    Changes Round 12 vs Magpies

    Agree with this, he wasn't able to run defensively and close space yesterday. It wasn't through lack of effort, he was trying to go but couldn't. He's a young KPP, with a good endurance base, so I'm sure it will come with more pre seasons, but I don't think he has the running capacity to play on...

    Changes Round 12 vs Magpies

    In - English, Baker Out - Croft, Cleary Croft wasn't terrible, but just let the young talls deveop in the VFL and in Crofts case some time behind the ball in the VFL. Baker isn't a game changer, but like his effort, had 27 in the VFL today. Rotate him back in. Pleaseeeeee Cody in for the VFL 🙏

    Dogs hold on for the win against the Dees

    Gutsy win, the quality wasn't always there, but the effort was. Naughton's work rate was enormous, and those repeat efforts on the wing late, in particular, saved the game. West's 2 50m against were infuriating, but his forward half pressure and run down tackle of Steele made up for it. Lobb...

    Preview Changes Round 9 vs Zak B

    Emmett has to come out his week, its completely irresponsible to manage a young person in his first year of AFL this way, they are ruining him currently. Play Smith and let Emmett and Croft develop in the VFL. Dolan is also a mile off, send him back and let him build confidence also. Davidson...

    Preview Changes versus Swans

    Yikes! 3 of our best 4 talls all out injured at once and Naughton playing injured. Libba out, Bont and Richards playing hurt. JOD, Weightman out and that is the worst injury crisis you are likely to see anywhere this year. Guessing Smith and Emmett play 50% game time each in the ruck? Lewis...

    Strategy Trade and List Management Thread Part 8 (opposition supporters - READ posting rules before posting)

    Just have to get Butters, pay the price and get it done, if it's 3 x 1st rounders and $1.8 x 8 then just do it. We almost never get the opportunity to recruit top 10 players, in their prime. The fact we are up to our eyeballs in the flag race emphasises the importance of getting a player like...

    Review Round 1 review: Dogs discombobulate Plastics 133-52

    It's been nice going into GWS games relatively confident, whether we just match up well against them or we are in their head, I felt good going into yesterdays game and it was never in doubt. The difference in structure and game plan defensively is obvious but the personnel is proving to be a...

    Will White is a Luke Power pick, liked him from his time coaching Carlton's VFL side.

    Strategy Trade and List Management Thread Part 8 (opposition supporters - READ posting rules before posting)

    Dont hate the earlier suggestion on here of Pick 12 for Butts and 37 for Buderick, especially if we could get 48 back from Adelaide to use on Darcy. Means we would get Butts, Buderick and Darcy for pick 10, helps with 2 of our 3 glaring list holes in KPD and small defender. Use Dolan, Jones...

    Strategy Trade and List Management Thread Part 8 (opposition supporters - READ posting rules before posting)

    This seems the most likely way it would get done and best part for us is it is quite realistic given Flanders wanting to take the $$$ at the Saints and GC needing points. Would our pick 10 work for GC? Or would it be too high and needing us to split it with a 4th club.

    Fixture 2026 Fixture Discussion

    Not playing Geelong at Marvel this year was a marketing opportunity the AFL normally don't miss, given the Sniff stuff. I'm sure Geelong would of requested not to play us at Marvel, knowing that Bailey wouldn't be able to help himself in response to the abuse from over the fence. For this reason...

    Strategy Trade and List Management Thread Part 7 (opposition supporters - READ posting rules before posting)

    The writing was on the wall for Coffield when we drafted Selwood and Walker in the MSD. After seeing the VFL on the weekend I'm confident he's now behind Selwood, Jaques and Walker (although he played forward) I'd keep Baker and JJ on 1 year deals. Would be ok if they let either/both go though...

    If they get Aleer and Ryan at $700k a year each and King gets back they will be paying 5 blokes $5 million next year who combined for only 67 games this year (De Koning and Ryan played 42 of those) :oops: Madness.

    Good on the Saints for having a go, even if it blows up on them, it really couldn't get any worse for them anyway. Glad we (reportedly) aren't going to match the Saints with a 5th year for JSOS, I'd consider going a little higher with the $$$ though if it gets it done. We really need to...
