love that maynard gets booed by everyone who doesn't go for the filth

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

yes to speed, seems to be the case re endurance, but it's his high up and under kicks that have seen him dropped

underneath the byline: Aug 10, 2023, 3:00pm

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.

toumpas was a star junior a double hip op post-sanfl season cost him all his speed and power

they've been in trade discussions since midway thru the season levi re-signed around the same time and is obviously going nowhere

yes, because the club is beholden to your timeline

kate hore 4 goals 2 geelong 4 goals 1

our aflw team is one of the most dominant sides i've seen

or just blind full stop

picks and chooses when to work defensively

you find new fathoms to dig yrself into @old dee

🍐💀🏇 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

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

this is not a dodo / sos arrangement

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

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

tell that to clayton oliver

yeah but hawks did it all as free agents for the most part once they were in their 'win now' window, particularly by adding lake and frawley, while the tigs added lynch we had to trade for our equivalents thereof

larkey, sheezel, ldu, simpkin, and thomas are an impressive top five players who knows what wardlaw will be, while bailey scott is getting better all the time, and phillips and powell look like good second tier mids, like sparrow, but you'd expect more from a pick 3 and 13 respectively add curtin as a key defender to develop plus another good ball user and they should get better quickly over the next few years

i'd go further - make it 6 years and free agent for life i think the 'for life' bit actually does exist now, possibly?

or, better yet, do away with compensation entirely?

2021 premiership, i assume

why stop there? go to 13 to match the # on his back
