I'm not sure how our recruiters rate this year's draft crop, but knowing our recent trade history, I wouldn't be surprised if we look to trade our pick 54 alongside our/or Freo's first round selection next year to lock in another first round selection this year. I wonder if we could nick the Bulldogs' pick 11 as part of a potential trade for Schache? Out - Tomlinson, Pick 54, 2023 First Round In - Schache, Pick 11

Loved this. I always had a lot of time for Jayden, it's a real shame to lose him but I can see him getting plenty of opportunities at the Eagles. He was always at his best when he was allowed to run and carry with the footy. Shame teams worked him out around 2018. Kudos to him for temporarily reinventing himself as a small-medium forward in 19-20 and then again as a lockdown defender in 21-22.

Any of Fremantle's successful attempts at landing a key forward Jesse Hogan - Pick 6 and 23 Cam Mccarthy - Pick 3

Good lord. I haven't seen much of Louge, but is he even remotely close to being worth that amount of money? That has salary dump written all over it come 2026.

No, but our recruiters typically hold their cards pretty close to their chest. I thought that Lachie Hunter would've been mentioned but no dice.

"Melksham and Hibberd will both be with us next year"

Harmes going nowhere according to Tim Lamb.

Take it with a grain of salt, but Lloyd on Trade Radio (what? It's a guilty pleasure), just said that this seems more unlikely than likely at the moment.

Whether there's any truth to the rumours or not, I can't see Port prying Pickett (say that three times fast) away from us if they plan to land both JHF and Rioli this off season.

Apologies, misread the stats page. Has games from both 2021 and 2022 listed. VFL Stats - Sam Weideman (aflmstats.com)

I heard Mick and Keith will call it quits after their next tour to join Geelong on five-year deals.

Strangely failed to crack the top ten of Casey's B&F (congrats to Jimmy Munro by the way). For comparison, JVR finished sixth in the count and finished with the same number of games and goals for the year. EDIT: Weid only played 11 games this season for Casey. Misread the stat page!

Clarry to win and equal the record for most B&F's for Melbourne alongside Stynes and La Fontaine. Still only 25...

Missed the Granny due to due other commitments and just caught up with the highlights. Out of curiosity, Did BT and Brayshaw know that they were calling a Grand Final? I've heard more enthusiasm come from VFL commentators.

Mitch White claims BOG honours!

Jake kicks his fourth after some clever work from JVR on the wing.

Chandler, White or Dunstan.

Quiet day on the scoreboard for JVR but he's still had some important moments.

Brown kicks his second and it's now officially party time!

Jakey boy!

Another goal saving mark by Woewodin Jr.

Important early goal with more rain potentially on the way. Going to be hard for the Sharks from here (touch wood).

Laurie with a huge goal before 3/4 time!

Holy moly there have been some terrible umpire decisions in this game.
