Neitz the Great

Saw him getting on the plane in the MFC instagram

Could be a bit of 'draft play' as well with clubs potentially taking NGA players they rate a little bit higher to ensure they have the only access and don't have to 'bid' on them. Wouldn't be surprised if a team had say picks 16 + 22 that they would take an NGA player at 16 just to make sure they nabbed them

I live on Vulture street in Brisbane. I sure as hell ain’t supporting those lions tho! Go Dees ❤️?

Darwin/NT would be locking borders shut. Will say our game next week will be moved to the gabba/alternate place.

Care to elaborate?

Can I ask what your avatar photo is?

Great post, Never. The fact that she has not made any decisions or announcements, got chosen for the job due to her outstanding qualifications and is already getting shut down in a forum based on her desire to increase gender representation in business...which she would understand how hard it is to get to because she's a woman, shows just how much harder it is to be a woman in a male dominated environment. I hope she does well in the role as I love this club and wants the best, but her success or not will not be based on her gender.

That would be my guess. Jonesy’s 300th and BBB. Would be huge.

I know BBB and the Weid were supposed to start training today. Anyone manage to get down?

Horrifying if he doesn't re sign

Any ideas what we would have to give up to get Smith? ...And any clue on the second player?

His durability actually isn’t that bad though. 10/17 -20 24-19 17 -18 21,22,21 years before that

Honestly either enjoy the fun rumours on this thread (which may or may not be true) but some people have a good record, or just don’t come to the thread. You’re not held with a gun to your head, if you don’t care about it just don’t bother coming here and give everyone else a break.

Love the man and has been an amazing serviceman of our club, but it is clear his time is coming to an end so if it sures up his career than I would shake the man's hand and say all the best. Also frees up a rumoured $500k for next year which would be handy!

The Jesse Hogan rumours

Any further news on those JH rumours??

I'm happy to volunteer...might have to get channel 7 to give me a sound effects mic

On my count we have 4-5 best 22 players and they have 13-14 so it will be a bit of a flogging me thinks

Was confused RE the Hore situation. Would’ve thought he would be a good third tall option with lever and may. Anyone with any info?

From our best 26 missing I would say it's only: - May - Brayshaw - Gawn -Hore -Petty Other notable absentees: - KK - Hannan - Hunt

Also, afl rules state that you can't have a pick swap with a huge differential of points or something to stop something like that happening.

I don't think we have made it known, but I think GWS are basically saying if it came to it, they would take Jackson over Greene

Personally I think we could trade 8 for freo's 10 + 22 allowing them a boost up the order before a Henry bid. Then I would trade 10 for 15 + 20 from the suns as it is clear they want another top 10 pick as they might not even be able to use pick 20 due to list space. Would leave us with picks 3, 15, 20, 22 = essentially 4 top 20 picks It would be 8 for 15, 20, 22.

At the end of the day if we lock down a solid deal with Geelong that we think is fair then we can wait until it is time for us to call out pick 8 on draft night and see if the deal still suits us. For example, if on the night somehow young or Flanders slips to 8 and we are really interested in them then we say no to the deal and take them. If there is no one we rate head and shoulders above the rest anymore then we do the deal. Ball is firmly in our court and I only see positives for this. We hold all the cards

If we were looking at the likes of weight man, Pickett, Gould types we could potentially do 8 for 10 + 22 from freo and then trade 10 for 15 + 20 from the suns as apparently they want another top 10 as they might not even be able to use pick 20 which would give us 3, 15, 20, 22 so effectively 3 first rounds and one really early second.
