My daughter is a tattooist. Ironically, I am anti tattoo - don't have any, but I do know she is a very talented artist and someone you would trust with your life. Works for a high profile tattoo parlour in Vic. If you are serious, DM me and I'll pass on details.

Worst idea......EVER! Melbourne's answer to the Berlin Wall. Mr McGuire, tear down this wall!

Not sure if everyone is aware but we can follow this game on AFL website/app live showing score and player stats.

No reasonable thinking person would have taken offence TJ6

The exception that everyone looks good in a Melbourne jumper ?

Has a milestone coming up some time next year - maybe. 100 career possessions. No thanks.

Briefly, started off describing us as Swiss cheese. Lots of holes. Often contradicted his concerns eg not much in way of very young players but loves Kozzy, Jackson and Rivers. Also said our on-ballers are pretty young. Feels we need more run from half back and said he thought Salem would be a better player than he is. Thinks we need more depth in key position back - too reliant on May but did concede Lever was better this year. Said we need to get a back up ruck to replace Pruess. Thinks Brown is a very good get. Earlier he said we should seriously consider Magpies fire sale players especially Treloar as well as Phillips. Thinks Adam would be perfect for us.

We have already secured a 60 goal a year forward on the cheap and the Trade Period STARTS tomorrow, where we have a good record in recent years.

It seems Covid and isolation issues have tipped some clubs and players over the edge. We have already benefited with Brown and one club will with Treloar. Other moves happening I'm sure can be linked also. Clubs that come out in front at the end of trade may well be the ones that that are best managed. Players from all clubs talked with each other more than ever this year in the hub environment so the perceived pecking order of 'destination' clubs may be changing. It's a new world.

Feel exactly the same. Only difference being I'd try to keep all 2021 picks if possible. This years draft is very compromised by the high number of Academy, Father/Son and every other draft lurk going. Next year not so, and there will be a whole bunch of kids unseen this year that would have rocketed up the order given the chance to play. So some extra gems in what has already been described as (yeah, I know) a great crop.

But Cameron will probably cost them 2. It seemed a perfect opportunity to get 3 very good kids and start planning for the next 12 years instead of 12 months.

His next move will be back to WA.

Geelong's response to having the oldest ever side to play in AFL history is to chase 2 x 32yo's from other clubs and potentially losing young players like Jordan Clark! I can see them dropping quickly - starting next year.

The Highway from Hell would have been better. Doesn't indicate we have got anywhere yet but we know what we want to leave behind.

I have no doubt Collingwood are looking bigger picture with Nev. There is no more respected player on our list. He has been a fantastic player for us, giving everything on the field every week for many years. Even more importantly, he is a marvellous human being. His off field work has been acknowledged by the club and AFL for years and will be his legacy long after he stops playing. Collingwood know this. They also know their history with indigenous and coloured players in general over the years has been abysmal. Eg, Winmar, Long, Lumumba, Goodes etc. The only way to change is from within. Cross cultural training can only achieve so much, and this starts at the top. Nev is already a legend in my eyes. I want him to stay. But if he feels and sees the difference that he can make at another club will improve things there and in the AFL in general then all power to him.

Yeah, we do so well out of these deals with Collingwood. Remember Kennedy and Lumumber? That said - I'd take Mihocek.

Always liked him and felt he was undervalued by our club and supporters at times. Wish him well

North is toxic at the moment. We are in a position to benefit from a fire sale with him and possibly Brown. They are not wanted anyway. Opportunities like these rarely occur in AFL when it's because a club is imploding. I assume we are doing due diligence (quickly) and hope we're not inventing reasons to not pursue.

Fritsch makes us top heavy?? ?

Tom Morris said he 'sooked it up about finishing 5th in B & F. Clarry believes he should have finished higher. I have to admit so do I, but I have no idea if Tom is on the money.

I may have the answer

You do understand this is a supporter forum where we can express hopes, opinions, preferences, guesses etc. If you only want facts before the general public knows you will be forever disappointed.

No, unfortunately. Love to be wrong 'cause I backed him at $100 back in March.

Because of him I went from a supporter to a 42 year member. Still my favourite ever - I don't think that will ever change. A true artist of the game
