Well, two and a half players to be precise.

It feels like a lot of deals have been made late so things sound comprehensive, but really only 3 clubs have made significant large-scale changes - Roos, Dogs and Tigers. 

I hate this extended trade period fluff.

Another trade period .. who did we pick up a ruck playing at his 4th club , a winger from the lions, no disrespect to them ..comparing to other clubs we just can’t attract any ready made talent ..  great to see our fwd line beefed up

And who would you suggest, Stringer (Mr Hot and Cold)?

It's a shame that we couldn't do a deal to trade you for somebody who doesn't constantly whinge and criticise.

Yes, a bit like a poster on here saying we should make a play for Luke Parker (past use by date unfortunately) thankfully we didn't.

Nice try, but you know Demonsone has no time for you, Demonstone.

Getting Matt Kennedy and 25 for Daniel makes it a little easier to swallow for the dogs after the Bailey deal.

Out of all the players that changed clubs, the only one I'm spewing we didn't get was Peatling, especially at the price.

Unfortunately once we tumbled down the ladder -  accompanied by the perceived issues at MFC - we lost the opportunity to recruit this year's premier target, Dan Houston. We were the front runners early on, but yeah...

I think we've done the right thing by getting ourselves 2x top 10 picks. We still have at least 2 years of Gawn at his top, and if Petracca and Oliver (returning to form) in the team then we have another 4 or so years with them. If our picks are good then they could easily be a part of a premiership within that time frame. (think of the impact of jackson and Picket).

BUT if we are sh*&# again next year and we lose either or both and we decide to rebuild then we're a year ahead of schedule - especially with Caleb, Kolt and Jeffo.

The AFL is misguided if they think that extending the cut-off time to 7.30 is great tv. Watching officials sitting around is not gripping viewing.

What???  Its on the telly???  And there i was watching antiques roadshow...

My laptop is my telly. And antiques roadshow would have been more enjoyable.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
