Iโ€™d like to keep that money set aside for a 5-year deal out for Zac Butters at end of 2023. ย 

He wonโ€™t leave Port Adelaide.

    Does the Hawthorn fallout include Karl Amon looking somewhere else other than Hawthorn?

    He'd certainly be handy to pair with Langdon's run, Bowey and Salem's ball use.

    That would complement us perfectly.

    I suppose his foot skills wouldn't really fit in. Here I was thinking we need speed and good disposal added into our best 22. Apparently we just need grunt on the wing.

    Edit: Just to reiterate, I'm in favour of getting jack bowes, pick 7 and 13 and keeping gus/Jordan on the wing. But as I said, if the club is so keen on Amon, why not Hill?

    Soft as melting butter, you obviously like flakey players!? We are talking about Hill aren't we??

    Hey mate. Has there been any word yet on next years salary cap? I haven't heard anything which is strange seeing there's a trade period coming up. Where did you hear $600k? Cheers.

    Heard it on either AFL exchange or Sportsday podcast as โ€˜insiders say.โ€™

    odd that it hasnโ€™t been confirmedย

    Hill has looked shocking at the Saints, genuinely scared of contactย 

    Yes, agreed and lazy too. Great potential if prepared to go in hard, but he doesnโ€™t. Looks like heโ€™s just coasting.

    As far as wingers go that wouldn't break the bank. I like Lachie Sholl from the crows. Quick, skillful and a massive tank. He is a bit light but we have enough brutes . Melbourne boy who found himself in the twos towards the end of the year.

    Obviously he isnโ€™t great at the contest but Iโ€™m shocked by how little playing time he got at the crows this year (unless I missed something). Given their stage of development as a side Iโ€™d give every possible game to Sholl to see if he makes it. Iโ€™m not sure we have the same luxury, but if he was available free of charge heโ€™d be someone worth a look at. Heโ€™s a beautiful looking kick.ย

    Averaged 0.82 tackles a game this year.

    That ranked him 555th out of 571 players this year for tackling. Of those who averaged fewer tackles, he's the only one to have played more than 6 games and be under 190cm. The only semi-regular non-key position/ruck that tackled less than him was noted defensive hard man, Riley Bonner.

    I reckon that's got a fair bit to do with his non-selection in the second half of the year.ย

    my crom support mate loathes scholl almost as much as he can't stand fish mcasey

    he considers the latter emblematic of their first round drafting which has been, quite frankly, abysmal

    2021: josh rachele at pick 6 (a winner)
    2020: riley thilthorpe at pick 2, luke pedlar at pick 11 (jury out on the latter)
    2019: fish mcasey at pick 6 (looks a bust)
    2018: chayce jones at pick 9, ned mchenry at pick 16 (both classique good, ordinary afl level players)
    2017: darcy fogarty at pick 12 (has taken burgess to get him fit enough for afl)
    2016: jordan galucci at pick 15 (a bust)
    2015: wayne milera at pick 11, tom doedee at pick 17 (probably their last good first round selections)

    as we well know, if you get yr first round picks 'wrong' yr up against it to build a good side

    Wouldn't be against it. Improvement on the Jordan / Spargo combo. Still wonder why we never put Brayshaw back to his premiership winning position at some stage during the year

    Absolutely not worth the risk. He is a meat and potato midfielder.ย

    Can't see indiscretions by ex staff from a decade ago weighing on his decision that heavily. Could be wrong

    The reason he is playing 2s is because of his skills and defensive pressure.ย  And in the SANFL finals when the heat turned up he was very average!

    Be better of investing in our list and getting a cheap backup like Phillips,ย  who I think just didn't fit the right age demographic at Hawks.ย ย

    • 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 forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” 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 Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™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 isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™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. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™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 wasnโ€™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 ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
