Hopefully we will be winning the McClelland trophy within the next couple of seasons!

Haha yeah. I saw you the next day as well? But was too hungover to realise it was you till you’d walked away. What a weekend 👍

I had one of my better wins as well making a great night even greater…backed Alice and Vicki to score 2+ goals at 55/1 … if you saw someone jumping around like a fool after Vicki scored her second that would have been me 😂🤣

I went and had a watch yesterday on my last day in Melb. Never seen them train before so not really in a position to say if it was a great session or not, but they were fairly loud and seemed to be working hard on a forward press. Three teams rotating and you seemed to get points for stopping...

Yeah blind Freddy can tell Jy and Luke have struggled to lead the side the past couple of years, but damn the constant sniping of them is becoming a bit much. Let's hope that they both show improvement as the team inevitably improves as the young kids become men. Luke showed he was a solid...

Got tickets for my daughter and I...heading down from the Sunny Coast...hopefully a reverse of last years result.

I'm coming down with my daughter from the Sunny Coast. Does anyone know if the early ticket release is for AFLW members only or all North members?

FOS Sheezel McKercher Xerri LDU Wardlaw What's there to be upset about? :)

It’s been pelting down all week in Brisbane and is expected to for the rest of the week I think so might be a bit of a slog in the other prelim.

Absolutely it is a terrible deal for us. And yet the tigers wouldn’t do it if offered, so I agree with the original post…the tigers could be looking back on this draft as a big wasted opportunity. They should have jumped at the chance of getting the 1 and 2.

I see we are back to giving up our F1 for not much again…and we’ve even started adding f2’s or 3’s…hurry up Wednesday! 😂

Any idea of dates North are coming up to Qld for pre season? And are they in Noosa?

Yeah sucks for us Qld supporters. I think we’ve had one game up here in 3 years? And that was getting belted in Goldy’s 300th.

Crows would think/hope they are a finals side so they won’t likely be in the Sharp range. It may also make them think a move from their f1 to our f2 wouldn’t be too big a slide. If they want the pick 2 desperately enough it seems the most likely team we work with. Otherwise we just keep 2 which...

Is 2 and a f2 for 4 and a f1 the favourite at this stage on draft night? That allows us to use a f1 (or f2) later and keep our draft hand for 2026.

Then trade 4 for Saints F1 and 7 or 8 and we're away :)

So use a F2 or 3 … don’t be giving up a F1 for some pick in the teens 🤷🏻‍♂️

No opinion is wrong at this stage. I think that there is a top 5 (maybe 6) that have risen above the rest this year. Maybe you are correct and every club has different ideas, but FOS Draper Smith Ashcroft and Lalor as a five look a bit better bets than the rest to my eye and if a club wants one...

Have a look at past drafts and see if North would win the deal hands down. You’ll be surprised. You don’t give up pick 2 in a draft unless the offer is too good to refuse. 6 and 11 we might do because of our circumstance this year but odds are we’d lose on the trade.

I’m not sure where I said we should ignore KPF talent? All I said was that the narrative we have ignored talls is a year out of date. We grabbed three. We will probably grab a couple this year if a fair trade is organised. If clubs try and take us for fools we still will grab 1 using a F1 or F2...

We drafted three? Key position players last year in Dawson, Goad and Maley. They take time and we shall see if they are good in a few years. I do agree if we take a midfielder with 2 then we should try use the F2 in the late 20’s or 30’s to grab one of the many talls, but the narrative that we...

Have a look at every draft for the past twenty years and see how often 2 is a better selection than 6 and 11 combined. If you want a midfielder you would be silly not to do everything possible to get the 2. If you have the Tigers draft hand it’s beyond silly. They might get the deal they want by...

I just hope we are patient. Tigers won’t want give up much until the Saints or Dees or whoever have a deal in place for 2…then they might realise they have to give up something that is a win win, rather than an absolute pilfering

I know 5 straight rubbish years have obviously taken their toll on some of us and we instantly take the negative point of view, but burned assistance package? That would be us using 5 first round picks? Let's wait and see if that pays off? Burned 2024 picks? pick 24 (likely to be 28ish?) and 40...

You would have to guess that a trade might have been organised for this move to happen?

One LDU will sign and two that’s not how it works. We’d get a pick after our first rounder even if it’s been traded.

I've already said I want to keep pick 2..my preference is pick the gun mid at 2 and trade back in with a F2 to get the tall forward or defender prospect, but I thought I'd give this trading malarky a go as it seems easy :) North give 2 and F1: Receive 7,10 and Saints F1 Tigers give 10: Receive...

Stuck with two. How terrible.

I don’t know. I’m thinking of locking myself away for a few weeks so I don’t have to think about it. I wouldn’t even do 2 for 6 and 10 and I know I’m in the minority there, so I’ll be disappointed with most outcomes if we trade by the looks. Brady hasn’t made too many glaring mistakes on draft...

With the articles slowly getting worse, I’m realising this is going to be a helluva hard three weeks to get through 😂 6 and 11 for 2 and a F1 from a team that has finished bottom 2 for five years running is some sort of stupid.
