Travy14

He is a beast, and is a Midfield/Forward. Much like Petracca was in his early years, and he reminds me a lot of those type of players. Have watched a few of his games now, very different to his brother, who I also like. He will be the future of our midfield. Disclaimer - I was filthy when we selected Oliver over Parrish, so my opinion means nothing 😀

I Wonder if we have eyes on Duursma, which I hope we do

Only on here, GWS have said they can keep Hayes and will not trade 7 as a salary dump

It's also been said numerous times that GWS don't need to get him off the books. They can afford him, and won't be packaging a deal to ship him off. It is a lot owed to him but it's only for next year. After that he is off the books. (Out of contract) If a club has missed managed so bad that one player for one year has to get off the books they wouldn't be in the AFL.

Id love us to do that but it's very rare. Id love us just to say no thanks haha but someone sees something in him

Pick 46 for McAdam it is then

I hope there is more picks involved in this trade

Id be interested yes, we would have to offer up more but yeh good trade

Yeh agree, would be very [censored] off about that

Sydney now have the Roos assistance pick for next year, will be the end of the first round. Can we somehow get that for Grundy, might have to send a pick back in the deal?

Agree, Petty plays those finals and we would have been playing off in a GF. And we are every chance to get pick 11 as it is. Can't trade petty unless we get a good Key fwd in from somewhere. Petty will play fwd in 2024, then take over the May spot in 2025 after we land one of the Free agent key forwards available next yr. He is vital to our future, unless he is desperate to get home, we keep.

I have a Saints mate that recons Saints are willing to pay up to half his contract if it means the get a Second rounder for him. I was against billings but warming to the idea. Also no idea how accurate the salary thing is.

Yup the 100% are trying to have their cake and eat it too with Grundy and Adams. Agree they need Grundy more, feel sorry for JJ as Adams hurts his spot in the team a bit. Maybe we should ensure there is nothing left to get that deal done!

Sydney offered pick 46 for Grundy, I assume the Dees got up and walked out of the room laughing.

This Petty talk is making me a little nervous. Hope its all just SA media talk.

People think Fritsch is lazy in terms of def and chasing. Add Fog as well 😳

Yeh depth, he is a high half fwd type, so would have too push out ANB and Spargo. For the right price go for it, but not that super keen on it. The interest in him so far shows that clubs will look at him as an end of trade period thing once they know the list spots left.

Would it be silly to sign him for a year and then take him on as a fwd coach? I don't see him leaving Geel at all but would be more than happy to have a crack at him.

$650 for Grundy is a steal. We won't be paying any. We just got Harmes' 500k off the books so don't need to pay $$

I think it's so he definitely gets to his club of choice, but yeh Carlton won't be using that pick

F3rd sounds about right. Again shows roughly what McAdam is worth. Sad to see Harmsey in other colours but all the best to him, has been one of my favourite over the years.

Love Harmsey and wish him all the best, but: 1 - I hate Bevarage and the Dogs 2 - How does this make any sense for him. No more opportunities at the dogs is there?

Still need the list spot though. Id say McAdam is the coverage for Melk. Train on players are no good, they aren't good enough to be on lists, and if you can't make West Coast's list as a 23yo then I'd pass on that. Have a look at the other top 4 next in midfielders. Brisbane - Lyons, Matheson Coll - Lipinski, Knoble Port - Narkle, Boak These guys aren't Best 22 players but if needed are up to the standard to fill the rotation. Port are in a simmilar position to us and need more depth with Boak almost done and possibly Duursma out the door. Do we have any long term injuries atm? If we do then we could look at one of those SSP positions.

Thats what I meant, soz

Not too often top 4 sides select more than 3-4 players in the draft either. Think we are going hard for pick 10 too, which will soak up a couple of those picks
