so...many...ads...

They've gotta pay for Purple waxing lyrical with little to no connection to reality somehow.

Just heard on SEN we’re sounding out Wade Derksen from GWS - don’t know much about him but they suggested he’s been the leading VFL goal kicker and keen to move back to Melbourne.

You don't want to know. We already have Fullarton and he's better.

We've been linked to him numerous times this year it seems, probably has legs.

Wade Derksen might be worth a look.  Kicked 36.11 in VFL 2023, seemed to play more midfield/HF this year based on his stats.

Last game in VFL this year was 25 touches, 12 marks, Goals 2.2

If he run and play in multiple positions he could be interesting. Zero chance to get in the Giants line up.

The Trade Radio panel opened proceedings today by trying to answer the three biggest questions ahead of what promises to be a busy trade period. 

• Damian Barrett expressed his feeling that Jake Stringer will find his way to the Magpies.

• Cal Twomey believes the Dockers in the best position to get at least one of Shai Bolton and Liam Baker if not both as they have a full hand of three first-round picks to offer the Tigers.

• Riley Beveridge says the Saints are out of the mix for Dan Houston leaving three options -

(a) the Blues but they don’t want to give up Pick 11, 

(b) the Bulldogs don’t have a first-round pick but will probably get back into this year’s draft through Bailey Smith, and

(c) Collingwood also don’t have a first-round pick.

Twomey added that there’s still a possibility he stays at Port.

Thanks for sharing. Incredible insight provided there on Trade Radio... Another 4 weeks of this dribble!

Is Damien Barrett just a poorly configured AI bot?

    IN FRONT by Meggs

    In this must-win clash between Melbourne 11th on the ladder and St Kilda 8th, it was the Demons who were in front all day to win in a hard-fought Round 8 clash to make it three in a row to keep theit slim finals chances alive. A good crowd of enthusiastic footy families for week 2 of Pride Round had gathered.  The full pews in the well-appointed RSEA Park grandstand provided excellent viewing.   The Saints won the toss and elected to kick to the southern end favoured by a strong 2-3 g

    THE TRADING CHRONICLES 02

    Part 2: Watching grass grow by Whispering Jack Critics of test cricket (and I’m not one of them) will often claim the sport is excruciatingly boring: that following a five day match is much like watching grass grow. However, the longest form of that game has nothing on the first week of the AFL trade period when it comes to inducing sleep among those in the football public who follows this process in its somnolent moments. The week gone by has been no exception. Only two player trades

    THE CAVALRY ARRIVES by Meggs

    The injury plague which has beset the Demons 2024 campaign is finally starting to dissipate and with consecutive wins over GWS Giants and a 2-point nail-biter in Adelade, a sense of optimism is rising.  Some commentators are now asking whether the Dees can make finals? A huge surprise with team selection this week when it was announced that champs Olivia Purcell, Paxy Paxman and Eden Zanker would play.   Hallelujah!  The cavalry has arrived. St Kilda missed the finals last season on pe

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised
