I think Lovett is OVER-RATED! He is turning 27 soon. He has a history of being trouble off the field (with the law, not getting on with his coaches, lacking dedication etc.) Started to be more consistent this year (played 22/23 games) but who wouldn't in a contract year? 21 goals in 22 games - nothi...

Re: BALL

If he goes to Collingwood its likely we will get screwed (Heath Black anyone?). If Jolly goes to Coll, they will trade their first pick (#14). That leaves little to trade for Ball - we have little leverage here. If I were the saints I would be asking for Rusling/Wood + 2nd round pick. For anyone who...

Pick 60 from Brisbane will be the one moving in the Seaby-Staker-Buchanon-Dalziell trade, going from the Lions to the Eagles. West Coast are winners of that trade IMO.

From memory he has speed, and a booming long kick. But not sure skills wise how he goes - he is often maligned by Freo supporters. He is 26 years old - a big query there, and has played only 75 AFL games. His 09 efficiency stats - http://superstats.heraldsun.com.au/profile/240701.html I wouldn't tou...

Why would Maguire go anywhere? Max is gone, so Maguire steps up to being the first defensive reserve; he will be close to the 22. I expect Gilbert to go forward next year (he trained there all of pre-season) to offer us a third marking target, and this allows Maguire to slot into the 22 (starting ba...
