Oh right, I didn’t realise. I watched him play once and he was marking everything but ended up with 5 behinds or something similar. Knows how to find the ball for sure

He recently signed for 2 years with Freo last week. This thread  should be closed.

    You'd have to feel for Lobb - requesting a trade 2 years in a row... must be difficult to work hard for your employer week in week out as a by-product.

    I don't he signed a contract honor it. I am tired of these players who want to leave contracts early. Same applies to clubs like Collingwood.

    Tarryn Thomas ✅ 

    His back half of 2021 was elite once he was moved into the midfield. As classy as they come.

    Really fell away in 2022 form-wise and was also dealing with some personal issues.

    Hope we’re having discussions with his management as I think with a fresh start he would be a great fit for the Dees.

    This came up on my FB page. We are dealing with the club that has the lowest to offer us for LJ. Where as WC have so much more in draft capital.

    Freo will get picks from the trade out of Acres, Logue, Lobb and Tucker. Dees should demand a top 10 pick from Freo (which they need to trade up using the Logue trade packaged with pick 13) and their 2023 1st round pick.

    DubDee was talking about Ollie Henry who has asked to be traded from Collingwood to Geelong.

    It's a no from me on Thomas. He hits targets. Will take years to teach him to kick it over the head of BBB.

    So:

    OUT: Mitch Brown / Majak / Rosman / Hunt / Bedford

    IN: Gundy  / Freo Picks x 1 ( 1 will be future first) so unless others.. rest will be draft haul not trade haul? 

    Disappointed if that's it.

    Absolutely [censored] poor. These kids all want to be pick one but play for successful club. Well that’s not how the system works. Where is the resilience? 
    This guy won’t make it unless he grows up. 

    Exactly what they said about Einstein, Jagger and Zuckerburg. So the kid is obviously no chance.

    I could live with this (needs more balancing):

    Logue, Tucker to North

    Thomas to Melb

    Freo's first pick to Melb

    Jackson to Freo

    All the people sooking we aren't linked to 700 players like Essendon are every year need to get a grip. Our club does things quietly and diligently. I have no doubt there are other players we are looking at but not telling the media about.

    High quality user by foot. Likes the physical stuff and was right up there in f50 tackles last year and good at winning the ball at stoppages. He and Tracc rotating between mid/fwd would be terrific.

    Alternatively could play out of defence for us too.

    Thomas and Langdon could practice their contact drills on the same side.

    As long as we dont stand still for another year. We Won a flag and added Luke Dunstan. We need to keep getting better players in. But i hope and think you are probably right about the club not leaking which is a very good sign.

    It's hard to go to the trade and draft at the the same time unless there's a FA you want.  Look at Richmond, they're going to wipe out two drafts for Taranto and Hopper.

    Go and look at his draft profile and his strengths and weaknesses and the reason he went as high as he did. 

    He has smarts in spades, he just needs a defined role. 

    If ANB can play half forward, Jordan and Brayshaw on a wing then I'm sure a previous number 3 draft pick can learn to play a position.

    I'd have him in our midfield rotation as is anyway. He can compete with Sparrow and Harmes for that spot over summer. 

    More competition for spots and lifts the standards of those he'd be competing with. 

    His exposed form at AFL/VFL level is more relevant than his draft position. Just has not shown much at AFL level.

    Random question, can't find the trade tracker on the afl website. Are they not doing one this year? Was, generally speaking, a pretty good way to easily keep track of movements but can only see links to the trade articles as they happen.

    Yeahbdont think they're doing it this year. I'm pretty sure that's the same as thr national draft as well on draft night.

    Can't see it either. The AFL site seems to have gotten rid of anything useful this year.

    • 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.
