[The Nostradamus]

Beveridge thinks dogs are coming hard for Butts (pun intended).

Twomey thinks we are still in it with Windhager and should hear within a week or so.

Up that offer for windy one more time and let’s get that done

Also apparently Steven May is gettable

Apparently Steven May is shit.

 

[Ura]

Around that 8-18 mark. probably would have been higher, but did he ACL 3-4 months ago.

Powerful, tall outside runner who is a big meters gained player. Strong overhead, fantastic ground level player and is a fantastic athlete.

There is a lot to like about him. Plays both sides of the body, Looks a decent size and accurate disposal..

Lol tell me you don’t watch footy without telling me

Weird. Why didn’t they just name it for what it is? ‘The North Bonus’

 

[BlueandWhiteinmyBlood]

Sometimes I think you are like a paid actor/agitator sent into a peaceful protest so the media can report on bad behavior.

 

[Snowy off the Tram]

To be fair, your call on May was ridiculous. IMHO. Ordinary bloke maybe but he can football … and would be so much more dependable than any of our current crop of KPDs will ever be.

 

[nelroo]

Haha just what we would want, more flogs who are here for the money

Oh wait , didn’t read the whole article lol

Is the sign on bonus for the signed free agent or goes to the club ?

 

[krakouers]

Have heard of Dovaston, what's Harley Barker's position and expected draft range?

He's no Herman Pernorkel thats for sure....

 

[BlueandWhiteinmyBlood]

He could football, but not any more, he is cooked.

lol that has north written all over it

recent acl where do i sign

 

[giantroo]

No ifs and butts​

North Melbourne are continuing to monitor contracted Crows defender Jordon Butts as a potential acquisition during the upcoming trade period, however Adelaide are more likely to retain the 25-year-old, who is signed until the end of 2026.

Butts was in good form before he suffered a punctured lung in a tough win against the Western Bulldogs in round 18 and did not return for the finals. He played 10 games in 2025 as a lockdown defender and got under the skin of Richmond’s Tom Lynch, who was suspended for five matches for striking him in round 16.

However, the Crows’ straight-sets exit and the need for competition in key positions has made it more likely that Butts, who will be a free agent next season, remains at the club.

’s future remains uncertain, while the Crows have extended defender Hugh Bond.

Key defenders such as Butts are in short supply, with former Blue Jack Silvagni

Why Steven King’s first move at Melbourne could be landing Max Gawn’s replacement

The former Geelong skipper and premiership player has hit the ground running at his new club, with the Demons facing a busy trade period under the new coach.

In fairness I reckon all 3 would be happy to feather their superannuation nests at Arden Street for a few years.

 

[shinboner magic]

Problem is AFLPA will never agree to it. Dangerfield said not a chance last night. The tail is wagging the dog and the game is falling apart.

They can down tools if they like but enough is enough.
Allow this to continue and it’ll be like soccer where only the same few teams win the flag.

It already is, look at the last 20 years..

six diff teams have won the EPL in last 20 yrs bit more than a few...

 

[Cyber_punk]

It's not 2004 anymore where everyone thinks they are a chance at the flag. With coaches more or less openly saying their clubs are in rebuilds, the AFL knows a lot of fans might see no point in staying engaged with the game and might drop off. It can take almost 10 years sometimes. Not like most other sports. That is agonizingly long due to the sheer number of players required to field a team that is competitive.

I have said, by and large, we have seen the same 4 clubs making it to the pointy end of the season for a couple of decades now, with this season no different, Hird and Eddie pointed it out last night. The AFL would know it too.

 

[DrZaius]

You're not honestly trying to argue that the EPL is an equitable competition are you?!

 

[ohmygewd]

Outside the Big 5, only Blackburn and Leicester have won the EPL when it became the Premier League in 1992
Man U (13)
Man City (8)
Chelsea (5)
Liverpool (2)
Arsenal (5).

Only Aston Villa (1), Tottenham(1), Newcastle (2), Blackburn (1) have broken the big 5's stranglehold in terms of runner ups as well!!

This is what a no salary cap but a transfer window league looks like

If you compare roughly the same time period with the list of GF appearances per team, since 1987:
Geel- 10
Haw- 9
Coll- 7
WCE- 7
Bris- 6
Ess- 4
Carl- 4
NM- 3 -shoulda made more GF's in this era
Rich- 3
StK- 3
Melb- 3
Adel- 3
Foots- 2
Port- 2
Freo- 1
GWS- 1
GC-0
