What if we ignore the draft entirely and package up our 2 first round picks in a trade for Ben King?

I'm not sure, but where have I heard about a trade like that in the recent past?

    So ideal scenario is WC last, Richmond 17th and Freo 16th?

    However hard to see both NM and Hawthorn above Richmond and Freo.

    No the ideal scenario is Freo finishing last...not likely but ideal non the less.

    Unfortunately the tank is on at both West Coast and Hawthorn whereas Freo and Richmond have nothing to gain by finishing as low as possible. So I think pick 4 is the absolute best outcome we can hope for. 

    West Coast, Hawks and Norf will fight to the death for that spoon. We play Hawks twice and Norf once more… so good luck to us if we think Freo finish bottom.

    LOL.  The bf Freo board has a thread called 'Roast - Vent Here'.

    They must be wearying - just little wimpers this week rather than the earlier maddening rage.

    Very interesting game this week. Maybe it’s wishful thinking on my part but I give the hawks a big chance. They’ve been playing ok particularly in the first halves of games before fading in the second. A good start against freo and who knows.

    I’ll be glued to this game on sat night

    looks like darcy might miss with injury this week, so dog will undoubtedly star as a starting ruckman

    And Freo might then realise that he is in fact a ruckman. Damn.

    Will be interesting if that happens, will leave Longmuir with a very difficult decision. Do the Hawks even have a ruckman of note?

    If Mitch Lewis learns to kick straight he will be unstoppable. One of the best contested marks in the game at the moment.

    He might not be of note, but the Hawks have Meek, the ex Docker ruckman, who dominated against Casey for the Box Hill Hawks.

    Whenever I watch the Hawks play, their ruckman, Reeves I think he is, seems very ordinary.

    Freo are slops. Hawthorn have had a few close games but if Freo spank them then posters are right about hawks tanking. If fatso Darcy is out then Hawthorn has to be something of a chance.

    Freo will probably win otherwise Longmuir will be lynched outside Fremantle Yacht Club.

    Let's go WC tank! 

    Hoping the Eagles tank is a heavier Soviet era model.

    Managing their best players for a winnable game! I wasn't sure but I think it's absolutely obvious now that they are tanking.

    I just hope that rotten club languish at the foot of the table forever more. Serves them right. And i hope North and the Eagles finish below them. 

    In fact, I hope they go bankrupt. That way we won't have to put up with their insufferable supporters and God awful guernsey.

    Managing players at round 8 when you are slop? Breust needs managing? For what... Finals?

    I bet nobody at AFL house will even blink an eye about this very obvious case of tanking. That only happens to Melbourne.

    Freo by 10 goals.

    Hawks are expert tankers with a demeanour of ‘how dare you say we do what we are doing’…

    ND4 the best outcome for us. Which is great.

    Sam Mitchell is a genius. Nobody else can see the brilliance of his thinking.

    I, for one, applaud the innovation of coming into a winnable game and 'resting' your leading goalkicker.

    This also means that this is the first game since 2008 where Hawthorn haven't fielded any premiership players.

    Official end of an era.

    Breust you could understand, but Jiath is a kid.

    The tank is on...funny if Freo still blow it.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

      The rugged Sparrow’s career appears to have plateaued in recent years. He makes the side on a week to week basis but he is unable to establish a foothold in the team’s midfield and arguably performs best outside of the contest in a forward position without being a goal kicker. He remains a good honest foot soldier but is not a star.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

      Fullarton managed a couple of games in the first half of the season but soon found himself back in the VFL. There, he found a niche at centre half back but it was not enough to retain a place on the list at season’s end.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #35 Harrison Petty

      Entering 2025, it looked as if Petty would be secured in a defensive position, but plans shifted and he spent more time forward, averaging just over a goal per game throughout the season. It remains uncertain which area of the ground he will be expected to cover under the new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

      The dynamic small forward, possessing an innate ability to generate excitement with his explosive play around the goals, successfully transitioned into a role that afforded him more time in the midfield. The club also negotiated a long-term deal with Pickett, thereby eliminating any prospect of a move west by their star young player.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #37 Kade Chandler

      For a few years now, he has been a reliable, hard working pressure forward, but in 2025, Chandler elevated his performance, becoming an integral component of the team with enough versatility to play effectively on a wing from time to time.
