Which club will he end up going to?

I reckon Collingwood, Hawthorn, St Kilda and the Western Bulldogs would be one of the likely destinations.

 

[DAWESOME!!]

Bullies are the best fit.

 

[grimlock]

Why not Carlton?

 

[Colonial]

Be interesting to see what the clubs offer for him

 

[GHamsandwich]

Why not Carlton?

 

[LFTWNG11]

Why not Carlton?

No one wants to go to Carlton.

 

[Jaeger]

Reckon he'll join his bro at the Pies.

 

[SterlingArcher]

Would offer up a second rounder. Good fit at any Vic club - especially those looking to develop a key back -

• Carlton - if we want Henderson forward, he'd be perfect
• St Kilda (likely to get rid of Fisher, Gwilt, Dempster and Simpkin in next 2 years, leaving them with Delaney + Bruce)
• W.Bulldogs - obvious, Roughead + developing Talia isn't a whole lot, can't keep playing Austin and Morris is getting on
• could Geelong be interested with Lonergan/Rivers getting on?
• Hawthorn maybe with Lake getting on and rumours re: Schoenmakers (leaving them with no real big key defenders)
• Melbourne could look to replace Frawley with him
• Pies would be interested - got his brother, there'd be doubts about Brown long-term with his injury history?

No's:

• Essendon - maybe not, Hooker/Hurley/Pears plus they wouldn't have a great pick to give up imo, I have doubts about the Ryder rumours so not sure where a good second rounder will come from that they will be happy to give up
• North - maybe not, Grima/Thompson/Firrito/Hansen/Tippett/C.Delaney is a fairly old group but they've got time and I reckon their draft picks will go elsewhere
• Richmond - maybe not, Rance/Grimes/Astbury/Chaplin is a decent line-up of quality and quantity

Hopefully GWS make him go through the pre-season draft out of principle.

What he said

Hopefully GWS make him go through the pre-season draft out of principle.

And what principle is that?

 

[Colonial]

And what principle is that?

Well we did take him when everyone else went meh. Also with the injury he has had and we stuck by him. Anyway lets just see who wants him and whats the best offer.

 

[master bate]

Not overly enamoured with his skills. But athleticism is positive.

I do wonder if a team like Coll (with his brother) and Melb (Tom McDonald) even Dogs (Roughead) would be overly keen on that big athletic but not overly skilled type. I think all of those teams would kind of figure if you use Geelong as an example they have the Tom Lonergan type guy who just needs more development and they should look to complement him with a Harry Taylor type of rebounding skillful tall. No doubt those clubs would be keen but they might be thinking lets go the draft and get a guy who has talent to do both rather than give up a valuable pick and end up with 2 similar players.

 

[woofles]

At the right price I wouldn't mind him but I do question his kicking. I'd rather we went a Lever/Marchbank with pick 5 who use the footy well and can do the same job

 

[etsal1]

I'd hope we are interested.

ABC's Adam White reckons he's headed to the Dees

 

[Scully2Folau]

The club has also released a statement confirming Frost and Jaksch have requested trades.

21 year olds acting like free agents.

 

[DAWESOME!!]

I do get why GWS supporters are a little miffed about Frost asking to leave, but realistically some of your players were always going to walk as you ran out of list spots and cap space, and couldn't give them opportunity.

This was always intended and why the initial support in terms of space and picks was so so generous.

With the draft choices you made, this was especially going to apply to your talls, and so far you seem to have lost the ones that are more replaceable and kept the higher end talent.

 

[Demonheart]

21 year olds acting like free agents.

You had a different opinion when Scully moved to GWS, why is that?

 

[Turly]

Would be wrapped with him or Jaksch.

We're getting a little light on KPDs with Lake and Gibbo getting on

I was only kidding - I just query how he would have the info?

Same as most of 'em - reached behind himself into the back of his pants.
