Does anybody think we would try to get Hopper from Richmond?
If so, how high a Pick would we give up to get him, assuming we pay all his salary.
I realise it is unlikely for many reasons, but thought I would ask anyway.
I don't think many move unless they ask.
They will get good picks this year, hope for a better 2025 and be in a position to get free agents in for 2026. I wonder though if Geelong would consider trading its first ( perhaps 13) for Hopper? Only if they miss out on Bailey Smith, and even then if...
Is dangerfield contracted for 2025.
I didn't think we could win 2024 flag before the season began, but I think with reasonable injury list we can win it. Need Swans and GWS to lose a bit of form though.
The real danger is if a player is out of contract at years end, and a free agent. Clubs down the bottom will realise there is no chance of the player staying , so will çhoose to trade mid year.
I don't know how this will work, will players association accept only players not playing much or on...
This has to end now. Ww1 was i believe at least 30 million death's, WW2 60 million deaths in Europe ( Russia alone 20 million), alot in the Pacific and Asia as well from Japan's aggression.
We have global warming, potentially new diseases transferring from Animals, threats from asteroids...
Perhaps should be 20/1 seasons or 15/2 seasons combined as the assessment of these players, but that excludes a 19,1.9 season so isn't perfect either as an assessment.
Are you joking? Surely he signs a 2 year or more deal at Hawthorn , unless he wants to play midfield and feels blocked there at Hawthorn.
Geelong can guarantee a start in the middle.
I am assuming pick 1 is 4000, picks 10 and later stay same for points. Just an example I gave, iy does seem the price yo move up one spot is a 2nd rounder, so I agree it may not be possible to make so many trades.
I think limiting the number of picks to match does a better job than other ways to...
You have to limit the picks to match, otherwise a team with say picks 6 ,24,42 can trade
6 for 7,25.
7 for 8,26.
8 for 10,28
10 for 12,30
End up with say 12,25,26,28 30, 24,42.
Then trade 12 for a F1, 24 for a F2.
Match a bid at 1 with 25,26 28,30 42.
So turn 6 24 42 into 1,F1,F2.
If only 3...
Only the IPL though. He would get mote than whatever Spencer Johnson got, I doubt ( hope) he doesn't need to waste his time in other T20 leagues, or T10 leagues
It wasn't good the collapse, but the UAE tournament based on one game is suspect.
Daniel Sams team lost 197 to 167, Sams took 1 for 47 of 4 overs, made 4 of 11 before being bowled by Overton.
Surely with 1.4 billion people, about 900 million living in poverty, 25% unemployment and 35% of kids...
I am actually, have been hit in head once as a kid, hit people a couple of times bowling.
I am surprised players get hit as much now, they need to use their bat's more.
Take a player at 14, hopefully a player you don't really want leaves and you trade
player,F3 for pick 24. Match with 24,32 .
If you have 14,24,32 and a bid comes at 12, trade 14 for a F1 if allowed.
Hello Eagles , how did harley go in a 2km timetrial?
Just wondering how much midfield he plays in 2024.
Would 60% back, 20% mid, 20% bench be a good guess of what he does?
If the points curve is adjusted ( say keep as is, but change top 10 as follows
1 is 4000
2 is 3500
3 is 3100
4 is 2700
5 is 2400
6 is 2100
7 is 1900
8 is 1700
9 is 1550
10 is 1400 ( keep the rest the same).
Then if you limit to 3 picks, also reduce discount to 10%, then to match a bid at pick 2...
Exactly. They also needed to replace a bowler with a Batsmen, probably Kuhneman.
I would try Nesser up the order, perhaps opening in place of Brown.
Can they sign somebody like how Perth signed Marcus Harris.
I think Geelong, but neither will be that great.
I expect an average of about 12 (9 to 15) wins for us, 10 ( 7 to 13) for them.
They need Dusty and Lynch to play well and stay healthy to have a reasonable forward line.
Is Khwaja out? It seemed a bad hit, but if no broken bones or actual concussion he might still play next test.
Maybe selectors will enforce a rest, gives another guy a chance to impress against a pretty good bowling attack
I saw a good video on ABC, but it doesn't give much hope to a solution.
Maybe a 4 state solution , 2 Jewish, 2 arab/ palestinian might work, I don't know how though.
AmericaJordan,Egypt, Qatar can hopefully agree on a way forward.
I suspect one problem is the officials in some of those countries get paid too much and there are more of them than needed ( I suspect South Africa especially), a bit like the AFL exec team.
