    Prediction Changes: Round 4 Vs Carlton

    I don't see too many changes. Emmett and Johnson time on ground was the lowest, so maybe one of them needs a rest. Hopefully a few players have a good game at Peel to put some pressure on the side. Once again, I think Simpson should be the sub but O'Meara will more than likely keep it.

    First 7 rounds

    Brisbane (H) North (A) Crows (H) Carlton (N) Port (A) West Coast (H) Bulldogs (H) Brisbane at home and Port away are more than likely losses. Eagles at home is likely a win. North away must be a win if we play finals. That leaves Bulldogs Home, Carlton Neutral, Crows home to setup up our...

    Was the AFL better, when clubs were given priority picks?

    Shorter rebuilds Greater spread of grand final winners Especially with free agency, you could argue that priority picks are needed more.

    Opinion 2020 vs 2021 Draft picks value. Are Vic players under rated in 2020?

    With so many players with very little exposed form, there is a going to be a lot of misses early in the 2020 pick especially with the Victorian kids who have not been playing. It will be interesting to see what happens. Are 2021 picks are lot more valuable, as players like Sam Sturt don't get...

    Are too many players eligible for Academies ??

    With 10 of the first 20 players in this years draft like coming from academies, do these need to be wound back? I would like for all players in the first round to be available to all, and only players after that are eligible as academy picks. This would make the system a lot fairer.

    What type of players does our list need? Pace, Skill, Class and and goal threat. A winger, forward flank and forward pocket are the 3 positions that we need, plus more good midfielders (ideally with speed as we are a bit one paced). Which players do you want to target? Collingwood have very...

    Our list balance is ******* mess. Has anyone put any thought into it what so ever. I am finding this trade period the most frustrating ever, and if we get Lobb it will be like us chasing Tarrant all over again. Rucks - 5 players into 1 position. (Far too many rucks) - no more than 3 is...

    Why is CBA holding up contracts?

    Why is the CBA holding up new contracts? Why can't they just say 600k multiplied by any increase in the salary cap? Or are playing just using this as an excuse to not sign a contract.
