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 😳

    I'd take Fogarty, no question. improves our set shot kicking straight away, Why do the Crows want to move him on?

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

    The competition is full of meatheads - it’s almost a prerequisite

    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! 👍🏻💪🏼

    Sydney offered pick 46 for Grundy, I assume the Dees got up and walked out of the room laughing.

    Was this Dodoro pulling a prank? 
    A laughable offer.

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
