The only shocking thing about players being shopped around by the club is the fact that Ken didn't drop some of them when he had the oppurtunity.

If he doesn't see their future being at Port then why did he leave underperformers in the team for so long?
Very true point
 
Could a scenario of Lobbe for Steele be a steal for us?

Lobbe for a pick between 20-30. On-trade to GWS for Jack Steele.
I don't think that ' steal' is the way to think. Really needs to be a fair deal for both clubs

That's a good pick for a guy considered a fringe player.

If we scored pick 20 for Lobbe I'd be keeping it for the draft. Could get someone like Battle with it.
 
Steele wouldn't be a fribge player at Pafc

You have no way of knowing this. Jimmy Toumpas can get 40 possessions in a sanfl game, he'd get 50 in the neafl. No one would give up pick 20 for him, not even another Port supporter.

Given Lobbe's terrible contract I can imagine Chris Davies yelling "start the car" to KT waiting in the carpark while he gathers together the signed paperwork as frantically as possible.

Steele is younger and has already shown more at AFL level than Toumpas.
 
Mitch Cleary on EON sports radio this AM mentioned StKilda have or will be making a play for HH, they have room in thier salary cap. No mention of what may come back to us. With Watson playing on Essendon not as keen on HH.

St Kilda is also linked to everyone it seems, but i can settle for pick 10. Just about the right value for HH.

Richo must think he can get far more out of Hamish than Ken has.

Given the other club Jack Steele has been link to is St Kila this could be a dream result.
 
what about our rookie list?

Nathan Krakouer should be promoted, he's done enough to warrant elevation back to the senior list

Will Snelling could go either way, could be elevated or could be retained for another year

Cam Hewitt and Dan Houston should be retained for another year at least, still developing

then who do we recruit? is Luke Reynolds a safe assumption?

Everyone has room in their cap except us.

Reynolds or a ruckman.

Would be plenty of interest in Steele. Any word on how bad his foot injury is

I really don't think Krakouer has done enough to be promoted. So many lazy bloody kicks last year in the backlines, several of which directly turned over for a goal. Also a number of lazy moments in defence where he couldn't be bothered running with his man. Sure, he also had some very nice moments - but the inconsistency in effort is killing us and Krak is a prime example in the playing group of that. I wouldn't be upset if we delisted him tbh.

Also, people seem to be getting overly hyped about Steele because they hear his name on this board a lot. I'd suggest heavily watering down expectations of him if he does arrive. The NEAFL is a full tier below SANFL level, and his performances at AFL level have been ok but not anything great. He is no certainty to walk straight into our best 22.
 
There would be truth but complete misdirection about this whole 9 players on $500k wank.

We probably do have 9 players that will get paid that much next year when you factor in match payments, but what everyone is running with and assuming is that we have 9 players on $500k a year for the next 3-4 years which would be total BS.

Front/back ended deals probably has us in a perfect storm for this year, however all it would take would be for the Gus/Ryder money decision to be made and all the perceived salary cap 'pressure' is gone as we use that money to cover these wages + more to attract a FA.

IMO the club was stung hard with the AFL'S ruling on top ups and is probably putting in place a contingency for when they canvass the other 17 clubs and will eventually deny us the ability to use their non-paid salary how the current rules dictate.
