The Importance of Jordan Lewis
I think so. The suspension probably cost us a game that he could of helped us win, aside from that he has been as good as advertised.

The Importance of Jordan Lewis
Lewis has been ok so far. My concern is that I can't see him playing out that 3 year contract in the 1s. He is an automatic selection this season, but with a fit and developing list he is going to be pushed for games next season. As for the season after....he will be like Garland. On the list but playing in the twos as depth to cover injuries.

Jeff 'Wiz' Farmer
Interesting. From memory one of his sons is about 14 and is a prospect (Kobe?), certainly helps father son nominations if he is down here with dad. Loved the Wiz, wish he had never left.

Time to show Oscar some respect!
Here is the thing with Oscar: He just turned 21, was pick 53 in the draft and only has 26 games to his name. He is young, was never expected to set the world on fire and has limited experience at the top level. I think so far he has panned out just fine.

The Importance of Jordan Lewis
He didn't seem as hard around contests today. I wonder if he is carrying something. Hard to know the impact of leadership as armchair viewers, as bad as he was today I think his cool head would have been very handy today when the game was in the balance. We can revisit his form in a few rounds, today was just one to forget.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - MICHAEL HIBBERD
Wow. That's actually phenomenal! I hope he is brought up in all Australian talk leading in to voting.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - STEVEN MAY
We are getting slaughtered down back. May has to be a top priority going into trade week.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - MICHAEL HIBBERD
Has played 4 games and has probably been in the top 3 players on the ground in 3 of them! Been an absolute steal.

Norf will offer him stupid dollars. We are back of the field in this race. He would be a great get.

The Petracca v McCartin debate reprised
If you google "Cale Morton" the third auto response is "running away".....

The Petracca v McCartin debate reprised
I think he still holds the AFL record for running away from a fight in an AFL game....

Pull the trade Lever!

The Petracca v McCartin debate reprised
Paddy could end up being an All Australian forward, but Petracca is next level. He has the same mystique about him that O'meara had before he had all of those injuries. Paddy will be a very good player, Petracca could be something very special.

Clarence Oliver
I wish Clarry moved like shinkansen! I have him more in the "James" from Thomas the tank engine category. More of a solid worker than a jet.

Biggest rivalry?
Collingwood for me. We have 5 of our 12 flags against that mob. Not only that, but that rivalry was once the white v blue collar clubs back in the day. Amazing to think we are the battlers these days!

Josh Kelly
GWS will become a destination club for players wanting a flag. Last time I checked Kelly hadn't won a flag...he isn't heading anywhere anytime soon. Usual off season bull dust journalism

Kobe Farmer
The Wiz is one of my all time favourites growing up. To think my boy could grow up watching his boy in red and blue is special.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - MICHAEL HIBBERD
Just a side note, I expect Hibberd is around the 300-400k mark, so they might require another move also to free up space)
-
WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - MICHAEL HIBBERD
The longer the Jaeger deal drags on the cheaper Hibberd becomes. If GC and the hawks can't broker a deal, Jaeger goes into the PSD with a 700k price tag on his head. If Essendon want him, they need to have 700k in cap space. If the Jaeger negotiations break down Essendon will need to dump Hibberd to free up 700k for Jaeger. If they carry Hibberd they are less likely to be able to sign Jaeger. The dees are playing this very well.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - DECLAN KEILTY
Keilty was impressive for Casey in the games I got to see. At 21 yo he is the perfect rookie list candidate. It's a shame to hear we may have already passed on taking him.

Delistings
I'm starting to think his retirement would be a good thing. I feel for the guy but for me he is the odd man out with a developing back 6 and the addition of hibberd. I can't see him getting games in 2017 or 2018 ( if his contact is as long as suggested) unless we are crippled with injuries.
-
Ed Langdon
I haven't seen enough of him to be swayed either way. Averaging 16 disposals a game this year, and is only 20 years of age. If the price is right then why not.
