  1. they're just prepping em for the inevitable request to be traded to geelong
  2. clark to geelong lumumba to melbourne varcoe to filth
  3. we wouldn't want picks, we'd want players we're in 'win now' mode not 'plan for the future' mode
  4. ross the boss' opening line in the presser last nite: "that wasn't us" oi! stop stealing goody's material!!
  5. offer came way too late we would've wanted to turn that into something else, and wouldn't have had the time to work a deal typical crom
  6. aints putting on zero defensive pressure
  7. almost like playing two minnow clubs at a carpark on a thursday nite is a terrible idea
  8. the problem being there wasn't a cash-in the offer was mcadam and pick 14, which ended up as pick 19, from memory petty is worth more than that
  9. jefferson did the same thing the week before
  10. same reason we get to train at the adelaide oval, or the scg, or the gabba, or our beloved perth stadium, when we're on the road
  11. Tigs poor form must be hurting presale
  12. I was under the assumption that Anzac Day Eve was a fully ticketed game?
  13. nope; not if he wants to play as a first choice ruckman any time in the next decade plus ethan read will have that position locked by the time white is ready to roll far better to come to the dees, learn from all-time great, and play for the side his old man was terrific for for years
  14. comparisons are meaningless, but... roo's 2023 vs tex walker at same age in 2010: 20 games vs 18 174 vs 213 disposals 28 goal 9 vs 35.28 78.2% vs 59.6% disposal efficiency roo's 2023 vs joe daniher at the same age in 2014: 20 vs 21 174 vs 274 disposals 28 goal 9 vs 28.20 78.2% vs 65% disposal efficiency roo's 2023 vs charlie curnow at the same age in 2017: 20 vs 21 174 vs 297 disposals 28 goal 9 vs 20.12 78.2% vs 77.4% disposal efficiency compares pretty well for mine
  15. was he the player who went to take a screamer and managed to break his leg, do his acl, and knock himself unconscious in one fell swoop?
  16. not to mention having to have enough list spaces to use with the amount of picks that you have when gc17 have 7 picks and only 3 list spaces, with 3 first-round academy picks to come in that they can conveniently cover with the 'value' of their plethora of 2nd and 3rd round picks, it's an absolute farce
  17. don't forget, laura kane IS part of the boy's club melbourne uni law grad never practised law heavily involved with uni blacks worked as a consultant for an afl club / the afl moved into head office groomed into a role in the exec nothing changes down in docklands
  18. a few toss-ups this week... footscray? crom filth? baggers? bears? flagmantle bloods? kangas?
  19. daniel's disposal efficiency and defensive workrate have plummeted in the last couple of years from his best seasons it will be interesting to see where he sits going forward in the make-up of the dogs' side
  20. Changes afoot to the bidding process: AFL clubs will be forced to pay a higher price for star academy and father-son players as part of an overhaul of the draft points system. And the league is open to pick purchasing where clubs can effectively buy draft picks with salary cap space and trading more than one year in advance. AFL’s big move to unlock trade period stalemates.
  21. Cameron cleared Anderson finally had a win at the tribunal despite getting references to players suspended previously incorrect
  22. compensation? no club gets compensation when a player is forced to retire
