Jeez he said his mum wouldn’t be happy if he had to move interstate, bloody hell.!!!

Full quote:

Though Adams said it would be “pretty exciting” to go to the Magpies which from the outside it looks like a “good fun club”, he has no qualms to moving interstate. However the West Australian said his mother might take some convincing to get on board.

“Open to the opportunity, mum might be a bit disappointed losing another one of her children because my sister’s over in America at the moment,” Adams said. “She might be upset, but I won’t be too mad, I might get mum getting off me about cleaning dishes.”

 

Thanks wwsw, hopefully once May, Lever, Petty and Turner get around him he will become a fully fledged Dee.!!!

 

Would be nice if teams could stop picking players so we can have some talent for a rookie pick

Topped up in the trade period and now have replacements on deck for Ben Brown and May.

After getting Lever and McDonald replacements in Turner and JVR last year.

Plus a big hand next year to hammer midfield and quality flankers.

Get some pace and special skills in the rookie draft please 

Absolutely agree.  Next year we will have to go for more pace across half back and midfield.

So happy for Caleb Mitchell.

Agree @dazzledavey36  Wanted him in red and blue.  I was thinking we’d grab him when our pick came.  
Loved his ability to side step and deliver in his left foot.  Moves with composure with footy in hand.  Oh well. Have to put trust in JT. 

 

Jed Adams has very good highlights is quick, agile and has great hands, played both forward and back in the highlights.

Cal Twomey picked for first 13 in correct order and predicted 59 selections in total. The bloke's a freak.

So how did Barnett slide so far?

Or perhaps has a very good relationship with most of the recruiters

I think the desire for trades this year made the top 10 present itself. Teams had to call each other and player managers and probably Cal to really work out who was going where to evaluate trades. 

Still, it’s impressive work from Cal to have the order figured out. I hope teams get a little more aggressive with trades and are willing to do so without the order completely revealed in future years so there’s some more drama

Some media about our 2022 draft recruits for those interested.

Edit: they all speak very well and there is yet another pump up for McVee in there.

Very enjoyable to see them and hear them. We forget how young they are.

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
