Reimers has had a big part to play in the case against the bombers imo,

Jack watts and Jimmy toumpas have 20 contested possessions and 10 tackles each in a game

Whitfield signed a long term deal last year I believe

Mitchell imo is ahead of zac Jones and Brandon Jack, the swans clearly think he needs to work on an area of his game and he is developing that in the seconds

I Reckon that's a good idea, the top of the draft doesn't inspire me any more than the teens, the trade you suggested to the suns I think would be a huge win for both parties, if we could get that done with the frawley compo and add perhaps Corey Ellis and Lachie Weller, a couple of players who I think will be solid B+ for 200 games, Ellis has a really good left foot and can create off half back, Lachie has a really good turn of pace, but is also more than capable of winning the inside ball, the beauty of the paul roos game plan is every pick doesn't have to be a superstar, the player just have to be able to play a consistant role for the team

are you ENYAW?

bang on, unless a deal was offered up that meant us getting Dangerfield for Toumpas and a pick I would be shocked if he isn't with us next year and beyond

well played sir!

Just to add to that point, Dawes is a vic boy who has proven a great leader and I have no issue with the salary he is being paid. Davey despite finishing football has still not left Victoria and Clark when on the field imo showed he was obviously worth the money good decisions, bad luck.

I rate Treloar higher than Shiel personally, if it came to a choice, i'd happily take both

It would explain his form slump if he has received some fairly significant offers, the hardest thing for the Giants is so many of their players are going to increase in value so they need to be careful about handing out huge money I am not against picks 2 & 3 going to the Giants for Cameron and Shiel

I was watching the game with my mother in law and she looked at me at one point and asked what was going on? all I could say was the bombers had the dosage this week right.

GoIng to have to convince Brett Kirk to let him take the reins off him.

The rumour I have heard, is that it's Kirk, Fremantle have been informed that he's right in the mix and it's probably a good idea to plan accordingly that's coming out of Albury where Kirk comes from. The other part of the rumour, truth or not is that Roosy will sign a three year deal as director of coaching at the end of 2016, apparently he was hesitant to coach incase he got in and hated it but he's found some passion for the club and is emotionally invested in playing a role in getting this club back up to where he feels the oldest club should be. again just rumours I have heard around but if they're true it's exciting

How bout that for a bold prediction, Mark Robinson reckons the bombers can win the flag and hepell can win the brownlow

Phil Hughes is a bit of a flop isn't he

Mick was being a sook about his pack of spuds and ling was in the rooms

Riv would be in his ear bigtime

A captain who consistantly make basic skill errors that cost the team, it's a concern

I am still confident 500k for 4 years would net us band 1 compensation, his age and standing in the team would tip it

I reckon it will be around 650 k

So what's new with my favourite drug cheats?

Even Wright and mccartin haven't been convincing in my opinion, They will probably be decent players but compared to the last couple of years it seems a pretty weak draft, maybe the real gems are down abit lower, Corey Ellis, De goey, ahern, Weller they all look solid prospects, perhaps the Dom Tyson type deal could prove a huge winner this year

Roos Kirk Ling Stone Mcpherson Rawlings Allison Mathews looks good to me

agree on Mitchell, I find the boyd comparison interesting, I consider him to be ultra consistant but not someone who is going to be damaging, just an honest ball winner, I see Brayshaw as a little bit better than that, I think his kicking can be damaging, I found his national champs extremely disappointing compared to his lead up to them, perhaps he didn't handle the step up in quality very well, which could be a concern it's a pick I have no issue with trading, i'd rate Dylan Shiel a long way above Brayshaw to be totally honest, Petracca is the mid from the draft that really interests me, I reckon you have it bang on with Dustin Martin there, I reckon he will have bursts of brilliance but I don't rate his tank, I think he could fade in and out of games a little unless he can improve that.
