There’ll be no experimenting because Goodwin is trying to save his job. He needs wins. It’s why Oliver Petracca Viney and Pickett were the only midfield rotations (appallingly) last week. Grim

I hope you're right, its round 20 though, surely if he wanted to stay he would've just signed by now ?

Dockers

4th in the Coleman is a bust? More goals than Thilthorpe and Hogan is a bust?

Why tf would he do that

So i can't believe what Houston has to say, but can I believe what our own list manager says? Or because that doesn't fit your completely fabricated narrative, he must be lying as well? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKbKGPF4SzU&t=284s 4:15 .

Jeez the red and blue goggles are strong with this one. Pathetic actually.

Dan Houston avoided Melbourne De...Dan Houston avoided Melbourne Demons trade after reports... Straight from the horse’s mouth, but your ‘facts’ are that WE were the ones that pulled out? 😂

Can't believe there's still fans out there that think we were the ones that pulled out of the Houston deal. HE pulled out of it because we were looking like a complete basket case, that's a fact. I have no doubt that Lamb would've offloaded one if not two first rounders for him, it's what history suggests and how he rolls, he just wants to get the deal done.

Signed a 5 year deal in March

A contract would help

Xavier O’Halloran is a name that’s going under the radar, OOC, don’t mind him, would go past a few and boost midfield stocks

May Petty and Turner is a better mix in my opinion, don't think we'll have the courage to show Jake the door though

End of last year as well, looked totally lost in there, and yet he’s complaining about his ‘role’ this year? He’s in his 3rd year of senior footy, shouldn’t be complaining about anything, you’ve got to earn your stripes, we’re not exactly throwing Nick Daicos down there to play on the most dangerous smalls every week are we ? 😂🤦‍♂️

Yeh jeez poor kid, we picked him up in the rookie draft when no one else wanted him and gave him a chance to play AFL, what a letdown! He’s having a pretty ordinary year, just sign the two year deal and get on with it stop complaining

Might be true about Jake, wouldn’t mind if we parted ways, but Tom Morris also said this year that Petracca made an impromptu speech at the end of a game that was highly emotional and inspiring for teammates, which turned out to be completely bull [censored] so I’m taking his Melbourne ‘mail’ with a grain of salt 😂

Massive red flag with his body, but Mitch Lewis can play. 1.99 and 26, perfect fit for us next to JVR, wouldn’t cost too much, but can he get on the park ?

The pick swap that landed us our 2020 first rounders was done a month before the draft, there’s no way we would’ve known that that pick, in one of the most speculative drafts in history (COVID) was going to land us Max Holmes. It’s not as if we swapped picks on the night because he was still on the board, we would’ve had multiple options at those picks, not all in on Holmes.

I don’t buy the narrative that we traded up specifically for Kolt. I think we just tried to get as high up the board as possible and see what happens, we do it every year, the problem is there was no talent there, why couldn’t we identify that? Such a waste of picks by doing so. We did the same in 2020 as well, offloaded a future first in a terrible draft for another first round pick in Bailey Laurie. Strange tactic, get better at seeing if it’s worth it or not.

Windsor looks pretty poor ‘inside’ at Casey

Kentfield for Jefferson

He’s amusing because he’s always wrong

You really think Tim Lamb just trades away our second and third rounders to move up the board without asking? It’s probably Jason Taylor’s strategy, clearly prefers getting two picks in the first round than spreading them across the second and third, he’s the one that knows what talent is there, ridiculous that you’d think he’d not be part of this planning, and that we just ‘don’t trust him’.

Leaning towards overrated. Out of contract this year, wouldn’t hate a change. Since 2020, extremely hit and miss if you care to have a look. Four first round picks in Laurie, JVR, Jefferson and Tholstrup that are having no impact. Howes, Woewodin, Adams more that are looking average. Windsor may have been too far of a reach. This whole strategy of getting rid of all your second / third round picks to move up a couple spots in the first round is really hurting us, it’s not paying off, no depth when we need a quantity of good young players. He’s paid the big bucks, landing a Joel Freijah type at pick 45 or Logan Morris at 31 is what can see a team rise, more of this and less of being so obsessed with trading future firsts, time to earn your pay packet JT
