The AFL website has an article about the injury lists at all 18 clubs and says Tracca had a knee op at the end of the season. Track watchers are saying that he was having the knee looked at by trainers on Friday and appeared to be in some discomfort. Perhaps it is an “injury”?

Has anyone done this?

Surprised that Tom Freeman didn’t figure in any of the rookie draft discussion. He looks a future prospect to me.

We lose heavily

Brother Tim was on the original GWS list but played only 6 games. Then rookied by Collingwood but only played in their VFL team.

Not overthinking. It might work if we did, say 2019 first rounder and 28 for say a pick 12 to 14 and early to mid 30s. This would give us a current first rounder, an early second rounder and a possible third pick before having to bid for Toby Bedford.

This has nothing to do with the fact that you both come from Fish ? Creek?

Yeah ... and I don’t know why Port Adelaide are so keen to get Lukosius when they already have a tall blond key forward in Jack Watts.

Would we rookie DJ?

The AFL is trying to milk out as much coverage as possible but unless some picks are traded between now and the draft night (or on the night), only 5 out of 20 picks are going to the Victorian clubs. Theres going to be very little to interest supporters of many of the traditional clubs other than the academic.

Reminded me a bit of Norf’s Ben Brown.

Just at the moment the GC17 don’t have any players or supporters so that’s not surprising.

I don’t think Simon Goodwin is a fan either.

Suggest that might be 5, 23 & 30. At this point in time, Melbourne already has pick 36.

True and part of the reason why Smith is playing in Perth tomorrow night is that fantastic smother at a crucial time in the last quarter last Saturday.

Didn’t know Bruce Woodley was a Demon or for that matter, wrote songs with the great Paul Simon. Wow.

Big improvement on his stats halfway through the quarter though.

Anyone know if this game is going to be the televised game?

Same domination as last week. Same lead.

No chance Collingwood is going to lose to Brisbane. We must do it ourselves tomorrow.

Lee Spurr (Fremantle) has announced he is retiring.

This article says much the same thing. AFL draft 2018 date: AFL to make history and hold draft across two days In light of the fact that the MFC doesn't have any high draft picks, there might be an opportunity to improve the club's draft position out of all of this.

Perfect scenario for us (assuming we win today of course). I was worried if they lost badly and Buddy played poorly today that we might take them lightly next week which is something you should never do where the Swans are involved. With Buddy back to his best yesterday, hope he plays like a busted old man next Sunday.
