Play on ?!?!?! FFS

am I happy to see Collingwood in the GF??

Hogan !!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Same as ours but 50s got paid !!! Pies moving into the area. Had to stand !!!

Giants losing composure

Jack Darling to the Dees. Two big years. He’d be a huge addition whilst we’re in the window. With 50+ inside 50s every week, he’d kick 3-4 goals regularly each week. Cost ? a future 2nd round?????

Bring in Dew. Was rated as the assistant at the Swans.

Screw you Collingwood

Cox. Becoming the most hated bloke in footy.

Umps !!! There’s an orange team

It’s just a bitter taste. IT SHOULD BE US.

Frawley had been an All Australian for the Dees. Mckay is a long long long way off that ranking.

Still think a phone call to Tom Fullerton (Lions) might be worth a go. He kicked 30.22 in the VFL as a ruck/forward. He is a big bodied ruck/forward that could relieve Maxy in the 6-7 minutes a quarter but also be capable ahead of the big sticks. Means we’d let JVR be a permanent forward and potentially cover if Petty was delayed in his return.

North seeking pick 3 compo for Mckay North seeking pick 11 mid first round charity North seeking access to Sanders via NGA with a special charitable exception to match any bid North has pick 2 North already has LDU, Simpkin, Wardlaw, Larkey, Sheezel , Thomas and Phillips. Msybe give them 12 bonus points at the start of next year ps AFL response to Dees in 2014 after asking for assistance AFL concluded that while Melbourne has a poor on field record in recent times, this does not of itself constitute “exceptional circumstances” or a justification for awarding priority draft selections.

What a soldier. Jimmy was heart and soul. Always gives 100%. Loved his celebration after the 2022 Grand Final.

Austin Van Der Struyf

Simply ditto

@Pennant St Dee yes like to see how SVR goes. He had a few “nearly” games in the championships. Got his hands to marks but could not quite hold them. Thought he might not get picked in the draft. Needs more gym time obviously but imv could still be a potential rookie for the Dees. Imagine the double Roooeeeyyyy from the crowd !!!

@Pennant St Dee Yes that’s why i used the term “potential” A graders in my post. I wouldn’t subscribe to all but often you find it’s not just the top 10 (though more likely) that go on to be the very best. I do like Hardeman for his hard running, physical style of play and yes his delivery. Wouldn’t mind adding him if we had a pick around the 20ish mark. His footskills are very good and has the Rivers type intensity for a half back. Obviously lots of AFL manipulation, trade and pick swaps and complex sudoku numbers to go before we know our likely draft picks.

From media reports, looks like 1-Eagles Harley Reid 2- Suns (Academy match) Jed Walter 3-Kangas Coby Mckercher 4- Kangas (Mckay gift compensation 🤬) Daniel Curtin 5- Hawks Zane Duursma 6- Bulldogs (trade from Suns) Ryley Sanders 7- Dees … options left would be … bid on Ethan Read (Suns to match) … then choice of Caddy, Watson, Wilson or O’Sullivan. Right now I’d be picking Darcy Wilson as a running creative goalkicking mid. Love to see how we can grab that Suns pick.

It’s an obvious NO.

Chol? I vote No

He’s good. No. He’s actually very very good. Reminds me of Will Ashcroft or Sam Walsh as highly skilled running Mids. All class. Definitely a top 6/7 pick.

Here's to an extremely exciting period ahead for our great club. I can’t wait to see what we can achieve over the next few months. this didn’t age very well at least for the boys team

Off to Sydney … goodbye and well yeah just goodbye
