I would never delist Bugg - he's exactly what we need. And I'd never trade Watts. Vince is still very handy. 

 

 

How do we need a spud that's only a thug? Watts has run out chances he must be put on the table. Vince should retire.

    One last time. Watts. Is. Contracted.

    Trade can only happen if he wants it to happen. So he 'cant be put on the table'.

    The only leverage the club has is threatening to play him in the vfl. This might work with say spencer who is likely to play vfl anyway and might want more opportunity. But with a player of watts' talent it is a bit cutting off your nose to spite your faceish.

    A player on the other hand - if contracted and wanting out - can threaten not to try. Which no club wants.

    Papers stamped.

    Liam Hulett: He had four disposals, four tackles and two inside 50s. Liam didn’t have any impact on the game and went missing for long periods. He didn’t give us a real threat forward of the ball, so it was a disappointing performance from Liam.

    I think they were stamped long before this game.  They even tried him down back and that didn't work either.

    Moonie, coming from Man sfield  my 1st choice for a name on DLand was DeeMan obviously,  unfortunately it was taken. So without really thinking I tried ManDee, it was available so that will do. Now I have Barry Manilow nightmares, yes more than before. Thanks for reminding me. At least "I came and I gave without taking"

    PS: I will not kiss you and stop you from shaking.

    You can trade a player that's under contract as long as it's not the first year of his contract like JKH, Stretch and Frost can't be traded.

    If all parties agree, surely a trade can happen in first year of contract, otherwise it's restraint of trade, eg.Boyd to WB

    After today, Trengove and Spencer are gone. Spencer showed nothing. Rather persist with King and bring in Meese as Gawns backup. 

    king did nothing either, looks like Pederson will continue to be our second Rickman for a few more years

    If he had to play 20 games next season then I'd agree.  But if he ends up just being a handy depth player, filling a few gaps throughout the season when needed, then we might be able to squeeze an extra year out of him.  He hasn't played as much footy to this point as others have, so he has a little more mileage left in the legs.

    Pedo will play most games next year if fit, especially if Spencil leaves. Weid will need to come on suddenly for Pedo to be usurped. Still, stranger things have happened.

    If we get Lever that should allow T.McDonald to go forward we probably won't need Pedersen.

    Pretty harsh comment on Pedo. 

    He has a had a great year! Showed alot of ticker! He gives a consistent contest and holds his own. Would be a coaches favourite. He is only 30 and durable. Great work ethic and versatile!

    Pedo is my first picked at the selection table. You know what you are going to get from him.

    Just like Daniel Ward and Nathan 'Doggy' Brown when they were playing...

    Watching todays game I was impressed with Stretch's game. He has developed his inside game well over the second half of the year at VFL level. He can still make it. JKH and Spencer were woeful unfortunately. I will be surprised if JKH gets another senior game. Magner has had a good year too and if he keeps developing as he should will get his chance next year. Bugg can still offer something but will probably only ever be about top 26, not top 22. Still you need a top 33 to have genuine depth.

    I was surprised by Richmonds depth. It's always hard to beat a VFL side that is still alive in the AFL as all the seconds players still hold hope to get a game in the seniors.

    They had Conca, Lloyd, Griffiths, Miles and a couple of others. That Morris is a dog. His only skill is smashing into blokes trying to injure them. Sheedy would recall him to his Grand Final side just to go head-hunting.

    Maybe, but unless I'm mistaken, he's signed for another year.

    If you look back you'll see that I've been a big fan of Pedo on here. Got into many a stoush with stuie defending the big fella. 

    Cam will be 31 when the 2018 season starts. I'd love him to play for 5 more years, but I don't think longevity is his bag. That was my point.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • 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.
