Apologies for any inconvenience. We will try to find a replacement.
Der Wayne is a commentator nothing more nothing less he has his own opinion which is fine.Dwayne Pipe just said on SEN that St Kilda will win one of the next 5 flags........Hutchy might need to start drug testing his staff.
This. 100 percent. It’s a totally different development department now. Also noting it’s been easier the last few years to actually draft a kid and let them develop in the 2s and not have to rush them straight in because we have senior players nowI’ve been pretty dirty in our performance this year in the seniors BUT I’ve been to a lot of our VFL games as I live very close to IKON.
The new blood are hungry, skillful and fast. This is a different development to cripps, McKay, Charlie, etc from 10 years ago. While the latter are very good for us, there’s a modernity about this new group that could really be something.
With our senior core, you might find that they step up a notch with the energy they bring in. The last month of football was a bit of a sniff of what the youth are bringing.

2 + 1.8 + 0.8 + 0.8 =5.4 NWM, TDK JSOS, Ryan… almost 30% of the cap for 4 players. - A grade, and about 3 B grades on a good day.SoS making moves over on Saints but it'll end in tears with overpayment & salary cap failure on last spots to fill. We just showed him that doesnt work.
Austin playing it safe as houses over here. Drip feeding our players to other clubs bit by bit in a planned mini reset. Good luck timing the reset vs Gold Coasts 3 first rounders every year plus their current talent a mile ahead of us across the park and growing in experience.
List mgmt should have shopped MCgovern and Cripps to WCE. Delisted/trade/paid out Young. sourced Leek Aleer 12 months out. Kept JSoS. He needs to find two speedy kickers and a ruck better than pitto. If he had of managed that, we'd of been in the firing line in top 8 in 2026.
+ Leek Aleer on 800k.2 + 1.8 + 0.8 + 0.8 =5.4 NWM, TDK JSOS, Ryan… almost 30% of the cap for 4 players. - A grade, and about 3 B grades on a good day.
I know its easy to keep forgetting about the King that St Kilda pay over $1 million per season because he rarely plays, but you need to add in his salary also.2 + 1.8 + 0.8 + 0.8 =5.4 NWM, TDK JSOS, Ryan… almost 30% of the cap for 4 players.
A lot of negativity here.
Guys it’s a changing of landscape for the positive.This trade/draft will go down as the time Carlton grew up.
It is looking very grim for actually getting himCody Walker #1![]()
Agreed. It had to happen and it's time.A lot of negativity here.

The club essentially sold us a historically bad period to supposedly get back up the ladder and here we are in ****ing shambles.A lot of negativity here.

Most of those people know very little about football especially about our players and list management because they only go off what the media sayGot to say, I don't mind people being a bit dramatic about losing players. But turning up having barely posted all year to trash the club and then leaving again is pretty dire.
Suffer with us and you can complain, but turning up once a year to complain is BS
That’s not the rumour at all.Why - the rumour was the AFL put a group of F/S proposals to the clubs and they rejected them ?
The AFL would have to sign off on the deal in the first place. If it looks dodgy, they will just bin it.
Only heard the opposite re: B.King and wanting out of GC living and the football club.Yep, aint never gonna happen.
The only one that may be remotely close is if Charlie's still keen on heading a little further north, and we can lure B.King from GCS who's been rumored to POSSIBLY wanting to return to Victoria. Has been linked to the filth previously, but supposedly that was more through the Graham Wright connection.
It's a mighty long bow, but if we secured King as part of a deal for Charlie, I could live with that.
Contracted til 2026, so you’d think so..So does the Gov get a reprieve? Please don’t tell me we will retain Lewis Young
Sound like Essendon supporters 4-5 years ago talking about performances in meaningless dead rubbers when the pressure is offToughen up!
If anything we found a gear at the end of the year… almost as if something dropped and we found clarity in what our game should look like.
Losing TDK and Jack is a blessing in disguise for me…gain a couple of picks and fix our salary cap. Both of which can be used to fill both our glaring weaknesses in speed and disposal.
You watch, we will be fine! Still got stars on every line. Get a few players that apply pressure, speed and clean disposal we’ll make finals.
And Your opinion is?Sound like Essendon supporters 4-5 years ago talking about performances in meaningless dead rubbers when the pressure is off
