f****** Richmond. I watched the replay. I shouldnt have done it. Granted, with all humility, they were the better team on the night and really never looked like we could beat them. But holy snapping duckshit. They are a protected species. The treatment of Max King was just completely unacceptable. ...

Really only worth getting A graders. As good as say Constable looks....we have his level covered. Taranto is an established young gun on his way to elite. Caldwell we think has the potential to be there also. Brad Crouch already an A grade talent. DeGoey A grade with the possibility of Top 10 in the...

I agree with the OP with scenarios 1 and 2. I think it is a combo of those two. My (completely baseless) gut feel is....he would like to come but is having a bit of a guilt trip from the club around loyalty. All I would say is....Who do you want to have an entire playing career with? Do you want to ...

Mids: Caldwell (If Cameron resigns with gws we have a chance, if Cam leaves I think he stays at gws) Crouch ( gettable) Forwards: Brown ( decent value) , Cameron ( dreaming), Gunston? McCarthy ( no/ low cost long shot) Ruck/Forward: Wright? Preuss ( we'd have to outbid GWS) We need picks to secure ...

Just get a gun midfielder FFS....Max, ROMA, Membrey and Battle....enough to trouble any team.....Another preseason into Max and he'll go nuts.

Just let all their players walk out through the PSD and let Essendon get nothing. An informal arrangement between clubs to let them get where they want to go for 1 year. That should get Dodoro sacked and drag Esendon into line with 17 other clubs Why would you want him sacked? Surely make the decis...

Slightly surprised not to have Caldwell nominate us yet.

Thought it would be the perfect week to get it rolling if he had made up his mind.

Preuss has nominated GWS already.

The worst thing you could do is tune in at 9am on a Saturday. Without doubt the worst sports program I have ever encountered in my life. Craig Hutchinson and and Liam Pickering.....three hours of talking absolute crap among themselves. They should be ashamed at the self indulgent, moronic banter th...

What should have happened is a 50m penalty, a goal and then the push and shove remonstration which would have fired us up.

Umpires were criminally pissweak

Max needs to work on his posture...says me, the posture expert. But he does seem hunched over and apologetic, whereas Lynch looks like a right prick. Max needs to start throwing his arms up when he is getting ministered off the ball in order to catch the attention of Umpires like all other forwards...

A mate of mine pointed out that he has become like that ever since he started going out with Rick Kennedy's daughter...he was an 80's thug and Cotchin has been trying to impress his father in law

Reminds me of that prophet in Life of Brian....

A friend will lose a friend's hammer....

I'll be very surprised if Billings isn't Top 5, let alone Top 10.

I forgot Butler top 3

Billings tasted well but tailed away badly.
I wonder if he is carrying a mild OP injury.

Whatever, no more trade rumours for here. Keep them coming Don’t let the one or two change what you post. I don’t know why some are negative in here, it is literally a forum to discuss and speculate, but just keeping posting what you know many appreciate the convo. Can't be bothered sorry. Not wort...

Im hearing a big announcement is imminent... Expect an interesting trade period some players to be shipped out and we are looking to strengthen in midfield ( as we know) and KPP in attack and possibly in defence. Carlisle contract very incentive based showing they are not fully invested in him as t...

Does the coach see Battle long term as forward or a defender? He's splayed better in defence, but he's shown enough up forward to suggest that he can do it. He's still very young Looked great in the back half on Saturday, bit equally good marking in the forward 50. He is shaping as an absolute ripp...

we are soft as a team. Cotchin should heve been set upon by many ..not 1. Not many go for the hard ball as well. Bruise free footy, that's us. Getting a hard edge will be the next step in development. We are not a soft team, but certainly not a hard one....yet. There is sti a place for an enforcer ...

Hopefully McKenzie will go....I'd like to hold onto Parker and see what he can become with another year of development

What is happening Jaxons ?

Should have been a 50m and a certain goal. Just watched replay. We were genuinely screwed by the umpires especially in the first half. 5 decisions (or non decisions) in the first quarter and 6 in the second. 4 in the third quarter including the video goal review. We were absolutely in that game and ...

Gunston and Taranto and Caldwell would make us a premiership threat for along time to come.

Probably have to trade

Billings (which would hurt)

Seems you like old men with little future left.
Why not me, I am only 68.
I won't be able to train or play but my name would look good on the list.

We can only offer you $400,000 a year ace, but you'll get to lead the team song. Deal?

Devon Smith looked good to me. Can snap 50m goals off a step and is a tackling machine.

What have posters got against him apart from being a Bombers player?
