I wonder whether Amartey at the Swans is gettable. At 197cm, he has so much upside… great pair of hands, ability to ruck when needed, good kick; has looked very good on the rare occasions he got to fill a vacancy in the Swans side.

I think they personally should of told Buddy to retire or change clubs. They can’t play all of Franklin, Reid, McDonald and Amarty.

    And we will have lost our 3 fastest players if Kozzie is in the departure lounge.

    Could be time to add him to the Jacko trade.

    Acres to the Blues for a future third rounder being mentioned tonight. That’s a steal for the Blues. Acres had a good year and was their best player in the semi final.

    We need more outside mids so he would’ve been a good cheap option on the opposite wing to Langdon at that price.

    So pick 12 and 19 for Taranto

    Seems to be likely a future 2nd from Collingwood for Hill

    Hopper looks to be centred around a future 1st and pick 30 from richmond

    Mentioned Soldo to head north, presumably to GWS.

    Bruhn specifics not mentioned but would presumably involve either Geelongs pick 18 or a future 1st.

     

    GWS could have pick 3, 12, 18, 19, 21, 30

    Plus future 1st from Richmond and future 2nd from Collingwood.

    Maybe we can swap Bedford and 32 for 21. Then 21 to Pies for Grundy

    What worries me a bit is we (Freo) were possibly looking to trade up, to get that Pick 8

    I hope this is a sign that Port has stopped chasing Kozzie. Or that Kozzie has told them to f off.

    Gotta change the contracts for first rounder draftees. The top kids get drafted to the struggling clubs and want to leave straight away. A number one pick leaving after one season is not good for the game.

    Surely some kind of 3 way trade that involves the Souva.... ;)

    Can't see anyway North sanctions a trade.

    This is a far cry from the JHF seen to be so excited about joining North he was sleeping in his Jumper after draft night.

    This has to be good for us,  they can't possibly afford to get Picket as well now(this year)

    Reckon you’re correct. 4 year min perhaps.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
