    Preview Round 2, 2019 - North Melbourne vs. Brisbane Lions

    After such an amazing performance last week, I'm a bit nervous about this game. If we can get the win then our season is set up beautifully! We need to convert our chances better in the first quarter this week, we don't want them getting a sniff.

    Round 2 Trades

    My first instinct was no trades, but now I'm starting to consider Oliver to Fyfe. If Oliver goes ~80 again then I'd pull the trigger, so I'm somewhat tempted to do it now and potentially bank 40-60 points when Fyfe goes huge against the Suns. Thoughts? I have Brouch too (and Mrouch) and while...

    Non Lions Discussion 2019

    Billy seems to be claiming some sort of inside information, so perhaps you should all listen to him? I'm simply relaying the words of my Geelong-based friend. Words seem to get around that city, though not necessarily accurate ones. I went to the Geelong board to check the legitimacy before...

    Non Lions Discussion 2019

    Wasn't sure where to put this but word out of Geelong is that Nakia Cockatoo might be entertaining an offer from a QLD club. Would be a welcome addition in my eyes.

    Training 2019 Preseason

    Hey everyone, any info on how Witts is tracking? I'm beginning to consider him at R2 in SuperCoach. Likely don't have the balls to start him over Goldy etc. but I see him as a break-out candidate. 26 years old and 80 games played (around the same as Grundy at the start of 2018), averaged 105...

    Position 2019 Rucks

    Am I crazy for considering Witts at R2? Averaged 88.6 last year and 94.3 the year before, sitting at 480k and should be coming into his prime (80 games, 26 years old). I could see him jumping to 100-105 average. Could also be a disaster.

    Stoked to have picked up Tom Berry! Hopefully our next pick is live.

    Roast Death-Riding 2019: Collingwood, Gold Coast and Fremantle

    I'm pretty confident that the Pies first pick will be better than 17-18. They managed 15 wins with a bottom-six difficulty fixture,so we'll see how well they do with a much harder one (in theory) next season. It's easy to forget that until finals time, they had only beaten one top eight side...

    Traded Dayne Beams [traded with #41 and #43 to Collingwood for #18, #56 and future 1st round pick]

    The "two firsts" in the Gibbs trade were 10 and 16, so unless you're planning on finishing 10th next year and giving us pick 9, you'd have to accept less in return for the trades to be equivalent. Not that there's actually any reason they need to be. That said, two firsts with nothing back...

    News Oh wow, oh heavy, heavy, heavy - Lachie Neale trade thread (5, 19 & 55 for Neale & 30)

    Surely the Hawks aren't keen on picking at 53, 90, and 108? Perhaps we can package up some picks to land their future first rounder? Double death ride (assuming we trade Beams)!

    News Marcus Adams trade thread (Adams for 32 & HAW's future 3rd)

    Even Dylan is coming around to this trade! Get it done!

    2018 Trade and FA thread (opposition supporters post in Trade Hypotheticals thread)

    If we hold out on trading Beams until the Neale deal is done, and then do proceed with trading Beams, we will likely have a live pick in the top 20 (pick 18) you'd think.

    News Oh wow, oh heavy, heavy, heavy - Lachie Neale trade thread (5, 19 & 55 for Neale & 30)

    Pretty sure players can't be on-traded, no.

    News Oh wow, oh heavy, heavy, heavy - Lachie Neale trade thread (5, 19 & 55 for Neale & 30)

    My assumption is that Freo are bluffing and still keen on securing Hogan, but want to put the squeeze on us re: Neale. But it seems like an easy bluff to call, unless I'm missing something? Just wait. They can't get Hogan without our pick 5, and they can't get Lobb with their current pick 23...

    2018 Trade and FA thread (opposition supporters post in Trade Hypotheticals thread)

    Can only assume it's just a tactic to put the pressure on for the Neale trade and that they'll deal for Hogan once it's done...but holy shit, Bell is doing a number on Freo. You finally have Hogan willing to move and you're going to let it slide just to appease one man's ego?
