With the AFL's ""experts"" AA team: Geelong - 5 players - absolutely fair enough Melbourne - 4 players - yes, fair enough as well Sydney - 1 player (on the bench - WTF) Collingwood - 0 players Fremantle - 1 player Brisbane - 1 player Richmond - 2 players Western Bulldogs - 0 players Carlton...

Sweet turn away offers from other clubs and signed an extension. Surely he has been told he is going to get games! Martin is 35 years old, even he has to acknowledge he needs to take a back seat and allow the younger ruckmen to take over. Give Martin one more game so he gets to 200, then let...

I thought Sweet played OK when he got the chance, and was unlucky to be dropped. He is only 23, and needs to take the next step against the 'big boys'. So whether that is improving his tap skills to your fantastic midfield, or mobility around the ground, or becoming an unmovable brute in a pack...

Interested in the progress of Jordon. Named as an emergency this week, is there any chance he will go past Tim and become #1 ruck or will he only ever be the backup ruck.

Thanks

Is there a common belief Harry may become a best 22 player, or still depth?

What's happening with Kade Kolodjashnij. Everything has just gone quiet??? Should be over concussion by now, it has been what - 3 weeks? No mention on injury list, Marcus didn't mention him on this week's update, no mention in NEAFL, no mention as to a possible 'in' for this week. Is there...

Just read AFL.com Match Review Panel summation (mainly about Nat Fyfe), but no mention of Nick Reiwoldt. If you watch the replay of Nick being knocked out (which is available in Doc Larkin's article on injuries from the weekend), it clearly shows Nick instigated contact with Brodie Smith (either...

You will find most Collingwood people loved his endeavour and competitiveness. He started dropping overhead marks after he injured his knuckles (and has had an eye operation to correct a vision problem), but if he starts clunking those marks again then you will have a fantastic player. We knew...

Thanks. So I presume by your reply he played mostly in the ruck instead of a key forward. Maybe that is the way to go with him!

How did he go this weekend? Will he get a re-call or because the seniors won he will spend more time in VFL.

Should the Free Agency be extended to run through the Trade Period as well? There seems to be some free agents who may have some clubs interested, but in the end won't get a deal because those clubs are more interested in other players who they can only get via a trade. Example Tippett - seeing...

Sorry, I'm confused. Didn't every club know of Ball's abilities and reputation. Didn't every club see him play in the final game of the year (2009), albeit for only 46% of game time but his time on the pine was NOT because of injury. Doesn't an experienced player entering the draft nominate his...

Why note open it up to a poll from supporters, and allocate a specific position for players. Then supporters pick: 3 key defenders (highest vote getter CHB, then FB, then BP) 2 running defenders (HBF for both) 1 defender to cover small forward (BP) 1 ruckman 3 key forwards (highest vote getter...

As far as I'm concerned (and most other pie supporters I know) Cloke is GONE. So will he go to Carlton? depends of whether or not you get MM. One the biggest problems a new coach has is teaching the current playing group his gameplan. With Cloke MM would have his key forward already playing...
