Who gets a win? Honestly can't see the Pear being anything other than 5-0 to start the year. Anything less than that is a failure.

That has got to be the most terrible program format I've seen.

The lion looks like my great uncle Clayton, they've just spun the head on WCE and Hawthorn, the bombers look like a new line of speedos, there's no F in Freo, could they not find a demon or Saint symbol? Swans, Geelong and GWS are purely comical.

Next year's potential No.1 pick Dougie Cochrane has been APPROVED to be in Port Adelaide's NGA.

His application was today ticked off after a thorough process which saw Cochrane's family provide a confirmation of Aboriginal descent certificate.

No real shock there.
Very good get for Port, will get the number 1 pick for close to the equivalent of their first plus chump change

I think they finish bottom 8 next year so their first plus change will be enough.

Easily, the Houston trade was the first part of the plan. Get into the 2024 draft, leave 2025 alone and hit 2026 ( Cochrane ) and 2027 ( Pilot, Salopek, Rodan ) to bring in some top end talent.

Rodan is part of Essendon’s NGA too and still a way off but the club seems pretty confident he will choose us.
Of course if we remain a rabble it will make his decision easy :)
