Wow, wtf did I just watch. We are atrocious, we have no forward line (Outside of Trac), our midfield can’t hit targets, our defence can’t handle pressure without giving away frees. Now after investing 15 games into a struggling forward, he comes good and cooks his knee. We didn’t deserve that win and probably would’ve been best if we didn’t get it

Loving the game by Liam Jones.

29 frees handed out that half.

14 frees handed out that quarter. This is why AFL struggles getting interest in other countries on the game, no one knows wtf is going on.

Seems we now have another contender Western Australia captain Deven Robertson wins 2019 Larke Medal Says top 30 but with numbers like that I can’t imagine him lasting to 30

Keen to see you come up with something better.

Love the endeavour and ignore the posters who spend all day being negative trying to poke holes in this. I rate this however would consider a Himmelberg or Finlayson instead of Patton and also would entertain trading our 2020 first rounder + Brayshaw to try get back into the top 5 as well.

Mate find my one phantom draft from 2018 that had him in top 30. Most had him around the below. Gotta love that he has a - next to kicking efficiency and decision making as well. Exactly what we needed to trade up the draft for...

Eyebrows were raised when Sparrow was picked so early in last years draft. Especially since we traded up for that specific pick, only to take a player who would’ve gone later anyway...

Let’s be honest. It is likely we will finish bottom 2. So we will be able to bring in Anderson. Trade in our 2020 pick for another top 10 pick, look to draft a Young or even a Gould with it. Trade out our 2nd rounder for Langdon and a 4th rounder. Package our 2 3rd rounders for a 2nd rounder. Trade out a Bradshaw, Viney or track for a late 1st rounder (package with change if needed), on forward that for a Himmelberg or Finlayson. In: Anderson, Young, Himmelberg, Langdon 2nd rounder, 4th rounder Out: 2019 1st pick, 2020 1st pick, 2 3rd rounders, one of Brayshaw/Viney or Track. P Disclaimer: People are going to try to poke holes in this and there probably are some however this is more to demonstrate the type of aggressive off-season we need to have to get back on track.

Reported for thread derailing.

Errr you seem to miss the point, which was that you don’t need to wait 4 years for a player to perform. Nowhere did I say ‘let’s draft 3 players in top 6’ but ok, invent your own narrative as per usual. Anyway that said, we could easily aim for 2 top 5 picks. We will already have one, trade forward our 2020 pick + a player for the other.

Errr no? You did notice I was posting about Jones sublime disposal when we were winning today’s match? Or do you have selective sight to match your made up narrative?

I do admit, before we Down go down this path we need someone else at the negotiating table. We get bent over every trade with Mahoney at the helm.

Seems the words compounding factor is too hard for you to understand. Always making a fool of yourself

We need a big rebuild. I am in the Taylor has messed it up camp. Missed out on Degoey, Himmelberg and Curnow.

Jayden Stephenson, Connor Rozee and Sam Walsh say hi. Plenty of recent players who have been drafted who eclipse our players.

Jeez Goody could show some emotion at a presser once in a while, guy is a bloody robot compared to coaches like Scott or Bucks and talks in a tone that’s meant to make everything sound positive when nothing is positive at all. He makes it sound like just another day in the office without a care in the world as long as his salary goes in for the week.

Your over rating Weed, Trac and Tmac here who combined today for a total of 1 tackle. Also most trades are not as simple as pick for player. We could package one of our 3rd or 2nd rounders + Hunt or Omac to move up the draft in a compounding fashion. We almost were able to offload pick 23+ Trengove for a pick to net us Lever, only for us to end up paying 2 first rounders 2 years later.

Need to do whatever we can to get 5-6 top 20 picks. Our list needs a reset and any trade should be considered before our players lose even more value.

That was my point, how poorly they are doing, seems as usual you failed to see it...

Look how GC are doing now, of course they would be happy to see the back of someone trying to hold them to account.

Forward line tackles Weiderman: 0 Petracca: 0 Tmac: 1 Hunt: 1 Hannan: 1 Smith: 1 Total of 4 tackles (average 1 per Quarter) in our forwardline today. Absolutely pathetic forward pressure. No wonder every team just prances out of our attacking 50.

Our midfield, wings and Forward line are not AFL standard. We can’t hit handpasses, our mids don’t defend, our key forwards don’t even take shots at goals when inside 50. We need to look to trade out some players to get ourself back into the draft. For the right offer I feel OMac, Hunt, Viney, Brayshaw, Trac, Tmac and Weeds should be in consideration to help us reset our list and team balance and fill these gaps. We arnt going to get close to a premiership with this list

Exactly what the rest of the AFL World are doing at us at our inability to do what’s needed after 55 years of being losers.
