Would love for us or another club to make a decent bid for the next Silvagni son this year. Force their hand so as to not get him cheaply

If the next Silvagni son is on a par with the current one heโ€™d be worth roughly pick 88 in the rookie draft. Absolute spud Jack Silvagni.

The definition of being on a list because of who his father was. Only in this instance, if I remember rightly, his father recruited him as well.

It was meant to be traded.

It's kind of the Clayton's second round pick. The priority given to the recipient clubs did not upset the other clubs with their various draft picks including for that matter the MFC.

Don't think that's right Jim. ย Gold Coast have selected a couple of state league players already I think.

As Saber and Cards said above, the deal with Geelong makes no sense at all, and is just plain stupid.

It makes sense to Geelong if they had to use a higher pick than 43 to draft Nathan Kreuger, a 19yo, tall swingman playing in the SANFL.ย  Highly likely Crows or Port had their sights on him with a higher pick.ย ย 

To me this is against the spirit of the concessions:ย  for GCS and Carlton to top up with experienced players before other clubs can draft them.ย  GCS is doing just that.ย  Carlton is cashing in the players for picks.ย  The beneficiary in this case is Geelong who get a player on the cheap before anyone else gets a chance.

Wouldn't an intelligent list manager have started a bidding war for the concession pick, considering many clubs would've had their sights set on hidden gems? Create paranoia and play clubs against clubs, wait until someone blinks and offers overs.

Oh, nope. We'll just settle for some shitty pick in the 50s on day 1 from the first club that asks. Nevermind all that.ย ?

Every club had the chance to do the deal, Cats probably were front and center.

Carltonโ€™s list build has been woeful.ย 

Disagree it's built around a spine and will take longer than ours. The main pieces are there and from 2020 they will be where we were last year

Kreuger is likely to be able to play too.ย  Geelong's recent record with this type is excellent - Tim Kelly and Stewart.

If Carlton use the pick on say Setterfield then it looks closer to the AFL intent.

With Setterfield nominating Carlton as his club of choice, what do people think about them potentially giving up Pick 1 for Shiel and Setterfield.ย  Too much?ย  I think that's a fair deal - I know Pick 1 is a big deal, but Setterfield was the fifth pick just a few years back and Shiel is still a very, very good player who will slot in very well alongside Cripps.

If we had Pick 1 would you do that deal, or try and pull something else off and hope it's enough so you could still take Pick 1 to the draft?

I think itโ€™s probably a bit much, maybe another sweetener added to that and itโ€™s a good deal.ย 

I just canโ€™t see Carlton moving pick 1 unless itโ€™s for an insane deal.ย 

I suspect they will try next years firstย

They would be crazy to do that deal.ย 

Carlton need to build players to be hitting their prime in 4 years. Not bring in GWS reject over & over.ย

I went cold on Shiel due to his disposal and goal kicking this year.

He's a peptide now.

Gross. Lost all respect for him.

[censored] hate those flogs. Only thing worse would've been Hawthorn I guess.

  • 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 forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” 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 Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™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 isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™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.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasnโ€™t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
