    • Absolutely no corkie involved in that at all. He was on his own, not in a contest, he had taken 2 steps running and then reacted like the 3rd step was into a bear trap and collapsed straight away, no comment on it from commentators. A few minutes later he was jogging again but then went off.

      Time to trade him out anyway with martin, yeo and Roberts to fit in down there

  12. Adelaide: In Nicks’ press conference, he stated that untried youngster Billy Dowling was a chance to come into the side if Smith missed. Smith is looking unlikely to play after missing training due to back tightness.

  13. Western Bulldogs: Luke Beveridge on Tom Liberatore and midfield mix.

    “Libba’s good. He’ll train today and hopefully get through the session, so he should be available so we might be able to find some room for him,”

    “Obviously everyone understands if Libba is available, he plays and he becomes that central figure in the contest and at the stoppage in a way.

    “We’ll work around that and we’ll share the time through there. Again though, it’ll just be a bit of a different mix.”

  14. Western Bulldogs: Ryley Sanders – who was made the sub against the Saints – had “come under pressure” and that the 18-year-old was “learning all the time” about the club’s defensive structure.

    “It’s more about what (the younger players) are doing when they’re not directly involved in the game, and he’s learning all the time about where to be, whether we’ve got the footy or the opposition has it,” Luke Beveridge said.

    “It’s in that as to why he’s come off a couple of times and been subbed, and then found himself as the sub last week, so he gets it …

    “You’ve got to strike a balance of forcing the opportunity of a young man like Ryley, who’s going to be critical for our club in the future, and making sure you fortify your opportunity to win every week.”

  15. Adelaide: Rory Laird

    “I’d like to see Lairdy get back to that hunt. Maybe with some of these small changes we’ve taken that away from him. I think Rory will play quite a strong game this week. He’s keen to really hunt the footy”

  17. North Melbourne: Riley Hardeman ($117,300 DEF) will make his AFL debut on Saturday.

    A line-breaking defender from Swan Districts, Hardeman was selected by the Roos with pick No.23 in the 2023 AFL Draft after captaining Western Australia in the under-18 championships and earning All-Australian honours.

    The 19-year-old has been among the Roos’ best in his four appearances at VFL level, impressing with his pace and attack on the ball.

      I’m a long suffering owner but i thought he looked a lot better last night
      He’s still not 100% game fit and will be a steal at those projected prices
      What about Petrecca?
      Thanks always for you and the contributors efforts

      R2 – 102,733

      R4 – 98,072
      R5 – 70,459
      R6 – 55,081

      Almost half who owned him traded him out in a time of defense rookie shortages. That’s an interesting strategy

    • I don’t think you can run him on field as you’d be giving up too many points. For my team, I could swing Livingstone forward and bring Sweet in at R3. A month of solo rucking is probably $120k+ cash generation.

      • Depends a lot on structure. For anyone with Jackson at R2 and miscellaneous rookie at F6, I know I’d prefer a number 1 ruck at R2 to push that forward rookie to the bench

  23. WDE: Harley Reid officially out of round 7.

    “Harley has been fantastic for us over the first six weeks,” said General Manager Football Gavin Bell. “But we feel it is appropriate to manage him this week to give him the best chance to continue to be available and play at a high level for the remainder of 2024.”

    • Hi Stonks,
      I have had a very busy day. Apologies.

      Jordan Sweet has a breakeven of -5 after one game. Of course, everything will be clearer after game 2.
      He is forecast to go up $46k to $205,100 Rd 8 then another $32,500 to $237,600 Rd 9.

      I will post a more concise price projection after this round.
      Cheers

  25. Shouldn’t the “Latest Updates” for the current week be pinned to the top of the articles on the 1st page CT – so any rumors or updates (like D’Ambrosia being a possible OUT for Sundays game) are front & centre for easy access. I know its the one article I check frequently, especially since it needed to be moved from its original placement on the right side of the site.

    • Absolutely right Lisa, I don’t know why this post was removed but it is back pinned to front page.

      I will be a bit late with the latest news today due to a medical appointment.
      Apologies.

  28. Tribunal update:

    Lachie Neale – Neale was sighted for striking Callan Ward during the second quarter at Manuka Oval on Thursday night.
    The fine is $3,750 with an early plea as a second offence.
    It’s the second striking charge for Neale this season, after he was fined following an Opening Round skirmish with Carlton’s George Hewett

    Callan Ward -was sighted for striking Lachie Neale during the second quarter at Manuka Oval on Thursday night.
    Ward can accept a $2,500 fine with an early plea.

    Mason Redman – was fined for striking Collingwood player Lachie Schultz in the second quarter. Redman can accept a $2,500 fine with an early plea.

    The MRO graded all three incidents as intentional, low impact and body contact, leading to the fines.
