One advantage of 7th
Just realised over the weekend one advantage of a 1st round loss rather than second round loss in finals is it puts us in middle 6 bracket for the draw in 2024.
Sydney, WB, Adel, ess, Geel ,
as opposed to Coll, Bris, Melb, port, GWS, Carl
Obviously always want to win but is a small upside.

Re: No trades with swans
Unfortunately, which was a trend of the time the players picked and those taken in trade were not quality. Joel Smith could have been anything and again the injury curse struck thanks to Richard Osborne and collingwood. Hemley, Nugent, Robert Neill and Josh Kitchen. Neill played in 1997 GF coming in...

Re: Pick #10
We need a selection in 18-30 for Henry from Freo. I previously had flagged something like this using a second round pick comp if Gresh left which would add 200 points to GC. and get us higher up the first round. I don't think we will be involved in such swaps and i get nervous with the history SOS h...

Re: Phantom Draft
Will be interesting to see what happens. If you believe what you hear on radio top 11 inc 3 GC academy players , are clear of the rest and then bit of a lottery. Melb, thanks to freo's terrible season, also a contender for the early pick with CG or may even trade up to 1 with WC who need multiple pl...

Re: Bytel
Don't have an issue with the delisting, especially as we need to make some tough calls on those players 25-35.
4 gone, maybe a couple more via trade or delist but need to find that sweet spot between clean out and losing depth

I wonder if Melbourne will look at him seeing Dunstan did his ACL . Richo is there and he is a similar player but younger and will provide them depth. Will be interesting.

Re: Post-match analysis
What a great year. If you told me we were playing finals at the beginning of the year i would have laughed yet we did. As for the game GWS were better. That's it, we were out played by a better team. They took out our big weapons and moved the ball too quickly for us. All the young guys got a taste...

Re: Liam Henry
If free agent it is all based around the deal he gets which determines what the compensation is. This is then adjusted to how many times the club pissed off the AFL during the year and what they are likely to bring in financially in the future

Good nights sleep and calm head it is clear to me the progress that was made this year was a foundation step towards sustainable finals appearances.

Re: Liam Henry
saying between 15-25 will be required. Probably depends what happens with Gresham to some extent. Always have futures too, OOC actually helps as we have seen puts player in a powerful position.

Re: Cordy or Dougs
Inside 50 Wilkie as can out mark him .
IF he pushes up hand off to Webster to follow up the ground as Wilkie can play inside 50 on mediums
Days of straight 1 on 1 are rare unless FF

Has had a horror run with injury , on way back mid season and does a calf. No way could have played this year after that at afl level. Was a top 10 pick and top 5 in B & F so compensation would want to be reasonable. Be at pains to see him go before others . Just because another club enquirers d...

Re: EX-SAINTS OF THE LAST DECADE AT OTHER CLUBS
Agree with most. Stanley was a mistake - never really tried as a ruck properly at Stkilda. Made worse drafting Goddard at 21 who didn't work out at all. Names such as Steele, Touk Miller, Maynard, Mitch McGovern, Dougal Howard, Langdon drafted afterwards doesnt help - also that stanley is now a Pre...
