The way AFL are handing out compensation picks, we should put our hand over for consecutive finals straight set exits, end of round 1 compo?

Do you ever think we’ll see a draft that isn’t compromised again?

    Agree. It’s just a bluff. Grundy will get to Sydney. It’s just at what number and how much of his contract is paid by Pies, Dees and Swans. AFL Sudoku at work.  
    Grundys recruitment and departure after one year will be remembered as one of the biggest “head scratcher” trade deals done by the Dees. 

    The Dees will pay nothing of Grundy's salary going forward....thats all down to Collingwood and his new club.

    MFC just playing for a better pick.thsn Sydney's opening gambit... that part is just part of the trade week game.

    Will be some time coming. Unless the contracts get renegotiated, could be a veeeery long time. As it stands, the current contract is so heavily lopsided in AFLs favour, it’ll tank the Tassie economy.

    If we can’t get Sydney to oay a decent pick AND $650k - we may end up paying something of his salary

    $650 for Grundy is a steal.  We won't be paying any.

    We just got Harmes' 500k off the books so don't need to pay $$

    With the Petty news floated recently this might have some merrit. I don't think that deal cuts it by any means but interesting times ahead.

    Not sold on Fogarty, but i trust our FD know what they're doing.

    I know he can kick, but isn't he just another Fritsch? Aren't we lacking a bonadife tall?

    I’m fairly certain Fogarty is bigger than Fritsch and a much more aggressive player.  Fogarty and JVR would hurt some defenders with the way they attack the ball.

    People think Fritsch is lazy in terms of def and chasing.  Add Fog as well 😳

    This Petty talk is making me a little nervous.  Hope its all just SA media talk.

    Almost every club has had financial assistance. Ours was far less than some. 

    North don’t need 3 x first round picks for financial survival. They don’t need them to sell memberships. That’s what picks 2 and 3 as well as Larkey, Sheezel and Wardlaw will do.

    There’s no need for them. The only reason they’re getting them is because Clarko had a meltdown. 

    I can imagine Gil having a meltdown and kowtowing over this.

    Clarko may have had some issues but i think he played the AFL beautifully as well.

    Inquiry dropped! 👍🏻💪🏼

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
