AVB still injured, or just not able to get fully fit? 

It’s a secret Mr. Leg.

When the supply of bananas is in doubt it is every Demon for themselves.

No wonder we have not one a flag for 56 years.

You are not alone. 

I go back to when Saad left GC and I pushed hard to get him and we were uninterested. While not a perfect defender, his run off the back flank, especially with the new manning the Mark rule, makes him a very valuable player in setting up scoring opportunities.

We have a 100 year plan for our 13th flag. It appears we are on track to achieve this.

Wait for our next rebuild Red, we should not rush our 100 year plan. They will never seen us coming for our 13th flag!

Was speaking to Whispering Jack the last few weeks and he was suggesting we look at Kaine Baldwin a very good player before 2 ACL's curtailed him. I then looked him up and got quite excited and was quietly hoping we would take him with one of our free Rookie spots. He has just been listed by Essendon, which has several new key position players taken and traded recently.

We will see, but I fear he will be a better prospect than Daw and Declase or Farmer and Smith.

Not a lot to beat there Mr. Leg. 10 decent games will see him at the top of the list.

Disappointed that we didn't grab Baldwin.  Could be a gun if he eats enough bananas in the preseason.

Essendon seem to be going for a lot of high-risk high-reward types and plenty of low-possession high-impact types.

Anyone else quietly hoping that they finally do the full house of cards collapse that has been waiting to happen for years?

All they need now is for Hurley's illness to be found to be related to a certain program of medically unsound... hmm... out of respect to Demonland, I won't even use full sentences in case some clutz (looking at you, Jon Ralph, yeah, we all see you there.) is trawling supporter forums for rumours to present as scoops.

I think if we had a complete clean sheet with injuries, it might have been worth considering Baldwin as a medium to long term development player for Ben Brown to mentor over the next couple of seasons. However, with two acl’s and Brown and Weideman likely to miss 4 to 6 rounds, I think we have to go a little conservative with list vacancies. It wouldn’t surprise if we went for only one of Daw or Declase - we’ll know in less than48 hours.

So we should be ready to go at 2024 AFL season?

Win lose whatever today, just please no injuries.

So who is going to the game this weekend (you know, that thing we do when we are not obsessing about bananas ... ??)

It is hard to plan these things became of border closures. Our leader is very protective and antivirus.
