I don’t like Maynard. But he’d be stiff to miss a grand final on that. The rules are predicated on players sacrificing themselves at the expense of their opponents though, so I suspect he may end up missing the grand final game (should the pies make it). The adjudicators make the rules though. They’ll eventually foot a very big bill in the future, as they have a league full of players they encourage to recklessly sacrifice their own health.

Norf will be silly to do that trade. Make WC sweat and call out Curtin. I think we should instead make a play for NOrf's 2nd pick Pick 2 for 5 and 15. is a fair trade. Norf end up getting Watson with 3, McKercher with 5, Sanders with 15 with  NGA. We can also throw in Tommo to give them KPD stock for 2024 to sweeten the deal. 

We either get Curtin or Reid. 

I agree. Pick 2 is Reid anyway. North know it and won’t trade it. WC won’t trade 1 as they’ll miss Curtain. I think Reid is inevitably off to North.

Reckon they'd want 1 + WCE 2nd rounder (about 22 or 23) for 2 + 3

North will just take 2, 3 to the draft.

A West Coast supporter just rung up SEN with a trade suggestion:

Pick 5 and JVR to West Coast for pick 1.

As a massive JVR fan. I still think we’d consider that. But respectfully decline. 

Just a great lead up. Beating Sydney at home, in a meaningless game. Really important we won this. 

6. ANB

5. Fritsch

4. Brayshaw

3. Petracca.

2. JVR

1. McVee

i know I’m probably missing an obvious one. Viney was good, Rivers ok.

Laurie massive

Dumb post. If course we want to win. We not paying trying to lose. Maybe some self preservation given we know our next game 

Our game style isn’t conducive to playing for dead games. But they way things are going this might zap our confidence

Insane to put Fritta back on…

Not really. He’s been out. Needs the run. If he can’t get back on his years done anyway.

Viney Petracca Oliver and Rivers have all lifted the last 5 mins.

Viney has, as he always does. 

Ahwell. We’ll definitely be underdogs against Collingwood- which is good 

Have to put Kosi in the middle. He could do as he pleases. Sydney mids have zero defensive pressure 

That’s a terrible 50

May paying zero respect to McLean.

I would too. He’s sh*t

This is perfect for us. Our mids are non existent today. Finally Sydney are punishing us.

We are in the box seat.

Brayshaw needed that

Some game Turner 

Turner is playing very well.

Likewise. The umpires’ darlings from 2016-2022. Had almost 50 more free kicks to their opposition in the 2016 finals series, the Grand Final itself being the tip of the iceberg, especially in the last half when the game was on the line. The one Premiership I genuinely look back at and think, that wasn’t just.

It was cheating 

We don’t need Grundy. We never did need Grundy. We sold him a vision, which both parties liked at the time. It didn’t pan out. Grundy won’t want to remain at our club, but will not hold any bad will towards us, as he agreed to the vision. It hasn’t worked out - that’s footy. Numerous teams not only need Grundy, but really want him. He will get to where he chooses to go. 

Might be wise to deal with North. Let WC take Reid should they wish. We need pick 2. That gives us leverage. Take either.

2 + 16 for 1? WC get Curtin and a bonus 1st rounder (Port's)

We could come in and top that. If we can get GC pick. We’d have to pay massive overs, and get something back.
