    Interesting statement by Gold Coast to give GAJ another b&f just when they know he'll want a trade back to the Cattery. Only played 14 games, one was a stinker and a number of others under injury. Crap year for the club and he did play some blinders, but seriously??? Trying to push up his trade value for sure.

    Give him a b&f? I assume they vote after every game not at the end of the sason.

    And given he won having only played 14 games im guessing they use a variation on 3,2,1 model as opposed to ourw where every player gets a score betweem 0 and 10 by 3 match committe reps. So, hard to rig

    You do realise they physically give the b&f award to the winner on the night?

    Still... awarded by the Suns internally. Senior coach for most of the year no longer there. Voted by the coaches who knew throughout the season he wanted out. And with a poorly performing list in need of best new talent. Said himself it was a surprise. Begs the question.

    I don't think you have to push God's son trade value up that ridiculous, another b&f won't do anything, they are crap that even a half good game from him is better then anyone else.

    Maybe I'm not the only one thinking like this. As I said, it begs the question.

    How much is Gary Ablett worth?       

    "Yet maybe the strongest comment his victory made was about neither Ablett nor his teammates. Maybe the strongest comment was a statement from the Suns to the rest of the competition about their star player"

    B&F win a blow to Geelong's recruitment hopes

    "GARY Ablett has given Gold Coast further reason to dig its heels against attempts by the Cats to lure him back to Geelong by claiming his fourth club champion award. Ablett underlined his pure class and sunk Geelong’s hopes of getting him on the cheap by claiming the award"

    I heard the rumour about Gaff a few months ago from a doctor who knows the Gaff family well. He is apparently super keen to return home and to play at the Dees.

    Any updates Janey?   :pj::goody::mahoney:

    Not as yet but I will be seeing the doctor concerned on Friday. He's always loves a chat about the Dee's. Most of the other staff are Collingwood supporters so I think he has a soft spot for me. He also not an old gossip either so I trust what he says.

    If I hear anything further - I will definitely post it here.

    I know the Doctor you're talking about, he's a good friend.  He'd be mortified if he knew that what he was saying to you was being plastered all over Demonland.

    Gee Jane, I would be a bit more protective of your sources, just in case the Doc gets a bit upset about breaking confidences. Although I'm sure we on Demonland will excuse you.

    Really? Hardly earth shattering info and not in any way health related. Would be a bit rich for him/her to be worried about a rabid dees fan sharing the info if she/he was ok with sharing the info in the first place.

    But as the learned hemmingway suggests always a good idea to protect your sources.

    And then get pilloried for spreading rumours without any substantiating evidence.

    If you are telling a "family friend" that you want to leave your club and play for another club  - well, I believe that the player might be the one at fault not the family friend who can't keep his mouth shut ?

    How many "friends of Hogan" were quoted on here telling us he was leaving ? 

    Take all this stuff with a grain of salt. 

     

    (I have been reliably informed that Tom Scully will stay at the Dees)

    Mason Cox is going to Brisbane.
    Stef Martin is going to the Dogs.
    McVeigh is likely going to Carlton to play for a year and then coach.
    Dusty to North looking likely.

    Only thing looking likely going North is his paypacket at the Tigers.  Norf on the other hand now have to look elsewhere with their war chest.

    • 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.
