So apparently it was mentioned on SEN this afternoon and then later on channel 7 that we are making a late play for Bruce?

Did anyone catch this??

Was it from the hosts or did someone call in?

I thought he’d agreed to the Dogs on personal terms, was just a matter of the clubs putting a suitable trade together. Unless we pull a Sydney-Lockett style rug pulling why would he have reason to change his mind. Dogs would surely have more $$ than us to offer

The suitable trade hasn’t been found. 

Both parties have valued his worth differently at this point

And it's always good to up his value and make sure the Dogs pay top price ???

 

Really rate him and would be happy to pass the Elliot contract over to him.

 

Next year’s second round pick..?

How old is he?

I cant see us offering much better. Unless we offer this years or next years 2nd (one of which is going for Langdon) then I don’t see him going to us

Yes i heard this on the trade game, don't mind it at all, they'd be after our 2nd rounder isn't that pick 21?

 If everything else fell into place with salary/ contract yrs etc.

Would represent a good bit of business.

Saints clearing the decks for Ben King to come on board next year.

That’d be going to Fremantle for Langdon I’d say.

Perhaps on trading the Frost pick..?  I have no idea what that might be, but Frost for Bruce sounds close to the mark.

Even better?

If we really are into him I hope we get him, not because I rate him but if we miss out we’re going to start looking like Norf soon.

Is his middle name Basil?

My first thought was no way (Bruce more valuable than Frost) but then I checked this year's B & F results - they both finished 9th!

Yes, except they have no intention of doing so

Tomlinson and Langdon say HI!

My issue is everyone is saying saints need to clear space to get king. If we grab him we have no room for king (salary cap wise). So if we want king it's a no, if they want a second round pick (one to Freo and one to saints to me is a no as well as the draft is so even this year especially). But the club will do whatever it wants.

I think the Saints need to take care of this year's shopping list before they look to King.

They need picks and cash to cover Hill, Jones, Ryder, etc.

Something's gotta give.

Hill for 6  is easy but then Howard, Jones, Ryder and Butler maybe, when their next pick is 59.

I suppose the picks for Bruce and Steven could get Jones and Howard and Ryder could be 59 and Butler could be a 2020 pick.

They have cap room and lose Bruce/Newnes/Steven and others to make more room.

It depends how far apart the negotiations are. The Aints need some good numbers to help get all their other deals done. 

The Dogs know it

We should be waiting, just off to the side..

More than happy to add Bruce to the forward line, can take a grab, average set shot. it'll be like Hogan is back

Not his middle name, however..

In the 1939 Sherlock Homes movie, Holmes and Watson were played by Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce respectively. This is how he got the nickname.....Basil.

It’s pretty well documented that the players’ collective-favourite author is Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, so that checks out.

  • 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.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’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 wasn’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  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
