Dust settled we have

1st Round - Stkilda
2nd Round -Adelaide
3rd Round -StKilda, Melbourne

Really like what we have done this off season and the overall change in the demographic and clearing out of some stale players, however to me the greatest rubbish to come from fans mouths is the comment "Play the kids" . Its the catch cry of all who support the teams at the bottom like the...

That makes 37 senior players plus 2 rookie B and 4 rookie A for a total of 43 players. The club is now limited to 1 more rookie A I suspect they decided to grab Schoenmaker in the main draft than let him go into the rookie draft where St Kilda would miss him. That probably means they will not take ...

Love the positivity here, some already having jumping on a plane and heading home before he leaves the state based on the fact he is from WA, and a bit shy on TV. This kid was rated on draft boards a lot higher than this so a great pick and if the club have the right structures and cultures within t...

Are they looking to build up their cash reserves to fund huge payouts to Rod Owen and others with shared experience ? The bulldogs are facing a $6 million payout for historic abuse to players. We've all heard of what happened to Rod and others . The fact that Finnis apologised a couple of years ago...

I see the club is reaching out again with the launch of this program to boost funds to put directly into the football program. My initial reaction I must say as a long term member of over 40 years was "Again?". Granted details haven't yet been provided to what the levels of donation will p...

went last year which was great, just hope i can get tickets. Cant believe Rich v Stk not at adelaide oval. They have like 80k members we have 60k
Surely North, GC, WC, GWS, Bris , WB and Freo or WC should be at the small venues??

Just saw Stewart from Essendon training over Summer. Was udner contract at Essendon and delisted - so gets paid by Essendon. If we were to pick him up , and obviously only if good enough, will basically cost nothing. Where did you see that? After delisting Adams & Highmore we obviously need ano...

Since when has John Ralph become an ‘expert’? Gone are the days when columnists reported news and reporters reported! Let experts write opinion pieces Guys like him and Barrett think they are in the AFL and their opinion matters! Most of that is outside perception crap and has no insight. Could hav...

D mac currently out of contract.Depending on how Germany goes nay take a rookie spot.

Wilkie Howard Battle Webster NWM Sinclair Wood Crouch Henry Marshall Steele Windhager Hill Butler Higgins King Sharman Owens Clark Ross Caminitti Phillipou Sub: Jones EMG: Stocker Dow Byrnes Cordy Unknown: Membrey, young players Keeler, Hotton, Van Es, draftees or DFA we may take Who will be our wi...

Now trading is done ( pick swaps can still happen) i thought i would start the Rnd 1 best 22 discussion. I have used the following parameters to get to this: - expected natural improvement after another pre season - fit list (unlikely but can hope) - older guys early round may be a little behind oth...

Reporting Melbourne are interested
Swap Billings, 21,40 for 11 and 42 ( makes billing worth pick 41)

Ok so we have 13 and 22 and 35? Coffield and 56 to WB for 40 and 53 Then go to Geelong who only have 8 and offer 13 and 35 (1734 pts) for 8(1551 pts) What do Geelong need points for? They don’t have academy or father/son picks to worry about. Points are irrelevant to them this year Correct - points...

or to Melb

6 for 13 and 35
And they can use that or 11 on McAdam

What if we keep him? Gresham gone and therefore one injury away from him playing much more. Even then he could attract more value in 12 months you would think. Love RL tactically however i think sometimes he gets set on what players can't do as opposed to what they can do and how that can work for t...

According to article during the week pretty good. Don't have many contracts with uplift in them so when cap goes up much will be free money not yet committed.

No way we would get that on an open market if he was to be traded.

Collingwood reportedly offering #19 for Shultz, IMO Gresham is a better player.
Shultz would be on a lot less coin.

Schultz under contract so have to pay more

My guess for delay, Essendon know we are waiting on compo to get other deals done such as Henry, Coffield and therefore hoping to make us act early and potentially get stuck. Feel it has backfired as if you believe what is said Gresham is willing to stay if low ball offer by Ess to try and stuff us....

Yeah I don’t really get it Nick Riewoldt played in 2 grand finals and a draw rematch… didn’t tear one up. Gram was a decent player but no super star… could have been a Norm Smith Medallist in 09. Plenty of players in many grand final teams that are GOP or not much more. There’s an occasional GOP th...

i thought North's 2024 concession picks were to be reviewed next year, well that can't happen now as they have already been traded!

Could Billings become a HB?

I know many years ago buy Guerra went form small forward to a very good HB.
Just asking

Freo list boss said to AFL Trade Radio that Saints and Dockers are a fair way off Liam Henry. 'Won't be happening any time soon' SOS said he gets on well with Dockers List boss and thinks we could strike a fair deal, but we'll see Its day 1 a lot of tough talking to happen . Remember this time last...
