He was a pick 3 originally.

We live in an odd world where quality players in the system for 30-50 games of development are worth less than they were 3 years ago even thought they’ve still got 10-12 years of footy to play.

Something needs to change as it’s not at all reflecting the equalisation processes of the AFL.

Its seriously like buying a new PC or laptop. The technology is apparently obsolete by the time you bring it home from the store.

    I knew there'd be one. AJ's career was almost finished by the time the Eagles entered the competition, so no real go home factor.

    Alan Johnson’s performance in the ‘87 Elimination Final against the Eagles. In their very first final and our first final since ‘64 was described by coach John Northey as “Magnificent”. Justifiably so.
     

    For those DL’s of a certain vintage most certainly an unforgettable almost legendary time with some great individual and team performances. Despite being derided as ‘ordinary’ and participating in that season’s final series by ‘default’.

    GWS have a strong draft hand. No doubt Vic clubs will be picking them all off in a few years.

     

    I'd be tempted to buck our trend of trading future firsts into the current draft and save the currency for Finn Callaghan who's out of contract next year. GWS are going to continue to bleed players, time for us to cash in.

    It’s nice of GWS to continue to offer to incubate players for other clubs. Can they develop a key defender for when May retires.

    Johnson was unstoppable in that game. One of my earliest memories along with the Lyon winning goal. That was some rivalry!

    I was in the pocket next to the point post with my brother and watched Wrensted run into an open goal only to miss, Sheesh I enjoyed 87 and 88 a lot. Heartbreak and all!

    This Bowes trade really annoys me. This one isn't just a case of a local boy wanting to go home and taking unders to go to a media darling 'well run club'. This is a player that comes with a salary dump and is going to the one club that should not be able to afford it given its recent big signings and other players being brought in this year. Something stinks and eventually someone will talk. There is no way in my mind they are not cheating the salary cap and I've thought this for a number of years, but if they of all clubs can absorb the salary dump then something is rotten in Denmark!! How there is not more media questioning and scrutiny is beyond me.

    Are you suggesting all of those farms, properties and businesses obtained by Cats players are outside the salary cap?

    Surely not. People just love Geelong.

    A lot of players (and their partners) on rural properties there seem to be gifted a new Toyota Landcruiser every few months as well.

    Sadly, nothing will ever be done, and they'll remain a very successful club for a long time.

    Bet you they don’t get 40% off New balance runners though!

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
