Well 2024 was a pretty fun year, unless you decided to watch the Dees play footy, but that's all behind us now. With summer only a month away from ending and Melbourne have the O Round bye, it's time to once again decide who in the squad makes up the Best 22 team. This'll mean that people will...
TurboWarriors looking to trade out one or all of Lachie Sullivan, Bruce Reville and ShaneMcAdam for an upgrade on Pick 65 if anybody has plenty of list space and prefers that over a heap of picks at the end of the draft..
apart from that, wont be too active..
It'll be time to get ruthless.
It should be a time that we get ready to miss drafts after 2025 mostly as the Tassie team takes a strong-hold on the Draft board.

The random trainer was Mitch Hardie who was delisted by Geelong this year.
Was a ball winning machine at VFL but was a tad unlucky not to play senior footy this year.
Most likely playing at Casey it seems.
...rant over :)
Xavier Lindsay is increasing his running load. Running at higher intensities and running further. So he is progressing.
ShaneMcAdam is still doing his boundary thing. Did some set shots at the end of training. Spent some time doing some inside torps. As you do.
Steven May did...
I dont think we need to worry. No one should be expecting him to really start playing AFL regularly until 2027. He needs muscle and needs to build a tank. He just needs time to grow into his body. Im not sure why some of the rhetoric. People panicking and judging Welsh for no reason.
...or not achieved anywhere near their potential because of their lack of fitness / desire. Damien Cupido, Nick Davis, Nick Stephens, ShaneMcAdam, Harry Schoenberg just off the top of my head.
Absolutely. Talent is there. But there is no debating his fitness right now.
Am I concerned...
...But Neal-Bullen finished third in the club’s best-and-fairest. And in totality over the last two seasons, Melbourne essentially swapped ShaneMcAdam for Neal-Bullen, with the pick sent in this year’s deal the exact one that was swapped for McAdam.
That isn’t great business.
ADELAIDE: B+...
At the time it would’ve looked like McAdam for 35-ish - a pretty good deal, but nothing outstanding. Keep in mind that in the games he played last year (although it wasn’t many), he looked pretty solid - would’ve been even better if he wasn’t suspended R1 and his momentum into the year was...
...the dirty work allowing stars to be stars; see his tagging job on Nick Daicos that led to McRae subbing him off.
The polar opposite of ShaneMcAdam in dealing with, obtaining, and recovering from injuries.
Articulate, well-spoken, well behaved, a leader who will represent your club in the...
This feels generous from the Crows. Unusual to see a deal done so quickly that's generous like this.
Good post on the Adelaide board about similar deals.
