won't happen, but moving freo to tassie would solve a few problems

What did Tasmania ever do to you?

 
 

Gives Hawks a chance of knocking off the Saints this week. Could make the last 3 weeks a real hoot.

I literally laughed out loud and had to explain to my husband what the hell this meant. 
He said “you’re deranged” 😂

Well that’s ok, we are all a little mad hatter in this place!

But [censored] that feather cap wearing midget!

Like us in 2019, Freo are in a rebuilding phase - players in for surgery early , experimenting with players in new roles, trying new strategies, giving some young players a run, working out who to cut etc etc.

Clever, as its not really tanking as such, but has the same benefit of ensuring a high draft pick to bring in a gun or package up draft picks to say to do what we did and trade in a player of Ed Langdon's quality to fill a clear need and a grab a second round gem like Bowey.

Well played Freo.

Oh, hold on. I think I've got that wrong.

The dees get all the same benefits of our 2019 season, but none of the pain of finishing 17th - and in addition to freo's first and second round draft pick, we get our own first and second round draft pick! 

Sorry, not sorry Freo.

If it is any consolation Freo, i will be forever grateful and you will always have special place in my heart for the joy you have brought dees fans.   

Also, as further consolation my purple friends, pick four has terrible record of producing decent players.

Oh, hold on. I think I've got that wrong.

Nick Daicos went at four in the 2021 draft as did George Wardlaw in 2022. But don't fret my little anchors, both have probably hit their ceiling.

And yes, we might trade up to get the most promising forward in the draft for many a year, but again don't let the angst overwhelm you - number one draft picks have mixed record of going on to be superstars. 

And whilst a forward line featuring JVR, Jefferson and Reid is simply a mind blowing thought, it is a few years away from being a reality, which gives you, my darling dockers, several seasons of fully bottoming out to grab some high draft picks you can actually keep (unless of course Bell decides to trade them for English because you need an elite ruck with Darcy heading East because Bell brought in a young, not yet proven ruck to take his minutes and salary).  

Sooo in other words, you're just happy we're getting pick 4..??

They were having steaks, so I’m guessing it would’ve been mushroom.

You're probably right - two massive bogans.

Wouldn’t bogans eat steak with seafood sauce “Reef and Beef” I think they called it. Fkcu me!

Bogans would eat steak with tomato sauce


Hawks need to make up 2 games and 10% with 5 matches remaining to overtake freo.

Unfortunately freo have West Coast 

We need hawks to do saints in then hope for an upset against Collingwood or bulldogs (hopefully not us).

Hawks play freo in the final round which could decide pick 3 or 4.

Much more likely if hawks had held on against Richmond last week.

May the Death Ride continue today

🤞🤞

Cats vs Freo at KP

That'll sort out the % differential between them and Hawks!

Keeping a close eye on the Suns game today. Hope they can spring a surprise or at least lose by a smaller margin than Freo do. 🤞


Very conflicted today. I love the death ride but hate Geelong.

Ideally Geelong loses today but Freo still finish in bottom 4 at seasons end.

GC and Freo win, we can get to the Lions and Geelong drop out of the top 8.

In Tasmania they stuff a steak full of Oysters. Odd concept at the best of times, but the name is what really completes it

Pick 4 is, objectively, the best draft pick this century.

In fact, the unsuccessful pick 4s are almost entirely limited to Barry Prendergast selections!

Actually, on further investigation pick 5 may actually have pick 4 just slightly beaten thanks to the incredibly early run of McVeigh, Franklin and Pendlebury, and overall consistency with almost no 'misses', and those misses are GWS anyway.

So I'll be able to remain calm if Freo put in a little bit of a late season spark and somehow climb to 5th-last!

We should try to trade up to get both 4 and 5 because I don't think there's ever been a draft without at least one of them going on to be absolute pinnacle-level champions.

Good on you, Lloydo.

At least, Freo have played in a GF in the last decade. Your mob haven't even managed a finals win in almost two decades. Have some self awareness...

  • 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 forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — 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 Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’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 isn’t a standard concept—it’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.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’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 wasn’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  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
