Pretty soft effort by Fremantle, just gave in at the end of the day. They've been massively ripped off.

Great thinking. They should have played tough and let Warnock go through to the PSD....and they would have got nothing.

Brilliant.

I might just go cry in to pick #1.

Seriously, could you guys be any more melodramatic? I don't get why it's such a big deal that we didn't pick up a couple of B grade players (if they were 'A' grade they wouldn't be 'seeking opportunities elsewhere'). I think 'no result' isn't a terrible thing for us by any means.

I am disappointed that there wasn't any takers for a couple of the hacks that were inquired about like CJ though.

A ray of common sense in a very ordinary thread.

Are you kidding? Carlton gave up pick 24 and pick 52 for a largely speculative ruckman.

Fremantle, who had no choice but to let him go, get pick 24 and pick 52 (the other two picks were just swapping in the 6th round).

Fremantle is the winner here.

This won't leave the Blues with many picks in this draft.

I suppose they've finally stopped trying to bottom out...

Huh, yeah. They 'll go strait from the bottom, (courtesy of the free AFL get out of jail card), strait to the top 4 by 2010, if not earlier. <_<

Haha. You should try being a Freo supporter. Then you'll really see what it's like to suck at recruiting/trading. :(

Yeah, good work taking Solly back too. You must be happy about that. :o

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
