whatwhat say what

right, so season officially done time to bring el jefe and adams in at either end sorry melk and may, but old blokes first out

at least he didn't sign up may until 2027

no, but he's been so far behind georgiades since he went on to him at every contest that it's just embarrassing

may has looked so, so slow today

All the commentary so far has him as eligible to be drafted by us as part of our nga

That last comment is a pearler

he's the future of the forward line for gw$ they will fight tooth and nail to hold onto him - just as they did to secure the #1 pick to acquire him - and he'll be rewarded accordingly

spargo is an unrestricted free agent - if he gets a significant offer from another club, he may elect to leave according to those who know, this upcoming draft is supposedly the weakest in some time - i for one doubt we will be looking to trade into it we have a host of players who have little or no trade value and those that may have value - particularly the wa boys; van rooyen, mcvee, tholstrup, rivers, even adams at a stretch - are those that i would say we can least afford to lose as they should form the basis of our best 23 side for the bulk of the next decade i really, really hope that kalani white picks the mfc to come to as a father-son; his final quarter in his casey debut last night was utterly thrilling to see clearly we will, if things go our way, pick toby sinnema as an nga pick, while our 2026 nga pick marcus prasad looks like an even more exciting option so, 2026 and 2027 first round picks? sell em to flagmantle - i want dogga jackson back likely delisting candidates: billings hore fullarton woewodin henderson culley billings plays a role as a vfl player but should never play for the mfc again - we have better options as a mid rotation - while hore is unlucky that he's out of contract and is constantly injured, while fullarton is just completely uncompetitive possible retirements: melksham plugger mac campbell personally i would keep all three on the list; possibly shift campbell to the rookie list in lieu of verrall or let him retire IF we get dog back from out west trade options: oliver laurie sparrow fritsch i think laurie offers no value to being on the list as a primary inside mid; he should want and demand a trade elsewhere where he can try and get more opportunity at another club - i personally have doubts as to whether he is good enough to make it in that role in an afl team, but he definitely deserves the opportunity i wouldn't trade oliver or fritsch, as primarily i don't think we'd get value for them (e.g. if the baggers really wanted fritsch, i would want harry mckay in a straight swap - they both offer the same scoreboard impact, but fritsch is a helluva lot less costly on the cap) while sparrow plays a role for us as that small pressure forward / mid, but he frustates me so much with his inconsistency in the role i don't think the likes of salem, petty will realise enough 'value' in a trade sense for us to part with them it's hard to see how we are going to get involved in the meat market that is the trade period this year unless one of fritsch, oliver, petracca demands a trade

i unfortunately won't see much, if any, of the game live as i'll be at the community cup at vic park go the rockdogs, carn the dees

they won tough last week vs gw$ they play a really tough, gritty style of football will be an attritional battle

7 goals 2 to 2 goals 1 in the last quarter was super stats as follows: i mostly saw the second half but i thought el jefe looked like 'the man' as the target i50 while cross was superb at ground level i50 laurie's last quarter was huge

very good contested mark from el jefe, and he nails the set shot dees have run away with it in the last; good to watch

woewodin to white in the goal square for a goal; there's a flashback

kalani! marked it like sam darcy at the highest point, kicked it straight thru!

well we are now with hardie's easy mark i50 from a fullarton bomb after a free, and it's 17 the diff

woey 2.0 earns the free, doesn't make the distance from 50, but cross is there to rove and kick his fourth! dees up by 9

culley's kicking has been very poor tonight but not as bad as pup brown who turns it over under zero pressure when he could have kicked for goal or passed it to two players free at the top of the square he's never going to make it with his kicking skills

dees win the clearance, cross kicks his 3rd, casey by 4 points again this is crazy quick scoring

jeffo drops a sitter on the lead, woey 2.0 tries for the miracle goal, mentha brings the pressure, hore works hard at ground level, billings gets it to hardy... casey back in front but they win the clearance immediately, get the set shot at goal, nail it from 50, and it's back to 2 points their way high scoring game

another appalling free kick for insufficient intent against fullarton - really, he shoulda been penalised for not showing any effort to get the ball, and they have players free EVERYWHERE monteath kicks a beautiful goal from the boundary this kid is a ripper - should definitely be drafted at the end of this year based upon this vfl debut alone

verrall the best clearance player for the dees tonite - his bomb forward lands in henderson's lap and he goals from just on 50 dees back in front by 4 must be getting very close to 3/4 time

they goal from some hardworking chain of handballs that got started cos adams went to ground in the contest on the wing and they were forward of the ball back to 2 points their way

geez dees got lucky then - 4 peppies forward of the contest in their f50 and the player hit the post from 20m out

turnover in their d50 under zero pressure, bonner runs in for a super easy goal

sharp with just his second kick, but it's a goal from the boundary - back to a point the diff their way
