PREGAME: Rd 21 vs Western Bulldogs
Removing Rivers from the backline (sensible move) and partially Picket from the forward line opens a spot for a swinging small (no pun intended). If AMW could fill that role he would be invaluable. Woewodin needs to show a little more. Perfect time to give him an extended AFL run. Not sure where he best fits longer term. 2025 will be his make or break year.

What was your excuse?
Season is around five games too long From an attendance viewpoint too many night games in wintry conditions Take over by TV will do this

CASEY: Rd 18 vs UWS Giants
Zero system Not really seeing any skill development at this level No run and spread just hack it forward in hope to an empty forward line because we've pressed too high

Free agency was introduced for players like Houston. If you take the long term dollars don't expect clubs to come bailing you out with multiple first rounders. We'd be suckers to pay two first rounders for an ageing player Lynch to Richmond and MacKay to Essendon should be the model.

I don't think we can afford to invest too much more in the window at the expense of the future. Dollar investment maybe but we need quality youngsters via the draft. For 28 year olds that is what the free agency is all about. Houston chose to sign long term so I have little sympathy.
