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.

You would think North would threaten to take Curtin at 2/3, so our Pick 5/6 would be pretty useless to West Coast

Unless they are happy to overlook Curtain and take pick 5/6, and what else we can get.

No disrespect but why would we pay to have another club take him? Given he’s contracted we hold all the cards and, unlike the Pies last year, the club still sees the benefit of keeping the best back up ruckman in the game on the list (whereas the Pies wanted him gone)

I’m sure the club would try to do what’s best for all parties, but I highly doubt we’re going to pay part of his salary without receiving something substantial back the other way, either a player or higher pick - especially when there would be multiple clubs who would throw their hat in the ring to get him 

Because the money can be spent elsewhere. We don’t have a key forward, in hindsight, I’m sure we would’ve/should’ve, spent our money on that need. Why pay Grundy - a back up ruck on our list - 650k (1 mill) a year, when we will not utilize him? He’ll sit at Casey next year on 650k. The only reason he won’t is because he’ll request a trade, and we will honour that, as we know, if we don’t, we will be paying him 650k to play in our twos.
