"Essendon wonna be influencer"

[The Flight Plan @FlightPlanPod]

Kiddy Coleman comes to Essendon specifically identifying our strong indigenous heritage as a factor.

Days later, Nik Cox is delisted. Which number did he wear?

13. The number made famous by indigenous icon Michael Long.

Coleman taking over 13 makes all the sense in the world

@RFA76 @PaulTredrea "Since" he left. Not "because".

[The Flight Plan @FlightPlanPod]

Jack Ginnivan is a seriously impressive young man. I've went out of my way to consume some Ginni content this week & I couldn't do a faster 180 on my opinion.

In hindsight Hawthorn & Collingwood's fortunes have basically reversed after that trade & Hawthorn has a left-field leader who's making a habit out of proving people wrong...

[The Flight Plan @FlightPlanPod]

@RFA76 @PaulTredrea Collingwood went from winning the flag to missing the finals twice in three years and the Hawks made SF, PF, PF since he joined.

It's a pretty dramatic shift

[The Flight Plan @FlightPlanPod]

@RFA76 @PaulTredrea 1. I imply, you infer

2. I mustn't be coming across as well as i thought. What I said was a complete 180 from the original opinion. Hawks fans said he's muture, I thought there's no chance. But when i actually gave him a chance my entire mindset on him reversed.

@michaeljbeamish Sheedy always said 'you need a cowboy to win flags'

[The Flight Plan @FlightPlanPod]

I appreciate the Hawthorn fans I've encountered recently that don't feel the need to belittle or be a prick for no reason.

I can't stand people who reply with variants of "like an Essendon fan can talk".

So that would mean had they been top-4 in 2026, the exact same point verbatim would suddenly become astute?

Personal attacks (especially with slurs) over a footy opinion/joke is far beyond the line of acceptable & I've reporting all of them going forward

Melbourne fans BTW

@RFA76 Re-read it.

"I couldn't do a faster 180."

"*I* couldn't"

[The Flight Plan @FlightPlanPod]

I love Archie Roberts & believe he's got that something special, I just cannot believe how badly we dropped the ball with Mass. He's definitely in a great spot with a good team but come on! We needed a winger so badly but Jake Kelly was preferred?

Silly blunder

@gregpeartpolish You're the number 1 ticket holder 😅

[The Flight Plan @FlightPlanPod]

@gregpeartpolish It's the Todd Davey effect. Seems to be a wanker but is a solid gold mate when you get to know him 😅

@Kyptastic1 What does Tuesday's Footy Classified, Eddie McGuire Tonight, Footy Show, 1 vs 100, Millionaire Hot Seat & the entire Nine network have in common?

[The Flight Plan @FlightPlanPod]

...Unless you live outside Melbourne, then you're no hope of seeing them 😅

[Collingwood FC @CollingwoodFC]

Coming to a football field near you in 2027 🤩

512 games of experience, five All-Australian blazers, two Brownlow Medals and a Coleman Medal in black and white!

Adam Saad just can't help following in the footsteps of his idol Nick Hind, can he?

Hind was so ahead of the times he was delisted in 2024...

Before it was cool

[The Flight Plan @FlightPlanPod]

@maxblake9and44 Yes, because it's a very real position that they're hiring for

[The Flight Plan @FlightPlanPod]

It can't be a coincidence that as soon as Rampe's Sydney future became uncertain, Essendon flagged its intent to find a climbing the goal post coach...

[3AW Football @3AWisfootball]

Will Dane Rampe play on in 2027? 🤔

Former Swans list boss Kinnear Beatson weighs in.

[The Flight Plan @FlightPlanPod]

@wingsting Re-read it & tell me what was incorrect

[The Flight Plan @FlightPlanPod]

Just a reminder on the 3 1st round picks GWS got for Jez Cameron.

13 Tanner Bruhn (now at Geelong)
15 Conor Stone (delisted)
20 Ryan Angwin (averaging just 10 games a season)

This is exactly why context matters when discussing 1st rounders in trades

[The Flight Plan @FlightPlanPod]

@wingsting Just calm down & breathe....

Relax.

[The Flight Plan @FlightPlanPod]

@Maynardgcrabbs Yep & will report to cyber crimes. Not 1% of this is okay to say

[The Flight Plan @FlightPlanPod]

On what planet is it ok to flippantly throw out homophobic BS to a stranger over a footy tweet?

Everyone should report this guy & show people like him they're not welcome on this app.

Can't imagine Melbourne would be thrilled about this 'fan's' social media presence neither

[The Flight Plan @FlightPlanPod]

These kind of fees are really hitting us Freo members for six...
