Norm Smith's Curse

Trade radio is even worse.

Bring him home!

I'd wager Josh is a slight upgrade on Weid but concede it is pretty like for like.

I don't mind him going so much as walking away thinking we didn't even get a top 10 pick for him

Love it!!

Now we need to target Mitch G as port need pics and we need forwards in his age bracket

Might mean that Meek is coming in [censored] part of the LJ deal.

I just don't actually think there is some secret agenda here and some surprise left field gun is going to appear. Even as depth Harmes is more value in than out for a [censored] pick. And ruthless keeps Geelong up but ruthless trading and delisting also gave us the Neeld years.

Except when Harmes is blanketing him.

And so much upside in that he gives back with breakaway speed and grunt - and we lack speed

Lachie is good - at playing on when the ball clearly goes out of bound, surprising his opponents 80% of the time... Cant see much else...

Wouldnt be happy with Harmes going - Gives his all every time, tags better than anyone else on our list and way harder than those being suggested as his replacement.

You are all mad - Harmes is versatile, is one of the best taggers Ive seen, does wonders for our rotations because he never gets tired. When the chips are down Harmes is often one of the few still trying his gut out.

Not that extreme. He is gettable Ive heard and would fit in perfectly.

I love it: https://www.sen.com.au/news/2022/09/30/melbournes-budget-make-a-pitch-to-mitch-georgia-dees/

Van Rooyen looks great - he may be the answer if we dont pick any other forwards

Picks are a gamble that could pay off at a time when our once in a generation midfield talent has passed its window. Id like to see us have a crack at Mitch Georgiades even though he is a WA boy he could be ideal. Jackson to WC for a first rounder and Oscar Allen also works for me haha Naughton would be the one Id also love but seems unlikely. Grundy does not overly excite me tbh. Another weird idea - Weid as a key position defender?

Weren't we a certainy to pick up Gunston

Mitch Georgiades has one year to run but is apparently gettable.

Nah Bedford looks a real sort in the Casey GF.

Still waiting GNF

Who cares who made the decision. He helped us win a premiership and now the decision is made. Lets just hope we can maximise the trade.

In this space...

Exactly. How many teenagers stand up in the first GF their side looks like winning since 64?

Jackson - as a kid - stood up in a Grand Final when the chips were down. He wasn't alone but he stood up. That is a rare quality.
