They're doing free numbers this week, aren't they? Bit late now, though. Was wanting a clash jumper.

Yeah, I was about to post that.

Petterd won't leave, but I agree - he's best 22.

If your dad is Garry Lyon, please come forward and say you're an absolute gun at footy.

Underrated post.

Colin Sylvia was the last panelist. Brad Green and Jack Watts appeared briefly to promote the membership drive, but they sat in the crowd.

Ryan Pendlebury any relation? If he's got half the talent of Scott I say rookie him.

Yeah, I found that hilarious. I mean, they never said it was a serious footy analysis show...

Oh cool, another 10 page Tom Scully thread. Didn't he say that he wanted to hold off talks until the end of the season, and increase his value with good second year form? That suggests he's trying to get more money out of Melbourne. I can't imagine GWS paying more than $800k a year for him, and he would be likely to get (at the moment) about $300k at Melbourne? Can easily push that up to $400k a year at Melbourne by playing great footy this year. Doubt GWS would do an increase like that. An offer of $800k early this year would turn into $850k, maybe. That's just my opinion, though.

Brent Moloney will be on The Footy Show panel tonight for the first time. Been a while since I've seen a Dee on the panel. Should be good to see him besides all the other crap that goes around on there.

Yep, they'll have to delist five players a season. Plus I think a rookie can only spend two years on the rookie list, they then need to be re-rookied (?), delisted or promoted, which costs another draft pick and another player to be delisted.

Gold Coast draft concessions The same rules apply for GWS, except pushed back a year, of course.

The response I'll see from the AFL is that if they had to match Tom Scully as a number one pick then they'd have to match Watts, then Kreuzer, Gibbs, Murphy, Deledio and so on. Where would the cutoff be? From a realistic and common sense point of view it's unfair not to receive the first pick in the event that he left, but from an AFL point of view, it's unfair to give us the first pick.

B: Harbrow, Garland, Rawlings - Average, good until injured, okay HB: Drummond, Pears, Gilbee - Injured, injured, Dogs are crap C: Foley, Hodge, Simpson - Patchy, hitting form, good HF: Gray, Cloke, Fyfe - Up and down, solid, brilliant F: Byrnes, Walker, Milne - Injured, lazy, spud R: Mumford, Hayes, Priddis - good, ACL, legendary Copying and pasting out of spreadsheets FTW.

Brilliant find. Really takes the [censored] out of Bruce McAvaney's use of the word exciting...though not literally, of course

Bate + pick 19 to GWS, pick 5 to Melbourne. Me gusta.

You did? Well, if you're preparing to offer way more than you should, maybe deals can be done

GWS get the same concessions, I'm pretty sure, which is picks 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15 and the first pick of every round afterwards. So as it currently stands, we are in line for pick 19. Edit: Dammit, ninja'd. And Satan, compensation is decided by...someone I don't know of, but basically there's tiers - first-round pick, end-of-first-round pick, second-round pick, end-of-second-round pick or third-round pick. For the picks not at the end of the round, that pick comes instantly after your pick in that round - e.g. if we finished 8th (pick 19) and used a first-round compensation pick (hypothetically, we currently don't have one) then it would be pick 20, and every pick below us would be pushed back one. So if you finished bottom of the ladder with pick 1, and had a first-round compensation pick, you have the new Scullgove twins.

No problem. Now if only my team put in some effort as well... (1000th post. :D)

I'm pretty much the same as you - vocal but not abusive. I mean, I'm 15, and I know what's right and wrong and I know what happens when there's people around you swearing at the umpires or players. I find it odd that people twice or three times my age still find it fun to yell loads of profanities when really, they're just making a fool of themselves and they're setting a horrible example for the younger people around them.

Depends on the offer.
