This girl's in her bedroom, she's not doing any work
She's fooling with the draft points, she's going berserk
One hand a vape resting on the window, the other one keys AFL trade radio
I dig the talkback, but Purple drives her nuts
Day time, Cal's fine, no ifs or buts
It's all so tragic but thereโ€™s still some fun
If you don't pay too much attention. I say
Who listens to Trade Radio?
Who listens to Trade Radio?
Who listens to Trade Radio?
That's what I'd like to know
Who listens to Trade Radio.

At least you kept it in sports.

    Well, apart from announcing half a dozen of the free agents who moved clubs today, Trade Radio produced a lot of speculation and idle chatter and once again, little of substance.ย 

    FWIW, given that heโ€™s been mentioned in dispatches as having attracted some interest from Melbourne, it has been reported by Tom Morris thatย no one is considering Matthew Owies at the moment.ย 

    And thatโ€™s the Trade Radio News for the day.

    Only thingย non-stopย is the incessant advertising. During the one hour soak, wash, rinse, spin, repeat cycle of ย โ€˜the showโ€™. The presenters, after product promos need to come up with roughly ten minutes of spoken words each. Set the time delay dial to next Wednesday.

    We rightfully had a crack at Peatling and missed.

    Perryman is going to be paid $900k at the Pies.

    Cummings a 6 year deal at the Crows.

    Battle enough contract to trigger the highest draft compensation.

    Houston if we were still in it would be costing us pick 5ย 

    Baker and Bolton we are in the wrong state to entice.

    Noble and Rioli first round picks.

    Haynes, Darling, Parker passed well passed their best and would require good $$ multi year retirement deals.

    Some times the best list management is the one that does little.ย

    Your last sentence is where we've gone wrong over the past couple of years. Acquired players during trade week simply because they were available at a discount, and not because they were the right fit.

    We missed out on our targeted players in Houston and Peatling, so aside from Derksen, it's time to shut up shop.

    Which of the above deals I mentioned would you do?

    Remind me your thoughts on Fullerton and Billingโ€™s deals where you could argue we just did something?ย

    I donโ€™t think I am foolhardy for thinking that with improvement from youngsters like JVR, Windsor, Kolt, Jeffo , Verrall etc and fit Clarry, Tracc, May, Lever, Bowey etc, and the addition of a couple of really talented draftees, that we will improve on the side that lost by under a goal, to 4 of the top 5 teams, including the Premier at home in the last kick of the game.

    We will get far more from a good injury run and a player buy in on reverting to that selfless team game, than we will get from a couple of overpriced good players that are really just coming for money or a super payout.

    At this point I hope we don't trade anyone in.ย  Anyone good would require our pick 5

    I prefer to hit this draft hard. More of Kozzi/Rivers/Windsor to rejuvenate the team

    • 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 Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™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 isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™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. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™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 wasnโ€™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 ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
