Forget the PP.

The bottom four clubs need a salary cap increase x 10% so they have the cash to buy players.

i agree the PP is dead...sort of lives in disguise as favours come FA compo.

I like the idea of bottom four getting 2 picks as above. Maybe together with a top up capping as per pigdog you might have a real chance

    Bump

    It is likely that we may not win more then 4 games again.

    I hope submitting an application is highly considered if this is the case...

    Yet you laud Hogan who we got from our last PP basically.

    We need more talent, it was obvious today in the amount of changers and turnovers we were making that our team just doesn't have the talent needed yet.

    We got a compensation pick from Scully leaving.

    You wan't a hand out from the AFL from losing..

    Two completely different situations.

    Two completely different situations.

    And Scully was from a PP. So without that PP we wouldn't have had the compo for Hogan.

    And yes right now I'm happy to take what we can get to ocl our team with talent.

    There is less pride in being bottom of the ladder for 10 years then their is in applying for a PP. Hell we applied last 2 years so ruling it now this year would be naive

    If PJ doesn't send in the letter applying for one, i'll happily draft it for him, olisik right, this team needs as much talent as it can possibly get. Still far too many NQRs

    I don't think anyone is saying we're set for talent. We're just not stupid enough to believe we'll get a PP. Not to mention we'll win more than 5 games...

    We are not as bad as our wins make us look.

    With Kent, Petracca, Frost, JKH, Salem, Trengrove and Garland back and playing well our team looks a lot better. I am assuming that Petracca is at least the equal of Brayshaw.

    With improvement in Toumpas, Dyson ( who is not playing well ATM ) Stretch, ANB, Watts, Viney, Gawn, King, Harmes and White and then further trades and draftees coming in next year, we have the makings of a fair side.

    I think the PP is dead and we have to do it by smart decisions and good development of our young players, from now on.

    It can be done.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
