Deelectable

Just wondering. With the apparent mass exodus of Richmond players it would appear that Baker and Bolton would garner Band one compensation. If Richmond lose today and likely finish last does this mean that they will secure picks 1, 2 & 3 in the draft? (exempting Ashcroft). I sincerely hope not!

Love to know how the statistician came up with 25 taps for Fullarton. I must have been watching another game.

Agree that it is highly unlikely they'll let him go but that contract I'd do in a heartbeat. Exactly what we need and in time with the CBA that won't be a huge number. If we can I'd offer more.

Needs another turnover of assistant coaches and other back room staff. Think it will happen. Probably time to move on from Williams and Stafford for starters.

We kicked accurately for goal.😃

Snap!

Hard to see us finishing above 13th. Given that I hope the Saints somehow go past us. With Josh Battle likely off to the Hawks good chance StKilda will get Band one compensation putting us two spots further back in the draft. Can't do anything about the Tige's.

Some on this site thought we were hopeful we would still make finals and a good chance to do so. Delusional on both fronts. Horrible season laced with loads of ill fortune. We we're never winning it tonight nor making the 8. Thank God we haven't! So many injured and struggling. Finish the season early and go again. Viney seemingly needs shoulder surgery, May and Gawn should be put in cotton wool. Suns win tonight and we're down to 13th. Top 8 draft pick. Early finish. Nothing guaranteed but a strong October trade and draft period coupled with a an earlier pre season with fitter players and things could look a whole lot different.

Yes we are banged up and it has been the season from hell for a number of reasons. Just a reminder that the Dogs are the form team in the league atm and destroyed the Cats and Swans in the last two weeks. Perspective.

Declase showed more than Kentfield.

Gawn and Viney carrying injuries. Should not be playing. No pre season has caught up with Clarry. I wouldn't play any of them again this season given the near certainty we miss finals.

Absurd given perfect conditions at Marvel. Really have no idea why Woewodin is in the starting line-up.

Sincerely hoping not!

Please debut Jefferson against Port next week.🙏

How many of those are at centre bounces? When against Smith it's a non contest. He is beaten most weeks by VFL ruckmen.

Fullarton good around the ground but in 50/50 ruck contests getting mauled by Lachie Smith.

Just trying to work out the logic of playing Schache, Brown, Jefferson and Kentfield forward in these conditions. If Hunter is given a game to get his 200th it will be a gift. Ordinary and unaccountable.

Same old windswept Whitten Oval. Great surface but for as long as I can remember games badly affected by a howling gale. Good luck to those in attendance.

Surely Jack Macrae is worth a thought. Accumulator and good user. Second rounder and they can pay some of his contract.

According to numerous phantom drafts top 10 picks 'midfield heavy'. What we need . Not so the next 11-20.

Yep. Multiple top line midfielders in the top 10 in the draft. Houston is a top player but at 27 and on big coin off half back no thanks.

Houston has emphatically stated he's going nowhere.

Mathematically we can make the 8. That's all. We won't. Bulldogs will put an end to it this week anyway. Cal Twomey is the draft guru and one of the best judges going around. In his latest article he is suggesting that any of the top 8 picks in the draft could be considered number one. Given that is the case the lower we finish the better. May be unpalatable to some but that is the reality. Remain competitive like Saturday night and that'll do. Send blokes off for early surgeries. Rest veterans. Blood Jefferson. Look forward to earlier and longer break. Salivate over a potentially exciting October. Go again next year. Go Demons!

Well said mate and spot on. Pity our recalcitrant 'friend' doesn't have your insight.

You failed plasticine buddy.
