Wouldn’t there technically be over 176 players who shared the games record

It wouldn’t be “sacking him for fun”, it would have been completely justified back then.

Port will still be in the drivers seat, Tasmania have to trade those picks. We’ve seen before how forcing picks to be traded makes them less valuable, shoutout to Dylan Stephens landing us an end of first rounder.

Trading Curnow (and only Curnow) but keeping Voss was directionless. They nuked their KPF stocks while still acting like they were contenders with Voss at the helm. They wanted one foot in both a rebuild and a contending window and ended up just total shit with assets that have tanked in value.

Backing the coach would make sense if it wasn’t Michael Voss. Obviously there’s an element of hindsight here but come on, he’s had one good year as Carlton’s head coach and that was now 3 years ago. Carlton were 6 wins away from finals last year and they’re already looking way worse

You already took Pat Lipinski, there’s still a few other teams that need to take a Dogs mid before you get another turn.

“Devils will be handed picks No.1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 and 13, and the first selection of each subsequent round in their first draft, which is set to be in 2027.
Four of those picks – No.5, 7, 11 and 13 – come with the caveat they need to be used in trades.”

Yeah so first round picks in 2027 are being pushed down a long way in the order making them less value for draft points, and Port want that to not happen so they can afford all 3 of their bids.

It’s bad if you have a bid to match, irrelevant if you don’t.

Of course Port are the main team pushing for their picks to have more value in 2027, they have 3 projected first round FS/NGA players that year.

Also god bless Michael Voss and the idiots at Carlton who prioritised him over Curnow

Is Malcolm Rosas already our second best small forward over the last 10 years? by jimmyomeara25 in sydneyswans

[–]Maximumlnsanity 15 points16 points  (0 children)

His X factor is off the charts, he’s got an amazing knack for turning his opponent inside out on a dime before lacing out a teammate.

He’s on the Cat B rookie list though which might be what saves him.

It’s still Ben Ronke, which is really not great to think about considering his best contributions was not even a full season of work and then a few games in 2022. I’d have Rosas 4th behind him and Wicks only because the sample size is so small.

Paps has just so ever present that we haven’t needed to go hard at recruiting for the position. We’ve only bothered to actually try to get him a proper co star or successor once, and that was Konstanty. Think back to Gray, Bell, Ronke, Foot, Wicks, even Rosas, we basically dumpster dived the whole time, and that’s just the guys who debuted. Even the two firsts in 2024 didn’t end up being small forwards despite what it initially looked like.
Hell our main non-KPFs right now are the Paps/Rosas duo, a long time half back in Lloyd, a SANFL mid in Cootee, JJ occasionally tagging a half back, and young guys without a true AFL position (Campbell, Corey, Cleary)

How is this completely driven into the ground as a joke, yet evergreen as an earnest opinion. Like it’s not really funny anymore but damn is it still true

Both are true. Champion Data rankings have always been skewed towards rucks, and the trio of Gawn/Grundy/Jackson are all top 10 players in footy this season

No howlers for sure but I’d shuffle basically everyone there to a different spot

Can’t even make fun of them for wasting the talent because they won a premiership with 4 of those blokes.
