whatwhat say what

oh my god

I just keep telling myself ‘down to player 41 on the list...’ The only way is up from here!

only games i care about are ours and carlton beating the aints beyond that i hope the bears begin to firm for premiership favouritism with a big win over the cats, and that meth coke do the tiggas on OUR home ground

it's why, ideally, he's not in our best 22 he's got better this year, no doubt, but he's still a very average (at best) footballer

did he turn it straight over in the corridor with the free kick?

Baker one was fantastic

Perfect replacement for Coniglio for them tho If we end up with pick 3, gw$ might want to trade with us so that they can secure a high end young talent as well as Greene Forget the likes of Kelly, Cameron, Greene of the Toby variety or Taranto and the like, but who else could we prize free I wonder... Whitfield for pick 3?

Fourth round pick Constantly injured

who said we want to win?

they should have been up a lot sooner than they were fortunately, draft picks (three #1 in a row a decade ago, another several since) and high-priced recruits (judd, daisy) aren't the panacea wait, oh my god, THAT'S US TOO i hate football

players not to suit up in afl in 2019 (so far): bedford vandenberg (injured all year) jordon nietschke (injured all year) joel smith (injured all year) maynard (rookie) walker (cat b rookie, injured all year) bradtke (cat b rookie) avb and j smith obviously played in preseason just extraordinary how low we're scraping that barrel

My favourite Hannibal

King and a lower first.....

this is why touk miller is one of their best players!

i think so offers outside run and carry plus better-than-most ball usage

interesting that if you use the draft pick value calculator on the bare bones of the trade (i.e. not factoring in the compo picks that pushed the picks backwards) then we actually look to have paid more for melksham melksham trade: pick 25 hibberd trade: hibberd and 59 for 29 and 68, valuing hibberd at pick 34 currently our second round pick is #20 is langdon 'worth' a pick 20? if you split the difference btw melksham and hibberd and say he's worth around a pick 30 or so the biggest issue with this is freo have just TWO PICKS with draft value indication currently - pick 8 and 26, then nothing til about pick 80 or so - and we don't have much further down on our draft list to 'equal' it out either, just pick 38 and 57 be interesting to see how it plays out

if they were with us this year, they would both have played key roles i think both players would be be a walk-up start for us for several years to come that being said, i wouldn't think we'd be able to get both - it's one or the other

yet this is an incredibly feasible scenario we get pick 2, we hold it; we get pick 3, it is heading somewhere else i really hope we get back into the first round somehow

remember when wayne jackson, as ceo of the afl, sang along with gusto in the freo team huddle after one of their victories? this is same thing - gil's barracking moment for his pet project i certainly don't remember anyone urging any of our wantaway players when we were deplorable to 'stick fat with the dees'

Give us time Balls!

i understand why richo is being talked of - worked with both mahoney and burgess at port, plus with pert at the pies - but i would love some ip from clarkson's cluster of coaches to come in in an ideal world it's either cam bruce or, preferably, adem yze, joining our coaching panel this year bolton would be another 'senior' option in lieu of richardson, and also has worked successfully under clarkson's stewardship

he's my preferred free agent for the end of the year, ahead of tomlinson tiggas offer is reportedly significantly under expectations i am, as per every player ever, presuming he'll go to hawthorn* *unless they're originally vic country, in which case they go to geelong

it's not just caroline wilson saying it, fwiw the preference of the family is that the king brothers don't play together what's the bet he ends up at the hawks, sigh........

hasn't this been a known known for some time? i'm sure it was mentioned mid-year that jennings was goneski at the end of the year it's like the mccartney news rooke will be the next to confirm an exit

i'm gonna go with...five
