It's hard to say but I'm in the camp where Bailey could turn out to be exceptional.

He's always had that breakaway burst and the type of ball skills that you're looking for and it's only only now that he's gotten stronger and more mature that we're seeing a better sample of what he's capable of.
 
For the '28 season he can get twice what the bombers are offering from the Devils, why do you think so many top players have signed contracts that take them to around the Devils introduction. They will have salary cap and sign on bonuses up to wazoo. And after 3 premierships he will deserve it ;)
Even if they don't go to the Devils, will be a seller's market for negotiating your new contract
 
I’ve never been in the camp that Swann will look after the Northern clubs.

While here, he was responsible for the Brisbane Lions, and as such, acted in that manner.

Now he’s at the AFL, he’s responsible for the whole game, and what might be “good” for the whole competition may not be “good” for the Northern clubs.

At least he knows the challenges we face, and how important the north is to the future of the game.

If Ah Chee does leave could his role be Kiddy’s way back into the team?
It's not really his position and I definitely want him in his position

I think you have to question AhChee's role even if he stays tbh. We have a number of players who just haven't impacted consistently all year and Cal is one. I'm curious to see what the outcome is with him either way.

Either way I'm not sure Kiddy is the answer either.

I wonder if he got sick of playing selflessly. He’s had a strange year

He’s probably never going to have a patch of games as good as the finals series last year ever again. Just a perfect storm.

Hope he takes Adelaide to the cleaners and gets all the money to set him up for life.
 
Just reported on SEN that Eric Hipwood has a partial tear of his acl :'(

If they opt for the full reco, which I assume they will then I believe we need to bring in another option as well as Allen for next year. Can’t leave us exposed in that area again like this year, especially given Allen’s injury history. And no I’m not proposing Day gets another 12 months.

Could the Draper play Fwd/Ruck? Otherwise very limited options in the market place I’d say

Draper drifts forward? Play both him and either Fort/Oscar?
 
Yeah Draper probably becomes more important too, sorry Tom14 although I thought a ruckman was pretty important anyway given Fort is serviceable at best and Oscar appears cooked.

Not sure on Draper’s ability as a forward though. Seem to recall Bombers fans saying he’s pretty average in that role. Although he wouldn’t have much to live up to in comparison to who we’ve had up there this year.

And Brandon Ryan still gets delisted

If we bring in Allen and Draper I think that’s enough to cover us for next season.

Would still have Allen, Morris and Gallop as key forwards, Draper in the ruck. Would mean both Fort and Smith in the reserves able to come in as fwd/ruck cover. Think we’ll be alright if they decide to shut Hipwood down for most of next season without bringing someone else in
 
If the full reco does happen, I wonder if the noise around Mitch Lewis might pick back up again. Has been injured too, but has talent and might be gettable.

Other than him, can’t think of too many others.
