Assuming we gain a priority pick and we have picks 2 and 3 do we put 1 pick on the table for a gun afl midfielder like Dale Thomas or do we put both pcks on the table since we are in desperate need of 2 gun AFL mids???

Fall on the floor laughing until I have to be carted off to hospital.

If we get a pick there's no moral way it can be at the top of the first round. I'll take it if they're offering but the other clubs should hold a protest rally if we get a pick anywhere before #19 or #20.


If we get a PP we will need to batten down the hatches and the recruiters will have the biggest amount of stress on them and massive targets on them if they get it wrong.

The word is Piority....that means we go before !!. But I can see where the question is before what.?

In a dream world itr would be before round 1...so we might well end up with 1/2 or 1/3

but we might be run out of town for that combo. therefore 19 seems a political compromise.

But then again, it is the AFL and they make it up as they go along...so wtf knows ...lol

again..just say thankyou for its a freebie..a bone for the dog.....woof !!

Good point. This is why I think assistance will be in the form of mini draft or some other help. I'm not sure pick 19 will help us get anyone who will impact (although it may allow us to trade pick 2 for such a player and still draft a good young prospect).

anyone else think we will finish dead last ?

the logicist in me thins that here we have the AFL in its usual place de norm....sh!t-central.

In order do deliver to its problem child whilst placating the rabble it must deliver a solution that provides whilst seemingly within precedents.

A mini draft fulfills all of this. It provides an opportunity for us and at the same time ought to really disadvantages no one...not toooo much,not if you allow for "things"

I hope the powers that be, that is OURS, realise this is the closet thing to a last dip for salvation that will ever come our way. [censored] this up, and we might as well all wander off.

yep... the caveat being if Neeld is still at the helm when we meet the giants..we lose that we're bottom

anyone else think we will finish dead last ?

By the tone of the thread I think most of us think we will...

I don't think we'll get a PP but if we do I think it will be at the middle to end of the first round, I don't really care about time we stopped worrying about picks to get us out of our problems


I'm a big believer in trade them if the right offer is there. Patty D or 2 of the GC boys

If we actually in some way managed to pick up Patty Dangerfield in a trade I would wet my pants with excitement.

In regards to the priority pick, I agree with Supermercado - there is no way we'd deserve a pick in the first round and the other clubs would (fairly) spit chips.

We're not getting Danger, we should get Adams if the price is reasonable.

Of course not, is he even out of contract? Adams we should definitely have a crack at.

James Aish should be one.... Then trade the other....


If we get a pick at the start of the first round trade it to the dogs for Ryan Griffin. They need a forward for the future and Griffin is better than Thomas. They could then get Thomas boyd who we probably won't need with hogan on the list next season.

Not even worth contemplating. We will not get any player in the next 2-3 years of this quality in a trade.

 

Pray we don't stuff it up again!

Trade Kennett to Collingwood for Eddie McGuire, he is out of contract.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

    Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • 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.
