David Zaharakis. Let the other clubs sell their houses snaffling Fyfe, Dusty and the young brigade.

Yeah. Jaeger has been a bit of a plodder when he's been on the park.

Spelled backwards; t'norf

Garland, Trenners, Lumumba. Prob Peds. JKH if he can't get his body right. We've got a bit to clear before we start jettisoning the likes of ANB or Harmes and then Bugg, Kennedy and vandenBurg.

But thank god the rules loosened during our current admin. Imagine Prenders with futures in hand.

A pretty decent bottom end compared to what we had listed just three years ago. Is there a list-point that you have decent ready-made players that can step into the team that aren't worth replacing for spec development trades/picks? Bugg/Kennedy/Harmes/Vanders are pretty decent 25s-30s on a list even if they don't display much more improvement (which I all think can bar maybe Bugg).

Was Tram 73 a tad late today? You seem a little agitated.

Poetic to snag the man after giving up the pick he was selected with. Now if we can bag J.Kelly next year . . . although he seems to have stacked on a bit of weight in the off-season - https://www.google.com.au/search?q=josh+kelly+afl&client=firefox-b-ab&biw=1252&bih=582&source=lnms&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjm-6iE6OvPAhUK6GMKHbWmBaAQ_AUIBygA&dpr=1.09

Stretch?

Newton could probably consider himself unlucky in more ways than one. Might still be on the list if Lewis hadn't come knocking, with another season for things to finally click. As it stands, cut from two clubs - the first stacked in the midfield - for a handful of games and he probably won't get another look.

For whoever it is who is asking - I'm experiencing the same thing.

When was the last time we had a second-round selection (outside of JV)? Dawes, Vince, Frost, Lumumba, Hibberd . . . I think someone at the club has determined that the lottery starts after pick 10 and that there will be little difference in strike-rates between picks 20 and 60.

Seems a reasonable alibi.

ManDee - I'm not sure that just denying you're the Riddler is sufficient evidence in this climate of suspicion and uncertainty. By necessity, the onus of disproof is on you. Me? I went to a public school so there's absolutely no way I'm acquainted with anyone even mildly related to the MFC. Though I was chatting to a NMFC board member by chance last week . . .

The conspiracy goes all the way to the top

I don't normally take much from highlight packages but this kid has a very well weighted kick. Time after time. Floating 20m dinks might not look very glamorous but this is exactly what we need with our delivery to Hogan and Watts - so they're not continually stuck trying to offer them up to each other.

But any update on Christian's health issues? I wouldn't count your chickens just yet. # sorry dee-tox - beat me to it.

So in a bid to beat a confession from the source - clues to the Riddler’s identity . . . It could reasonably be assumed that the Riddler is not Jim Carrey. It might also be safe to assume that he’s an MFC fan and graces this site in another guise. A quick squiz of bomberblitz (shudder) confirms that there is no such Riddler riling up the Essendon fandom – although a question of complexity might be pointless over there. Is it Hird? Is it Hird? Is it Hird? The Riddler first surfaced in 2014. With a confident opening, I would suggest an active member who predates this time. He mentioned that the mystery player was from interstate. This may well have been a trap, but it may just rule out Chook in Perth and I think Crazy Jaeger O'Smearer. The Riddler previously said he had a link to an MFC board-member of 'two first names'. This may be completely fabricated of course - but be it Steven Morris or David Robb - let's surmise that the Riddler is acquainted and then of at least semi-mature years. This rules out 25% of Demonland. These following folk have checked out the Riddler's profile page in the past ten hours: Monoccular, Member's Wing, Redbeard, 45HG & CarntheDees. I also saw Nasher stalking the other day. This may be a decent alibi - or, alternatively, may suggest the sort of psychopath who gets their kicks from sticking around the scene of their crime. Indeed, I wouldn't be surprised if the Riddler has posted in this very thread in an attempt to throw off the scent . . .

They offloaded Vickery. Even if they had botched Prestia that would have been a win.

I was thinking more Buddy Franklin. But now that you mention it.

We picked up two best 22 players and lost none. We held onto all of our young prospects. We paid a mid-second-rounder. A clear win.

It consists of one digit.

Trade week is up. So enough of this fiddly forensic CSI b/s trying to uncover the AFL's mysterious butter-wing ocean-bandit. I say we instead switch to Sipowics beast-mode; unmask the Riddler and beat the answer out of him . . .

Or a bigger concern that not even SOS rates him enough for an invite to the reunion?

All this bickering is exactly what the Riddler wants. We must stand united.
