Each year there is a bloke who gives his summary of the potential draftees. Can't rememberhis name, but have a feeling he is a pies supporter. He is also generally accepted as right on the money!! If anyone could shoot me a link to his summaries (if they know who I am talking about) that would...

Hey Bomber fans, Should WC get pick 26 from Richmond for Seaby, and it is looking quite likely we'll get pick 32 from WB for Hansen (Ray Swap) Would you think pick 26 and 32 would be a fair swap for pick 23??? Would give you guys an extra pick in the 2nd round - and push us above Freo's...

Hey Dees fans - as a WCE supporter - your pick 19 (or 17) look very attractive. Last year we traded two early to mid 30 picks to WB for pick 22. Do you think picks 26 and 36 would be fair compensation for pick 19? Would give you guys picks 1, 17, 26, 35, 36

Everyone is saying that we should reduce it to 2 or 3 days to remove the bullsh1t. But let's be honest - it is only our impatience that is the problem. Should trade day only be on Thursday and Friday - do you still not think we would have rumours and club statements about probable trades come...

Hey all - everyone has been talking about who'll get NicNat and Rich. To be brutally frank very few of us much of a clue who will take who - but would be sure that both teams would be happy after the fact. I think the more exciting part of the draft for the local clubs will be picks 17...

I have flogged this horse a bit this week - but interested to get people's thoughts on what Picks are worth for other picks As an example - let's presume my mob get pick 26 for Seaby. What would pick 26 and 36 packaged together be worth? Would Melb accept it for 19? Would Port for pick 22?

Gee this comment is sickeninoung - it's going to affect all teams fairly equally, but it doesn't make this draft any more "super" I do have a question about next year though. My understanding of the concessions is that GC have access to 10 17 year olds - however do those 17 year olds have...

Is there a list of players who go into this draft round with no contract for 2009? A little selfish from a WCE opinion - but would love to know the list of players who we could possibly get for free if deals fell through. I know Farren Ray fits into that category - but i hope we don't pick...

Is it accurate we only have spots for 4 more players on our list? plus 1 for Seaby assuming seaby goes in the mid 20's - we would have 5 picks inside 36 - anything after that would be wasted. assuming we want to shanghai a club and get a player in the PSD - we would only have 4 spots...

What would WCE need to give up to get pick 19? Seems another good year of local talent. And pick 19 would give us picks 18.19 & 20 which would mean we get a crack at 3 local lads before Freo get their second pick. Not sure what we could offer up - Seaby and pick 36? probably not edit...

I have something in the back of my mind that says a player isn't required for a trade. For example we could trade pick 18 and 20 for pick 10? Is this correct?

Hey pies fans - was going to post this on the main board but assumed that it would be shot down. As I see it the only bad action Alan Didak has done wrong is lie to his club and hang his mate out to dry - which is bad enough. Did he shoot the gun? Did he drive drunk? He shouldn't have...

Will be trading my royal blue for black this weekend. I'm not sure I have ever wanted a club that wasn't the eagles to win so much. Given the right royal spanking we are going to get from the Cats - a Melbourne victory would hand us the spoon. However a spirited Tigers performance, with...

Injury Update – Round 22 Dustin Fletcher – Adductor – Assess Jarrod Atkinson – Thigh – Test Kyle Reimers – Hamstring – Test Jobe Watson – Ankle – Test Andrew Welsh – Hamstring – Test The above is from the Bombers website!! Tis but a flesh wound Welshy - harden up!!!

http://news.realfooty.com.au/sport/more-eagles-to-miss-melbourne-match-20080813-3ulq.html Basically says the eagles have 25 fit bodies to pick from with Hansen and Panda going down. Should bode well for Scooter to hold his spot in the eagles squad and more importantly plug a hole in my (and...

By some ill twist of fate I have to do my trades this morning! Wanted to bring Richo in for Didak - any news on his injury? WIll he play? Looking at the run home - i really like the idea of having tigers - so was going to bring McMahon in for Cornes Was hoping not to have to trade this...

Browne's is a joke and the tribunal will take 8 nanoseconds to throw it out. Haven't seen Milburn's so can't comment - however the grading had contact as high - given my understanding of what happened - he never got Edwards high at all - his tackle was low. So therefore his contact was low!

Anyone else hear him after the game talking about Heath Shaw. Said something like "Good to see him score 117 SC points, which is better then the 28 he scored last week" Dennis replied - "that's right - he must be in your side" Fantasy footy is ever so slowly becoming more and more mainstream

Have been watching the NRL footy show in the wake of the SBW! They are crumbling - not sure the sport will be alive in 2 decades. Funny to hear them say = we have 3 other codes wanting to be number 1. The NRL are so far from number 1 it is laughable!! I feel sympathy in some regards, but...

Had a question for maggies fans about the collingwood defence. Last year I watched spellbound as a group of kids formed a formiddable defence and thought i was watching re-runs of my mob from the early 90's. I really thought that the magpie defence was going to become the best in the comp -...

Was a shocker week for me Burton, Porplyzia and Ling gone. Now my backups are falling over Myers at the start of the week and now Masten and Leuenberger gone for the season as well.

I haven't even made my trade and I am regretting it. Have 6 trades left and want to do the Palmer to Bartel trade. Have been stingy with my trades in the last month - and know now is a good time to be preparing my side for finals - but why do i feel tentative about this obvious trade...

Woosha ran the Perth marathon this morning! Got a time about 3.5 hrs - bloody good effort me thinks

Commentator's made a bit of it - but to me it looked like he was going for the ball - then pulled out at the last minute. Given the focus on head high hits - will be an interesting wait for the MRP

In a startling new development in this year's brownlow race, Gary Ablett jnr is expected to declare his voting finished for the year. It is believed he has enough votes already this season to secure the coveted medal. It is believed Ablett will look to bank his votes for the 2009 season. Many...

please!! we need our percentage to stay above the demons thanks!

nice start!!! ;)

Going for the league win - and have 7 trades left. Fairly comfortable with my squad - with the upgrades needing to be Rioli or N Thompson (the other to to be an emergency) Ling Palmer Maybe Medhurst I have 7 trades left and had planned on not trading for a few weeks. I'll be top of the...

Need to upgrade Ling and Palmer over the next few weeks. Wanted one proven gun this year (so thinking corey or bartel) - but wanted to take a a punt to save a bit of coin - and was thinking Hodge at the moment. Was debating between Hodge and Hayes - but considering I've got 3 saints already...

Starting to run low on trades - and think (barring long term injury) I have finally got my backline to as good as it can be. Cornes Guerra McPhee Shaw Milburn Goddard S Fisher The only one i am iffy on is Goddard - but i think his slump can be attributed to the saints mid year slump...
