    List Mgmt. 2025 List Management

    Hawks have gone in hard for an opposition club's best player and captain - humiliating his club and fans - without being willing to pony up a decent offer. They had better put up a player of value - probably one they don't want to lose - as well their top picks for this year and next for...

    Yes, that would be infuriating, but Brierty doesn’t explicitly say dipping into our future picks for this years draft hand. Maybe he means trading this years picks for another clubs futures? I doubt we can do much now in terms of upgrading other than a later pick with the Brodie trade..

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but won't Brisbane's picks 44 and 50 (formerly ours) get sucked up by points matching for their academy player anyway? So essentially, nothing changes but it got us in on the deal which gave us McVee while retaining a first round pick?

    Toast Welcome Judd McVee

    True - been a marathon just trying to read it all! Excited to see him rip it up next year too. I wonder what the plans for Simpson are now? We still need that wing position firing...

    Toast Welcome Judd McVee

    I think we did the best business - young talented player in a position of need yet to hit his peak that we paid the value agreed to between the two clubs. Went out and got the deal done. Starcevich trade is risk personified for both clubs. Great player, certainly worth more than McVee ordinarily...

    Toast Welcome Judd McVee

    You don't think 33 was needed with 12 to secure 19 and 23? 12 and 33 for 19 and 23 is good enough I think, depending on who we want of course. So there is a lot of angst about the 44 and 50 for 46 deal it seems. We probably needed a bit more to get the 19 and 23 deal over the line, and 44 and 50...

    I don’t know much about Jai Serong as a player, but this chase made me a little nervous. Bringing in 2 new defenders (incl McVee) into a backline that is already keeping out Walker and Simpson and Draper, and the great unknown of how it would affect Caleb’s game having his brother here… Maybe...

    List Mgmt. 2025 List Management

    I like the Rivers idea - fast, dynamic, tough, passionate.. Any ideas for a goalkicking tackling machine forward? Paul Curtis? Just a thought on the Merrett saga... interesting how the two meetings Mitchell has had with opposition captains got leaked to the media, making it extremely difficult...

    Strategy Changes: Round 9 Fremantle vs. Collingwood

    First quarter it seemed like they left Johnson unchecked because he doesn't do damage. In fact, he turns it over on a frustratingly frequent basis or retreats, and that demoralises. I hate saying this because he's trying his guts out and is everywhere for us, but I also understand calls for him...

    Review Fremantle Contest Another Game In South Australia

    I thought they’d go for Simpson too - losing Freddy and loading up on even more inside mids in Erasmus and O’meara. We lacked that pace and finishing that Simpson has shown signs of. I can’t help but think that MC feels pressure to select Erasmus and O’Meara.. big recruit, high draft pick.. It...

    Mega Thread Non-Freo AFL Discussion 2024

    Technically true I guess, but only one season with Longmuir and not really a team/coaching problem..

    Other than Cerra perhaps, and maybe Acres too, most players we’ve lost played better under Longmuir.
