Random Task

He's good enough, but he might want more opportunities elsewhere. Contracted for next year so hope he sticks around.

North may have a pick 1, 2 combo in their minds after watching an improved Eagles performance. A wooden spoon strengthens their compensation bid. Call me a pessimist.

I'd rather they finish top. They would need to lose at least 2 out of their 3 remaining games and they play both Brisbane and Geelong. Top 2 guarantees home finals throughout the whole series and is not different to pole position apart from bragging rights. Edit: as you pointed out on another thread, travel is still possible if the interstate teams win both qualifying finals.

Port have lost 4 in a row! 2nd spot could be ours tomorrow afternoon with a commanding win.

Fairly certain Stanley is a double agent

Did you guys know that Gryan Miers is the assist king?

Pies have also dropped 5%

Getting down to the business end of the season. Pies have now lost 2 on the trot, port 3.. and Lions have only won 1 of their past 3 games. We've won our past 4.

Hope Eagles can take it up to freo next week.

Not great footage here but in this one he takes a mark and kicks a goal around the 7.37 minute mark. Haven't watched it all thoroughly so may pop up elsewhere throughout the video as well. Wearing #11 Edit: kicks another goal @8.57 and involved in a bit more play 10seconds later

Sure was

Relatable

As good as a kick that Daniel can be, he has some shocking turnovers attempting to pull off the ridiculous.

Vic Metro leads the way as Draft Combine list announced - 2023 AFL Draft Combine list announced Curiously, Kynan Brown is not listed at either the national or state combine. Orlando Turner is attending one of the state combines. Riak Andrew not invited to either combine which is probably not a surprise given he's only recently come back from an ACL.

Not sure we have the farm to get the deal done. 4, Gold Coasts 1st (if we can get it) and future 1st might do it. But we're hardly the only club after Gold Coasts pick, even then it allegedly hinges on Curtain being guaranteed to last to pick 4 for the Eagles to be interested. North are on record as identifying a key back as a list need, one of many, which may put Curtain directly in their sights. They've gone midfield heavy in the draft for a while and if McKay leaves then they will either be trading or drafting one. We'll have a better idea on what our chances are after the Grand Final.

champ highlights

Agree. They need to trade for establishesd talent and I hope any assistance will revolve around picks that must be on-traded for players similar to what they received last year. Wouldn't surprise if they received a mid-first (or future mid-first) pick @11 that needs to be on-traded. Bit more appealing for clubs looking to trade into the first round. If the quality of players isn't there for an outright pick swap, then they can get creative with other picks involved. Example: *not to be taken as a serious scenario. Out: North's compensation pick 11 In: Tomlinson, Pick 15 They get a key defender and retain a first round pick, which they can now use at the draft, with a small slide. I'd be somewhat ok with this compared to them being able to prelist a kid or getting pick 3 for an ordinary defender.

AFL need to have their own doctors to perform these assessments. Port, with form, should be facing loss of points. They've prioritised wins over their players welfare. Disgusting.

Just hoping for us to win and keep the roos to <60. And Petty to kick 10.

Wasn't sure where to post this, but good to see the media pushing back against North requesting draft handouts.

Just hope it's not a windy game like we saw at Casey on the weekend. Apart from the ugly spectacle it will likely help to keep them in the game for longer.
