New Rules For AFL 2026 - All SEVEN of โem!
So a bloke is tackled and itโs in his best interest to not try to break the tackle? just stand there like a dead fish? Some of these changes are good but this is terrible. Viney will cost us 5 frees a game

Calling all pre-season track watchers ...
Thanks for that, great insights So the PA and CBA doesn't help players in this instance, just denies them access to the club, coaches and facilities while they do the running portion of preseason. Also makes it harder to keep tabs on the players that are likely to go off the rails without structure.

Calling all pre-season track watchers ...
True, but I reckon 3 months is too long away from the club. Must be hard for the players to maintain fitness without coaches and being at the club The PA should concentrate on fixing issues like clubs delisting players and rehiring them on the rookie list. My company can't sack permanent employees and rehire them as contractors (sorta similar example)

3 months off seems like a lot Would have been good to get a good 6 week block of training in before christmas. The season starts earlier every year so only 2 months and a bit post xmas to get a preseason in

List Rankings After the 2025 Trade Period
In what universe is Collingwood's list stronger than the Giants? Talent wise, it is not even close And the bombers better list than ours? Good grief!

AFL Draft 2025: Picks 7 & 8
It all comes down to how JT rates the top 10 (obviously) If the player expected to go at pick 3 is rated a future star and twice and promising as the player expected to go at pick 8, then of course we will package picks to move up the order But JTs ranking may be different to general opinion and pick 7 and 8 will still have the players he as targetted

Kozzi Pickett - Will he be an all time MFC great?
It is interesting where to play him. It's all about maximum impact Imo - Centre Bounces and then play him fwd of the ball and in space as much as possible. A kick or a handball off the pack I honestly think his best is ahead of him and he could kick 60 goals one season and still average 20 touches and go close in the brownlow. King, Chaps, Whelan and Co need to keep the environment strong that keeps him happy but he doesn't seem a prima donna to me.

Kozzi Pickett - Will he be an all time MFC great?
By the end of his contract, if Kozzi keeps up his games and goals to date he will have ~315 games and 560 goals (very rough calcs as 21 games per year/ 38 goals) We are witnessing potentially one of our best ever and we might not realise it until much later That would make him second on our all time goal kickers list And for those that say he will play midfield so won't score, he averaged his highest goals this season at 2 per game Sure he could get injured or move clubs but I am attempting a positive thread. (Wish me luck, tell my wife I love her!)

Welcome to Demonland: Jack Steele
Iโll admit I thought this was a strange call But iโm thinking this could be an excellent trade. Got a quality mid and leader for nothing. He polled 46 brownlow votes over 2 years so clearly has talent along with his grunt Love Langford and co learning off Steele and Viney rather than Clarry or Trac

AFL Draft 2025: Picks 7 & 8
Taylor will have his favourite 3-4 players from the top dozen and he they are going to go top 4, I wouldn't be surprised if try to package picks to get Richmond's pick 4 I don't care about points or pick value once we get the players we want

Oliver Green (father/son)
Too soon for another Oliver

Farewell Christian Petracca
Seeing some of Trac's highlights pop up on socials, it's obviously how much he has lost his real burst of speed from packs and long straight(-ish) kicking. He used to smash it 60m
