I wonder if the pies fans will boo Grundy or Langdon next year? or are they all Duck no Ruck?

On Mays Instagram 😂

We seem to be downgrading this trade period. Out Weed In poorer version of Weed Josh Schache Out Jackson In pick 13 and future picks

I’m still scratching my head at how we lost a generational talent who was a top three pick and Premiership star, and we didn’t even receive a pick in the top 10.

He was always going back home. Otherwise we would have tied him up with a longer deal a year ago. 7 million to go back home and play for the club you supported as a kid? Who wouldn’t take that deal of a lifetime?

He is not the sharpest tool in the shed to be honest.

Freo and GWS win big time in that deal Its bad enough as it is, but how did we lose Bedford for nothing?

I’d say they just want to make sure we don’t get caught short again while we are in this premiership window . Last season when TMac went down it cost us dearly and BBB has always managed an ongoing injury and could go down anytime. Personally id like us to go with a rejigged forward line using JVR and Petty ( who I really feel have the goods) and either TMac or Brown, or a Josh Bruce as that next tall.

I didn’t quite get where it came from, they just mentioned it.

Doesn’t come across as a very committed athlete to me, but as a swap for Thommo maybe.

He is a Bulldog player . How old is he?

Has just completed a medical at MFC Source - AFL trade radio

With Bedford most likely gone then ANB or Sparrow takes his spot

He really should give being the forwards coach a try. He was a great forward himself.

Lowball over from the club so had no option, more money and longer contract at the Weagles

Club great already Worst public speaker ever though

I like that idea, Bowey could make a great winger. ( Maybe Salem replaces Smith down back )

Turner is the ideal replacement for Petty if he goes forward, he looked great in the VFL grand final and after another preseason will be ready. The resting Ruck plays forward anyway so maybe alternate with Grundy in the forward pocket. Salrms skills will be much needed on the wing to deliver pin point passes to the forwards and Brayshaw can play his role down back. ( maybe they could alternate)

I thought I’d have a go at changing things up with a few positional changes for next season that might give us lift and hopefully be strong contenders again by using player’s strengths . Brayshaw was all Australian squad at half back and Petty is the competitive beast we need at full forward. Salem on the other wing to utilize his elite kicking to the forwards. Turner May Bowey Brayshaw Lever J.Smith Langdon Oliver Salem Gawn JVR Bedford Pickett Petty Fritsch Grundy Viney Petracca I/c - Chandler TMac Jordon Spargo

As much as I dislike their coach Lord Farquaad. They probably deserve it this year.

Turner looked very good in the Casey. Grand final and will be better than Thommo. Another preseason and he will be ripe to take that spot, and we also have Joel Smith who can play the role.

Petty is a competitive beast and exactly what we need as a focal point in our forward line. Now is the time, and the parallels with David Neitz are uncanny. I really think it would be the final piece of the jigsaw for us , especially with JVR as support.

I just don’t think the umps like Clarry

He was at the final against Brisbane too

Had an interesting convo with a club insider during the Casey grand final. Said we had too many players carrying injuries into the finals in Lever, Salem, Petracca , Jackson , B. Brown and Oliver, and that Fritsch who couldn’t jump because of a knee issue and Gawn with a sore foot shouldn’t have even played. Reckons that bar injury we will be back with a vengeance next year. Also said Joel Smith was offered a contract on low money which he didn’t accept and almost went to Sydney who offered him a 3 year deal.( Longmire is his godfather). MFC came back and upped the offer so he decided to stay.
