    List Mgmt. 2026 Trade/Free Agency Discussion Pt 1

    The cost of a potential trade is higher because if we trade our first pick this year we're also losing access to the R2 compo following a matched bid, which wouldn't be factored into a trade because port get nothing from it. If we were another couple years into our rebuild I'd be excited but...

    Injury Injury Report - Tom Lynch 'Throat Injury'

    What a disaster this is, really just sucks any excitement away from watching our young group. The vibe at the club would have to be dismal making it hard to see us rising up any time soon. Draftees would be terrified of coming to our club

    List Mgmt. 2026 AFL Draft aka TMH Watch

    Even if we decide that taking a ruck is too big a risk (a mistake imo), I'm not been blown away by any of the other top contenders. A lot of season to go, but it doesn't appear that we'd be turning down a rolled gold mid to take HVH

    I think the chat about how few rucks are drafted in the first round is a bit overplayed. If you think about it, each team generally has 1 pure ruck, a handful each of forwards and defenders, and heaps of mids/running players. This means that on balance of probability only a couple rucks will be...

    VFL Academy Game Ikon Park Saturday 18th April 12.30pm - Live Stream Link In OP

    Has he had a good game other than the first one where he had 4 goals and 26 touches? I haven't watched any games but his statlines seem low

    News AFL overhauls Academy and FS bid matching, discussing draft lockout

    I understand that it's frustrating when it appears to be your turn to capitalise on an advantage and it's taken away, but I honestly think the handwringing about these changes is bordering on ridiculous. Clubs aren't having to overpay to get these players, they're just going to have to pay what...

    For people who have been watching HVH, what type of ruck is he? Seems to model his game on Sean Darcy, is that a concern with the shift to more agile rucks like English and Jackson?

    Would virtually guarantee holder of pick one to bid on a player as they would give up an end of first rounder if they didn't

    Any sense of the extent that those skills can be improved? I am a bit more positive on the footage than most here, love that he's hard at it and seems to have pretty good skills around the ball. 36 touches is not nothing and shows a lot of footy nous/ability to get it that many times. If he can...

    Player Watch #16 Josh Smillie - Quad - TBC

    Agree, don't think the jokes here are at his expense. Seems to me they're out of frustration because everyone is so desperate to see him play! Don't think you'll find too many places happier than this board when he finally gets a go at it

    Not many midfielders it seems!

    I'm pretty sure if we didn't go gibcus we were going to go Hobbs. Don't think Nas was on our radar

    Yeah I still think we're on the right track and am really excited to see them develop, but even so this week has been poor (as the last few weeks have been)

    Game Day Round 16 v Adelaide MCG Sunday June 29th 3.15pm

    Gee we look like a rabble, ill-disciplined and players really don't look like they have each other's backs. I'm not worried about our trajectory but some of the chat that we're lightyears ahead of other rebuilding teams (e.g., north, wce) a little premature
