I am telling you now, if the AFL restrict the bump any further or even get rid of it, I will go and supprt lawn bowls or something like that as it will have more toughness and hard knocks!!! Honestly, the AFL needs to f*** these do gooders off and leave the game alone. It is still the best game in t...

Anyone know who Channel 7 have got???

Just wondering whether anyone knew who is going to be commentating on 7? Are we going to have the return of the mighty "Bruce"? Whoever it is will be better than 10!!!!

Well Bolton got signed so my understanding is it will hve to be one of Heff, Lee or Nash as im sure all others are either untouchable, signed a contract within the last couple of months or have not been listed for more than 2 years. Out of those, I guess I'm hoping Heff. I would probably add Campo ...

I think it is a great cause and everyone that can get down there should. I wish I could make it, but I live up here in Mildura. I might however have some mates that might want to get involved and they live in Melbourne!!

Please dont let Henno be re-drafted!!! If you are going to redraft anyone from that group, how about Ben Jolley. Very unlucky.

Should have been 2 extra's on that list though. Bolts and Pev. CANNOT believe Pev got another contract. Bullshit!!!!!

So, looking at that list, I would suggest that J.Johnson (B&F, premiership) was the best product of that draft, and therefore the recruiting done that year was first class. True enough, but the other valuable pick ups were; Chris Heffernan - premiership 2000 (ESS) Martin Pike - premiership 1999...

He would be worth a look for the PSD, but i think we should wait and see what happens around the place in the next month or so regarding the national draft and also other clubs delistings. See what happens!!!!!

I think it is great that Freo totally f***** up their trade and draft. Have got no sympathy for a run about club that have little or no heart that play shit football. Hopefully they draft 2 or 3 duds and they end up missing the finals!!!!!!! Would be so sad!!!!

Feel sorry for Solly though.

The only thing I will say, is that HOW, can we offer Winders a straight out 2yr deal (nothing against him personally), but only offer JJ a 1 yr deal????

Not in the same league, yet, and is just not right.

I reckon that will be the way we go Mrs. Merc's. Scotty is our best, and probably only, CHB on our list, at the moment, capable of holding the position down. All things being right for next year with Lloydy back, Johnsy back with some footy under his belt and another pre season and some bloke called...

Couldn't agree more BD. That line up does it for me, plus your rotations that you have mentioned. Obviously during the year we will have injuries/bad form and so forth, so maybe Lee or one of our new draftees will fill a vacant position.

Tim Notting would be a great pick up as he can play anywhere!!!! Being only 27 he should have at least 4-5 years in him yet. Has come from a highly successful side so he will be drilled with what is needed and would add some great experience. And mind you, he is a good Wimmera boy, and the Wimmera b...

I agree with all of the players that people are bantering around for delisting. Henno, Reynolds, Bolts, and maybe Pev. With the others obvious absentees being Solly, Rama and Rioli. But with some of the talk on here about passing on some draft picks makes me feel physically ill!!!!! This is supposed...
