just watched a senior staff member at ECU Mount Lawley tip each of the 3 young cafe staff $50 out of his own wallet to say thank you for continuing to come to work this time. Just something extra to help them if things get worse. Pretty amazing gesture.

WAFL players that AFL clubs need to draft this year: Bailey Rogers (24) Greg Clark (24) The thinking around mature-age recruits needs to change. A 24 year old can still give you 5-10 years of good footy. Batter than an 18 year old that fails and is out of the system in 2-3
