AFLW 2024 - Round 6 - Chat, game threads, injury lists, team lineups and more.
Ironically I was a fan of DGB - disappointing but thats how it goes sometimesHawthorn look like they got burnt with Denver Granger-Barrass the following draft at pick 6 as well.
Listening to Twomey it sounds like he'll be moved on in some way, shape or form at the end of this season
Yes slightly later as you probably know - Davis (10), Talia (13) and Lever (14, likely top 5 before ACL)Weren’t they more mid/latish first rounders?
Or we should get better recruitersThe thing is we debate the same old shit over and over on this site. Anything I am saying here has been said a FEW (estimated perhaps 10) times before (by me certainly and others) and the opposing sides is bordering on an unhealthy fixation with the subject by repeating the same points not dozens of times but HUNDREDS of times by individual posters. By George, they should know who they are.
Perhaps we all need to get a life.
Geelong is exploring ways to jump into the top 10 at next week’s national draft.End of the day it's hard to believe that McAsey was legitimately pick 6 on the talent order. They reached and picked for need and got burnt
It matters because we traded back to pick 6, so we used a very high draft pick.Yes slightly later as you probably know - Davis (10), Talia (13) and Lever (14, likely top 5 before ACL)
Not sure there is massive historical difference between success of pick 6 and 10 and honestly don’t really care. The substance of what I am saying has been said and I wont repeat again after this post - KPD are valuable, we had nailed every first round KPD pick historically, Mc Asey was the standout tall at this pick and was VIC Metro MVP and many of the most successful clubs in the last decade - inc cats and tigers - were widely rumoured to be looking at trading up to get him.
That said, the pick ###### up, made worse by many other good players drafted after him. Nobody can reasonably argue against this and as Kristof said it hurts as is Hamishs biggest blemish. We all know having Day or Pickett now would be amazing. Didn’t happen, time to move on.

OK Mr PedanticIt matters because we traded back to pick 6, so we used a very high draft pick.
As for once again posting like a condescending moral crusader. It’s not up to you what, how and when we and I post. It’s not you to judge whether it’s healthy or the quality of my life.
So stop being a ********, if you don’t like it there’s the ignore function.
You were being pedantic and now you’re being a dickOK Mr Pedantic
All good man, off for a kayak and then boozy late lunch so won’t waste any more of your time today and apologiesYou were being pedantic and now you’re being a dick

This is weird - ‘midget’ got through but ‘midget$’ was changed to ‘short people’.A replacement midget, not an extra one. But more seriously this always a knock on him prior to drafting yet he has forged a v good career despite it.
The main consideration is whether he’s still got it or not. Our 2 short people never had it in the first place.
Interesting .. either Hayden Young or Lachie Ash would've been winsGeelong is exploring ways to jump into the top 10 at next week’s national draft.
The Cats, who have picks 14, 17, 24 and 36, have held preliminary talks with several clubs about bundling up multiple picks in exchange for a single-figure selection.
Clubs can continue to trade draft picks until the November 27-28 event and can cut deals on the night.
Moving into the top 10 would put Geelong in the frame to secure one of the two most highly rated talls in Luke Jackson and Fischer McAsey.
And Twomeys Phantom. Funny thing not many mention is Stephens would have likely been taken if not Mc Asey, inc if we stayed at 4.

DRAFT PROFILE Bio, stats, highlights and more
Adelaide has put plenty of time into McAsey across the season, and could land him with its first pick. The Crows moved back from pick No.4 to No.6 in a deal with the Giants confident a player they liked would be available, and McAsey was never going to be off the board by No.6, despite some interest from the Swans. The Crows don't have much youth in their key-position ranks so McAsey shapes as a long-term player if they swoop. The strong-marking key back has also been used in attack at times, with his versatility and game sense a strength.
If not him? Local option Dylan Stephens is right in the Crows' mix and would also bring something new to their midfield unit. Half-backs Hayden Young and Lachie Ash have also been linked to the club, while Sam Flanders will be considered if on the board.
The classic way to do a rebuild is get the key talls first as they take longest. We started with Thilthorpe and McAsey to have a KPP at each end.
The classic way to do a rebuild is to get your early draft picks right. Swapping talent for need doesn't help achieve that.
Yes slightly later as you probably know - Davis (10), Talia (13) and Lever (14, likely top 5 before ACL)

Ned Moyle was a miss unfortunately but I don’t want another 5 or 6 years with a butt average ruckman.Whilst I'm not pushing for Draper, certainly adds a lot more around the field vs what ROB does.
Doesn’t play with DeKoning’s gruntNed Moyle was a miss unfortunately but I don’t want another 5 or 6 years with a butt average ruckman.
Tom DeKonings last two games rounds 13 and 15 as a solo young ruck/mid hybrid won the games for Carlton and coaches votes , with Pittonet out look forward to seeing him again tonight. I know this board doesn’t want to use Thilthorpe in that way but he can be that type with his skill set if the club has the kahuna’s to try imo.
Agreed, but is it there ?Doesn’t play with DeKoning’s grunt
lol won’t happen
Neither did de Koning til recently. He's three years older than TT.Doesn’t play with DeKoning’s grunt
