Wtf is going on with all of this Hawthorn rubbish? Carlisle has personally rung Richo to reiterate he is as good as guaranteed to be a Saint. His manager has been with Bains a lot of the day, has confirmed he will get his client to the Saints. Watch the interview with Carlisles manager, he couldn't ...

you people do realise that we would have 23 24 and 25 sent to GWS for pick 8 if the drug cheats accepted the deal. We just down grade 5 to 8 and still get Mathesion. Get with the program you guys - sheesh. Exactly, well put mate. Even if we upped our offer for Carlisle to include our third pick (#4...

I think if Dodoro really wanted to one up St Kilda and send a message, Jake Carlisle would be adequately compensated in the form of a very large paper bag.

Should've known from the start dealing with the injectors would be a hellish ride.

This scenario would be ideal - not including lower draft picks or specific players going or coming back) Saints give 5, 24 & 2016 (1st) Saints get 8, Kelly, late teens pick Late teens pick goes to Dons for Carlisle Freeman for our 3rd and a player 8, Kelly, Carlisle and Freeman. We just clocked ...

Woodward interests me as a low risk rookie while he recovers from an acl. To be fair, he is probably an injury bust, but the guy can play if he got on the park long enough.

this is an interesting way to present all the draft options- in a year where obviously no one stand out http://www.theage.com.au/afl/trading-and-drafting/2015-afl-draft-the-combine-harvester-20151005-gk1i20.html i had a quick look and seen this, --- Daniel Rioli (16/04/1997, 179cm, 65kg.

650k, which is closer to the figure, is nothing for us. First of all we've been front loading our contracts and haven't paid our vets from the vets list simply to get to the minimum 95%. Joey, Roo, Dempster, Fisher could all be moved to the vets list and you realise signing Carlisle for market rate ...

Who else is feeling like a sardine in the queue? I gather its crowded? Hope you get a good seat. I luckily have my seat so its Transport at 10 for a round and then the car park for a few more and then into the ground around 2.20 for the game. It was pretty crowded and a mad rush but got there. Seat...

As much of a what the? type choice Young is... Surely Toumpas is going to take the cake for Melbournes biggest flop (which is harder to achieve than the ultimate)... Picking Jimmy over Wines will haunt them for decades

Cripps shows tiny little glimpses of Rob Harvey - mostly just in the way he hits up targets on the lead - very Harvey-like. But he walked out on us, it was never our choice to keep him or not. Note I'm not saying he is anywhere near Banger in any way, just here and there you see a little something -...

Surely not...

Missed out. Gates open @ 8am don't they?

I dare say Freeman will probably wait until trade week, or at least until Treloar and/or Aish have had their trades confirmed.

Before anyone gets too carried away we are trying but more likely will be next year rather than this year. Are you Brett Anderson? You would think this year, with last years injury and the speculation surrounding it he'd be at his cheapest. Next year, well, the footy world will be reminded of how r...

Word around is that our next years first rounder and possibly also the year afters first rounder are being talked about in the Irish Pubs on Cavill Avenue. Any connection Jaxons? A bit ambiguous for me. Are we talking a Gold Coast Irish player? O'maybe check their players list Yea for some reason I...

Why bother OM, reason, or interesting discussion doesn't exist in this one. What he doesn't realise is that his posting style has actually driven numerous posters away from this site - hey Jaxons, feel free to jump over to BF buddy, your info would be more than appreciated over there. I'd believe t...

With Freo trying to snag McCarthy I'd be offering pick 5 for Lachie Weller & pick 18. Freo can then use pick 5 to get Cam McCarthy. That seems very high for a pick 13 last year. Picks 13 (Weller) & 18 for pick 5 sounds quite reasonable to me. Heck id even throw in a late pick. Btw Trout rat...

Rumoured that we rate our top 5 in the draft well ahead of the rest of the draft class and that Schache isnt considered to be in our top 5 No mention of whether any academy players are in this top 5 So here's my guess Weitering Mills Hopper Parish Tucker I'd be very surprised if Matho and Francis w...

Knightmare has listed these names from WA as the ones to watch - all in the 2016 draft. Sam Petrevski-Seton Sam Powell-Pepper Jeremy Goddard Cameron Zurhaar Josh Rotham Sam Petrevski-Seton made this years U18 AA as an under-ager. Rotham will be an out and out star. Wast old by the same bloke who wo...

He is all class but wouldn't come cheap. Is there anything we could add to our second round pick for him? I'd su...

Whilst we are fitter and running out games better in both the ones and twos - you only have to look at Billings throughout this year to see why Basil was moved on. Jacks issues this year can be attributed to his fitness management, and he is not alone. The review at the start of the year after all ...

We couldn't select Cripps unless it was with pick three. And I'd take Billings every day of the week. That draft was a bit of a super draft, lucky for us we had three first rounders who all look like they could potentially be a graders. Luke looks to be playing injured, he doesn't seem 100%, but he ...

Paddy was selected due to the fact this year was always going to be a midfielders draft. Which sounds quite silly considering the top three could be Francis, Wietering and Schache. Rest assured though, if we get Parish, he will be twice the player Petracca and Brayshaw ever will be, would be a clear...
