It's also an absolute joke that Stratton didn't make the team but Rance gets in as per usual.

Rance broke the record for intercept possessions this year

Murdoch is on a list of about 5 blokes who possibly dont belong at AFL level. Murdoch, Thurlow, Parsons, Kolo and maybe Bews being the prime ones.They're who we are talking about when we say that the cats list isn't very deep, along with the rotating roster of kids we have. Personally I think Murdoch is better than most of those, but that means he gets more games and attracts more ire from the bigfooty crowd for the dreadful sin of being below average at football.

Kolo is fine at AFL level, Bews goes ok. The others you mentioned are poo poo tho

Genuinely surprised the Suns have dumped Barlow, he was one of their best in the Geelong pummelling getting 35 touches. You'd figure they'd want someone with his good character and ability in such turbulent time at the

Fair enough, although by looking at his social media it didn't seem like he was expecting the chop.

If he wasn’t expecting the chop after not getting into a terrible Good Coast side all year then he wasn’t paying enough attention

He did break his leg last year wiping out half the season, then had his jaw broken this season requiring a plate and also resulting in him getting nerve damage to his face and Bell's palsy in the process, so it's not like he's been fit and raring to go all year.

True but he spent enough time fit and not in the side to realise I’d have thought

And on song chat: I think it's interesting that apart from Port with "Never Tear Us Apart", more teams haven't co-opted real songs as unofficial anthems. I think Richmond tried to do something with Darryl Braithwaites Horses, but it didn't stick.

If we end up with having traded Hogan and two first rounders for two defenders, one of whom is 26, over the last two years that’s pretty god damned awful trading and maybe we should stop

Melbourne were more interested in getting him out than Freo were in taking him in the end

jfc, Peter Bell giving a press conference on Trade Radio, then Barrett just cuts it off to give some update about nothing. Are these blokes still salty about not knowing about the Lyon poach?

It was just weird more than anything, Bell was doing his press conference answering journo's questions, and Barrett who was in the studio just comes in over the top and cuts to something else mid-question. It obviously didn't effect the press conference as they were just taking the feed, but it came off really strange as you would have figured people would want to hear what Bell has to say given the trade week Freo have had.

Was it not more relevant trade news or something?

It’s a bit loving rich of Tim Kelly’s family to come out and criticise Geelong given he could be back in Perth already if he didn’t just want to chase perceived easy success with West Coast.

I don’t think we should criticise a guy for not wanting to go to Freo. Apparently Lachie Neale was scathing in his exit interview and told Ross there’s at least 10 blokes there who are straight up taking the piss.

Also just thinking on the Lyons thing: if they wanted to get rid of him then they should have traded him away not delisted him with a year to run on his deal. Gold Coast are already a basket case but good luck to them attracting established players next year after pulling that move, it would be in the forefront of every players mind who gets an offer from them

Lyons wanted out to go play with his brother
