It feels like the never ending story, we will lose Fyfe, Walters and Aish from the squad next year and will role out with the least experienced team again next year.
It won't make a difference to our age because none of them played this year anyway. (Squad will be younger but game day team age won't change)
 
Going to be painful listening to what the Pies supporters think he is worth in a trade. Quick glance at their board ... "use Hill to get pick 2 from WC and then get Butters" ... "Hill + F1 + 2nd for Harley Reid" ... "Same as Bolton deal" ... "pick 13 + 19 from WC". Good grief.

Gameday should age a bit, especially when we get the Bont (I'm dreaming).

WC traded pick 3 for Owies + change so you can't blame them for trying.
 
This guy loves racking them and has family issues. You can carry that type of player at Collingwood but not at Freo. Unless we get him cheap that is a powder keg ready to explode.

It would be very AFL for the AFL to suddenly care about things when it impacts Fremantle and not Collingwood. West Coast is big enough to keep things quiet.

Baker was involved in that trade and was the main piece.

What's kind of bizarre is that Owies was about to be delisted or re-sign for peanuts (probably ending in a delisting). Not really sure how to look at the trade to work out how much of pick 3 Owies was but it'd be **** all compared to Baker.

Im liking the look of Judd McVee as a solid recruit with high upside. He is class with ball in hand and has pace which are attributes we need more of. His 2025 form has been badly effected by a hamstring injury but coming into the year I would have expected a jump in his production. In 2023 he played a series of games mostly off the wing and looked super promising in that role. He spent his junior career playing as a midfielder so I think that we would look at him as a wing prospect who can also play back. He can also play as a lock down defender as he has in recent times and we need depth there Id trade our second rounder outright or Erasmus and our second rounder for McVee and the Brisbane 3rd rounder Melbourne hold for him. I dont think Whan will require a top 20 bid so I think we would be able to bid match any bid with our two third rounders (who will move up the draft due to live bidding)

I think he has similarities with Jordan Clark's years at Geelong in terms of he has shown immense promise but hasnt put everything together yet and I think he'd have massive upside with his best position as a defensive wingmen.

For what its worth we've been linked to Acres returning to us us in recent times. I wouldnt be totally against a cheap trade of a 4th rounder. His best footy is very good in my opinion and if Carlton are going into rebuild mode they'd want his salary off the books.
 
Weird idea cos he won't leave Victoria, but what about Petracca?
We have money in the bank...
Will absolutely try to leave the Dees again, is a good at Football, the type of high impact midfielder we're lacking, likely we could get the Dees to pay some of his wages.

Has Acres changed his manager?
 

I wonder if we'd go for him? Always played well in finals and Treacy's hands are so good he could probably handle it coming in with snow on it.

Recon WC might have a dip. They have no one to pay so could offer him good money and are desperate for more experience.
 
Who gets rested from the reserves team?

He must be injured surely? Even Acres isn't so bad as to be dropped from VFL level.

Fully agree. Really rate him and I reckon part of his 2025 form slump might be due to his role (lots of lockdown) and he might have checked out. He doesn't want to be pigeonholed as a lock down defender, but it seems Melbourne continue to play him in this role. He wants to be released and we can offer that. I'm sure he wouldn't mind the odd defensive role.

1st on Hill (not if he is on drugs or something like that) or one of the medium wing/forward kids (Le Ray, Barker, Hibbins-Hargreaves).
2nd on McVee
Match Whan

its a no from me dawg GIF
 
Carlton are probably paying him 500-600K a season now anyway. Signed an extension in June last year when he was flying after the finals series. Cha Ching.
He can suffer in his gold plated jocks.
 
Wonder if we are looking at Bayley Fritsch if Ah Chee isn't available?
