Re: Jaxons come on down

We love rumours wether they end up true or false doesnt really matter, just gives us something to get excited about. Keep up the good work Jax These aren't rumors felix.

Did they everton say trade bait or did they say we need significant upgrade on them, implying a replacement from the draft thats better. Read before you assume.

Re: Pick 14

For pick 14, Ryan Clarke is probably still my #1 choice ahead of the other mids in our range. Just looks like an out and out gun, likes to get forward and kick goals, gets crazy amounts of the ball, clearance king, hard working pure mid. Read his write-up on afl.com.au; they say there is little dow...

Gives us 4 vacancies on the senior list, one of those filled with Sinclair upgrade. So three players bought in via the draft. Happy with those delistings

No upgrade for Sinclair? Likely to be better than 2 of those so seems unfair.
That's why Ray is delisted
Your forgetting the two list spots we filled with Carlisle and Freeman

Re: 2015 - Draft & Trade Thread

Hate to admit it but the cheats have done very well. Traded out two possibly ineligible players and now have picks 4, 5, 23, 24, 25 in the draft. Five in the top 25. I find a little bit of solace in the fact they have all those picks in what is according to some 'the weakest draft in over a decade'.

If you don't already have it on your IQ box do yourself a favour. Shame you can't delete half the file with IQ! On again tonight. You can set it as a manual recording through the setup menu. Set it to record from 10:43PM to 11:59PM on 504 for those with HD. Cheers for the post, would have missed it!

Re: 2016 team. Finals?

I would hope for a 12-9 finish next year provided we get our trades and have some luck with injury etc. However realistically I wouldn't be surprised if our performances next year will be similar to this years and we end on a similar win loss ratio.
