whatwhat say what

tim lamb is is so good - he shuts down every journo and just glares at stupid questions

aints don't need to speak to us we speak to billings' manager, billings' manager speaks to us...deal will be done by deadline

20 year old small forwards who kick 40 goals in a preliminary finals side and the following year play a role in a premiership don't grow on trees he knows where the goals are but his defensive side is severely lackly good get for the dorks i reckon

pick 1 (hodge) for pick 10 (mcpharlin) and croad

there won't be any announcement for some time these things take time

people also forget that jonno brown went into a forward line that already had lynch, bradshaw, pike, hart, power, mcrae, headland moving in and out from midfield... it was a helluva side

@binman - i think you'll find that jonno brown was 100% regarded as the best player in his draft the bears got him as a father-son gift cos his dad played 51 games with fitzroy; i believe it was part of the reason it was extended to 100 games from 50

would be in our best 23

bernie vince was the last player we got from the crom for a second rounder?

lol, 'stand off' we made an offer and the crom eventually dragged their knuckles along the ground to the table and did the deal

there's a common theme occurring... jake melksham - second rounder michael hibberd - second rounder ed langdon - second rounder (effectively) brodie grundy - second rounder shane mcadam - second rounder any others?

we did use it; on fullarton we traded a second rounder in 2022 for a second rounder in 2024 it was an experiment; it failed

curious to know why you think petty will be absent for that length of time

a good 💀🏇 is second only to a 🏆🏃‍♂️ the 2023 dream was to have both...alas...

multiple 💀🏇 for flagmantle in 2024

6: bannan 5: hore 4: a mackin 3: mithen 2: purcell 1: birch

i agree he's younger, his kicking is superior, and there's none of this off-field malarkey for the same reason errol gulden - who is also out of contract next year - is likely to have a higher 'value' than clayton but if terms of trade value, butters is probably 'worth more' than the bont as well

i understand where kornes is saying that 'his value will never be higher' but he's only looking at it from a trade perspective not from a team structure perspective he's so blinded by the need for MOAR CONTENT that he's missing the bigger picture, which is that with petty we're closer to a premiership than without him in our best 23

kornes is just about generating content connors was right in his assessment a month or so ago; there's little movement this year as a) clubs are reasonably happy with where their list builds are at, and 2) the cba uncertainty has stymied movement

somebody hand this quote sheet to steve may

held em SCORELESS in the last 3 quarters superb

shelley heath is as tough as they come

currently bucketing and 10 degrees in south east metro melbourne

really missing tayla as a forward lead up target already

he would be crazy not to consider the move with that sort of money being thrown at him at the same time...he's re-committed himself to the club that he has a further two years under contract with ultimately after two more premierhips and two colemans he's going to be well-rewarded in the years to come regardless
