What is the official date of picking a senior coach?

The Dees to delist 9 just ask Dan !!!!

We have O.Berry listed as a Rookie B player. Never heard of him , can someone tell me why he is listed?

Heath should be a better pick up than R.Marshall due to his age. We need ruckmen who can play forward and therefore is capable of kicking goals. Sadly we miss Luke Jackson. Perhaps Kalani White will becomes the new messiah. Where does that leave Verrel ?

He might be the new J.Smith , a medium forward capable of kicking goals.

Dar perhaps the fact we were chasing Wade as a forward last year is we don't have any tall forwards. This has been a problem for years.

I would imagine our primary interest in Wade is as a forward , yes it is a a bonus he can play defence. We also have Kentfield who can play both ends. Our reserve side played extremely well without Jefferson. In hindsight I believe that Jefferson will unfortunately be traded.

By getting Derksen will spell the end of Jefferson.

Perhaps we can swap Jack Petruccelle ( W.Coast) for Laurie.

Would not be surprised Oliver will end up at Richmond . Rich. gets Oliver plus our 2 nd ,Melb gets pick 3 and rich 4 th rounder. North will get Lever for their 2nd rounder min plus a 3rd rounder. Essendon will get Fritsch and possibly Jefferson and our 2nd rounder via Nth plus Ess. pick 7 and a 4th rounder. Laurie might be used as steak Knives. Melb might get L.J or Freo's Darcy for pick 7. Hopefully we can make a play for Port's Georg... 2x 2nd rounder and a future 2 nd rounder. All of the above are on my WISH LIST.

If a player is out of contact you may end up with no trade picks unless the out of contract player decides that. LJ was out of contract however he decided we should get some form of compensation from Freo. Leigh Mathews wasn't paid over a million dollars per year.

We should have played Kentfield or play May as a F.F , we had nothing to lose. Paying overs for Picket is a joke , he could suffer from a mental or physical health injury early and we still have to pay. Yes I know anyone could get injured. For his huge way I would expect him to kick 3 goals per week. His role is a midfielder (not in the elite class ) and a small forward who does not kick a load of goals. Gawn is an elite tap ruckman who the opposition constantly feeds off . He seldom kicks goals . We have lots of players who have gone backwards over the past years. Who goes Fritsch (for currency), the Bombers will take him , Oliver ,Sparrow ,Jefferson (given opportunities ) , Lever , May , Fullarton and perhaps Laurie.

We have to pick assistant coaches by end of August and yet we are picking our head coach in September, our so weird. Me thinks we have already picked the head guy and are showing to supporters that by setting up a selection panel we will appease supporters. Have any of the coaching selection panel ever coached a team to a flag?

Did we beat the hawks last week ,is that why there is no change this week. Kentfield and Adams your'e lucky that you are going to be part of the slaughter match. All up and coming players should request a trade next year whilst they still have their sanity left. This club is pathetic, it is like Goody is still coaching the rubble. Essendon will be very happy that we have gifted them an early draft pick.

The Dees don't do left field stuff , not in the coaches DNA. This match is like the Killer Whales chasing the fairy penguin. The teams that cares v the team that has checked out. I am hoping that I am wrong.
