How do we know GC won't take Anderson? Rowell is a smaller Gus.

The 2019 Draft and Trade Targets Thread
IF it could be done, you would grab it. Say pick 2 and ANB and the Wagners, giving Anderson and experience to GCS and King and a lower first round pick to us. That would take care of our needed extra key forward and in years to come, second ruckman. You would have Tom Mac, Weid, King and Petty. You could then concentrate on pace and small forwards with the rest of your drafting/trading. Langdon if you could get him, would solve the running half back problem and you would be looking a better team.

The calumny of the AFL's priority pick policy
If GCS traded their 2020 first round pick to us they would win the flag. MFCSS says hi.

Are we tanking?
No he isn't, but I am and I came out with that Defence back then, plus numerous others. Like so many DL's we posted that how can you deliberately lose, when you are not good enough to win anyway. Would I be accused of tanking in a tennis match against Roger Federer if I didn't try my best to win? Also, in the game we copped it for tanking against the Tigers, we were leading when the final siren blew, a second after Jordan McMahon marked it and then kicked the goal and won the Tigers the game. "The tanking furore has previously centred on the Melbourne's narrow 2009 Round 18 loss to Richmond, where Tiger Jordan McMahon kicked a match-winning goal after the siren" Anyway, enough of tanking talk.

Kade Chandler Set to Debut
That is amazing. We have played nearly every available player this year.

Kade Chandler Set to Debut
I am staggered he is getting a game, given his season so far, however, that said, I am happy for him and hope he goes ok. I suppose with so many injuries and other players out of form and being late in a horrible season, it is the perfect chance to blood a couple of guys and give then a taste of the big time.

Agree. Kid has talent and is getting better with each game.

He put on the number 22 Pies Jumper and no one went near him.

Craig Jennings Gone at Seasons End
This is coming from the Coaches, Players and Clubs, not the AFL.

Craig Jennings Gone at Seasons End
We keep hearing that the AFL Coach is really a Manager of people and the public face of the FD. He has fitness people, medical people, recruiting people, list management people and assistant coaches, working with him to achieve the optimum result for his club. The tactics seem to come from others, be it the Assistant Coaches, the Tactical Coach or group think. Even if a side is losing, the Coach could be going ok, but at the same time his assistants might not be. Therefore, it is fully understandable, that a club could be happy with its Coach, but be unhappy with his Assistants and require changes in that group.

Time to Unleash Salem
Salem started the year brilliantly and has tapered off noticeably.

Sam Frost - Contract status
He played at 100% effective disposal against the Pies. No one else got near that %. I would love to hear he has re signed for 3 years.

Sorry Titan, I was driving at the time and I thought he said it was hard to get a kick when he played on him.

Sam Frost - Contract status
Absolutely. Nick Reiwoldt this morning on SEN agreed with you. Said he found him hard to get a kick on when he played and in his opinion is ATM our best defender. Can't understand why because of a couple of mistakes a game, people want to get rid of him. He has saved us multiple goals this year and generated play from the backline. Yes he has his faults but which Demon doesn't. I could name half the list I would rather lose than him.
