Have to agree about JVR, he needs to be allowed to play his position. He can ruck when its deep in the forward line if need be but his job is to contest and kick goals....simples.

I cant do the math but if North want Houston is there any acceptable deal that gets us pick 2 with a workable second pick?

they weren't.

I think Uber professional is an apt description and was probably the source of the friction. One thing is obvious the whole club needs to be as uber professional which will require everyone to work as hard as Trac this off season to get our house in order.

I'd say we are not finished at 9, 9 + 5 may become a higher first and a selection of other picks. Who knows we have to wait for the music to stop....

The GF gave me some hope. First I like Brody, seems a class person. His game in the GF was not stellar nor is he ever going to win a GF for them. What Sydney lacked was a class (or fit) tall forward and their mids couldn't run both ways and defend. I agree the ground size exposed them. The lessons for us are simple we need our mids back in form or some fresh blood there that can run all day like Lachie Neil and crew. And we need a dangerous tall forward. Over time we need a refresh on half back. Address the first two issues and we are in the hunt.

As someone who does not know the ins and outs all I can say is .......how good is Max!

McAdam is going to have a breakout soon. Kossie loves having him in the side and hopefully the coaches will develop that in a positive manner. At the moment our forwards need some choreography, we looked better in the game where Petty was higher up the field. I suspect Fritta is getting a bit cramped.

Thank you Gus for your outstanding contribution to the club. You retire with the admiration of all Dees supporters and no doubt the whole AFL community. Almost won the Brownlow (you were robbed), won a premiership and made a stellar contribution on that day and every day you were at the club. You always put the club first and now its time to put yourself first. Great BBQ Onion tips btw. Whilst we are sad, we are very proud of all you have done in your career and know that you will continue to succeed in whatever comes next because despite the hurdles life has put in your way you have shown a unique ability to jump right over them. All the best to you and your family.

Is that even possible?

Wont see a post like that on the Collingwood forum.....

Is it a WA plot to ensure he falls to where ever they can get him? Clarko building him up a ruse to have a go at pick 1?

Actually do we have any picks in the opening round (round zero) of the draft? Surely we get one for playing in the opening round?
