I’m not sure if this is one of you maniacs, but this person seems to have excellent intel over a period of time.

 

[Tommy Wigs]

People just need to learn to understand the system.

Ben McKay earns pick 3 and Buddy earns pick 19.

Wah wah wah Buddy is so much better how can this be.

Well pick 3 and pick 19 was the exact same compensation, round 1 compensation.

1 team just happened to be better than the other.

I think most will understand or at least wilfully ignore it. The argument will be that the system is broken. People expect reasonable compensation. For some reason they are completely fine with a rival getting a good player for free. So much so that they’re now second flag faves for 2025.

It’s been mentioned before if I recall correctly.

Mason Wood better be signed on as a development guy if he wants. He is so crucial to us off the field

Put the kybosh on Thomas as well. And was listened to.
Has been such an acquisition. Always liked him at North but was always injured.
At the Saints he has had some injuries however since 2022 has played 19, 24 and 18 games, the most in his career ina three year block.
Best clubman twice in three years. As a DFA can't think of a better success, maybe Membrey or Roberton.

Do we have somebody else’s F1 or are you talking our own?

Just ours at the moment.

 

[Armoooo]

For anybody who thinks we got overs, they need to look at the history of pick 10 (which is what 8 will probably be pushed back to).

By my count there's 3 guns (McKay, Green, Blakey), 2 that are too soon to tell (Phillipou, Caddy) and 5 busts.

Honestly just as likely that whoever we take with the pick will be delisted in 4 years as they will become a better player than Battle.

 

[gringo2011]

I can see his point. He has moments that look incredible its just consistency/injuries.

Not sure if hell ever get to star status but i can see why people see it

I guess Sincs proved plenty wrong so perhaps there is still hope there. A good injury run can only help.

 

[gringo2011]

Were you born with hate syndrome?

You campaigners have to overachieve because you have the worst kit in world footy and Yankee Doodle as a song. We are shit but we look so ****ing cool doing it we don't give any ****s.


....and you come to hostile territory to troll but whatever the deficiency that your tiny gene pool dumped on you has seemingly made you a dullard.

 

[akaifu]

Pick 3 confirmed to be available for pick swaps. I'm targeting that over pick 2 because we're basically getting the same player either way

I wonder if there's a way we can convert pick 7,8,F1 into pick 3, top 12, later teens, Macrae/Soldo

Lets us get something like; Draper/Jagga/FOS, Lindsay/Travaglia/Hotton, Hotton/Hynes/Hannaford, Sims/Faull/Gerreyn (P27), Cole, Hofmann, Peckett, Macrae, Soldo

So many ways to play our hand

You can’t train what they both have, Clark just needs a good offseason and some luck.

Christ wtf is with the lions supporters on the main board.

If they keep this up they'll outdo the Injectors last off season!

 

[gringo2011]

what if we already have one?

what if Ari will be better?

On SM-A156E using BigFooty.com mobile app

He might but we need one next year. He's going to have to step up quickly. I actually think Sharman is the most like for like. Prefer him forward though.

 

[gringo2011]

****, I hope you don't keep any rope at your joint..........

I'm not unhappy until I read your posts.

 

[StCicatriz]

They're legit on ducking crack

One has argued st kilda have an unfair home ground advantage because the grand final is at the MCG

The other can't work out how salary cap concessions granted to the lions may have had something to do with player retention that can flow through to father son selections made today.

They can't see they've been gifted a raft of on field concessions by the AFL.

 

[Mat Mann]

Christ wtf is with the lions supporters on the main board.

cmon it's funny

 

[gringo2011]

Surely you jest?

It makes a hole. I reckon we are ready to play finals. That hole needs to be filled or we lose ground. It might makes us better in 4 years time but unlikely the player we get makes up for the loss of a key piece of our best line.

I’d be doing that. Swap pick 8 & future first for pick 2.

Next year it’s pretty well known that we’re targeting free agency anyway.

Thoughts?

 

[heynow85]

The Roos have been open to splitting the pick for another top-10 selection and a future first-round choice, while the Eagles have dangled their top choice in a mix of trade possibilities as they look to boost their draft hand whilst also securing trade target Liam Baker.

Would we swap 7&8 for Eagles pick?

Because they have to travel from Brisbane apparently. Don't hear the Eagles or Swans complaining.

Whereas the Saints only have to drive into the city.

I mean how bad are their logistics team if this is still a disadvantage for a professional afl team in 2024?

The MCG is not our home ground but apparently that's irrelevant.

Lol

Honestly I'd trade the what is 4 extra games travel for:

• better stadium deal
• legit proper home game advantage
• split sponsorship and gate in the state between two clubs
• 50% split of talent in the state. Big factor in talent returning home.

 

[Leap of Faith]

Christ wtf is with the lions supporters on the main board.

If they haven’t grown up with or had much exposure to footy in Melbourne the one eyed parochialism goes into overdrive. When I lived in Perth I had multiple WCE fans tell me with a straight face that the Eagles should have 16 home games a year because that’s what the ‘over east’ clubs get. Haven’t lived in Brissy so don’t really know about their mob, but the Eagles fans are just appalling.
