Our top 4 forwards have kicked 64 goals total this year, 

in 2018 our top 4 forwards kicked 150 goals. 

three of our 2018 top 4 forwards are still on the list, and 2 played on the weekend. 

we've gone so far backwards offensively since 2018 it's not even funny, 

We need forwards, a gun small forward, a big bloke who can take and mark and the best forward craft/forward coach in the business are absolute musts for us.

I agree with your last point about bringing in a forward craft coach. Our forwards are seemingly not taught basic skills of space and awareness. We lead into the congestion or to the pockets.  Often there is the “fat side” with space or the ability to leave a hole.  This is not my view as Brown, Carey, Brereton have same comments. That’s a fairly decent group of smart key forwards.  One of them would be handy in a part-time capacity. An hour a week with any of these blokes would still cost but it’d be very beneficial. 

 

I found this interesting..

Article states we were one of the 3 clubs to have been told he won't be traded and that we had shown interest for a while now.

Very interesting, i suppose that means we've got some money to throw around, or at least think we will after other trades go through.

Disappointing we wont get him but very encouraging we were going after him.

We just might be big players in trade week.

Its looking like so. 

This also means we are still after a small forward to compliment Pickett. 

What other options are out there??

Yes, I'm a big a fan of Lonie. Problem is I read the other day that Doggies in the box seat to land him.

 

The word is that Collingwood have a very tight salary cap and need to re sign Moore and De Goey....

Some players will be squeezed out.

Phillips (even though contracted) could be getable and would be a great compliment to Langdon.

Another hard running wingman.

We went hard after Jamie Elliott last year so it doesn't surprise me.

Not too sure but now we know Papley was on the radar I am greedy and want us to land a gun forward not some mediocre player.

A few I would have on my list to enquire about (that would be some kind of chance):

Zac Fisher (Contracted to 2021, not likely to move, but Carlton will look for big body help for Cripps)
Brent Daniels (Contracted to 2021, not likely, big squeeze on at GWS tho so worth asking)
Jake Aarts (Rookie, out of contract)
Shane McAdam (Contracted to 2021, who knows with Adelaide though)
Orazio Fantasia (Contracted to 2021, as above tho)

Interesting mate. Do you mean he's gettable because you've heard or you're putting it out there as an idea?

Would love Tom. Not sure how we'll go with that.

Trade table - Pruess, OMac, TMac, ANB, Smith

Delist/Retire - Jones, Jetta, KK, Bradkte, Dunkleyor Brown, Wagner x 2 

Targets - Moore, mature Sml Fwd (Bruest?)

Role Changes - Harmes back to mid/tagging role; Viney to be split between fwd pockett and mid; if no trade for TMAC send to CHB and Tomlinson to wing

List changes - Promote Lockhart and Bennell; Demote Neitschke to Rookie


The most compromised draft ever (Academy and F/S) is about to be compromised further.  Quite a few FA's are being courted:  Daniher, Couch, Williams, Cameron, Viney etc. 

Nearly all would land a first round comp pick and those recipient teams will be in the top 10 of the draft. 

The draft system is completely broken. 

 

We did well to check out our best 2020 chips last year.  Wouldn't think we take too many picks before 35 to the draft.  Best to trade out our better chips for players we need.

Good point about the FA compo, Luce. Hawthorn's #22 might end up in the 30s

Kozzie and Rivers look even better value!

cumming 16 touches 11k5h @94%!!! at his price and given more responsibility he would offer us SOOOOO much next to rivers at HB.

  • 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.
