i wouldn't laugh dan, but he seems surplus to our requirements.. i reckon we have other priorities anyway. but if he's going cheap, why not?

I think you answered your own question in the first half of your sentence. Even if a player is "going cheap" they still take a spot on the list and consume some salary cap. 

 

So it's a best 22 line up you want hey?

COLIN B. FLAUBERT'S ALL TIME GREATEST STARTING 22:

FB: John West Salmon

HB: Howe Watts Wenn*

C Love Yeo Darling

HF: Mann Leays Hogg

FF: Smart Lyon King

R: Gawn Long Miles

I/C Dick Hird

      Ware Wolf

* Stuart Wenn  is an umpire but it just seemed right including him here.

Nice work. I'm not going to prepare a full team, but I know that my half-back line is going to be Christian Battle Lyon.

And I didn't even get around to including  my emergencies.

who would you rather have on the list la dee? darcy moore or jkh? or, let's just say, a mature-aged recruit from brissie or something? surely, if moore only cost a late rounder or something, we'd bite.

You said that you would put a player who is surplus to requirements on the list if they came cheaply. I just think that statement is internally contradictory. If they're surplus to requirements you are wasting the limited number of slots allowable on a list for a player who, by your own definition, shouldn't be on the list. I'd rather take an unknown in the draft and see if they develop into someone who is useful.

Or the old half back line Newport Rohde Ireland

 

Carey Laid Stevens?

Wow. By eliminating use of the upper case and now whole words, you've really minimised the amount of effort you need to produce your posts.

Get a few of those from Trevor Marmalade's All-Star team from the early 90's, Colin?

Well spotted.

The HF line was too good to leave out.

I would have thought Carey Lade Kelly might give you a bit more bang for your buck.


For the coming draft, Melbourne has -

* no picks in the first round;

* one second round pick;

* two third round picks; and

* no picks in the fourth round.

We need to trade to get into the first round.

I think that’s going to happen.

Well,  we are going to be busy in the off-season,  aren't we?

Not sure anyone was predicting so many changes to the primary list ... and being a major player in the first round of the draft is suddenly on the radar.

Thankfully,  It looks like we won't lose any more than 1 of our top players so we could describe the changes as a major rebuild of our depth with hopefully a few diamonds in the rough emerging.

Yes it would seem Jason Taylor and co have been very busy for some time now. I thought maybe one or two gone such as Tyson and Garlett? Now with in a week we could see Jesse gone as well as Vanders on the move. Also moving up the draft into the first round. 

Looking forward to see what happens.


Do we need this thread with all of the others on the same subject.

  • 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.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
