Round 15: Teams & In Game Discussion
- Thread starter THCLT
- Start date
Sunday carnage has stepped up too another level.
T Mac, Dev and a forced (C) on Fyfe due to a late in to Ahearn.
Knew I was due for a bad season, but the last few weeks have been a disaster. (just have to laugh about it now.)
Anyway, onwards and hopefully upwards. Will keep on going and try and make the most of this season.
Fyfe to ?
The Fyfe injury will be very interesting for the coaches in the top 10. Will be intriguing to see who holds and who trades. We should get an idea to see who still has trades to keep going. Best of luck to all the coaches here, who are in with a chance. Will be cheering you home.

Final scores thread up. I’m tipping there’ll be quite a bit of a gap between the good and the bad!

here we go again , all the hype in the world before a kid plays a game
Boyd , Schache , McCartin to name a few in recent seasons to name a few.
From the little bits and pieces he does look very good.
Hamish Ogilvie is probably on the plane right now to Ikon Park working on a deal for the # 1 pick involving Mitch McGovern and/or Rory Sloane.
or just wait a few seasons for a club to develop Lukosius and then lure him back home , by then JJ , Lynch and Tex will be gone so might be Fog , Lukosius and McG.
Carlton would be dangerous with Curnow & Lukosius

Hey Herbie looks like you're all over it. You are right, we're into Shiel, similar to Lynch to the Pies, helps when these players grew up barracking for your club. Do you want a recruiting role at Ikon Park? 
Shiel is the one (and Hopper) , Giants have let players go in the past , depends how highly they regard Taranto , Setterfield , Shipley etc and who is in their academy coming through.
Is the premiership window still open for the Giants and Shiel is the big question.
Geez I hope we can land Lynch and he gets his body right , Lynch and Cox together with de Goey , WHE , Treloar , Stephenson etc etc
I would love to but would try and convince Crisps and Curnow to the Holden Centre

This years draft is pretty strong, so hopefully we can land number 1, maybe a priority pick, just bluffing that we don't want it. We also have a couple of other clubs 2nd rounders.
We have a massive 5 weeks coming up which will tell a lot where we are at and where we are heading.
The thing with the Giants is how they have worked out all their contracts and if they are back ended.
Scully was on huge money.
7th season now so you would think Cameron , Coniglio , Davies , Greene , Kelly , Patton , Shiel , Ward etc would all be on $ 500 k + a season easily.
Salary restraints may mean they let some players go like they did in the past.
Ahern , WHE , Pickett were all on $ 300,000.00 and were moved on to free up cash.
Adams , O'Rourke , Treloar , Tyson were all let go as they new what was coming through.
If they want high selections again it would not surprise me if Shiel and/or Hopper left for the right deal.

My view on it is that pick 1 is almost certainly going to be overrated.
Raynor-2017
Mcgrath-2016
Weitering-2015
Mccartin-2014
Boyd-2013
Whitfield-2012
Patton-2011
Swallow-2010
Out of this group, Raynor probably too early to decide, however literally every other pick 1 has been mediocre or worse than expectation. If you were to trade pick 1 for pick 4/5/6 + late first round pick you're almost guaranteed to be better off.
Boyd/Mccartin/Weitering I'm not sure will even be AFL standard
Mcgrath/Swallow B graders, lacks point of difference to excel
On the bright side
Patton-I actually still have strong hopes for
Whitfield-Only 1st pick in the last 8 years that's actually somewhat deserving of the potential opportunity cost.
REGARDLESS, despite having history against him, I'm still leaning towards the belief that if you have pick 1, pick Lukosius. We saw with Brisbane last year that you always pick best available if you have pick 1 or a pick that high even if he doesn't particular fit your needs.
You either keep pick 1 and pick Lukosius, or you trade pick 1 out to a club that needs him at a ridiculously high price.
