Hawthorn wanted Mitchell [tom, son of barry] desperately and he was not so much a dollar problem as picks. JOM, was both a problem for both picks and really dollars, high 700s for five years. Hawthorn were dealing with 2017/8 problems early in a list management stratagem that gave them players and cap. 

 

I do subscribe to the Sam Mitchell hyperbole and the spin they put on it. S mitchell is a very shrewd person if transiting to coaching was his best move then this is it at WC. And a massive upside for the eagles. No brainer. 

 

Stranger was Jordan lewis. Hodge is untouchable, and done next year, but it was all to fall to Lewis cepting he heard of the talk  trade stuff. It unpicked things a little.  I don't think he is worth three years at melbourne, bad deal for the dees, but coupling those two trades,  2017 first rounder and two seconds this year and cap relief gave the hawks T mitchell [a gun without doubt] and JOM. Bold stuff. 

 

But Sam Mitchell is a player  any club is better with. List wise, first 22 and just in the change rooms. Do not underestimate culture, character and drive.

C;mon Alex,
We're waiting to hear and see the number one draft pick for the lady demons fc from Mexico.
Is she a ruckman or rover or have you recruited a few.:thumbsup:

Police and ambulance say a man received minor injuries in a crash at High Wycomb around 1.20am today, but would not confirm Cousins was involved.

 

A warrant was issued for the 38-year-old's arrest yesterday after he failed to appear in a Perth court on drug and breaking AVO charges.

For those considering subscribing to the footy via Watch AFL next year, they have changed their

payment system.  Instead of a yearly package, they're charging $23 per week or $38 per month..

 

Suggest you subscribe through a AFL club to get a decent discount and a yearly subscription.

One time Carlton star Chris Yarran departs Richmond without playing a single game.

A sad end for someone who could be such an electrifying player.

Seems to be a truck load of West Aussies returning home this year.

 

Also seems to be an increase in the "mental issues" being bandied about.......

Shane Yarran charged with aggravated assault

 

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2016-11-16/shane-yarran-charged-with-aggravated-assault

 

"The 27-year-old advised the Dockers on Tuesday that he had been charged for an incident on the weekend that allegedly involved a family member."

 

Word on the Soi is that the "family  member" is his wife.

 

If found guilty,  hard to see him remaining on the list, especially with his priors.

And long may that continue.... No, in all seriousness, I emphasize with the saints having being subjected to Lyon, the draw then that bounce and veritable itinerancy. GL Alex and thx for the heads up Croc!

 

But if i am wrong again and it is melbourne, Alex you have zero sympathy from me!! 

 

The avatar bet stands for any pie out there. It is about the only game they get up for before fading mid season.  I smell change.

 

Awwwww.....if your a Vic you will quickly learn which side the toast is buttered in here fella....scroll back to about week 18 and read all about it....your new buddy dosent have any sympathy of us VIC's....Make sure you read about the Vic IQ....and how unfair the Gf is played in Melbourne......

Meanwhile the draft happened.....looks like no one was interested, apparently this was a weak draft....ho sorry for the Bombers....really i am.....the Dees knew that thats why they spent up big last year, it was all whoahrr about going back to the draft this season with pic 2 million and 2....still its reported in the big small paper the Dee's picked 2 lads left of centre, reading into it with my warped sense of humor it means they just pulled the kids out of a hat .....

 

So when can we welcome drew too the Eagles?....i havent heard a thing.........there is a song going around about that.....

Fair enough, 

 

ESS      4.8 (32)  10.16 (76)  16.17 (113)     19.21 (135)

MELB  3.3 (21)     5.5 (35)      8.8 (56)           11.9 (75)

 

I was there. It wasn't the greatest grandfinal but comprehensive enough.

 

Drugstuff. I am not an apologist. Hird screwed up but it's done. Hope that is not going to be an ongoing problem.

Yep that's one of the reasons I can't stand Essendon... it's there supporters, the margin is never enough, I recall the last time we played at windy hill 7 goals down 10 min into the 3rd Bennett booted one from centre etc etc ending up rolling them by 4 goals, something like a 15 goals from the point.....

And let's not forget way back after the dees got thumped big time record score etc by the lions, bombers next top 4 too 7 to 1 st quarter you can all go home black and red and they did at half time... just loved it...

Ive met sheedy nice guy shame about the club he coached....glamor boy has but you guys back 50 years.... what was it 10 swillion loss last year? That means there in solvent.... with a bit of luck they will relocate to tassie, id like to see that...

Good to have you back safe and sound AlexRRR.

Glad you enjoyed your trip.

 

Monday is the pre-season and rookie draft day so have another couple of days to sweat on the possible recruitment

of the Big Dish.

 

Hard to make an assessment of the draft for WC really.

After the first half a dozen, seems to be a bit of a lottery.
