Really? He's the flakiest of the lot.

I wouldn't burn a top 20 pick on him.

Think Barry Brooks, John Meesen, Matt Leuenberger, Ayce Cordy... even bloody Kreuzer is a disappointment.

You don't take rucks with early picks unless you can't miss.

And he has barely shown flashes.

As a forward, he's far from convincing, but I think ruck will be his position.

A bit hard on Leuenberger, probably the best of that lot but injury prone.

...but I agree with you on Wright. Looks to be a ruckman and the only reason he will go as a high pick is some desperate sides needing KPP's.

Exactly my thoughts on Berger, but that would make him not worth the pick, wouldn't it?

If Wright is similarly fragile I'd err on the side of caution.

I would err on the side of caution, I think some desperate clubs may not.


4 and 5 for Danger is a bit rich. I love him but the idea is that Top 5 talent brings stars and giving away two for one player is the opposite of that.

Trading in a proven AFL PROVEN superstar vs 2 POTENTIAL superstars.

People over-rate picks. I'd trade 4+5 in a heartbeat for an AFL proven superstar. Anyone who wouldn't hasn't learnt anything from the past 7-8 years. We've had more top draft picks than any club (bar expansion clubs) and still haven't landed a superstar. Just because a player is picked early doesn't guarantee he will be a star. Look at the previous #1 picks; Gibbs, Kreuzer, Watts, Scully, Swallow, Patton. None are stars, in fact none are anything better than B grade at this stage. If the draft were done again today, none of them would be taken top 5. It's luck of the draw, and if you have the opportunity to trade in a superstar, you do it.

10 posts in a row, dee-luded. Wow. I'm impressed - or concerned, not sure which.

I've merged them all in to one mega-post, for everyone's enjoyment.

Agree with the first bit.

Basically we need players to replace the 22 that consistently has played this year. Whether they're on our list and just injured (Trengove,Toumpas, Hogan), they still need to be replaced and become back up

Terlich: HB flanker

Bail: HF, Fpocket

Mckenzie: Midfielder

Gawn: Forward (he just doesnt cut it at this stage to be playing AFL)

Matt Jones is questionable

My son suggested this last night! Food for thought.

Trade up to trade in so

package WATTS and GRIMES to Richmond for RIEWOLDT!

ah yep I would do it in a heartbeat!

I didn't watch or isten to the game yesterday, thought it was today, sick pet on my mind

Maybe you need a rest from the Dees for a week or 2?

agreed JVFP, we need to keep churning to improve/replace our list from 18th player down. & those who are 28Yrs plus. Keep the older who are the good leaders, recruit RO'K....

& keep looking @ free agents & trades/draft is all we can do.

Possibly one of the worst serious suggestions I've seen on this forum.

First the Vickery suggestion now Riewoldt... Give it a break FFS. Riewoldt only shines because all the other Tigers forwards are duds. Grimes is Melbourne through and through, no he's not the most talented player but his leadership is undeniable, he's not the captain for no reason. He's also still young, he can and will improve as time goes on.

And again what the f is the big problem with Watts? Day in day out I hear our own supporters bagging him when there are others at fault and just him, and he is not even the worst on field. Give him a f'k'n rest.

Possibly one of the worst serious suggestions I've seen on this forum.

Ok so we all want to keep a turnover merchant and an indifferent player and not investigate what it would take, to get hold of a bloke who can ( CAN) take a game by the throat! a match winner no less have I got that correct?

Now let me see exactly how many of these have we got right now?????

Or is it because you guys don't rate Reiwoldt? Is that right?

Ok then so if someone like ah Petrie or another key forward ( insert name........................................) was interested in coming across we would say no to a deal like this? have I got that right?

Coz if that is the case then we may as well not investigate any potential contracted player swaps because we are ah too unwilling to roll a dice?

is that right? Too precious, too comfortable ah and two more, too predictable and complacent to try.

Ah I think I get it!!

And if unwilling to trade these two are there other ah, too valuable players we would not trade out??

I think as Sydney have proved you have to be totally bold and totally ruthless to build success, to bad not enough on this site want it enough!

ah, I get it even more now!

Edited by picket fence

Essendon wouldn't want anything less than a 1st round pick.

Essendon should take three late draft picks for him. They'll need as many players as they can get their grubby hands on to field a team next year.

Riewoldt is a spud, he only shines because he plays for a very average f'k'n team.


If Jack rewoldt came to Melbourne I would stop supporting for the time he was with us, absolutely hate him

No you wouldn't, i bet you'd embrace and learn to love him.

In what position are we to say no to a 2 time Coleman medalist?

I'd take him in a heartbeat. And yes, i do believe he needs an attitude shift, which we would need to implement.

Riewoldt is a spud, he only shines because he plays for a very average f'k'n team.

Yeah, two time "Coleman Medalist" in a very average f'k'n team

And we are......................................................................................???

 

Would only bother with ROK if he's a delisted free agent.

exactly... I expect the swans to delist him, or force him to retire; as they have so many kids coming thru that want games.

they may retire him with a 1Yr pension. But I doubt it.

  • 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

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    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.
