Brown plays his 150th vs his old club this week. Melksham plays his 200th in a home game at the MCG next week. Neat. -
JVR one-handed marking, wearing 21 in a recent video

From the training pictures: 22: Howes 27: Dunstan? 41: Moniz-Wakefield That leaves 2, 21, 39, 40, 43 free for JVR, Woewodin and McVee. I wouldn't mind seeing Woey in #2

Good chance to really own some teams: the Dogs R1, Geelong, Port, Brisbane, West Coast away. We can win all of them and really get in their heads.

There's a pretty high correlation between the two measures in the top 9 which is not surprising and all but St.Kilda and Richmond played finals in 2021 - worrying for St.Kilda, the Tigers can safely reminisce about their flags. Correlation goes a bit haywire in the bottom 9. I think intuitively it's better to be placed higher on games accrued than age because it could indicate that you've got more experience into a younger list. If that's correct then things look surprisingly positive for Hawthorn and Collingwood. Less so for GWS, Carlton and Essendon, but then two of them did play finals last year so let's say: less so for Carlton. Therefore it looks least promising for St.Kilda and Carlton to me - no real news there ...

That's definitely going for it!

From the Monday 6/12 training video it looks maybe like 22 Howes, 27 Dunstan and 41 Moniz-Wakefield

Thanks @Lucifers Hero - tremendous work! I'm speculating that Hunt and Weideman will be Unrestricted FA because I think they are unlikely to be in the top 25% of salary. As you say, it's hard to tell whether Brayshaw would be in the top 10 money earners or not - I think he's be right on the cusp. It's probably interesting too whether say Petty would be RFA or UFA on the basis of his long-term contract. https://www.afl.com.au/news/579379/restricted-free-agents-unclear-as-afl-looks-at-contract-changes

Because we rated the flexibility of having an open list position higher than we rated them.

We've got picks until we fill our list or pass, we traded out the earlier picks for draft capital next year so we didn’t waste them this year.

@Whispering_Jack has done a great job of updating the draft selection to come after last night's events in the post pinned at the top of the board. I searched for this elsewhere and I couldn't readily find it. Our picks have become 38, 42 and 50. I think we're planning to take 2 more selections and one of them will probably be Taj Woewodin - so I think it would make sense to try to trade these three picks for two with one earlier than 38 and one later than 50. It's not clear looking at the draft order who would be interested and could do a deal like that. Maybe one of Geelong, Richmond or North who each have 3 picks before ours, but none of them seem to have picks later with points value in case we need them for TW. Maybe we could just trade 38 and 42 for one of their picks. The other option might be to get an extra future pick with 42.

Seriously ... https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/no-winner-s-speech-but-goodwin-admits-he-questioned-coaching-future-20210926-p58uvn.html “I would’ve said to the supporters and everyone at home, ‘this is us, this is who we are,’ and they should be so proud.”

I absolutely believe it's a genuine story and I guess that says "This is me!" just about as much a your post @Skuitalso says "This is me!"

"We sent a flood to drown 'em out" at the end of that GF 3rd quarter!
