dumb decision. We get two bites at the cherry with 7 &8. Depending on which phantom draft you look at we can get an outside mid Jaidyn Stephenson, Jack Higgins, Lochie O'Brien and a defender Noah Balta, Harrison Petty or Aaron Naughton. Or we can get Luke Davies-Uniacke, Cameron Rayner, Paddy Do...

Thanks SR - DJ I am assuming you were adding in some comedic value not just list clogging the forum[/quote] Partly. But I am a little over getting in delisted or damaged players from other clubs. Players get delisted for a reason mainly they are not at AFL standard. Yes it can work to a certain exte...

We take a big pile of money and set fire to it. 2 clubs and neither were happy with him. Out for a season with injury, caught doing blow and he is average at best. Another list clogger

I have little confidence in Paddy McC being a regular senior player, with his diabetes and that other issue... He may play 16 games in a row, in an ideal world, but I don't think he can play 3 in a row comfortably. Therefore I would love the club to grab the best forward prospect, to add to our oth...

He will go earlier than 7 so not really an option. I hope we keep both picks and get an outside mid and a key defender, not two mids. Shame Brander will go at pick 6 or earlier. I don't want Fogarty due to him being injured already and we cant take the gamble. Higgins looks good but we already have ...

I hope not. I don't want any more short term solutions. Lets look mid term now.

Why is everyone so keen to get rid of picks 7 & 8? Is it because we dont trust our recruiters? If yes then why not deal with that issue directly by improving or better resourcing our recruitment team? Agree. completely. We have 2 top ten draft picks, use them to get 2 kids with potential and tr...

Great news. Seriously it wasn't going to happen and now false hope is gone. Rather than trade in a great player in its now for us to draft our own or train our players up to be a grade players. So onto the draft for one gun mid and key defender

Good to hear that they will have full training this off season but i have some thoughts There is talk of Paddy switching to the back line which isn't a terrible idea, at least to start with. It will let him see the whole game laid out in front of him and learn how the ball comes into the fifty from ...

It will all come down to what we are offered for him. He had a bad season and it is he's own fault. If you are injured, don't play until better. I don't think he will get traded independently i.e. he will be part of a deal to get a better player to St Kilda. It just depends on whom. i.e would you gi...

If you read the article it basically says he was offered one year by us and is looking to see if he can get a longer one elsewhere. He won't be but he may be added to any deal done with GWS so hopefully we can see the back of him. Best case scenario he trains his arse off pre season and become capa...

It is far from the worst thing to take both our picks to the draft, in fact I want it to happen. We need 2 more players, an outside mid and a key defender and we can get both with our picks. Kelly is a gun sure but he cant play defence and the midfield plus he is unlikely to come to us if he leaves....

Except for the 2018 predictions which is just guess work, it was hard to argue with what they said. Props paid to Billings for playing better but still needs to go up a gear and to Roberton for a great pick up from the west although I am nervous he hasn't put pen to paper. Geary praised for his role...

We need him up back for when Brown retires plus for what I have seen he may not make the team for a while. He is pretty slow and a big turning circle so he should focus on his current postion

Stephenson is quick and agile, DJH. Dare I say it, a little "Bont -like". Has the ability to make things happen. He's be a good outside runner who can finish well. Think Will Hoskin Elliott, who would've been a very handy pick up for us, had the filth not courted him so strongly. I'd be v...

Very amusing OP. I feel we need 2 established and talented players on our list next year. Kelly and Whitfield or Rockliffe. We can get through next season with Brown at FB. If we go to the draft with our 2 picks in the top 10 we will pick, Jarrod Brander and Jaiden Stephenson. Thats my nearest to t...

trade bait?

Richo does some odd things at times including team selection. Shine off the apple with him at present but a good start to next year will make me eat my words

not at all, one and a sweetener (e.g. Webster) but not two and maybe get a later round pick back . GWS will want something big to go with our pick so be real they wont take a fringe player. We need two players this draft, an outside mid and a key defender. If Carlisle or Brown goes down/suspended th...

Brown has filled his role adequately and has at least another year in him so not passed his used by date at all. Goddard has not shown anything worth cheering about yet so I am thinking he is at least a year away so I would draft another defender with one of our draft picks and an outside mid with t...

Lonie???? WTF How many times this year. The kid can't tackle at all. He is too light and his attack isn't great either. Granted he is to good for VFL but he is not good enough for afl yet. Big off season with some bulk on him then sure, but this game it is a waste for another player

What about Acres? I think he is slightly over rated or not living up to potential. So many times he does great things and then something stupid that costs a goal. I think that if we got some value for him we should think about it No way. I'm out keen on seeing him become a star of the competition f...
