Nice! Any reason for mentioning that?

So Ratugolea has requested a trade to port, how were we not at the front the queue. Another missed opportunity to fix the key fwds.

He is so average, we don’t need another B grader

I’m saying, aggressive trading is what got us in contention for a flag. You ready:

 

Lever, May, Langdon, Ben Brown

 

after 2018, we recognised that we needed backs. In came Lever and May. 
 

we won in 2021 after smart recruiting tht targeted weaknesses. 
 

after 2021, we seemed to be content. Made almost zero changes. We didn’t win 2022 🏆, so I thi k we should look at getting some players in to fill some gaps and weaknesses. So far, we are getting in a Ruckman, whilst having the AA ruckman already, a position many clubs see an unimportant. Meanwhile Geelong are cashing in on young talent from other clubs and have a better draft hand than us. 

Gawn was our only fully fledged elite player in 17/18, so it was easy to afford Lever as a young side on the rise and then May for Hogan made sense.

We now have a stack of expensive players and don’t want to give any of them up when we’re losing Jackson.

I would’ve let Gus go and targeted a key forward or outside run, but where’s the a available key forward? I doubt any money could’ve bought one this year. 
 

We also don’t seem to value outside runners and it’s hard to argue with Goody when we’ve got the flag with our guys. Not a huge stack of quality outside runners lining up either.

I’d have done what was needed to get McStay and Amon and then probably would look stupid in 3 years time when they don’t deliver.

Langdon’s been great but it was the draft that gave us a lot more post 2019 that led to success in 2021. As well as sticking with our players.

Things are getting nasty in the Dunkley standoff.

Maybe we should be looking at destabilising Freo, like they have done to us, if we end up getting shafted in the LJ deal.

The Bulldogs    will turn their attention to attempting to poach a Lions player along with a future first round pick if the Lions cannot find a way to satisfy their demands.

Let’s get Jeff White and give them stuff all

We should’ve offered next year’s first round, whatever we get for Jacko and Oliver as steak knives for Ratugolea. Not quite sure how we’re going to be competitive without him next yr.

Just hit me that this trade situation is pretty much that in reverse!

We gave 2 and 18 for White and 22.

White had played 32 games to LJ's 50 and with a flag and rising star and far superior stats all around, LJ is a mile ahead of White at this stage. White wasn't even a regular in the Freo side, playing 32 games in 3 years.

We gave them Pick 2 and a 4 pick upgrade, for a far lesser player than LJ , at that stage.

It was almost like the still relatively new concept of the draft at the time meant that teams were more speculative with what they did with picks. 

Was a different time. I spoke with a less prominent figure in the media once who said (as a then fan) he called the club and spoke with Cameron Schwab and asked him which players we were going for and how serious we were on White and Shannon Grant etc. Crazy how much its changed.

Mackie at Geelong doing a Bell/Dodoro and other clubs are getting p-ssed off.

Maybe he’s now asking every club for their first rounder + the player, given that’s what GCS are doing.

Haha, maybe they don't have the cap space we think they do and need to move some money!

Don't worry about it. You're awesome. I enjoy your posts.

 

The entire trade set up with the PSD needs to be looked at because it's resulting in clubs not acting in good faith IMO

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • 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

    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.
