Re: Who’s better, Bruce or Boyd?

The last time we played WB we beat them 17.14 to 14.5 So how come all of a sudden they are a better team than us? Look at the stats from that game We add Hannebery, Hill and Ryder and lose Bruce Plus we add the unknown of King and Bytel - and anyone else we snag who is an AFL known contributor So w...

Good player but not one we need surely?
I guess having him down back doing Battle's role might free Josh up to go forward? If we trade Bruce it might be handy to have a new forward freed up.

Back to the Rich vs Geel game. Did anyone notice how many Richmond goals were set up by Rhys Stanley mistakes! Yes, he had a shocker...that one where they were away mid last quarter, only for him to handpass into the air 5m behind the Cats player on the burst, killed the game. He's been talked up h...

Re: What’s the latest on Jack Steven?

Geelong isn’t getting one over us, Jack Steven is. Basically reading between the lines he’s said he doesn’t want to play football unless it’s at Geelong. This gives us no bargaining power, contract or not. Geelong knows we either take what they’ve got or pay a bloke $600-800k to not play for us aga...

Re: Brad Crouch

Geelong will not give up Constable as part of the Stevens trade Having a look at their midfield on Friday night, if he's any good they'd be mad to give him up. Of course, he's already had a reasonable run in their midfield this year before being omitted, maybe just making sure they get another pre-...

Have there been any reports of him nominating the Saints or anyone else? This is painfully drawn out, I'd l...

The MRP are just squaring up for their lack of action over the Bont incident the week before...should never have played this weekend regardless. He's a hard player to love, hope he enjoys sitting on the pine.

Re: Dockers want pick 5 for Hill

The trade for Hill is red hot going to happen. I think Pick 5 is ok given we are getting an AA wingman at 26. Unless we split pick 5 with 11 and 13 with GWS and give 11 to Freo for Hill. Interesting times. Remind me again when he was All Australian. That would be difficult...but I can remind you th...

Re: Ryder to Saints (two year deal)

I honestly don’t get why we want Ryder he’s 32, got dodgey ankles and won’t come cheap. I’d rather get Stanley back as part of the Steven deal with the cats plus Constable, we’d have to throw in a late 3rd round pick as well, and have 2 mobile rucks who can both go forward. Far out, Steven and a 3r...
