Richmond has to knock off north next week and I'm not overly confident about it. Could slide back to pick 6 in worst case scenario.

    Silver lining for a Freo win next week v Port, will be us back in the top 2. If the Pies also get it done. 

    Edit: I mean this slightly sarcastically. Massive silver lining lol

    Why is Richmond tanking? Don't they know the pick doesn't belong to them?

    Hardwick saw the mess and jumped early when offered a nice young list

    Not surprising to read that a lot of aspiring coaches aren't applying for the position.

    We'll finish with a pick between 4-6. JT will find a very good player for us in that range i'm sure.

    West coast Eagles are a laughingstock. How is Adam Simpson still in a job?

    Cost a fortune to break his contract.

    Things are so bad now after Freo debacle they may have no choice.

    Will be staggering if he's still there in 2024. Theyre a very wealthy club.

    They'll cut a massive cheque and be done with him.

    Adam Simpson is the least of the problems at West Coast

    Their list management and fitness and conditioning teams need to be thrown out. 

    They need a complete overhaul of both.

    Health and conditioning head has been sacked. And no doubt their recruitment has been poor.

    i think Simpson is a big part of the problem. for whatever reason the players are obviously not playing for him. Thats a death knell for any coach. the only reason he is still there is because of his contract. Too expensive to sack.

    Goldcoast now playing like they’re tanking. Hard to believe they could be this incompetent.

    Useless bloody Suns couldn’t hold onto their lead, but the umpires did help to drag the blues over the line.

    Pick 4 will still be ours as long as the Suns can knock off roos and the hawks can take care of Freo.

    GC lost but didnt lose much %

    Freo should lose some % tomorrow hopefully

    Yes. That push out of Casboult was pretty obvious. 4 umpires and none of them can see it.

    pick 5 minimum and still a good chance for pick 4.

    The hawks will beat Freo next week i reckon but I hate relying on the Suns to hold up their end of the bargain. Wouldn't be surprised if the chit the bed against the roos. Most undependable team in the league

    Roos losing in the Reid cup is an absolute certainty.

    Well it was, until the WC board changed their stance on the potential to sack Simpson.

    Yes but they still have Curtin.

    North could have called their bluff and said take Reid and we take Curtin.

    Then swap them 2 years later anyway.

    Both clubs now get their first choice player.

    true. but WC could have split pick 1 and got a couple of picks. 

    do you think they'll split pick 2 or take curtin with it?

    I like our chances of getting Pick 4. On form I can't see how Fremantle beat Hawthorn and Gold Coast should beat North. Or both sides could win or lose and Gold Coast make up the 1.6% percentage differential (32 points right now).

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
