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.

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • 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 final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
