Frog has two problems. He's ****ing slow and no one wants slow players. His only point of difference is a defensive attitude and a willingness to run, teams would rather draft a kid and try to hammer that attitude into them. Not a lot of slow wingmen out there and he's not a starting best 22 centre square player for any team in the league, not even the 18th team.

Wait, just thought of a third problem. He was injured this year and when he did play he didn't score a single point, he barely tackled and he won less contested ball than his average. He's probably at his lowest value since being drafted.

I know we dont do Super Coach much in here.(going of Ave)
But his drop off was stark this year. almost 40% down.
He played mid much more in 2020 due to our injury list. (he was ranked our number 2 player at the club last year. Jed was best)
He was pretty consistent as a wingman for the 4 years previous.

Has he nominated or exploring what options are out there because we haven’t offered anything?
Wouldn’t know, but you wouldn’t be exploring your options unless you know someone is interested.

How much of this is a drop off or that he missed a lot of preseason and the regular season and started way back from a fitness POV

More positional.
We have options back in the midfield, so he didn't get in there. + added young blokes.
Midfield is his his best position. Thats why 2020 was a spike year.
He has been ranked elite for his wing work in the past.
Sleevo, Bailey, Powell laz etc are getting minutes now as wingman.
So he is playing less in there.
If a club needing mid depth takes him he will perform for them.
He is much better than he is rated on BF.
 
Dumont would be real value for a team who already has paid for their shiny baubles but have realised they need defensive accountability and consistency to climb the ladder and win the big one.

He is a big bodied mid who would have had a much better career on paper if we didn't have one of the best contested beasts playing in the middle over the last decade.

Criminally underrated player.

The idea that Cunnington has cost Trent his career as an on-baller is revisionism. Trent had most of 2020 to prove what he could do in the midfield without Cunnington and hardly covered himself in glory. He used to dominate VFL teams in the midfield but he isn't particularly strong, agile or clever compared to your average best 22 AFL midfielder. There's a reason why we use him on the wing and that's because he doesn't have the attributes of a high quality AFL midfielder.

100% this.
Well said.

Bit of both. In supercoach terms (it’s actually helpful in this case because the 3300 point scaling accounts for the shorter games reasonably well) his 2020 was an outlier, largely thanks to his more prominent role with our injuries. He was bound to regress a bit as he returned to the wing. I’d like to think his true value is around his 2018-19 performance, but the reality is it’s probably a bit lower.

I'd say he’ll have a job next year one way or another. We’d be silly not to retain him if he doesn’t get a good deal elsewhere, and I can think of 4-5 lists where he’d fit in nicely.

Would he be better on a HBF than Atley?

I wonder if we'll hear about DT soon as well.
Sam Edmund was asked about this today and he believes North were taken aback when they were told it would take a fair deal to get Talia to leave Adelaide for a couple years. Looks like he wants years and $.

I heard somewhere on radio last week, that he was apparently fairly reluctant to leave Adelaide, partner settled with work and possible after footy opportunities lined up for him too. The big confirmation was that someone saw him buying full year's membership to the local pool in Adelaide!

Consistent with Adelaide posters saying he knows how to extract hefty contracts.

I’m honestly surprised Carlton isn’t having a serious look, would match their midfield to a tee..

Keep in mind Talia is very much a full back, taz is primarily a fb but can play other spots in a pinch. We really need to target a second/third talk type. If we miss. Walker is getting games
