This could equally happen if we or the dogs fall off a cliff to start next year. We will both get a harder draw next year based on where we finished. I reckon have a big game first round. The players won't be worried about facing a good team round 1 and supporters shouldn't worry if we lose the first one. We are past that now

His flexibility and ability below his knees for a big fella is elite and has noticebly improved over the last few years. I wonder how much effect Pilates have played in this improvement? Maybe he can open a Pilates studio for ruckman with his wife (who is a Pilates instructor) when he retires.

Any chance Josh Sinn will drop this far? Saw an article about him sliding due to injuries and covid lock down. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theage.com.au/sport/afl/on-the-slide-from-top-five-sinn-could-be-an-afl-draft-bargain-20211017-p590o3.html

Apparently Aus Post are cutting down on the scanning they do. Had a bottle of MFC 78° gin sit at 'Ready for processing' for a week and a half and was sure they had smashed it. Then went straight to 'On board for delivery'.

Don't forget that the number 1 pick also receives money from NAB. Ugle Hagan got it last year instead of Thilthorpe

Also, if you've pre-ordered anything you may not receive the rest of the order til that's ready to go. Ordered a beanie and stubby holder in addition to the premier's guernsey and all will ship together in mid-December.

Agree that he's worthy but hes currently locker mates with Gawny, don't think he'd want to change that to Mayzie and Salem. Don't mind the idea of Rivers. Keep the backline together.

I wouldn't rule out TMac. They might have some differences but I'm pretty sure he's sung BBB's praises before. And he would be in a good position to have seen Trac's development.

Dusty to full back? Not many options there...

joeboy is talking about the prints he is selling, not the balls Nixon has forged

Interesting comments from Cody Weightman here. Probably not what Doggies fans want to hear (which might be why it wasn't highlighted in the subsequent article on the doggies website). 'The Bulldogs had a much longer road to the Grand Final than eventual winners Melbourne, but Weightman doesn't believe it was the reason the Dogs lost so heavily. "The way we approach this will be interesting. I think we've got the group to go one better next year and I hope this can carry us further," he said. "It's hard to know. We've become so good at being resilient and copping whatever comes our way. It wasn't any different to what's happened in the past few years. I think Melbourne were just too good on the day, really, and whether we travelled or not, they probably still win that game, unfortunately."'

Mitchell, O'Meara. Who else could go?

I think Freo is pretty set on Carlton's pick 6. I'd be surprised if we could trump that

Only way other teams stand a chance is if we play 15 on the field. Who needs an onball brigade anyway?

With how this team has recruited, they could draft Paddy McCartin at 17 and I'd believe he'd come good...

One year clubs won't let us trade back in. But given how young our list is, and how many first rounders we've had in the last few years, I don't think it will matter too much if we miss out on the first round in a year or two

Looks like we are interested in GC's pick 19. https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/afl-trade-news-rumours-whispers-2021-trade-blog-and-live-chat-for-october-6-free-agency-trade-period-updates-news/news-story/ca59f89dc466fcc65f3085dbb1de06cb

I'd swap Gus and Fritta. Gus had a great year in his position, but I'm not sure he's 'A grade'. Bailey definitely is.

You'd think he'd get as much game time there as with us, given their list of small forwards. I wouldn't mind him staying but not too stressed if he goes either.

Don't mind keeping Melky on. Will be handy depth. Should Fritta or Spargs get injured, he can step straight in.

The cop probably said one planet was enough for the human race, no need to look for other inhabitable planets... Dogga couldn't believe it* (*as discussed on Gus And Gawny)

Hopefully we get in on this action. Move some picks back to next year, given we don't have any pressing needs that need to be covered this year https://www.sen.com.au/news/2021/10/02/report-how-pies-plan-to-land-picks-for-daicos-bid/ "Ryan believes the Magpies will look to hand over future picks for rivals’ second and third rounders this season to cover for Daicos."

That goal in the 3rd was of hardly one step. More like half a step. And it went 55m. Amazing

Tracc's match worn jumper up to $26k. Gus's only $11k
