Would help if they kicked it to Weid instead of in the air against 3.

Can’t win a stoppage but held them goalless.

Looking like a small crowd.

We owe Giants for last year.

I suspect that if it was just a 2 year extension it would have been done. I think we are looking at a longer period, if he is happy to stay.

Saturday night at the G this week.

A small difference is that the Ryder bump caused a concussion, forcing the player out of the game and missing probably this week at least, while Blakey got up from the English bump and played on.

That is why as a side issue, I want the Eagles to improve and finish mid ladder, so there is absolutely no risk of a pre season draft issue.

Do I hear $20 million for 10 years, the bid is with you?

This is why Josh Jenkins will never be in List Management.

Not yet.

Players in good clubs who can't get games, but play ok, are seen as targets by other clubs. Some of our boys not making it into the 22, will be seen by the club as tradeable. This improves ours draft position and helps add further layers of talent to the list, while giving the players the chance to play senior footy.

TBH I can’t see us beating them there, but hopefully I am wrong. We won the PF with Harris, Hanks, Hore , Scott and a few others playing terrible games. If these players play great footy and the rest lift, well who knows.

I don't think this is a "prediction". I think this is some inside knowledge. Also I don't think contract discussions are the same as CEO's predicting a bad season. How would he know how we would go in 2019? No one else did apparently.

Very inconsiderate of the boys. I hope you let them know. That Motlop got two two late rubbish goals off fumbles by us.

That's fine whatever you want to call it, my point is Weid stays in next week if you don't want to destroy him.

Disagree. They didn't show up at all. First goal from a doubtful free late in the third and then 3 junk goals when we had turned off.

That's how you destroy him. Brown in and Tom managed, giving Weid another crack. Weid just needs to get a few games and build confidence. He could have kicked 6 last week. Tom hasn't looked like that for quite a while. Our delivery into the forward line was poor last night and didn't help Weid.

That headline could promote a few contracts being completed sooner, rather than later.

Another 6 day break and have to travel as well, again.

And spraying most of them.

While not exactly the same type as Hibberd, Smith, who is playing well atm, is 6 years younger and 5 cms taller, with a bigger leap, is a better mark and probably just as quick.So do you keep putting the games into Smith, or bring Hibberd back. I would stick with Smith.

On his first outing with Casey last week, he looked promising. Jacob Van Rooyen 3 goals 2 behinds 11 kicks 1 handball 12 disposals 8 marks 4 tackles 2 hit outs 98 dream team points At 193cms and 91 kgs this 18 year old was named 3rd best for Casey in his first game. Raw, but strong and aggressive. He will be in the seniors at some stage this season, or the next imo.

The beauty with our list atm, is we seem to have replacements available who can do a reasonable job filling in. Then because of good drafting, our talent pool is increasing. Other than maybe in the ruck, we have adequate depth in nearly all positions.

Unless of course you are talking about one of the top 5-10 in the team who are automatic ins after missing a game.
