Players to target at the end of the year



Recommended Posts

our third rounder will be fairly close to their second rounder, and our second rounder close to their first.

if we luck out and have to use a third round on stretch, then our pick in the late teens / early 20s might get us morabito.

massive risk, but he has the ability.

To much risk for mine with a pick above the 3rd round. Out of contract lessens his value IMO

I think he is too big a risk all up and would have to question why he wants out after Freo have stuck by him to date.

Your obnoxious posts continue to surprise me.

Tyson was injured for more of last year. O'Rourke has not been injured and when he has gotten to senior level, he has been poor. Please do not comment or tag most posts, thanks.

You and your mates are too stupid to detect even blatant sarcasm, obviously.

However, they do seem adept at detecting a raving egotist and know it all hey Machsy.

Machsy simply must be part of Rhino's offspring.

An attack dog.

Anyone who doesn't laugh long and hard at the 12th cd's man over the years is seriously lacking in large areas.

But keep going Machsy. Or is it Ben Hur or Josè....

You may learn 2 things from this response:

First: Sarcasm is almost impossible to effectively be portrayed though text.

Second: When using sarcasm and no one understands, you look stupid and aggressive.

Please take this into consideration when on Demonland. Thank You :)

You must be pretty thick to have missed that.

There's no way Morabito would want out. As rjay said, they've stuck by him for a long time now.

Anyone know Tom Sheridan's contract status?

He has knocked back a contract extension for 1 year, he is doing very well at WAFL level and wants to play regular footy at AFL level. If he doesn't get a game by seasons end he may well opt out

I'm really loving the idea of having the compo for Chip right now. In saying that, trade one of our first picks for someone or draft two guns? (obviously if Chip goes)

Petracca and Brayshaw sound good.

Frawley compo and our second rounder - if we don't have to use it on Stretch - for O'Rourke and Plowman.

So what's going to happen if and when Frawley re-signs? Will people all of sudden think he's a champ again? Some of the thinking in this thread and the Frawley thread is ridiculous. More draft picks aren't going to help us. Surely, the past 7 years have taught us that much.

Not exactly sure about that.

Not certain Frawley will definitely re-up, and more draft picks may help if used correctly.

But it's not the only way.

You do understand that development, environment, coaching and the recruiters a club possesses determines greatly the talent you bring to your club and the way that talent develops?

And you do understand that we have a COMPLETELY different football department of coaches and recruiters as well as an improved environment for young players to develop in?

Meaning the past 7 years counts for absolutely nothing.

As for Frawley, if he resigns, all I hope is that we see a player who's actions on-field indicate he wants to do everything he can to help this club improve and not just 'go through the motions' ala Sylvia... Because that will do nothing for us and I'd rather take the chance of landing a beauty who could help win this clubs next flag.

Kick's can be fixed, you reckon?

Some. Nate Jones for example was an inaccurate kick but his fundamental action was sound. Now he's pretty good. Don't think Green's one of them that you can fix. Happy to defer to our resident kicking afficianado Clint Bizket for his analysis.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
