Fine, we'll take Lukosius and pick 6 we'll just have to suck it up and take on his contract.

I'd love a Cats/Bowes type of situation. Maybe 3 of them.
He was a fantastic defender a couple of years ago. And it sounds like he's going well at VFL. Why aren't they playing him?
GWS veteran reportedly eyeing switch south: AFL trade news
The 32-year-old has played just seven games this season.www.zerohanger.com
The Dandenong Stingrays junior has been a dominant force at VFL level across seven appearances in the reserves this year, recording 32 or more disposals in five of his last six games - his most recent being a high of 39 touches and 12 marks in defence against Box Hill.
he was a star a few year's back. if we could get a year out of him and Howe (if one misses the other is playing) it would be a good result.

Here’s a little draft tit bit to keep an eye on.
I was talking to one of Sandy Dragons line coaches the other day. He was telling me Collingwood had recently contacted him to enquire about the characters of a number of their high end draft prospects (Luke Trainor, Harry Armstrong who are both talls AND OTHERS)
I joked as to why would they bother asking about early picks when they don’t currently have one. His response was “ I hear they’re talking with the Swans ‘. The Swans currently have #18 ( fluid ) and #19 ( fixed ) and the inference is the Swans may be prepared to trade out one of those picks for something reasonable in return ( likely includes either our future first rounder or a player )
This is not to say Collingwood have locked in a Dragons prospect, it’s more about the possibility of them having an interest in securing a late first round pick. What they would do with it, becomes a whole new conversation.

It's a hacked account but you got your 2 minutes of self righteousness
emphasis on 'a few years back'
i'd personally be trying to bring in someone like Buku Khamis from W.Bulldogs, 190 cms, super athletic, mobile, quick for his size, good skills and way more equipped for the modern game and, more specifically, our playing style.
OOC end-2024. salary cap not an issue so just need to be able to negotiate a win (fair price) at the trade table (which i'm less confident of)
ps: other option (preferred) is not to do the Khamis or Haynes deal and simply handcuff Reef to Nick over the summer, improve his VO2 max and have Leppa school him as a defender ..invest in the youth we have on the list, at least those showing some capacity to play senior footy

good, im sure the Crows will come sniffing if we dont lock him away soon
Sorry. We are not in a position to quibble over key defenders. Beggars as they say, can't be choosers.
If AJ was way better than Keane he'd be playing in the seniors every week and not passing time in the VFL.
Wow. Do you actually watch the footy? Early in the year he was playing high quality footy for the Crows. To suggest he is at the level he was when he left us is ridiculous.
Give the club which just won a flag a little credit and benefit of the doubt

Early in the year. We're now at round 22 and he's been all at sea since about round 6. He's been exposed by every mediocre forward across the board.
In answer to your first question, no, I don't watch much footy, it's too hard to watch with the shit umpiring and inconsistent application and interpretation of the rules.
That marks Begg's papers then.

I hope not. I think Begg is a keeper

I don't see a position for Begg. Can't see him ever being an AFL ruckman & he doesn't fill any other role.
If Reef could play half back that'd be great but it's a guess. I wonder what Buku will get paid? Probably overs.
Given our lack of picks we need to get creative and look for impact and value.

Wing or inside mid. I reckon he could play both roles better than ruck. His follow up ruck work is right up there with the mobile follow up ruckman of today's game. He doesn't even have to win the majority of tap outs to be effective. We need a tall, down the line player on the wings

Surely we are going to resign Hoskin Elliott
