Steven Smith pulling the strings to get Fox in as CEO would be absolutely brilliant.

Yep either *that* way 😂 or an unfortunate injury (which hopefully doesn’t happen).

Our first call will be to Jack Henderson if *somehow* a list spot opens up.

Would love 10 (Gus) & 30 (ANB) to go to Langford and Lindsay. Two premiership heroes who have sadly departed but replaced by two young guns.

Max and Ed are in Qatar on a cycling trek.

Echo what Andy said about the photos. Bloody awesome. thanks to all for the reports too. Full squad back Monday, can’t wait!

Neither are a few others like Kozzy. Not required until Monday so let’s see then.

*this was not a shot at those players saying they won’t make it. far from it.* From previous posts all throughout this seasons I’m one of Jeffo’s biggest fans. My point purely was that we suddenly have plenty of options underneath the so called first choice of Roo/Fritta/Disco/Petty*

Haven’t misconstrued anything? Maybe you just misinterpreted my post lol I’m confident in a few of those guys to become regulars at AFL absolutely. reading back how worded it I can see how it’s been interpreted, I just meant suddenly we have a plethora of key position options all fighting for 3 spots. Am not, have not and will not ever question our recruiting department.

Fullarton back to training too? All happening at Goschs. Our Casey forward line suddenly looks stacked with Kentfield, Johnson, Fullarton, Jefferson, and Verrall (when Campbell is in the ruck) 😂

Lindsay is coming off a PCL so is probably a month or so off full training 👍🏼

Believe you can spend up to 5 years on the rookie list but still only 3 years as a category B. So when we pick Mentha we’ll have 36 senior listed, 6 cat A rookies and 1 cat b rookie (Mentha). hopefully our second cat b in the future can be an Irishman 😁

Johnson was drafted barely an hour ago and you’ve already got him as a potential delisting? You need a new hobby. not to mention a number of those blokes are contracted beyond next year🥱

Moniz-Wakefield had to be upgraded to a category A rookie after 3 years on the B list. We will pick Mentha as a cat b tomorrow. One category B spot left over.

This sounds good but it’s not reality. A bid would’ve come for Daicos if Collingwood had kept their pick. Just like if Brisbane had an early pick tonight someone would’ve bid on Ashcroft earlier to make them pay up. Sounds funny and all, but once those picks get traded in anticipation of matching with later picks, teams aren’t as fussed to bid.

The thought of that is a team would’ve bid on Kako if Essendon kept pick 9 but now because they traded it, teams don’t see the need. That’s the funny buggers teams usually play. Luckily this time it went to our advantage. We did have genuine interest in him though, it was just scuppered when they opened up the nga rules halfway through the season 🙄

If Melbourne want Chandler to go higher up the ground (potentially in an ANB role) , we know what Kozzy is like with his suspensions and his flirting with going home and our extreme interest in Nick Watson last year carried on to our big interest in Kako this year, Joe Berry makes a lot of sense. in JT we trust, right? 👍🏼

Just broke into a sweat at the thought of Berry at 9. Let Freo take him and we can get him back in a year when Kozzy requests a trade there🫣

Willem Duursma (eligible for next year likely top 5 pick) is who he was referring to. But yep, the name drop of Lindsay pricked my ears also.

In that scenario that means Tauru is available at pick 9 👀

Smillie for Melbourne? Nah.

Yes. The links and Armstrong talk has dropped off pretty quickly for a lot of clubs. Maybe it’s a tactic, but won’t be one of our picks (which I’m stoked about)

No way.

Armstrong is the slider. Cal has said a few times now he thinks he could get to Richmond’s picks near the 20’s. Interviewed poorly with numerous clubs.
