saad goes for 2018 second rounder - great get for the peptides alongside smith and (potentially) stringer

Seems a pretty good get, if the bombers stay in the same position as this year that's only pick 28 for Saad.

Goes back to the point of draft picks being over-rated due to the uncertainty. Would the odds only be 50/50 that pick 28 would end up being a regular 22 player?

Is Kyle Langford worth a look? haven't seen much of EFC but showed a bit when I have.

Maybe opportunity drying up a bit with the influx of new players.

His brother got delisted from GC. Saints gave him a life-line. Big difference.

You'd think the family would still be dirty on the Suns but they've been through a few different staff members since that was done.

What's interesting is the Weller's came from Tasmania and Lachie was never eligible as a GC academy player, then the family moved to Melbourne when Mav moved to the Saints. So there's not really a strong go home factor. 

I think Lachie is saying move me to where I've got some high school mates - and give me a handsome pay rise to make it happen.

tassie high schoolers emigrate en-masse to the gold coast?

The AFL article mentions his girlfriend as a factor. Given that he’s only 21 and making career decisions around a girlfriend it may we’ll be that he’s a lunatic.

right, so west coast are (allegedly, according to kim hagdorn) looking to ship pick 13 out for two picks in the 20-30 range

pick 27 and 30 (for watts) for 13?

Been waiting for something like this.

Richmond will do the same kind of thing too.

They'd say anything to move to their club of choice, Don't read too much into it.

Would be smart to consider it, of course we have no idea who the club thinks they can pick up with the picks we already have.

Might be a way to delay the "must use a round 1 pick every x years" thing if the AFL actually decide to enforce it, and would then bring up the possibility of forward trading our 2019 first round pick next year.

Good idea in theory. If highly placed clubs are considering it, shouldn't that be telling us something about the supposedly shallow draft this year? Might be deeper than we keep getting told.

Kim trying to stay relevant.  This was mention this morning on SEN as a way Essendon can get a first round pick for the Bulldogs.  The point was West Coast need to inject youth If West Coast trade first Round pick their List Management team should be sacked.  Brisbane and Gold Coast that have academy picks are the clubs you target.

They might be after an additional pick to help with the Ah Chee trade, wouldn't be surprised if they were looking at getting Essendon's picks in the 20's to facilitate Stringer trade. Happy for us to jump in and trade our second rounders for pick 13, might get a decent outside mid with that pick.

I heard that Richmond knocked back an offer from Essendon for one of their first round picks.


Not a rumour, just a thought, but if West Coast happy to trade two 2nd round picks for pick 13, would this work:

Melbourne: Out Watts, 29 & 36 - In Pick 13 & 49

Port: Out Ah Chee, Pick 31, pick 49 - In Watts and Pick 36

West Coast: Out: Pick 13 - In Ah Chee, Pick 29 & Pick 31

I think West Coast loses out in that trade. Ah Chee is basically nothing so I wouldn't trade 29 and 31 for 13.

Can't be that exciting or they would've said before the break?

The length of this add break suggests it isn't breaking news...

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • 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.
