    AFL Player 7: Indefatigable Zach Merrett

    You think pick 20~ this year and Henry Hustwaite for our Captain and best player was best for our club? Lucky you're not in charge of our recruitment...

    AFL Player 7: Indefatigable Zach Merrett

    The Hawthorn deal wasn't going to improve our hand last year. What I meant was we'd end up with a similar pick this year if we trade Merrett at the end of the year as what we wouldlve got from Hawthorn last year (ie their future first). Perhaps even a better pick depending on who (if) we trade...

    AFL Player 9: Sullivan Robey - 4 Goal, BoG Effort in the VFL - 28/3

    Yeh not for a debutant. If he was in his fourth season and had runs on the board, maybe. Up against one of the premiership favourites would be the ultimate baptism of fire...

    AFL Player 9: Sullivan Robey - 4 Goal, BoG Effort in the VFL - 28/3

    No pre-season coming out of his draft year. He'd be well and truly underdone and a huge risk of injury at the top level. Managed load in the VFL should be the cautious approach we take for a long term prospect, particularly given our recent run with injuries.

    AFL Player 7: Indefatigable Zach Merrett

    It was about Hawthorn to get the deal done. We didn't receive an offer until the day before trade deadline, so by all of our time you mean about 24 hours? If you mean we are suffering imagine how we'd be going without our best player... Not too dissimilar scenario with Joe, we ended up...

    AFL Player 9: Sullivan Robey - 4 Goal, BoG Effort in the VFL - 28/3

    Really hope we don't see him in the side for at least a month or two. Build him up in the VFL for the whole season if we have to.

    AFL Player 7: Indefatigable Zach Merrett

    We didn't need to put in any work. The onus was always on Hawthorn in this scenario. I don't begrudge our recruitment team for not seeking out fringe best 22 players for our club captain and best player...

    AFL Player 5: Elijah Tsatas

    If he's not good enough he's not good enough. Have we actually got anyone in the reserves that can play?

    AFL Player 3: Darcy Parish

    Absolutely putrid yet again. Time to make a stand and sack him for good. Not even sure he'd make an impact in the VFL at the moment...

    AFL Player 2: Jacob Farrow - AFL Debut against North - 28/3

    Quiet start but built in to the game towards the end when he took on a bit more responsibility. If he has the confidence I;d love him to be our key distributor from the backline and get the ball out of McGrath's hands. Whether he is ready for that or not I;m not so sure...

    AFL Player 21: Archie “The Enforcer” Roberts - Rising Star & Most Improved at the BnF

    The experiment is over. This guy is a bonafide half back and had an amazing year last year, why we are trying to convert him into a midfielder is beyond me. Slot him into Redman's role and let's move on.

    AFL Player 5: Elijah Tsatas

    Caldwell can't kick so no way I'd have him off half back. Archie Roberts was thriving there last year and I fully expect him to go straight back and fill Redman's role.

    Recruiting AFL Trade & Free Agency XIII

    No.

    AFL Player 5: Elijah Tsatas

    Time to give this spud a run. Parish can rot in the VFL and we can see whether this starch filled solanaceae can get up to speed with the big boys once and for all...

    AFL Player 6: Jye Caldwell

    Fumbles Caldwell had an absolute mare on the weekend. One of his worst games I've seen him play. Not quite droppable (yet) but boy does he need to sort his s41t out ASAP...
