I enjoy this thread, but it makes me a bit uncomfortable reminding me a bit of the days when we pinned our hopes on an early draft pick messiah.

    That is not the vibe I get. 
    It’s about getting maximum return for a player we spent pick 3 on and also laughing at Freo after they tried to screw us.

    It's also about poking fun at a pig-headed club and list manager.

    We could actually win the whole bloody thing this year, while Taylor sets us up for the next decade with picks 4, 18 and 22. Get excited Sue.

    oh I am.  Just this nagging feeling about over reliance on hanging out for picks in the past. Not relevant now.

    I hope the swans win today but I have this terrible premonition that Freo may win.

    I like this thread because i get to laugh and cheer on another clubs' misfortune. A misfortune that we get to benefit from. It's great fun. Petty and mean-spirited fun for sure but great fun, nonetheless.

    I know I'm being extremely pedantic but in fact there will be 19 spots between the draft picks we get from Fremantle assuming North finish below Fremantle (a pretty safe assumption). This Special assistance pick comes in just below North's 2nd Round pick (which they traded to Adelaide). Ironically this extra pick was traded to Fremantle.

    So, based on Fremantle finishing 14th (where they are now) and Melbourne being Premiers, Melbourne's picks will be 5, 18, 24, 37, 91. Who knows how many father/son and academy selections push the higher picks down and pick 91 up? (not that we're likely to use our 5th round pick). I'm hoping we pick up Kynan Brown as a father/son. Not sure how high he will go.

    Go Swannies (for this week at least!).

    Tom McCartin out. No McCartins, Reid or Rampe.

    Tough ask. Here’s hoping.

    Swans 18 to Dockers 7, 25mins into first.

    19 to 7 at 1/4 time.

    I actually don’t mind Sydney but find it almost impossible to go for a team with Tom Papley in it.

    Neither of these teams will play finals thats for sure.

    Freo getting more of the pill but their ball movement is so predicable. Swans not very inspiring either.

    that umpire is a clown. 

    I take that back. Blakey is a clown

    Swans very poor. The mids are getting taken to the cleaners and they can't move the ball.

    Freo much the better team. They should win but they are always liable to shoot themselves in the foot so you never know.

    45 to 32 in favour of Freo at the half.

    Tom McCartin pulls out, Mills off early 1st quarter and Sydney seem to have stopped.

    Hopefully big Swans second half.

  • Quote

    17 free to Freeo in the first half

    5 fifty metre penalties given

    quality umpiring!

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.

They will travel 8 times including their home game in the Alice, their Gather Round game as well as a match against the Hawks in Tasmania. They will face, the Bombers, Bulldogs, the Suns, the Tigers, the Hawks and the Dockers twice.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      Melbourne returned to its city citadel, IKON Park, boasting a 10–2 home record and celebrating its 100th AFLW matchwith 3,711 fans creating a finals atmosphere. But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.
