I don’t see the suns beating Collingwood. Our best chance is GWS beating saints then us taking the percentage into our own hands against Essendon. Freo is also a decent chance

Longmuir was probably part of taking us down in 2017. Hopefully he can do us the favour this time

Interestingly, we now can’t finish lower than 10th (unless there is a percentage battering next week). So the pick we gave up in the trade with North will be 9 or higher. 2-3 academy players very likely to be top 5 or 6, pushing it out to at least 11. Looking like astute trading in the end.

It shouldn’t cost us. Bulldogs can only jump our percentage if they win (or we lose) and they will jump us anyway in that case

Watched a few mins. Umpiring putrid. In dogs favour as usual

Need some Clarko genius today

We should have done the same with Vince last year. We could have used him when we were ravaged by injury!

It is also a sneaky way to add an extra assistant coach without it being under the soft cap. I believe that’s what the hawks may be up to with Burgoyne who is playing at a similar quality to Jones this year.

I like this. I’d like to see Jetta again this year also.

Apparently had a full contact session the day before Sydney...

Conveniently picking our Weid’s worst game of the year...

Keeping in mind that we haven’t seen a lot of the players from last year yet: Tom Green, Jake Riccardi, Trent Rivers, Mitch Georgiades, Will Day

Don’t rate Serong. Average AFL player potential. I don’t want that for a first round pick. Plenty I would have taken before him. Jury is out on Pickett. Has shown glimpses at best. Could be a complete flop or the next Jeffy Garlett.

If we win all three games (however unlikely that is) we make it

Smith will get the job on Papley I suspect. Has the speed and did well on Danger when he was forward earlier in the year. Smarts...?

He wants lots of money. That will get him end of first round.

We won despite the questionable selection. Of the ins only Gawn and Rivers strongly justified their selection. Gawn is obvious and we had all been calling for Rivers to come in to allow Harmes to move up the ground. Brown and wagner were ok. Jones was disappointing, as was Omac (but I do think May and lever play better with him in the team).

Don’t mind the Atkins idea but wouldn’t be paying him too much. We should also have a go at Witherden who has only recently won back his spot in the Bris side (Victorian). Jack Sinclair could fill a need for us on the cheap. I’d also have faith in Burgess and co to get Cockatoo back on the park - Geelong couldn’t ask for much given his injury history.

Doesn’t have the media hype but his record speaks for itself. Takes the best key forward every week and keeps them quiet, as well as his (mostly) excellent kicking out of defence.

They aren’t back. They played Hawthorn without Sicily, O’Meara, Burgoyne and Smith. West coast, Geelong and Port will sort them out

Absolutely absurd that Langdon has been fined for that tackle

He missed that we traded North’s first rounder back a few spots which got us the Rivers pick. Makes it look even better for us

Also Pies looking pretty tall despite heavy rain predicted pre-game

Rivers is very slight and gets moved out of one on ones too easily. A bit of time in the gym this summer and he will be a fixture in the back 6 in 2021. Happy with the changes. Thought they might manage Sparrow or Jones for Viney but otherwise as I thought.
