Keeley Skepper traded to west coast.

Skepper + future 4th -> West Coast
Pick 66 + future 5th -> Carlton

Sounds like a salary dump to me.

Honestly don't understand what happened, i'd have her in my best 21. She was there for the better part of 18months before she was dropped, never to return.

Wish her the best.

Did you just vote? Because we just got a vote for HOK, not HOF.

That was me, and it was a mistake. I got HOF and HOK mixed up. I wanted to vote for O'Farrell. The forum has no mechanism to amend or delete votes.

Thats ok, i assumed as much.
With that vote HOF got the last spot.
Onto the bench which i just started.

Robert Heatley Stand / Pick our team in parts - Part 4 - 5 on the bench
Last post by kruddler -
So in case you are unaware, there is no sub anymore, so 5 on the bench this year.

Choose the 5 who deserve a spot on the bench that compliment our starting 18.

Assume everyone is fit

Some people choose a 7th defender
Some people choose a 7th forward
Some people choose a backup ruck
Some people choose all of the above.
Some people simply choose the best players that are not in the starting 18.

Team so far is....
FB - Cowan - Weitering - Newman
HB - Saad - O'Farrell - Haynes
C - Walsh - Cripps - Smith
HF - Ainsworth - McKay - Hayward
FF - Williams - Kemp - Moir
R - Pittonet - Hewett - Cerra

When we made the prelim in 2023 I thought it was the beginning of about 5 years of finals and being a contender. I didn't think we would be rebuilding 2 years later.

...and i'm not sure you will find many who thought anything other than the same.

But here we are.

....and people are trying to say it 'needed' to happen.
Obviously, i disagree.

2 years is a long time in footy.  2 years earlier the Dees were premiers and we didnt look like making finals.

Instead we beat them against the odds (which tells a story of itself) to make a prelim from outside the top 4.

Whilst we all expected to go on with it, 12 months later when the wheels had fallen off, it became apparent that the game had gone away from us.
