I think you all need to back off a bit on Omac, ok he didn’t end up as we were all hoping, but a lot of you keyboard warriors who have probably never played a competitive game of football in your lives .

Pretty average 

Get over yourself, it’s a fan forum, what were you expecting? Oscar is a bog average footballer who likely wouldn’t even dominate club footy. How he stayed with us do long is a bit beyond me.

    Rapt with that.  I really want Oscar to find a new home.  He has more to offer.

    I think he will probably be a bargain wherever he goes. IMO the best out-of-contract player we have. Just isnt working for him at present. At 196cm and 24(?) yrs old, his best is in front of him, but still may be a year off. I expect him to be in the ones at Adelaide and pushing into top 25 if at Pies. He is friends with Darcy Moore already and they may work together well.

    For interest's sake, the current pick currency at Adelaide and Collingwood stands at:

    Adelaide: 1, 9, 22, 23, 33, 40, 50, 56, 66, 80 

    Collingwood: 16, 39, 42, 75, 92 

    Whereas we have: 26, 43, 68, 69, 89 

    I wonder what the FD can wrangle out of the above?

    My guess is they will take anything to find him a new home. I expect the pick will 80 at the crows or 92 at pies. Good luck O Mac.

    The Crows have lost Hartigan and might need to replace him.

    Yes, would give them some cover.

    Adelaide's Pick 56 would be  nice and after-all it is their 8th pick in the draft.

    Think @Rolling Stone's on the money of it's Collingwood.

    I'd take either 66 (if Adelaide want him), or 75 (if Collingwood want him).

    Sounds just like Demonland... kidding Andy!

    He will be a bargain pick up for whoever gets him. 
     

    New coach and structure and he will do wonders! I think at 24yo, Adelaide is a good fit for him for a long career... Can’t trust the Pies these days!

    Wait, you're not banned? Just be careful and don't call him out for his [censored]. He'll tell everyone not to abuse him and then abuse anyone he likes. Also, have you seen the spoof page? Best page if you're after a laugh.

    the spoof page is hilarious! i've been banned but i can still view posts, just not comment. the young man who runs it wasn't happy with my suggestion that Christian Petracca was a better player than jack Billings.

    Luke Molan says hi back, as does Lucas Cook. I know they weren’t top 5 picks but they were just as bad.

    How would you know? They both bever played.

    No news in the main channels about OMac.  Also ANB was named before the period and now all is quiet.  No interest, or just not interesting??

    One didn’t have the body to stand up to the rigours of AFL. The other, well he had just about 0 AFL qualities (especially the hunger/dedication) - even his own manager told him to expect being taken as a late 2nd/3rd round pick.

    They mentioned on AFL Exchange today that Neal-Bullen was looking around at options but there was no interest from other clubs

    Petty has a lot of potential and I hope we can more games into him but if we're targeting Brown and another wingman (previously Smith) the club is gunning for a premiership with with the list we've got.

    Tarrant could fill the void if May or Lever goes down, could Petty or Smith? Unlikely at this stage.

    Petty will very soon if he gets a good run at it.

    Crows would be a good fit. They need to replace Hartigan.  Oscar didn’t develop and clearly was not up to AFL Standard.  Embarrassed by rookies Georgiades and Mcinerney. We bid him farewell. 
     

    Oscar and MFC pick 43 for Crows pick 40.  

    OR 

    Oscar for Crows pick 66

    • 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.
