Who should we pick up?

Featured Replies

So with that would not mind

Otten, Knights, Jacobs, Toumpas, O'Rourke or Hogan MD, Membrey, Viney, Tom Lee and add another high profile recruit

No Stringer?

 

All these below are options and we can't or wont take them all but consideration for me is on good ball users, some talls and players with decent size no more skinny kids after seeing Sydney, Adelaide, Pies, Hawks and others show the advantages when it counts in finals

Andy Otten was very good for Adelaide yesterday ball use was what we need and targetting him is what Swans do by targetting a payer that is on the fringe but has good quality

Chris Knights another Crow I like who has proven himself at AFL level

Gumbleton - Bombers have to many talls and now they found the bone spurr as the cause of his back problems he has put games together

Ben Jacobs - shown some good signs in his time at Port and if he wants to go back to Victoria good option

Caddy - shown glimpses and has by all accounts a few clubs chasing him but what is he worth

Draft

Mids with potential body size and tanks Viney, Toumpas, O'Rourke, Wines

Forwards - MD trade one of our picks to get Hogan but if not Mason Shaw good young kid fro South Fremantle good size and can take a grab, kicked 5 today in Colts GF and continually ran to present leads,

Small Forwards - Dayle Garlett is highly spoken of but would not use a first round pick on him, have not seen Ben Kennedy or Tim Membrey but he will move up the order after today

Recycled Players

Tom Lee - good thrid tall option up forward, Mark Hutchings - finished 2nd to Kane Mitchell in the Sandover medal but uses the ball better

So with that would not mind

Good post mate. I'd Add Luke Blackwell to that list

What about Wellingham?? he is a gun and a proven one, we can get him

Wellingham is not a gun, he is a decent player in a midfield surrounded by stars, put him in an average midfield and he becomes Chris Heffernan, Des Headland and Brent Prismall

No Stringer?

Wouldn't use pick 3 or 4 and not sure he'll be there at 13 so would not be against taking him if he is best available


Good post mate. I'd Add Luke Blackwell to that list

Had a great game today when the Sharks made their charge in the third and Mitchell went quite while Griffen had the ball on a string it was Blackwell who stood up went in for the hard ball and stemmed the run to help the Tigers consolidate

In your opinion...

disagree, when Melbourne has played Collingwood in the past when they didnt have Daisy Thomas and Dane Swan, he picked up something like 39 possies.

He would still be in Melbournes best players

 

IMO either Cloke, Tippett or Goddard at least one of is essential for the mighty Dees. If Neeld can't coax any of the three then we need the NBT. While Cloke didn't seem to have a massive year I feel his best is still ahead of him. The more Gun forwards, i.e., Clarke etc the more the mids will lift. Goddard would be a great general across the backs.

Could create exactly the same argument for the contrary re: Wellingham. First insticts are to go to Swann, Pendel, Beams. Without these guys Wellers may well stand up. He's be good for Melbourne.


If we can manage to get another 2nd round pick, I would love to pick up Anthony Tipungwuti as a small forward option.

Has speed, skill and goal sense and isn't rake thin. He reminds me a lot of Wonaeamirri.

Agree he is exactly what we need in a small forward. Screams Wonna imo, but seems more a 3rd rounder or a bit later. high second round picks around 30 will still be gold.

we havn't been in the media for a week.

Be interesting to see what the MFC is doing, they must have some action happening that the media can't spot

I watch Tipungwuti on Sunday at Etihad and boy is he another Byron Pickett. Kicks both feet, has pace, and is very crafty. I like him and would make a play for him at late 2 round using Moloney's compensation pick (assuming Moloney compensation is late 2nd round)

He is also a bit of a utility and can play half back flank, small forward or spurts on the ball. He has got the potential and lives in Melbourne so homesickness surely wouldn't be an issue you would hope. I love him already!

yeah, he looks better than Aussie and hopefully more reliable for Melbourne to stay onthe list

love to get cloke. also tippett. hayes is a little old now. Tipungwuti would be more than good any comment? Losing L Jurrah is a major blow. He'll be amazing for Pad if they get him.

I would personally like Tippett more than Cloke, which is quite funny because at the start of the year i would have said Cloke any day.

Hayes is way too old, we arent going for a premiership in the next 2 years, id imagine finals is more realistic objective to get to.

Hayes just isnt a good enough investment.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
