Not much of a step back from the 1st rounder we swapped to Norf, which will be Pick #18

?

Right on the money as always, Moonie!

 

We need outside run and small forwards.These can be found or developed. Jeremy Cameron is very expensive. As RFA he would would cost 1.5M at least. It may mean we need to sell off Petracca or Angus. We have 1 or 2 too many great midfielders which will be hard to pay. 

We would win a flag with Jeremy Cameron in our team like Tigers did with Lynch. They didn't balk when Reivoldt was still kicking goals, as they knew they had to get one of the best. They had small forwards but they came up with the contract and got the chocolates. Time is right, Now or never.

There’s a lot more holes to fill to win a flag, this is not the answer


Give me the injury free run like the Tigers had in 2017. They had one bloke Nathan Drummond unavailable on Grand Final day (across VFL and afl grand finals).

He missed that we traded North’s first rounder back a few spots which got us the Rivers pick. Makes it look even better for us

First time in a while that I can remember being halfway through their first season and being so excited by our first three picks in a draft

Brings back memories of $cully, Trengrove, and Gysberts... ?

Kozzie Pickett vs pick 10-13 in what pundits  are describing as one of the weakest drafts ever

What else is there to say except 'Thanks North'.

What is even better is that pick 10-13 will be pushed back to 15-20 after all the top academy and aligned players are taken.

Can't imagine we would get the likes of Kozzie with that sort of a pick this year.

Kozzie is a bit of a bargain really.  And we get a year of experience into him.

Yes the original trade with Nth was a win for nth as we included 26 and 50 but when we traded nths pick (8) to freo for 10 (12 pickett)  we got an i think 28 (rivers) back from freo which equaled everything out.

"Restricted free agent Williams politely declined the long-term commitment and those talks are indefinitely on hold as 17 other clubs circle the speedster.

North Melbourne has reportedly shown interest, while the Demons are actively looking for more pace and skills. These two clubs will have plenty of competition if Williams remains unsigned this time next month."

One a bit left field is Shaun Higgins.. i think Nth might look to gut the place in terms of age and therefore older players will be up for grabs.. he would be a great pick up as he has so much class.. could be great off a Half back.. just a thought.. feel free to howl it down.

Would be 33 at the start of next year. Big call.

yeah its a big call and no idea of injury concerns but i watch him and he moves so well and is so classy.. but as i sad im just spit balling.. 

The Higgins idea got floated around here either last year or the year before. I don't hate the idea but just can't see it being worthwhile.

We can always do with more class

trade Preuss for ...

Preuss - 2nd (if we're lucky) or 3rd rounder

No one is giving you anything for ANB, Smith or Hunt, maybe a 4th rounder for ANB if you're lucky

My Dees List: Finals standard AFL players

Key Forwards: Weideman

Medium Forwards: Melksham, Fritsch

Small Forwards: None 

Inside Mids: Oliver Trac Viney Brayshaw Harmes

Outside Mids: Bennell, Langdon

Medium/Small Defenders: Salem, Hibberd, Jetta

Key Defenders: May Lever

Ruck: Gawn

 

I'd be chasing, 

Key Forward, CHF type. (Jacko will be a ruckman/onball)

Small Forward/Mid: Papley type

Left foot Wingman

Outside Mids: Goalkicker would be nice. 

Mature Rebounding Right foot defender: (I really like Rivers but he'll take a year or 3)

Will be Interesting to see if Norf use their 2 x first round picks to bid on any of the aligned players. Or if other clubs with top pick do, for that matter.

I like that happening because it means 2nd, 3rd, and 4th round picks get gobbled up for points, and our later picks move up the order and potentially become very handy. For example, 48, 60 and 62 might end up being 32, 45 and 46.

Depends what numbers the picks might be. ATM Geelong have 16 & 17 and Bris have 18 &19. Both pairs are 1st rounders.

Would you give 18 & 19 for Papley? I certainly would, dc!

Isaac Smith > imo, younger and more reliable (body wise)

We can always strengthen i think the stick with what we have attitude is wrong. the time is now to go all in on the next 3-5 year period.

i like the Tarrant and Talia talk a lot too (allows OMac and Smith to leave) and i wouldnt be opposed to a preuss trade rewarding the man if the top ruck spot opened up (cats/giants/hawks/swans) we would bring in a CCJ type to replace him and probably pay them less (also more fwd suitability) 

vanders is not the answer on the wing and jones wont be in the side next year so a williams/polec/hunter style player is an absolute necessity with hibbo being 30+ too. obvs not discounting rivers in that role too. 

With Hunt/CWagner presumably falling off the list and ANB/Baker pretty close behind a small forward is ideal. I keep saying Cockatoo and i wouldnt be opposed to a Petrucelle (WCE) either. 

and Pete Wright cannot be happy at the suns surely 

Also Smith has no trade value as hes OOC he'll be delisted and picked up that way or will be for an exchange of picks that moves us up the draft.

  • 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.

    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

    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.
