Target Ed Langdon now. Watched his game again on the weekend.  Skilled.  Great kick. Pace and run.  Likes a contest.  Happily trade our future 2020 first round pick to get him.

    We need our picks. We're not in the premiership window anymore. 

    I want a reason to come to the footy.  Oscar Baker, Sparrow, Spargo, Bedford, Weideman, Jordon, Petty etc. don't really excite me. It's time  Jason Taylor picks up someone with a bit of flair. And no more forward pockets that aren't the full package. Bedford, fast no skills. Spargo, good skills, but slow. A jamie elliott type or no-one please.

    *Just my personal opinion.

    Delist:
    Bedford, Stretch, Baker, Maynard, O.Mcd, J.Wagner.

    That's 6 players. Realistically we will keep Omcd because the coaches love him for some reason so thats 5 delistings.

    Use them all at the draft on quick types.  Nail the first pick and cross our fingers that one of the later picks work out.

    Freo, remember them last trade season? Early 2nd round pick to them; which is not meant to be a knock on Ed Langon.

    • bedford is on a standard two year deal so that won't happen
    • i'd hope that stretch is a more of a trade opportunity for a third / fourth rounder with additional swap rather than delist
    • baker is a likely delist
    • maynard the same
    • o mac - don't be ridiculous, might be a trade option, but even that is unlikely
    • j wagner a likely delist

    you could easily add:

    • nathan jones a possible retirement
    • jordan lewis a likely retirement
    • jkh a likely delist
    • jeff garlett a likely retirement
    • tim smith a likely delist
    • declan kielty a likely delist
    • guy walker a likely delist

    then i'd personally be listening to offers for:

    • jayden hunt - second / third rounder or a player swap?
    • alex neal-bullen - third rounder or a player swap?

    Priority should be Stephen Wells. Seems to make the draft picks stick for Geelong.

    Reckon it’s nature not nurture, then?

    Wells’ record is good but without the development of players that Geelong seem to be able to do they might not be as good as they are

    Nuts. Oscar Baker will be in our 22 within 9 weeks. I really don’t get some of the reactionary thoughts on here.

    Some people already want Jordon and Bedford delisted.....  they're teenage rookies who have played 4 or 5 games in the VFL.

    Crazy times around here I tell ya.

    Ed Langdon in no rush to re-sign at Fremantle Dockers

    Fremantle midfielder Ed Langdon says he will not start contract negotiations with the Dockers until the second half of the year.

    Langdon, who along with fellow young Victorian midfielder Darcy Tucker shapes as one of the Dockers’ key re-signings, said he was happy at the WA club but would wait to deal with the contract issue.

    Because he can't get a kick mate. There is a chasm between VFL and AFL. If he can't get near it at the lower level, do you blame some for being less than enthusiastic about his prospects ?

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
