Review Geelong whip Eagles by 93 points to secure Top 4 spot

[Pure_Ownage]

If two of those are future firsts then how would they know where they finish? I don't think a player you want gets traded unless that player wants out anyway. It's an empty demand

You wouldnt and thats why wce will want at least one top 6 pick in the current year 26 so they know what its worth.
That said if we make finals then and add reid you can assume those picks will not be top 10 in 27 and 28 which is why wce wouldnt take them alone.

To answer your other question in that scenario we would have to encourage one of our players with value to go to get the extra currency. If we didnt reids manager would know we cant get it done and would encourage him to pick a vic club that has the picks (as is the managers job).

Gut feel is that he was taken off for precaution. I'll be surprised if Humphries plays again though.

CS said in his presser, Humphris and Stewart will both play. Precautionary

I think we need GWS to lose and Port to lose by around 4+ goals.

19-26ish, yep.

Margin needed differs slightly depending on how high Freo's score is. Realistic scorelines would suggest 19-26. (Geelong's percentage is 112.24%).

I would just work on convincing the player to come and keep the group together. There's no rule that trades have to be fair and even the trade you're proposing without players would be unprecedented

Unfortunately Cam Guthrie has lost two years to precaution so far so it's a fairly serious condition

Cam is a much more serious case let’s be honest

Mitch & Demi married in 2019, five years ago?

Think you missed the joke Kitty, was tongue in cheek referring to the Tim Kelly trade

 

[Grimoz]

Watching the replay, why was Oscar Allen chosen for the coin toss? Zurhrie too?
Both on 100 games

Allen is the Captain of Wet Toast

Holmes, Stengle and Cameron all playing well today will have done their AA chances a world of good. Thoughts on which of them (if any) will make it?

I feel pretty confident Stengle makes the team. Don't think Jez deserves to personally but people seems to be talking him up. IMO he'll just miss out, as Curnow has been way more consistent and will go past him on goals tomorrow. Holmes strikes me as having played the classic "needs to play that way for multiple years before we reward you with selection" year, so I feel like he's lineball and will probably just miss.

Agree with you. Stengle only.

I’m confident that Jezza will finish 2nd in the Coleman race

 

[Larry Donohue]

What a shame we couldn't get into second and put pressure on gws and pa

Bold prediction given that Curnow needs only two to go past Jez and he's kicked multiple goals in 18 of his last 21 games.

Love them (Eddie) or hate them (most of the rest) I'm probably only taking Bucks and Kane Cornes as serious football analysts from that panel

Curnow must be good it he can kick them from up in the stands

 

[Baudolino]

Wait is Curnow not selected? I assumed he was going to get up for this week's game lol

 

[Pure_Ownage]

I would just work on convincing the player to come and keep the group together. There's no rule that trades have to be fair and even the trade you're proposing without players would be unprecedented

Reid is better than 95 % of young players traded which is the reality.

I understand what you are saying but thats what he will cost.

Personally i wouldnt trade for him at the price either id pass.

 

[Hinkley29]

If HR wants to come here and sticks to his guns OOC we will find a way. Would want to make sure Lawson Humphries is well tied down by then, he’s going to be just as special IMO.

Ummm, Lawson is a really good story and will be a very nice player but he is not in the same league as Reid.

 

[Baudolino]

Don't be mean to me, I can't help that I'm a moron.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Nope they need to win to make 8th and get the week off so they can get all their injured players back.

Not sure it really is that bold of a prediction

From the 6 teams playing tomorrow & those lining up, the player closest to the Jezza’s 58 goals is JUH who’s currently on 43 and Sam Darcy is all the way back on 35 - not sure either of them will kick enough goals against GWS to reach 59 goals

As for Curnow - not sure goals kicked in video games count, and players don’t tend to kick too many from the stands. Curnow was withdrawn from the match on Friday morning, and pretty sure there’s still question marks over McGovern’s availability

Stop, stop, I'm already dead.

 

[Hinkley29]

Look if hes ooc in 2026 and he pushes for geel it helps sure.
But if the 3 r1s are 15 15 and 15 that wont get it done.
In that scenario we will be trading a clear b22 player (either to wce or a 3rd club) to get a much higher pick to get it done.

If we are trading future firsts WC will
Have no idea what picks they will be.

They could be 15, 4 & 3 for all they know.
