I think the movements of Mitchell, Adams, show that top clubs rate good ball winners still.

Wait, do you mean Tom Mitchell?

In principle I can see where you’re coming from but Bulldogs were kissed on the arse by the AFL when they were able to draft him as an NGA. They gave him a big contract (i cannot believe he was squeaky clean when they handed him his last contract) so my inclination is to let them reap what they have sown!

I think that would be paying more for McKay than necessary

Yes.

McKay brothers get out of the Vic footy fish bowl… Into the WA footy deep fryer?

Like with anything. Do not over pay just because others say. Pay what you think something is worth. If others think something is worth more, best of luck to them.

Draper wants to stay.

anyone heard anything on Bryan contract talks?

If we get Reid all of Tsatas, Hobbs and Perkins become surplus imo.

Perkins would effectively lose his position in the short term as a somewhat unaccountable forward who gets midfield minutes and the midfield future of the other two is outshined by Harleys so they will be one more down the depth chart.

It would be one hell of a statement to trade out all 3 but it would give us some more picks to play around with to go with the guys we will be getting.

Sure Harry is on a big contract but I think he’s still a very good player, he’s the best CHF at marking between the arcs, he’s almost underrated when you consider how much flak he’s been getting recently.

It’s interesting with all of that ruck discussion that there is nothing on Bryan. Maybe he’s waiting to see which way Draper jumps.

I just wish they would stop giggling like 15 year old schoolgirls. Very hard to watch.

It’s that clown next to Twomey.

He’s a bum.

Cal would be wise to find a better co host. And they both could do with wardrobe.

Interest in Connor Budarick is interesting. He’s Queensland born and bred. No idea if he can play. But a lock down small we already have in McGrath.

Cal’s seemed to go down in quality and looks to be way more clickbaity and mainstream now than he used to be, could depend on him for quality takes and info in the past

edit: but he’s still pretty top tier in AFL media which isn’t super hard lol

He needs to get back to basics. Avoid the cringe gimmicks and trade clickbait and just report what he knows to be fact. And keep us up to date on the youngsters. He’s the best draft expert in the media, that’s what he needs to prioritise. Although I don’t mind him sharing the odd inside Essendon info that comes his way.

Let’s convince Sydney they really want Parish, and take Sheldrick off their hands

Sheldrick is younger and a legit jet.
