In the NHL it's called 'Future Considerations'

The idea that we would trade a first round pick just to get his salary off the books is ludicrous. Even when that regularly happens innthe NHL, it's generally a third round pick which equates to pick 100. Imagine trading Oliver and not having a first round pick to bring in to replace him

Just watching the replay. It's obvious the umps gave a bit of leniency early on based on the weather. And we had a number of calls go our way, including TMacs spoil on Langdon. On the weather, it looks like we have finally stopped trying to handball our way in wet weather. The number of times they just hacked it forward off the ground when needed was actually good to see. The kids aren't just alright, they are seriously tough. Melky just wins so many important 1 on 1s. Loved McVee toweling up Stringer, and May getting into him when he tried the don't argue. Langdon's running is unbelievable. Imagine running nearly 16km (🤮) and having a guys say 'Nah, I think I'll run another 2km.'

Isn't he CEO? I'd think Dean Cox

Especially funny to see Reid pull Max onto himself when on the ground. Only one way that's gonna go with a guy as big as Max

A few had down days based on those stats. Understand Laurie played a half, but Sestan and K Brown didn't get much of it either.

Pretty sure the fact Woey is named on the ground means he won't be sub. My guess is Kolt, and Woey subbed off

If Petty is fit, they'll probably want to see what inserting Melksham into the forward line does before picking Jeffo

Yep, and I think he was expecting McCluggage to put more body on. Smart of Hugh not to.

Billings is not even a good VFL player

I know it's wet, but to be 10 points up with 10 more scoring shots is criminal. Surely Choco moves on at the end of the year

Tommo needs to stay in with an Eagles fwd line of Darling, Allen and Waterman. Lever can't play on either of them, more likely to play on Cripps

No way would you bring Jefferson in to play against Barrass and McGovern. And against a team who showed us up last time we played them

Is something happening or they just had other commitments?

Not sure this rationale stacks up anymore. If he was the difference between winning and losing, it makes sense to keep playing him. But given where we have been for the last month, if he was so impacted he should have had a rest to get right for the last half of the season

The problem with bringing Sestan and Tholstrup in is that they won't be played in the midfield, where we really need an influx of ball winning ability. Odds are they'll come in to cover our fwds going in there, like ANB and Kozzie. Then they'll be victims of our current inability to generate I50s and will be out after a couple of low possession weeks. If they come in, they need to be given a good chance to get involved

Ah, sorry. You said Trac's insta feed, which is where I'd looked.

It's gone now, I wonder if he was told to take it down by the club. Doesn't really help the argument if he's overruling medical staff

Guarantee Maynard will get Coaches votes too. He's the only one who seemed to provide a response from the last game, and it was to [censored] us over again

I'm not writing Clarry off. He is doing what he can off 2 weeks of preseason. He should never have played round 0, and probably should have had a good 4-6 weeks during the season to get himself fit. But the FD that itself when Gus was ruled out. If he gets a full preseason next year, and stay on the rails, he'll be ok. I'm more concerned about some of our older players. TMac has been good but will have zero interest in going again if we are [censored]. May looks like the end is near, and so does Viney. Those three out, plus Petty at the end of the year, and really no-one to replace them. Swallow hasn't come on, and Tholstrup is a while away, if he makes it. We are in a big hole and without our own 2nd rounder this year. It's going to be hard to rebuild quickly.

We don't. Or we shouldn't. And Richmond folks didn't either. We should be going for someone like Leppitsch, Josh Carr (if port don't sack Kenny), Ash Hansen or Stephen King.

Of course he does, initially. He and the drs do the fitness test, if he says he's right to go they'll put him back on.

We're done. We'll lose to North playing like this. Trac needs to realise he is no [censored] use to anyone when he can't play. Get off the ground. It's this selfish, messiah [censored] that shows the team isn't connected.

Game over. Uncontested marks in our D50. Pathetic

McQualter coming in has not helped at all. Trying to get our mids to play a game style they don't have the skills for. There's a reason Tiges fans were happy he didn't get the gig
