Nah keep Brouch.
Smith and Fog are non-negotiable keeps.
Have to keep at least 1 of Keath and Hartigan. I prefer keeping Keath because he's good but if we're going full rebuild maybe cashing in on his higher value is better.
Betts will still be a threat, don't play him every week and give him a coaching role for the young kids. Be s**t for the club to trade him
Not sure we are in a position to demand much. We want him gone. He can't stay and everyone knows it.
That proves my point !! Grundy was probably brainwashed like the rest of us when he was young
I thought he was linked to the Gold Coast? Surely that is a simple trade then for Jenkins + 3 for Luko?
Definitely gone then, has he got a fishing trip booked?
I said earlier that I expected something like this to happen... but surely they couldn't actually be that arrogant and stupid... surely?
I agree that we need to draft another KPD in the next year or 2 but they generally take a few years to develop. I think a 2nd KPD is a fairly easy position to find a backup for a few years when Talia is ready to retire. By then hopefully Butts is ready to take the main mantle with Doedee as the 2nd tall/intercepting defender.
Plenty of teams have found a 2nd KPD in a state if we needed to as backup. Gold Coast picked up Hombsch and Sam Collins last year who would both have been ok to fill that roll for a few years whilst we developed someone else.
Especially if we're paying part of his salary.
Even more than that, we need to consider whether we want to make a flag competitor a better team.
Why haven't we had a crack at Cog?
Who's going to be our chop out ruckman next year with Jenkins gone?
Cmon ... why would he come to AFC now? What exactly are the list management team offering him? All the Frog cakes he can eat?

They can get the same amount from Blues, Saints, North etc.
We really need $1.5m to make an attractive bid.
From what I was told, I wouldn't 100% rule it out happening, but he won't be the one initiating the move and he does want to stay. All this talk about him going to St.Kilda, Richmond, Carlton etc is from his manager soliciting offers since he's a RFA next year and they are gauging his worth around the league.
The question will be if we want to pay that asking price next year and if we're not then they may look at moving him now while they control the situation.
Cos it would be laughed at. He has no SA connection and there are ten clubs in Victoria to choose from.
This is where the lack of our State footy system to develop elite talent bites.

I don't know where to begin. (And yes, other BFers, I know it's pointless)
Yes, it's a rumour thread. Yes, Rucci's rumour is that it will be KPMG. Or it could be PwC, or Ernst & Young, or Deloitte... Which firm, is not relevant to what we're talking about. You have been persisting with this misunderstanding of the nature of such a review, equating it to an accounting audit or at least over-emphasising the relevance of "reviewing results", apparently based on your view that these are all "accounting firms". This is the point I made in my post, that is the misunderstanding you were persisting with in the post I quoted / replied to.
Is it really that hard to follow the thread of the discussion / argument?
- and with that, I'm out.
Let's be honest, they are all hopeless. You get 1 partner and 6 grads. The Grads do 90 percent of the work which is mostly copied and edited from other engagements to fit.
They would do much better to engage specialist consultants than waste time on these guys.
If they were going to go down that road, I'd atleast go to a McKinsey or BCG.
We should still have a crack - even if it is just to drive his price up and mess with the Vic Clubs.
You can be out as much as you like, its your prerogative
the discussion with accountancy firms was brought up because of Richmonds use of them, but hey, you think they were wrong in using one, and you can have that opinion , they may have been better using Malcolm blight or buck cunnigham but they didn't
Ruuci has rumoured we are
How will they do a review? How any accountancy firm will do one, Ive used Jennifer Ma before so I know how she operates, but Im sure you know Con if your position is as you say
Geelong and Richmond reviews resulted in getting Neil Balme as football manager.
No review needed to suggest that will lead to more success than having Burton in that role.
