Mega Thread Non-Freo AFL Discussion 2023

Jackson is going to provide more than any "potential" draft pick will.

 

[Taylor]

The commentators who would have been lining up to put the boot in have been publicly admitting Jackson has proven his worth for us this season. I am not worried about that.

Who was picked with the future first in the trade for Treloar? For Shiel?

Can you remember the name of the player taken with the first round pick we traded last year?

That's the last little part of the contract on sticking in the boot. I think there is a bigger risk at the moment for WC getting asked the question whether Ginbey and Hewitt are worth missing out on Jackson, but that question should also be put to bed with the acquisition of a ruck for them this off season.

Daicos with a tibial plateau fracture.

That could cause issues down the line for him.

 

[FUS_RO_DAH]

Never change, Kayo.

 

[Taylor]

Daicos with a tibial plateau fracture.

That could cause issues down the line for him.

They'll want to make sure that heals fully or he will become one of those players who "gets their knee drained" on the regular and plays with both swelling and pain forever.

And he is a runner... that's a horrible outcome for him, his family, the club and the league.

This confused me too.

This confused me too.

Thrilled that I'm spending checks notes THIRTY DOLLARS A MONTH for this premier service

 

[Kram]

Carn da Roos lock the Eagles' spoon in today.

 

[s_wd6]

Can't stand the Clarkson wankfest that would come from this game if they get up. Need Melbourne to fix their shit.

 

[Kram]

Actually just noticed that creep up in the box, cmon Dees fight back!

Is that the injury that JOM suffered early in his career?

..might not be long before he is in the Norths ressies.

Poor old Darcy Tucker..might not be long before he is in the Norths ressies.

He has spent a fair time there already!

 

[Taylor]

Is that the injury that JOM suffered early in his career?

O'Meara dislocated his knee cap, ruptured patella tendon.

Walker/Henry sort of injury.

 

[wakojako]

Petracca is something else.

 

[mattis117]

Is that the injury that JOM suffered early in his career?

Bit more info, it was the tendon below the knee cap, complete tear. To repair it, they drill holes through the knee cap and thread sutures through it to privies the tension needed to reconnect the torn tendon while it heals. Not a pretty injury, but not as bad as an ACL.

Thankfully, Walker, I've been told, has a less severe injury than Jaeger had.

 

[FreoRicci]

Acres with 27 disposals and 2 goals. Definitely worth a third rounder

Acres with 27 disposals and 2 goals. Definitely worth a third rounder

Downhill skier.

There is no one question we have missed his input this year. Particularly the first 7 games and Aish could have been played elsewhere.

The problem is we were never getting a second round pick for an out of contract player we lowballed.

The only consolation is that pick 48-50 will end up being around 43-45 but the time the pick is used.

 

[Boppo]

Walters another poor game.

Jackson was never going to West Coast. Never ever.

This doesn't matter. It's all on what ifs.

 

[FreoRicci]

Carlton surging. If port keep losing, Carlton get top 4, Mckay is back.
All the while Collingwood could be in trouble. Can’t play without Daicos or Murphy

 

[Docker82]

Walters another poor game.

He was hardly poor today imo.

Didn’t hit to scoreboard but 12 disposals and 4 score involvements. Perhaps a little down on his best but made a contribution.
