Cheaters? 😂

Time for us to force them to WestCoast via the preseason draft 😤

I don't if that means being the golden child of the AFL and benefiting from so many hand overs.

Pre 2000 they were just another club in the league. 4 or 5 premierships in 100 years.

More like he only was willing to sign a 2 year. I am sure the club would offer 4 years of they truly believed he was a key piece of our future.

I hate agents! 😅😤

Keep the F/S but at the right price. Meaning, pay the [censored] draft pick that it actually is. If a F/S is a first pick then you,as a club, need to trade that first pick. Or not contend for it if can't pay for it.

Academies should not have any ties to the clubs. Period. Let the AFL run them and then those players enter the open draft market.

It would hurt but it's the right thing to do. The Academies need to follow suit, pronto!

Geelong, Colliwobbles 2.0 🤭 Honestly between Collingwood and Geelong they must have the most losses in GF and PF.

Apparently things are about to change, about time AFL!

Rather make it to the GF every 6 years but wining every time. Nothing beats the feeling of being the champions, no amount of minor premiers, top 4 or PF.

The media can be damned, from my part. I do think he would give us the supporters some reassurance and peace of mind if it came from him, we don't trust those media vultures anyway.

@Ghostwriter prime example here of media talking on Petraccas behalf. This is where it would be great if he came out and denied these fabrications.

Are they 3 to 4 years away? Trade future picks and senior players.

As if Faicos didn't get underserved votes. Glazing over their golden child 🤢🤢

It goes to show the general intelligence of the masses and the media 🫠

Melbourne 10th team with the most Brownlow votes. We definitely still have the individual talent to compete. Need King to instill a new system and desire in the playing group (and more cohesion).

High Floor and High Ceiling player for sure.

This is how it should be though. You are a top of the ladder team and want to draft in the top 5? Mate you need to pay. It was ridiculous how many clubs just had to bundle useless second round picks to be able to bid.

Well the landscape is a bit different today. Streaming makes it viable to watch games on demand and spoiler free. Add to that the fact that most immigrants these days are from countries where they don't even know the AFL exist, so how do you convert those new Australians into footy fanatics?

You'd think that in a very competitive landscape (easy access to international Sports) the AFL would prefer to grow the size of their market? Not just keep it stagnant? Reality is that, within two generations, the AFL is at risk of drying out the well of fortune.
