I think had some offield issues which led to neither Western club wanting him

 

[JasRulz63]

I can't think of any in the AFL off the top of my head, but Antonio Brown in the NFL had an all time classic. Vontae Davis also retired literally at half time of a game as well.

After a quick Google, apparently Leon Davis fits the bill? AA year at age 30, retired because he wanted to move back to Perth.

Cameron Ling comes to mind. I think he retired at 30yo after their flag.

James Clement is one that retired out of nowhere, but it was to look after his unwell wife.

Choc said tonight he doesn't think the club will bring in a Joe replacement.

There is too much speculation about a Joe replacement. I think what is needed is a role replacement. If the need for any given opposition is a pinch hit ruck/forward, then Day or Fort might be the option. If the team is grooming Henry Smith as a forward, then he gets an opportunity. If Lloyd increases his development, then he gets some match time. If Doedee is fit and firing, then that could release Lester who has forward experience. Or if Linc is fit, then they could play a small forward line in stature, although Linc, Cam and Kai all play taller.

The options are endless, and allow for players to be rested. Personally I think the forward line in 25 will be very changeable.

I like the idea of Day coming in as insurance, and that he may play about a dozen games. Form will obviously determine that. If he can compete, bring the ball to ground for the quicks, and a goal a game, he would be worth it.

With Lane being delisted, I think that indicates Fort will not get much time in the firsts.

Do other sports count? If so you’ve got Alex Carey, Karmichael Hunt and although he came back, Connor McKenna.

 

[Bucking Beads]

realistic how many goals do you expect a Sam Day scores if he doesn't breakdown like the Glass he's made of

I don’t expect him to be in our best 22 unless our other plans with the players we’ve got don’t work. Day is a mature body that can play the role we want. Sure he’s been injured a lot but from all reports he had a good year this year mostly at vfl level.

He’s not first choice. He’s only there for an emergency but who knows there’s enough talent there for him to be better than that.

Carlton should get him in my view. He may look surplus with McKay and Curnow, but he'll be that reliable third banana who'd bob up to kick goals, like when we had Bradshaw in 00s. Carlton don't have one and they looked quite good whenever Jack Martin managed to get on park and play that role for them.

While I'm glad it's done n dusted already - I still don't understand why Richmond went with our pick trade so early. We had to go do multiple trades to get what Richmond had in terms of picks, so more than likely we would've sat around until Richmond had sorted all their trades.

I was nervous about having to compete for points with the likes of Essendon (Kako) and Gold Coast. Glad to get out of the way early so I can watch the chaos unfold with a popcorn.

 

[Clarkythelion]

Bud, I am a huge Morris fan but I am also capable of understanding a 20 year old having to be the #1 key forward in a team vying for a premiership is a ****ing stupid idea.

I give you Jonathon Brown, he made his debut and saw finals action in his first year as a Lion in 2000, Morris with 10kg's on his frame in the off season will be in his second season already with finals experience. I Believe.

Brown had Lynch and Bradshaw with him. I would be saying the exact same thing even if we had a second year Brown instead of Morris. Not ready to be the #1 guy.

Richmond will have an extremely busy end to the trade period with the Rioli, Baker and Bolton trades

Gold Coast already have the points they need for Lombard.

There was talk from Twomey that other clubs were also after our pick 20, and while they didn’t have the picks/points that Richmond did, they could offer us future picks which we could then trade a for more picks in this draft.

 

[Darren Downunder]

You’re meant to add words to your acrostic poem or is it a work in progress

Darragh Joyce played a role in defence when we had no one else.
Even with a broken jaw, he contested and held his own.
Probably deserved a medal ‘cause we may not have won without him
Thanks, Darragh, you’re a bloody legend.
Happy to have men of such caliber as depth in our club.

that makes sense, let me go and update Richmond board then.
It'll be fun to talk to those sane, friendly people.

 

[Surly Boy]

If this goes through as suggested by Twomey, will be interesting to see what we get for Sharp... Dees seem to be trading away most of their 2024 currency.



Edit:

Pick 49 left for Sharp - 287 points

Sharp better learn how to speak Essendon

We must've rated pick 49 above the future third from Melbourne.

 

[MSB ROYS]

I reckon Essendon is preferable to Melbourne, which is saying something.

Pick 49 is pretty reasonable for Sharpy I would think.

Diacos is a seagull not an inside mid.


On iPhone using BigFooty.com mobile app

100% he likes it on the outside without anyone near him.
Why I say the pies would look at Dev.
Mitchell did not play much with injury and so to DeGoey. They had no one who could get in dirty.

 

[Miluxx]

Oh dev anyone but Collingwood pls.

 

[JasRulz63]

Lol at the surprise from Edmund that he could get a game at Collingwood but not Brisbane.

 

[M Malice]
