Rowie on 5AA said Riley Knight has had a medical at Carlton today and is gone.

I've seen him get pillaged on the Crows board so clearly you lot don't really rate him.

I'm not particularly keen, but at 24 he's in the right age bracket for us and i guess there's still time to turn things around...and hopefully his body improves under Russell. If we land him, Teague must have had a fair bit to do with it and i'll back his judgment.
 
It might not seem like much but we have taken a hit to our forward ‘depth’ in Pickett, lebois, fasolo, Garlett (I think he was a forward) and Kerr all departing this year. Easily could take all the names being mentioned and not be wasting spots.

On top of that, there's no youngsters besides Owies on our list that we have developing away on our list through the NB's as well, this would allow Betts Papley Martin all sound in the forwards craft in their own way would be invaluable in passing on these traits to the youngsters coming through. If we somehow have the chance to draft another small/medium forward ontop of our trades I'd be getting another one in, personally without backing over things all again imo we have a very limited list depth in this area ...

Without quoting you all, a couple of years ago he looked like he was going to be really good and seemed to be a bit of a barometer for us. Has previously tagged and done well. Has had his fair share of injuries too.

But last couple of years gone backwards and was dropped.

Now given the shit show of our last 2 years, how much do we blame him and how much on the club? Plus had reportedly been unhappy for a couple of years and loves Teague.

I think he could be decent player if you can get him back on track.

He is uncontracted. What’s his cost? Who knows, I doubt it will be much, maybe between 40-60?

Probably thrown in the same trade as Eddie (you would assume)
 
Given all the 'presents' GC have been afforded, they're in a position to play bully and if the CFC don't cough up what they want, can simply let Martin slide.

I know that sounds ridiculous, but a mid-second rounder may mean little to them now and they may see this to be the right time to make a stand.

Then this is the time to bring PSD into the equation, 1.5 mill one year contract terms (with a wink and a nod we’ll extend an extra 2 for what is left of the agreed terms)

No way Melbourne can afford it and it would be pretty stupid of GC to pay that for someone who doesn’t want to be there even if they could afford it.

He rightfully got a little upset around this time last year, we may have done our dash....
Maybe he posted a rumour that didn't quite fit the guidelines for rumour only posting?

Oh, no hang on
That was me.

Of course he'll say that.

But they'll settle for an early second for sure.

But they're posturing to say that our 2020 2nd rounder isn't enough...but hopefully SOS can push that deal through in the end. That pick is likely going to be mid 20's and i think that's fair.

Thanks you literally saved me from posting that

What was he supposed to say “yea nah Martins ordinary aye” “happy to hand him
over for a future 4th”

We would probably get done for draft tampering
