Taylor Hunt gone too, but not announced because they want a trade.

Schroder and Burbury will find their way to a new club.

We could do alot worse than signing either of them even if it is to provide depth.

I know from the few afl games I saw schroder play, he was used as a small forward rather than inside mid which he was drafted as. Obviously it is near impossible to slot into the Geelong midfield but he could add a bit of depth to both our small forward/mid stocks.

I think many Geelong supporters hadnt seen a lot of Schroeder but were basing their expectations on him winning the Liston.

To their own peril.

If anyone ever mentions the Liston and how they believe a certain player will be a gun based on winning it, I always reply:

"Paul Johnson won a Liston trophy." The conversation doesn't go much further after that.

We gave pick 17 for Bizzell which turned out to be James Kelly.

Who's laughing now.

Bizzell was a very good player for us and a cornerstone of our strong(er) sides of the mid 00s. Clearly Geelong were better off in the long term, but it was never intended to be a long term decision. I'm pretty comfortable with it.

The bottom teams get the top teams duds and the top teams get the bottom teams champs.

That's equalization at its worst, doesn't the AFL want an equal competition?

What the afl say they want to what the afl actually delivers are two different things.

If the afl wanted equalisation the MFC would have received a priority pick. They would restrict free agents from going to top 4 sides, etc etc etc

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
