Haha. I wonder if this thread will be as wild as the other one.

Go Josh (and the team you are a mouthpiece for which would include Viney and Taylor)! I never doubted you.

I just want him to be honest with us. (Followed by an eye roll)

    Adding surety to what we get at 3 and then again with 7.

    We should bring in two potential A grade players.

    Really impressed with Tom - super competitive, great runner, midfield and down back. We think him coming in help our young group of guys.

    We have a bit of work to do on who we pick; could be tall and a mid, two midfielders.

    Fitzy - Hawthorn wanted to get the deal done, they wanted it done now so they gave us pick 94 so they could get them today instead of in the next 10 days.

    Mahoney wants to go home and not worry tomorrow but thinks he'll get some calls about the picks.

    Gotta wonder who the player we are trading pick 3 and 7 for.

    Apparently Josh "Superman" Mahoney will be on SEN in the next 15 to 20 minutes.

    I'm at dinner* so reports would be appreciated.

    * I could listen in on my iPhone but knowing she who must be obeyed the thing might end up in my soup :wub:

    Tell her you're looking up holiday destinations where you might take her.

    And if those calls are compelling, we should deal! Someone else raised it on another thread I think, but would we entertain Essendons top 2 picks for ours?

    I would if the bombers are hellbent on landing Parish

    I don't get why, we can take the best midfielder and 1 KPP (hopefully Curnow).

    It is clear that GC are looking a bit outside the box, if be thinking Milera but who knows.

    Essendon will take Francis and one other so we will still have our pick! I think

    It would appear that the footy dept achieved exactly ALL of its trading targets.

    Turns out we played the 'academy draft points' game better than any other club.

    Turns out we got all of our trade-in player targets at appropriately low cost.

    Turns out we did manage to line up pick 3 to target the player we've obviously identified long ago, despite Howe being a [censored] goblin.

    Turns out we could get ourselves a second top-10 pick (lucky 7, too!), and made sure we could pick up one of the multiple good tall forward options available.

    Overall movement;

    In - 3, 7, Kennedy, Bugg, Melksham

    Out - 6, 25, [First rounder 2016], Howe, Toumpas

    It's a nice move to trade forward a year, too. Gives the additional gun kid a year of being Roos-ed.

    Who would have thought the word "hob" would be censored.

    I don't know why he even comes out to say that. I get that it's a bargaining chip and he's just playing the game but at the same time, don't put yourself in a corner. At least say, "I would think 3 and 7 are untouchable" and then if asked if they would be traded for the right deal, "Well it would need to be a pretty special offer."

    If Sydney offered us Kennedy for pick 3 and, say, Watts + 43, we'd have to take that.

    Reckon Kennedy too old to waste pick 3 on, he's 27 with 3-4 good years left

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • 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?
