Dempster, Roo, Armo

18 clubs, 23 rounds.

If you get one nom you're doing ok, if you get two your doing well. We have been behind the eight ball for a while due to having an aging list, poor drafts and compromised drafts.

Delist:
Markworth
Ray
Murdoch
Simpkin
Saunders
Minchington
Saad

Retire:
Schneider
Fisher

Promote:
Holmes
Sinclair

Draft as many players who can kick as possible.

Terrible effort, Sydney outplaying us on every line. Sydney have our defensive pressed figured out and they've put up a defensive wall which we simply don't have the foothills to get through.

Holmes has been very good in the ruck but Pyke is killing him around the ground.

Our ball use into the 50 is our biggest issue, some of our entries were bouncing 15 metres in front of the target.

We have been woeful in the forward third today, so wasteful, Sydney are making every rebound a 12 point play.

Do you post about anything else?

Good to see Schneider get on the board, it was confirmed that this is his last match yeah?

On the road, first quarter will likely be finished by the time I reach a TV... Hoping we can be competitive today, with the side we've chosen we don't have a lot of excuses.

Steven can not be traded. He is already an a grader on the verge of being elite. Give him some more support and he can take the next step.

He's going well. 67 games is a few but he has played most of those in a very ordinary side. I expect by the time he gets to 150 games he will be a strong b-a grade player. I think he will play his best footy rotating betweenies the backline and centre. At the moment I feel he is spending too much ti...

Rory Thompson, can we make a play for him?

He is all class but wouldn't come cheap. Is there anything we could add to our second round pick for him?

From all reports, Pierce did well today, after finally getting a shot at rucking solo at Sandy... Pierce is still only 20. It seems to me that he is developing nicely. He seems to also be filling out. If the club believe Pierce is on track to be good, and in particular if he looks set to be a capab...

Goddard has certainly showed the most of the 2014 class so far from what I've seen but McCartin has a far harder position.

Autism is okay with me. I'm not sure if you're joking or not but the thought did cross my mind although he didn't seem to display the characteristics you'd usually expect to see (going purely by stereotypes as I haven't had much exposure to any autists myself). If there were no cognitive issues thi...

The AFL is corrupt but it hasn't gotten so bad that umpires are making decisions based on financial incentives. I don't watch enough of the other clubs to know how our run compares with them and to be honest even if I did I wouldn't have the impartiality to make any unbiased assessment, but I would ...

The other thing we need to factor in is that if we actually draft/trade in quality midfielders, the defiencies in Luke's games won't be so marked. A players like Hayes or Dal to a lesser degree were never overly quick but having faster players in the team drew away from that flaw and allowed them t...

He is absolute class, applies so much pressure for a bloke his size and build.

McCartin, Bruce, Hickey and Membrey are the reasons that Roo should finish his career on the wing.

This group is coming along fantastically well. They are already playing at a top 6 team for two to three quarters a game. If we can start making the most out of those periods which we have the momentum we will start really hurting teams How many games have we been blown out of the water this year's ...

Positives: - Hickey is really starting to show his ability to play that forward / second ruck role. - Ross played a great role tonight. Seems to do well against other slower mids in Watson and Selwood, says he must have something worth working with. Hope to see him get the match up against JPK. - Du...

I have been a detractor in recent years but he was great tonight IMO. The issue for him is however that he is playing a position which he seem to have a lot of good options. If we could get a top 30 pick for him I would very much consider it. I don't think we would so going forward I think we play h...

Very impressive debut, if he was 21 we would be losing our minds with excitement but even at 25 we would take that, very handy back up for Longer and Hickey. Hope we take the same combo into the last couple games.

Papa Saynta please tell us more about all the money you have.

I know you don't like to make these things public, but please we all want to hear about how rich you are.

I don't get the logic with the ruck issue on this site. We have three rucks in contention for the senior team. One is already a quality traditional ruckman, the other is a lesser ruck but can play a bit up front. The third is a 25 year old who was introduced to the sport by an Adam Sandler movie and...

Looking at this site for a while and i cant stand plugger 66. He has a smart arse reply on every post, at last some body who has shown he is just a pain who has to have the last say on every post.He has made me stop reading the posts on this site many times.
