  1. Yes just double checked. Apologies. Wishful thinking

    Agree. Players would hold for the premiership chance. I’m sure the group can see we are a big chance at the prize this year and for the next few.
  3. Sorry the 4th quality mid was South Australian Luke Valente. Solid build. Good pace. 183cm. Skilled on both wings. Tackles well. Captain for SA under 18s in 2018. Whilst not as flashy as a few teammates, Valente is the real deal. At pick 25-28, he would be an absolute steal.

    Yes yes yes. Gaff would be another star and make our midfield completely awesome. I think we would have to consider the retirement of Vince to fit him in.
  5. Isaac Conway was very impressive as a midfielder against Casey today. Classy and mature body. At 23, maybe he’ll get a look in on a rookie list. Has the talent IMO.
  6. 4 quality mids likely to be available to the Dees if we maintain a pick around 26/27. Mitch Riordan STINGRAYS quality skilled midfielder. Though likely top 15-17 Xavier O’Halloran JETS great inside leader type mid. Again could go around 20. Xavier Duursma POWER I hope the Dees get this kid. Son of Jamie. Knows where the footy is and gets it. Probably will be there around 25. Smokie remain young Hudson Garoni from the Bushrangers. Goalkicking key forward
  7. Petracca Maynard Joel.Smith. Bradtke. Gawn. Starting 5 Jesse H also a star baller

    I like it
  9. Can those making comment please read the second paragraph. The Weid is a keeper

    Shiel is a star. I’d offer a 6-year contract worth $800,000 per year. But we would be unlikely to have such room under the salary cap plus we have NOTHING to trade.
  11. Watch Pies make a big play for Sam Weideman. Pies will offer 1st round pick. Pick 8-9 (pies 1st round) for Weid and our pick 26-27 (2nd round). F-orf is my reply. We have invested and he is ready to rock in 2019. Could be our Hogan-Weideman-Tommymcd forward era.
  12. Great game tonight by Salem
  13. Kent is probably the only best 22 player missing but we can cover a small forward with about 8/9 players Mckenna and Vandenburg must be really struggling and careers probably doubtful King is 50/50 type and needs a good run of luck I like Maynard’s style and would like to see him back as a tough competitor 5 missing is about as short a list of injuries as we have got in about 20 years!! Fingers crossed it remains low
  14. Clearly back where he belongs in the midfield

    Didn’t we spend our money on Lever. We freed up Wattsy $ to afford Lever. What’s left? Only if we cash in Vince and Lewis.
  16. 11 players mentioned as injured (weeks) provided Petracca is back and Hogan is okay. Of the 11, really only Viney and Salem out of our best 22. Hoping they are only 2 weeks away and we can setup for a big run of wins.
  17. Spargo - Rising star night nomination?????
  18. Mystery of the week. Haven’t read anything but MFC may be protecting his privacy. Would love to see Balic develop and fulfill potential.

  20. Great story. Great news. Go Charlie
  21. Needs to run into form. Still in recovery mode.
  22. Jack Watts will play in September. Guaranteed. His former teammates will not. Goodwin on thin ice now
  23. JACK STILL SETTLING INTO POWER LIKE LEVER IS SETTLING INTO DEMON GAME PLAN!
  24. Ridiculous. We continue to find ways to fuc$@(/!kup everything. McCartney will be gone by season end
  25. Good return. Ahead of Harmes, ANB, Melksham, Vince and Lewis. Definitely retain for next 5-6 weeks to pickup pace of the game again. Definite keeper
