  1. slim pickings based on the above tim o'brien will be 30 by the time the next season rolls around; could he be our new mitch brown? brynn teakle's main skill would appear to be being tall - if we were interested it'd be rookie list for a year, you'd think, just to kick the tyres; at sanfl level he barely averages 10 possessions, 11 hit-outs a game
  2. he ain't no fortunate son when do they announce the compensation picks for the free agency signings?
  3. this we are about tweaks to the list and team structure, not throwing the baby out with the bathwater in 2024 we're gunning for finals for four years in a row; our best record since the 1950s-60s is five from 87-91 inclusive arguably it was out lack of a gun tall forward that cost us games back then, when teams were much more reliant upon tall forwards; over the last decade we've seen it's mid-sized talls and smalls that do the scoreboard damage with talls there to compete and ensure that there's not easy intercept marks i would love to add a superstar to our side, but there's none up for grabs - when the two most talked about players in the free agency & trade period are ben mckay and brodie grundy who is going to be at three clubs in three years, it's slim pickings on the player movement front this off-season
  4. dow apparently toured sydney hq today if i had a choice of there of the aints, i know which one i'd go to
  5. swans picking up all the second rung mids - jj from us and dow from the blues
  6. filth don't know how to lose close ones they're going to grind this out
  7. love that maynard gets booed by everyone who doesn't go for the filth
  8. it'll never happen and part of the reason is that the drafts are so compromised - with father-son, academy, freebie selections for being rubbish, etc. - that it renders the 'equalisation through the draft' concept moot
  9. yes to speed, seems to be the case re endurance, but it's his high up and under kicks that have seen him dropped
  10. underneath the byline: Aug 10, 2023, 3:00pm
  11. he's not up for trade, and he's signed up for another year at gc17 from last month: https://www.afl.com.au/news/1003332/key-blue-starts-talks-roos-hold-firm-on-mckay-docker-hits-trigger VETERAN SUN TO PLAY ON LEVI Casboult will go round again at Gold Coast in 2024, two years after his AFL career looked over.
  12. toumpas was a star junior a double hip op post-sanfl season cost him all his speed and power
  13. they've been in trade discussions since midway thru the season levi re-signed around the same time and is obviously going nowhere
  14. yes, because the club is beholden to your timeline
  15. kate hore 4 goals 2 geelong 4 goals 1
  16. our aflw team is one of the most dominant sides i've seen
  17. picks and chooses when to work defensively
  18. you find new fathoms to dig yrself into @old dee
  19. 🍐💀🏇 2024; make it happen, you cowards might be a chance with port looking to split their 2024 first into multiple second round selections to get the esava, bzk, and sweet deals done we are likely to have a bunch of second rounders - could be as many as four after the grundy deal and jj compo are done - that we probably don't need
  20. mills back to half back when he comes back from injury plus heeney predominantly forward leaves their inside mids thin with just parker and warner as elite / near-elite level, while gulden might become the new butters jj is going from 3rd cab off the rank to probably 2nd
  21. this is not a dodo / sos arrangement
  22. sparrow needs to be a lot more of a workhorse thru midfield to feature in our top 10 i'd wager nibbler i think is a chance, but i can't see sparrow getting a spot in our top 10 ahead of may, petracca, viney, lever, brayshaw, gawn, oliver, hunter, rivers, or pickett
  23. caulfield racecourse >>> fisherman's bend there's no way they'll make any announcement during spring carnival i wouldn't expect anything until at least may next year
