Good size frame on the lad. if he has got what it takes then all the best for him. Would he be a rookie option or in the main draft you reckon?

Thanks for the insight.

I definitely think he's good enough to go in the main draft, He tore the stingrays a new one in the GF. He's driven to get the most out of himself, so if he was to miss the main draft and go in the rookie draft, i think that would just push him on more.

Daniel will at the very least be playing VFL next year as he has offers from bendio Gold, Box Hill Hawks and The Casey Scorpions and others i think but can't remember them. He has told me that Melbourne has contacted him and talked about recruiting him, although they've only only brief discussions he and has family definitely think its a possibility.

i think 12th should be achievable if not 11th. that will get us up to where we were under bailey, except with a better coach and arguably a better forward and back line and now a midfield that should be competitive.

i like the sound of Nathan Gordon. Immediate impact which we need, good strong size about him. Could have the same sort of impact that Terlich had for us this year.

I feel as though melbourne could very well be higher up the ladder, but i really can't see us improving enough to leapfrog the teams above them, except for maybe port as they may have a hangover from last year.

All the abuse at barrett has been removed...interestingly brad miller took that tweet down

seems that whole tweet has been removed now!

i went to give Barrett a serve but the size of the msgs you can send are tiny, so couldn't say what i wished to!

he has played his best footy on the half backline. When in the midfield he has seemed struggle to some extent. And now considering the recruits we have picked up during the trade period and now cross as a DFA i think that further solidifies his place as being along the halfback line.

Use Dropkick murphys, Shipping up to Boston.

i like the music, can't stand the vocals though. maybe the instrumental version?

what a great sight it is! Would be great to see him return to these heights this up coming season

Try people up on it by bliss n eso and get some shots of the crowd on it. Always thought it would make a good footy video

i like it, but i'd have to try and find one thats sensored a bit as i don't think it would go down well with the admins

The pop tart in me is partial to a bit of Gym Class Heroes, but you really can't go past the Benny Hill theme for season 2013.

it would certainly suit this season, but i think i'm going to be directing it more at the upcoming season, hence why i will be including the new draftees and trade gets. I don't think anyone would want a video that reminded them of 2013!

What about your exams, YDE?

yeah they're coming up pretty soon, but i can whack this together pretty quickly afterwards. I'm not starting this yet just getting an idea what songs i should be putting in.

I'll be doing another end of year video again this year. Some might remember i did one last year. It was just a quick one with a few pictures of each player and a song to go with them. This year will be much the same, but i'll be grabbing a video or two to put in for a few players. Also last year i did it before the draft and trade, and free agency period had finished which meant there were still some players in it who no longer played for us. This year i'll hang back for a bit so it includes all the new draftees and ofcourse HOGAN. I've included a poll for anyone to fill in to help me out with the song choice and i've included the links to each song(with lyrics), for those who don't know some, or any of the songs. If you select other then can you please post which you would like, and i'll see about getting them. All the songs i have listed i already have.

edit: probably 3 or so songs will be in the video

Bernie Vince is a proven midfield performer

Jarryd Lyons who is an inside mid might be part of the packadge

Not really sure what we would give up for that though

Knowing those south australians they would be licking their lips at the possibility of getting anyone called AISH

There is no way they would get pick 2 for those two. They would have to throw in a hell of a lot more to get that!

and what exactly does this have to do with the value of pick 2?

i'd get involved, but i have a lot going on at the moment with year 12 exams coming up. I'd be open to it next year though and hopefully from then on. However, i have to let you know, i've only ever played one full season when i was 15 and 4 games when i was 17 before i got hit by injury and am really not all that good.

i've been getting a few of these too, but if i just hit refresh its fine.

Yer daily meaning weekdays mate.

Here's a tweet from trade week radio yesterday: That's the first week! Catch us from 9am Monday with @camluke and @NathanBrown_07 LIVE from Etihad Stadium as trade period opens!

https://mobile.twitter.com/traderadio

ok well thanks for that. i'll stop trying to work out what the problem is.

Correct me if I'm wrong. But I'm almost certain trade week radio is only weekdays 9am to 5pm so that could be a problem.

Na it says on the website, daily 9-5. i do remember something about it only being weekdays though, maybe last year?

anyone else having trouble getting trade radio to work on the afl site? i can get onto it and it starts to load but then says it is unavailable.

our internet downloads have run out for the month, so it is back to dial up speed, but this is still loading pretty much instantly great work

back to normal for me now

mine has been slow for a day or 2, and like rollinson 65 all other sites are fast as usual.

don't know if this has already been posted, but Shane Mumford has agreed to a 3 year deal with GWS giants. That will at least limit them with the amount of cash they can throw around at players we might be chasing.
