I hope we keep an SSP spot open till the eve of the season.

We have two list spots left: either both PL, RL or a 1-1 split.

This is what picks in 30s is for - injured players with leadership qualities that might have a higher ceiling and lower floor.

Lots of talent and all the best for him!

Just pondering why the club dosent seem to draft big power fwds, understanding we JVR & Miacheck but not convinced on Jefferson

Your question has the answer.

We picked up Jefferson based on (my opinion) us needing a tall forward and he being the ‘best of the lot’ at ND15 a few years ago.

You don’t push it with ‘needs’ at the draft.

Also good to confirm that we didn’t have a top ten pick after all.

Just want that stipulated for the record.

11 and 12.

Yeah, I’m particular and stubborn.

Have we met?

Add Steele, Viney, Rivers and Kozzie too.

We aren’t short of mids, we’re short of a cohesive midfield that has played many games together, to which, the only way to get that cohesion is for them to play together.

Yes, and in the case of Rivers - this Lindsay kid makes it even easier to keep Trent in the midfield.

Sparrow also would want more time in there - I am not the biggest fan as he is one dimensional but you need that dimension, it just tends to be for Viney or Steele.

Which brings us back to the point - we used Petracca’s value to replace Judd and to get Kade and Kozzie a friend in the forward line.

A fine way to spend picks just outside the top 10.

People thought we reached when we took Kysiah…

Just saying

Not just saying…

You’re quite brilliant sometimes you know?

“We really should have taken a midfielder we didn’t rate!!”

How many mids do we have to bloody take? Windsor, Lindsay, Langford, even some say Tholstrup is better as a mid.

??

Hahahahahahahahahahah

So now the player we shouldn’t ‘reach’ for might be taken just after our pick…

Huh? I can repeat what I said if you like - the trade was EFFECTIVELY McAdam for ANB. The same pick.

One was an incredibly durable and selfless premiership player, had played 180 games and had just finished 3rd in the best and fairest. He walked into his new club and was appointed vice captain within a month.

The other (who's actually older!) had played 50 games, never more than 15 in a season and was in and out of the team in a side that consistently finished in the bottom 6 in his time there.

Dress it up how you want, and I'm actually not a Tim Lamb basher, but that is an absolutely catastrophic trade result.

CATASTROPHIC.

When something actually bad happens - you have nowhere to go.

ANB was an excellent role player who wanted to leave for family reasons. The currency in question was ND25. It’s ridiculous to talk about the McAdam trade in such terms.

The same muppets on here saying we should use the F1 from GC in a trade this year for another pick in the teens will be the same that loudly whinge about not having the equivalent pick next year.

Interesting all the love on here for Culley. I think he's shown a couple of decent signs, and probably shoudn't have been delisted by West Coast, but I'd be very surprised if he's in our best 22 when we're challenging again.

If he plays a role

McAdam may be the nicest bloke in the world but right now the (effectively) McAdam for ANB trade goes down as one of the worst in AFL history.

I'd have thought he'd be absolutely bending over backwards trying to rectify that.

Hyperbole. It was a second rounder FCS

Looks a pretty good kick and has intensity in contests. Something there.

Bare. Minimum.

But we have been celebrating blokes doing that forever.

I think the reason they did that is because every time they posted AFLW related stuff on their regular Facebook page they got inundated with angry incel posts from misogynistic supporters say they don't want to see the content about women. Sad little men.....

If I was in the Dees admin and this happened - I would tell them to post more content from the women’s team.

If anyone who hasn’t seen Tayla Harris’ doco on Amazon Prime - check it out if you can - there is an extended scene about her watching the Dees flag in 2021 and what it means to her.

We are so far away from that being a reciprocal feeling at this club that it is not funny.

It’s infuriating.

WW, earlier today you commented that you wished you could post more pics, but you’d clearly run out of attachments allowance. Andy (Demonland) told you how to go about freeing up room for more pics by deleting previous pics. This is why your earlier pics have disappeared.

You do IT help too. Kicking goals everywhere

Why?

More so than Fitzroy? If you answer with the Brisbane Lions, you need to review Buffy the Vampie Slayer seasons 1 & 2.

Alright I reviewed those seasons. Xander had the hots for a bug lady, Willow becomes an actual ghost, Giles says we are all doomed, and Buffy having sex nearly ends the world.

I don’t get what you are saying. WHAT AM I MISSING

HELP ME UNDERSTAND

You watched it?!?

DD36 put it there as a jump scare

You weren’t supposed to click the link

It’s like knowing what happens with the Ark and then just popping the top off as soon as Indiana drops it off at the warehouse…

Brave win. Great win.

Hore is a Demon champion.

No idea where Melbourne supporters were. That’s a pathetic crowd. It’s hard not to scold.

We are not one club and you can treatise it all you like; I know what I call it.

Different team, different sex, different board, different crowds. Pathetic. Screed over.

So great to have Harris for another two years.

Zanker leaving is so huge. I hope we can get value.

Plenty of bad ideas in a brainstorm

It's farcical that a side finishing in the bottom half of the ladder gets to play finals. Did somebody say "tinpot"?

14th doesn’t get finals

He looks like his attributes won’t translate to afl in the way we would hope being a top ten pick. Although he has good agility he doesn’t look quick. The last thing I want is another good at vfl not quite afl player and that’s the vibe he’s giving me. Pickett seems a less polished player at this point but I think his ceiling would be higher and would come along better with the right development.

Good thing we don’t have a top 10 pick then
