Tyson has potential to be better than Kennedy, we could have Tyson for longer than we could possibly have had Kennedy due to their respective ages. We havnt lost out any where

The article says the bummers interest has waned, and there are 2 other clubs interested. Could be us

my first thought was Stkilda.. only a thought though :)

Why is that? Kennedy, Tyson and Jones would form an elite clearance machine…if this happened, I would put money on Melbourne giving the 8 a run.

Daydreaming, the closest we ever get to the finals.

Because IMO we would be unlikely to get him with pick 9.

I can't find the confirmation?

I found the media saying he's been offered contract & was expected to sign. but found no confirmation of signed deal done yet?

played really well this year. Can't see him becoming a star but would be happy t0 trade him while his currency is pretty high (for potential) would like another key back or mid in exchange Edited by Daz's Dee's

Although as I have said elsewhere I will be shocked if we go into next year with Jamar, Gawn, Fitzpatrick, Spencer on our list...so one still to go?

Jamar is 30 and his body is in decline so i think he would be most suited to a trade

Spencer 24 the prototype angry ruckman and has a good motor can dominate at vfl level, his main weakness is his kicking

Gawn 21 can dominant vfl ruckman and could be a monster in 3-4 years if his knees hold up

Fitzy 22 not a true ruckman better suited up forward elite speed for his size he has a lot of potential to improve

Not a rumor, but seeing as the Saints have picks 18 and 19 as well as 25, would it be logical for port to try and get them involved in the deal for polec? trading 14 and 34 for 19 and 25? Port send 19 to Brisbane for Polec and are left with 25. Saints move up to 14 and grab one of the more fancied draftees (Crouch, Taylor) Brisbane get a pick they're after, being around the top of the draft.

hit & miss. If I were rebuilding a list from a low base, I would prefer to have more picks in the top 25, than less, or even one... laws of averages.

Contracts aren't an impediment to trading if all parties are agreable. Just mentioning

Yes but would find it difficult to see them trading out a player they only just signed for 4 years! And depending on who you believe, the Buddy deal was done last year, right?

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
