The two elephants in the room here are: 1. Cripps may well know his body wont make it to 30. 2. His home life / LT girlfriend looks like complicating the situation Feel that if both those issues were non issues Cripps would likely stay a one club player.

And they certainly don't need to trade in a mid aged "once was a gun" who is always injured such as Daniher. But they need tall's back and forward. Actually don't understand TBH, when drafted aren't most players "could be anything" players. Swans will not want a slow rebuild, their fan base...

So you know a lot about Brander and how tall's develop? GWS had him training as an academy kid before rules changed. Apparently they have been keeping tabs on him. He was touted as a top 5 pick before going at 13. Now he is stuck behind Kennedy, Darling, McGovern, Barrass and Allen with...

Well there is a few Eagles fans not laughing at the thought of losing Brander and Petch for Fisher and a 2nd in a heavily compromised draft. That 2nd pick will slide into the 30's so it's no pick 20. If needed a 3rd could be added by the Eagles to balance things up. The reason Fisher was...

How the Blue's land Papely with the Eagles involved!! At the Eagles the most likely players to look for a trade are Brander and Petrucelle. A player like Fisher would interest the Eagles. Blue's give up Zac Fisher plus their 1st pick 9/10. Get Papely. Swans lose Papely gain pick 9/10 and...

Does anyone think that these other guys training and desperate to get on an AFL list showed more than Bugg and both parties decided to part ways? Bugg very well may have lost the passion and thought with the new rules it would be better to let a youn guy get his chance rather than wating a year.

Been a whisper that the AFL are keen for the Blues to trade the mid first round priority pick they will be given to get Gaff. AFL keen for Blues to improve quickly and also means one less compo pick to dish out being a somewhat embarrassing pick 20 odd for one of the comps best mids. Anyone...

Well after reading Mitchell was returning to Melbourne I instantly thought of Carlton. Ive posted before I think Sam Mitchell would be a front runnier for the next Carlton coach. And thought it could even be next season until reading anout the Bolton extension.

Howdy Blues. Before the Eagles showed up I was a Blues supporter. The comp needs the Blues to get better and get back into finals. It needs big block buster games between traditional VFL rivals to spice things up. So saying this is 2018 the year to seriously consider trading pick 1 for...

Why wouldn't the Blues take the best FP forward with pick 1 instead of the best KP back? They can still land a quality KP back (Collins) with a later pick. Big forward win games and are hard to find. I saw the votes on here were weighted big time towards Weitering.

Just looked and Carlton has a bye this week, plays Port at the MCG in two weeks. I fly down for a footy weekend once every year and I'll be in Melbourne watching this game. By then I can see the decision to retire may have been made and he'll get a standing ovation at a packed MCG. Can also...

Felt crook when I saw the picture on the AFL site. Sure Eagles fans were unhappy when he left but we still love the guy and no one would want his career to end this way. All the best to you and your family in your recovery and for the future.:thumbsu:

Shame (for you) his best footy was behind him.;);););)

What is it with Caaaaarlton liking WA players?

Yep. Would you guys whip him into shape before he heads back West to the Eagles in a year or two.;):D His endurance is what made him slip so far. Have a look at what the Eagles drafted with pick 66. A serious running / tackling machine. They did like the look of Clem though after training...

Would love Essendon and Carlton to end up in court over this arguing about the definition of cheating:thumbsu: cheating present participle of cheat (Verb) Verb Act dishonestly or unfairly in order to gain an advantage, esp. in a game or examination: "she cheats at cards". Deceive or trick...

Once in a generation? Like say: Le Cras Milne Ballantyne Farmer Rioli Matera Didak Stokes McGlynn Gianseracusa Sorry but describing Garlett as a once in a generation small forward is stretching things more than just a bit. Garlett is quality I will agree but a quality mid will always be...

Someone on another thread mentioned Garlett's father was saying he is home sick. Could be BS or just his dad wishing his son was back in WA. Getting married in Broome so I presume he or his bride to be or both are from northern WA. As for Gaff being just a 'foot...

Two rumours going around is that Garlett is getting married in Broome this off season and his father has been saying he is pretty home sick. The other rumour is Gaff at the Eagles is also home sick and it is known that his mother has come over to spend time with him ATM. Of course both...

From how I read it he was offered 3 weeks for one offence downgraded to 1 + carry over points due to a good record and an early plea, this got him a 50% reduction. He copped 45 points from the other incident. I think the hip on head was more dangerous and got the 3 weeks, the sheppard that...

You are right on the money here:thumbsu: In the end 6 changes is a lot and it does upset your team balance and team coheision. Losing Jamison in this game on top of those changes already cumulated in your side being too short and also having too many different faces playing along side...

If he got a week + carry over points I wouldn't complain or feel hard done by. But he's not a sniper.

The level of contact won't rate a mention as it can't really be measured. No real impact so no case to answer. Just unsocialble football.;)

[/B] The loss has clouded your judgement mate. Lynch a sniper.:eek: Far from it. What I have noticed about Lynch recently is he has stopped pulling out of contests / bumps or sheppards, in previous years he looked like he didn't want to hurt someone body on body as he's such a big...

Re: R14 Carlton v West Coast, Sunday June 26 @ Etihad - Squad Post #491 Yep, you guys lost the game about this point.:rolleyes:

Re: R14 Carlton v West Coast, Sunday June 26 @ Etihad - Squad Post #491 You correctly deleted it because I didn't post a link and had too much of the article in the post, which is fair enough, lesson learned by me.:) I posted it again because other posters thought I was 'confused'...
