Hawks want way too much for him

Eddie kicked over a third of his goals against GC17

Yup, hoping it’s Bonar of those options, but only cos he’s the only one I can remember seeing playing for their senior side of that list

It’s cos the commission meets to make decisions on Brownlow night Its gonna happen and I really don’t think it matters that much GC17’s issues go far deeper than their access to talented kids

I used to get my sports clobber from Earl’s shop because it was, well, Earl’s shop

I thought the BE for the carpark was 35k? Might’ve come down since that was a few years ago...

we would get zero compo think waite going to north

really? i see him as a small, lightweight player - he's not that much better than someone like lockyer, albeit younger

i wonder, if we do execute the split with the two picks in the teens that gw$ hold, whether we'll go for brodie kemp, the kid who did his knee but was originally touted as a top five pick?

aiden bonar would be the logical third part of the 3 = 12 + 14 + X equation, given that he's rumoured to have been wanting to get out of gw$ as quick as he can - doesn't / won't have the opportunity to play as a mid in their line-up, more than likely, and has regularly dominated at (that admittedly significantly) lower level in two seasons, averaging 20.1 possessions, 2.3 marks, 6.2 tackles, and kicking 17.13 in 29 games neafl stats: https://www.neafl.com.au/season/players/1004894 official bio: Born to a Scottish father and Papua New Guinean mother, Aiden Bonar became a GIANT with the club’s first pick at the 2017 NAB AFL Draft (pick 11). Bonar is a powerfully built, versatile tall who excels at stoppages and has a burst of speed away from congestion. He is strong overhead and very competitive and after overcoming two ACL injuries during his junior football career. Bonar had an impressive debut season in 2018, kicking five goals in four games. scouting profile from draft central: Inside Midfielder/General Forward (Haileybury College/Dandenong Stingrays) 08/03/1999 | 188.6cm | 86.5kg Scouting notes: Build like a brick sh!thouse. After recovering from two knee surgeries after his first ACL graft didn’t take, Bonar has presence about him around the ground, mostly playing up forward as a third tall – but has pushed into the midfield for longer periods with each game he plays. His pressure is very good and he can lay bone crunching tackles. Has a good burst of speed and is strong overhead. Suggestion is he’ll end up a full time midfielder. Possesses a big upside. Strengths: Kicking, acceleration, X-Factor, versatility Improvements: Endurance, consistency Combine test results: 20m Sprint (secs) – 2.90 | Agility (secs) – 8.30 | Yo-Yo Test (level) –20.5

Back to the Blues: https://www.theaustralian.com.au/sport/afl/disenchanted-eddie-betts-to-quit-crows-leaving-city-with-the-blues/news-story/3464dbe2a3920c9cde8cdf92ec4a4b78

Yep, delisted free agent as a rookie would work well for Kerr

Beauty of this is we hold the whip hand to a greater or lesser degree GW$ want a gun at #3 (presuming a pointy end priority pick) and to use significantly later picks than 11 and 13 to match the Green bid, which would seem certain to come at #4 from the crows This is a real opportunity to maximise our return

Clay?

I’m disgusted about the dispatch discussion Jenkins is cooked

Jenkins has been discussed in dispatches ...shudder...

Absolutely fantastic achievement

quick, skilled, but had a rotten run with injury

true, but over the last three years, keath has played 30 games, compared to 54 for o mac, 48 for frost, 43 for may, even 36 for lever with an acl impacting two seasons keath would be our second oldest kpp defender behind may - we'd want to be very certain about bringing another in given it seems to be one area we have genuine depth in, particularly if you include petty (who i like as a forward) or t mac (who can clearly play both ends)

they don't even disclose actual club contracts; it's all guess work and 'informed' information

i don't see the massive attraction in keath

i can understand the 'logic' of doing both use pick 3: take best talent available split pick 3: add two talented players to the list given our clear lack of depth of talent, i am completely split on which to do! i'd prefer to take pick 3 to the draft and have first crack at 'the next tier' of talent, but at the same time i can understand that the draft is not rated that highly outside the top 2 (where have i heard that before!) and so we're better off adding two young players rather than one it's all pot luck; you have no idea what these guys are going to be like as afl players

coniglio's marketing money contract is sure to be separate to his playing contract well done afl - handing out extra picks to gc17 because their salary cap management is so bad that they had to ditch jarryd lyons, who is a gun for the bears, and now making sure that gw$ stay competitive by keeping the likes of kelly and coniglio with some, shall we say, 'interesting' deals

i've watched a fair bit of amon, as i have a soft spot for the pear he's alright; he'd definitely be in our side for the entirety of this year would add pace and finishing ability he's had better years than this year in the past third rounder, as he's out of contract and wants to come home

and this is more or less why i'm not concerned about them getting two high picks it's not going to change any of the underlying issues
