    Preview 2025 Opening Round - GWS Giants vs Collingwood Magpies, 3.20pm AEDT Sunday 9 March, Engie Stadium

    Pretty disappointing pre season performances and outplayed by Carlton all over the park and the defence was well beaten but down to mids being so poor v the Blues and yes missing Green and Briggs made a big difference but shows the importance to the team of those 2. I thought Rowston might have...

    List Mgmt. 2024 GWS Giants List Management - Academy, Free Agent, Trade & Draft

    Draft is over and onto season 2025 and hoping to get career best seasons from several of the senior players (Hogan and Briggs 2024 career best seasons, not sure on others maybe Bedford and Green). Kelly and Coniglio will be hoping for injury free years. From the draft I think only 2 in Oliver...

    List Mgmt. 2024 GWS Giants List Management - Academy, Free Agent, Trade & Draft

    I know it must seems like it is asked every 2nd day but the club has 4-6 main list spots and 2 rookie spots? Paton from Saints and Bell from the academy. I actually thought if the club wanted another experienced defender Bonner ex Port and Saints would be an option but he may not fit the club...

    List Mgmt. 2024 GWS Giants List Management - Academy, Free Agent, Trade & Draft

    No that I am any way an expert or inside knowledge but I think a lot of live trading of picks will happen on th enight as clubs see where players are falling and opportunities will present based on this. Norths #2 may go beforehand as North and Demons or Tigers work out where their top players...

    Analysis 2025 GWS Giants - Best 22, breakout player(s), Congrats Sam Taylor AA & Tom Green KSM

    X should hold out until his FA year (2 more years I think) have a couple of good years permanent place in the side and then a 5-6 year contract at 800k to set him up for life. I think he has the ability just needs to tidy up a few things in his game (disposal efficiency and accuracy at goal) and...

    https://archive.md/ajbeb 18. Taj Hotton (GWS Giants) 19. Ollie Hannaford (GWS Giants) 25. Jonty Faull (GWS Giants) 39. Rhys Unwin (GWS Giants) The age phantom draft, not really any needs filled with the players picked and it could be a matter of bad research/not understanding the list

    List Mgmt. 2024 GWS Giants List Management - Academy, Free Agent, Trade & Draft

    Is Hotton coming back from an ACL? Not that keen on him not because of that but due to him being Vic metro and what happened to his brother and why he didn’t make it in the afl For Oli Back injury in his first year and #35 and not sure on how many games this year Although Taj maybe a talent he...

    Oppo Camp Non Giants AFL discussion

    Waiting to here the sanctions for the Demons players in the Joel Smith dealing drugs case. Not comparing to the Giants Wacky Wednesday (Different but the comparison more to do with player misbehaviour) but if that had been the Giants the suspensions would have been lengthy with the Vic bias

    List Mgmt. 2024 GWS Giants List Management - Academy, Free Agent, Trade & Draft

    My thoughts on the club and the picks I think the 1st rounders are at an awkward spot where clubs will not be looking to move back with the talent available in this draft and also the clubs with multiple picks keen on the talent available and needing the high end picks. Example Saints need to...

    List Mgmt. 2024 GWS Giants List Management - Academy, Free Agent, Trade & Draft

    apologies in advance as i am sure the answer is in the thread but how many list spots are available? 3-5 on the main list and 2 rookies? Depending on how they want to run the list

    List Mgmt. 2024 GWS Giants List Management - Academy, Free Agent, Trade & Draft

    A bit of revisionism here but 2 years ago at the draft a bit of talk here about taking Konstanty or Clarke and 1 delisted and the other a trade packet of chips (empty) and Caruso picking up The kid with the lid so well done for that decision. Not sure on the exact order they were picked

    List Mgmt. 2024 GWS Giants List Management - Academy, Free Agent, Trade & Draft

    Although the 3 leaving in Perryman, Cumming and Peatling is disappointing the compensation for the 2 free agents is good work by the club to push up the contracts offered by the Pies and the Crows and just hoping to get 2 okish picks for Peatling. Crows F2 and the combo of pick swaps between...
