2019 Fixture
What does it tell you? That the NT is further away? How many games does NM and Haw play down there? Twice as many as us - 4. What do we know that they don't. And selling souls is a bit much - that Alice game was pretty life and club affirming from all reports - I don't think it is endangering the club to play these games up north.

Yeah, it’s a hard draw. Good thing we are a great team...

Random saving fact for that draft - we got Harmes with the second pick in the Rookie Draft.

Also, this was the draft between two eras; the Toumpas/Scully/Trengove/Watts/Morton with top 4 picks in the six drafts previous versus Petracca/Brayshaw/Oliver in the top 4 in the five drafts since If top 12 add: (Clark trade)/Cook/Gysberts versus Weideman/(Weideman/Oliver trade - 2016)/(Lever trade - 2017) If top 20 add: Tapscott/Blease/Strauss/Grimes versus (Lever trade - 2018)

It's the fatalist in me that makes me so at peace with that trade - if we hadn't made the Salem/(Preuss)/Hunt 'blunder' we would have made the Billings blunder. It was the best of all possible blunders...

The alternate reality is not Kelly. It is Billings. I prefer our current reality with Salem and Preuss...

Farewell Jesse Hogan
This is where you lose me. It isn't a fact. We traded him out, we actively sought another player knowing we would use what we got for Hogan to source that player. Now there are whispers to the contrary of your whispers. You should be more equivocal with your 'inside knowledge' if indeed you have that inside knowledge. Because it sounds like you are not told much of the truth. I told you I believed my lying eyes and my lying eyes were right. And that is a fact.

Maybe. We've got a star tall defender and a best 22 winger out of our loot - can't tell you what BL and GWS get out of theirs...

He’s still working out who the muppets are around here, apparently...

Farewell Jesse Hogan
Observable reality (if you’re smart enough) screamed that we came into this trade period ready to trade out Hogan and move on May. The fact that Mahoney inelegantly admitted that we won’t get May if Hogan isn’t traded revealed how desperate we were to send Hogan to Fremantle; we were actively recruiting a player with the riches from trading Hogan. ! Its a maths equation: x requires y and we want x, so y has to happen and did happen.

I’m interested to hear what the reaction is at the G for the inevitable game we play against them next year. Will we boo him? Nuff nuffs? What do you reckon?

Farewell Jesse Hogan
Goodwin and co sure do seem ‘ecstatic’ for Hogan to be playing in the backline for the Dees in 2019... I’m with GNF, let’s see how it goes...

PICKS # 26 & 31 (formerly # 23 & 28)
- WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BRAYDON PREUSS
I think we will give Preuss FF a go with the 6-6-6. Someone has to start in the square. Having Weideman, T Mac, Melksham, Petracca and Spargo/Fritsch/Hannan/Garlett seems pretty appetising for our midfield to hit up with no intercepting loose players...- Farewell Jesse Hogan
Yeah, the inference is that we will get him back cheaply in a couple years when Lyon has his way and he becomes a ‘turn croad’ ...- WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - KADE KOLODJASHNIJ
It’s obvious this is designed to attack the need that the Gaff chase was to address. He definitely has a role in the best 22 if he can get fit - beautiful kick. Basically replace Tyson/Jones kicking into the forward line with KK/Salem and we are a lot better. - WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BRAYDON PREUSS
