    2016 Fixture predictions.

    Addy reckons we're playing GWS twice in Rd 2 + 11 - having the return match halfway through the season is a bit early I would've thought. Will probably get Carlton at Simonds next year but Essendon aren't much better.

    Celebrating HBF's 100k post. He is an ornament to big footy. The Casual Chat Thread

    Good luck to any year 12's in Vic sitting their English exam tomorrow. Remember it's hardly the end of the world if you don't get your desired ATAR. Totally flunked English back in the day and still got into the uni course I wanted.

    Unpopular Opinions you have (non-football)

    You obviously have no idea how this works. Non-government aid from charities only makes up a very small proportion of the money that goes to Africa and similar developing regions. Most is multilateral from the UN etc. and bilateral from one government to another. (admittedly the last one often...

    Opinion OFFICIAL: Josh Walker traded for Brisbane's 2016 3rd Rd pick (Jansen = steak knives)

    One thing in Walker's favour at Brisbane will be experience - has had more time in the system than any of Grimley, Freeman, Paine or Schache so it might be that Brisbane look to that and initially make him the no. 1 target up forward. Being in a weaker side gives him more opportunity as he isn't...

    List Mgmt. OFFICIAL: Scott Selwood moves to Geelong as free agent

    Gotta laugh at this when a player of Buddy's calibre was only worth pick 19 in compo and PD 14. What did they expect?

    List Mgmt. OFFICIAL: Dangerfield + Pick 50 for Picks 9, 28 and Dean Gore

    Won't happen like that. Already receiving pick 50 in the Dangerfield deal and will receive others for Jansen, Simpson and possibly Walker depending on his destination, leaving only 3-4 vacancies outside the 1st + 2nd rounders we've traded.

    List Mgmt. OFFICIAL: Dangerfield + Pick 50 for Picks 9, 28 and Dean Gore

    Don't drink and post kiddies. Selwood might not have had his best year but his ceiling is still higher than Dangerfield's.

    Injury Rhys Stanley - news post-foot surgery

    Clark isn't mobile enough compared to Smith/Stanley/Vardy, so it's definitely the better combo. Was decent in the ruck early on for Brisbane but his calf issues have limited his leap too much.

    Heinz or SPC?

    List Mgmt. OFFICIAL: Dangerfield + Pick 50 for Picks 9, 28 and Dean Gore

    Not entirely happy we're throwing in a player, but Adelaide would've pushed very hard for one given picks only have speculative worth and I can understand their position.

    List Mgmt. OFFICIAL: Dangerfield + Pick 50 for Picks 9, 28 and Dean Gore

    Walker has been linked to Carlton, thinking it may be him + next year's 2nd-3rd rounder for Henderson. Don't want the club trading our top pick 2 years in a row.

    List Mgmt. Recycled Players for 2016

    Need younger players filling defensive roles considering the age of Lonergan/Mackie/Enright/Taylor - ideally in the >26 bracket - so Adcock not a great choice. If we were to offer him something I really worry it would compromise the ability of a guy like Bews to crack into + cement his spot.

    The night grand final concept

    Night grand final is a shithouse idea. Factoring in a 7-7.30pm start and 1/2 hr of post-match presentations, the game wouldn't finish until beyond 10pm. Fine if you're 20 and sinking piss in the backyard but not for families with young kids (who I suspect many commenting here don't have). By...

    List Mgmt. Recycled Players for 2016

    Will be very interesting to see what Brisbane are willing to cough up for Jansen - if anything - unless Carlton can get involved somehow with Walker. If not then I think Walker + next year's 3rd rounder for Henderson should get it done, he isn't worth the 1st rounder Tom Petroro is suggesting.

    List Mgmt. Recycled Players for 2016

    We have 7 senior spots to fill at this stage, Dangerfield/Smith/Selwood/Henderson look as though they'll account for 4 of them. Depending on how many picks we use at the draft (probably trade out 9 + 28 for Danger, leaves 5 of which the 2 in Rounds 5-6 probably aren't worth using), I don't think...

    List Mgmt. Recycled Players for 2016

    Karnezis has retired, can't be picked up as a free agent and instead has to nominate for the preseason draft. Seems to me like the decision is definitive given his injury troubles - doubt his heart is still in it. Fitzpatrick may be worth a look - lacks size for a key forward but might insure...

    List Mgmt. OFFICIAL: Dangerfield + Pick 50 for Picks 9, 28 and Dean Gore

    If he wins the Brownlow 2x 1st rounders is a distinct possibility. Crows would be smart to take that considering they're not getting their hands on a Cockatoo/Guthrie/Menzel in addition to our P9 in a trade.

    List Mgmt. OFFICIAL: Dangerfield + Pick 50 for Picks 9, 28 and Dean Gore

    Depends on how much of the cap we're paying. Sydney's squeeze was compounded heavily by the scrapping of the COLA and not so much overpaying Buddy/Tippett - Goodes + Shaw retiring will probably relieve some of the pressure too. Not sure they're the best comparison. I'd trust the club on this as...
