And you know the AFLPA is taking notes, for next time the AFL goes with the "no need for changes to FA, players are getting to where they want" narrative.

Geelong asked the AFL for money outside the cap to help keep Kelly according to the AFL website. Surprised they didn’t give it to be honest.
The AFL is considering slashing the halftime break from 20 minutes to 10 in a radical move aimed at reducing the length of football matches.
Club chief executives were briefed on the proposal by league supremo Gillon McLachlan and football operations boss Steve Hocking at a meeting at AFL House ahead of last night’s national draft.
They are a funny lot at Essendon. Internal culture must be a blast !!
I know a great way to dramatically improve the AFL ...... the most positive innovation imaginable.
SACK STEPHEN HOCKING IMMEDIATELY.
He's a show pony who thinks he can make himself famous in the annals of the AFL by being the great reformer.
All he's being doing over the last couple of years is progressively stuff everything up.

Well saidAgreed, he is a silver tongued bell end who was nothing but a useless thug on the field.
The AFL executive are a bunch of ego maniacs driven by having their names plastered within the annals of history, where as, in reality their history will be based upon the wider football communities view which will be that they are a bunch of anals.
Fk Gil and Fk Hockbreathe.

The problem with current set up is that as directors of our game they not answerable to shareholders. The clubs have varying levels of power with most kowtowing as they are financially at the mercy of the AFL. They make Xi JinPing look like a really nice guy.Nice
The other significant and worrying issue regarding these arrogant and self-entitled tribe of AFL executives is the exorbitant amounts they pay themselves.
I've seen some figures indicating the number of AFL executives who have annual salaries over $1 mill / over $800,000 / over $500,000 / when ultimately they're just various grades of extremely average but glorified pen pushers. Gil's salary is preposterous - I've been told it's significantly greater than the $$ millions that's officially disclosed.
But the real obscenity is not merely the ridiculous amounts they pay themselves - it's the fact that they all band together and say, as they did last week, that the AFL has to cut back on the money it pays to country grass roots football ($10,000 here, $10,00 there) - because the AFL simply can't afford it.
Well - how about finding a few extra million a year by -
1 cutting the AFL staff by 1/3rd, and
2 reducing the fat salaries of those remaining by 1/3rd.
Those remaining on cut salaries won't like it, of course, but they'll have to accept it because they know they wouldn't get a job anywhere else.
Can hartley go to BHH and move in the mid term draft?
Fox Sports running with an article stating that last year Dodoro “poached a young gun from Hawthorn”. No wonder the flog believes his own hype with factually incorrect sh*t like this being put out there
Nice

Sounds as if dildoro is drinking his own bath water amongst other thingswho was this young gun
Mosquito. The young gun that is a million miles off itwho was this young gun
Well he has yet to play a bad game at AFL level for them.Fox Sports running with an article stating that last year Dodoro “poached a young gun from Hawthorn”. No wonder the flog believes his own hype with factually incorrect sh*t like this being put out there
Not to mention them trading pick 11 to Geelong for pick 27...Blues nab Martin for sweet FA. Further highlighting the incompetence of Gil Coast.
Well he has yet to play a bad game at AFL level for them.
There will need to be about half a dozen Gillionaires to keep the spine and the midfield up thereNow that Gilcoast has won this draft period, I wonder at how much Gilmoney it will take to keep them...
There will need to be about half a dozen Gillionaires to keep the spine and the midfield up there
The rest will get traded for 1st round picks just like at GillWS
Im sure they will hire actors to play supporters for the dayYes just think when the Gil Coast play GilWS in the Gil Final. 80k Of cardboard Gil placards in the stands to fill the MCG as the 5 supporters between the 2 clubs can’t make it, due to their teams playing in the NRL grand final the following week.
yep Gil will be kicking goals..
