GWS, weary and wallowing in their own bathwater after knocking off the reigning premiers versus a young but fresh North Melbourne side eager to surprise the pundits.
Looooong odds but I’m hoping for a committed well organised hard at it competitive performance at the very least and we should...

Interesting. Would have to be a hefty, like an early first or two firsts. Maybe North's warchest actually works?
With the news circulating this morning in the press that Josh is locked in. Lets hope we get a press release from Giants HQ this morning and a press conference after training.

Stay tuned for official update.......
Whisper is JoshKelly recovering from Glandular Fever after being diagnosed a month ago. Info has come from an ex-team mate, can anyone confirm. Apparently club hoping they can get him right for round 1.
...the really big big dollars.
Not a free agent in any form, so trade will need to be done.
At this stage, I'm saying the club that gets JoshKelly will be paying him $1.5m a season over seven years (minimum) and trading two first round picks as a minimum.
So what's he worth in terms of...
Welcome aboard Josh. Will look very good in the red white and blue. Imagine him running alongside The Bont kicking it long to the Schace-nator and Leaping Billy Gowers! Exciting times. Bookmark it.
Any of you people know of an 11 out of 10 that we can hook up with Chook?
Listening to the Dyl Podcast he is single and living solo.
We need to find him a babe that is firmly entrenched in Sydney and has no desire to set foot in Melbourne for at least 8 years.
Lachie Whitfield has found one...
Hey Norf Flogs
I cannot wait to race to Arden street for some public urination after we beat you pack of Muppets this weekend.
Higgins can run around sniping all he likes. Bernie will eat him alive.

AFL Players' rankings are currently being revealed in parts on AFL.com and the top 5 players remain hidden.
JoshKelly has yet to be named so unless he hasn't been voted in the top 50, he is ranked in the top 5 (Likely scenario).
He now sits ahead of a long list of A-grade players including...

March 28 - Tom Browne reports a godfather offer from North Melbourne to...
Is the second spike in JoshKelly's form the result of knowing he's worth 1mil over 9 years?
He's so confident at the moment. GWS players want to give him the ball at every opportunity, he's exceptional when he goes forward and one of the most evasive players in the midfield.
Surely would have...
CARLTON is the frontrunner to acquire Greater Western Sydney midfielder JoshKelly if he decides to leave the Giants, according to Brisbane champion Jonathan Brown.
Kelly’s stocks have only risen throughout the 2017 season after moving full-time into the midfield, with North Melbourne...
There are rumours going around that North Melbourne have offered 8 million over 9 years.. Personally I don't really like the length of the deal but I guess you would do whatever it takes to get one of the best young Mids in the comp.
What's he worth? I would give up pick 1 for him if I had it
It begins!!
BFNAAK - "Raised a North Melbourne fan as the son of Phil Kelly, who played 61 times for the Kangaroos, Kelly grew up idolising the likes of Wayne Carey early on and then Drew Petrie and Brent Harvey".
Out of contract at the end of next season. And will no doubt have many Victorian clubs interested (including mine).
I could definitely see the Bulldogs offer him a deal with the money we have left in the war chest after missing out on Hurley. And he's also best mates with the Bont. But I could...
Both very good players who come out of the 2013 draft. JoshKelly at #2 and Zach Merrett at #21.
These are their stats for this season. Who do you guys think is the better player now? And also going forward?
Josh's stats are on the left, while Zach's are on the right.
