Any and all moves for the coming off-season, here is the place.

Will be interested to see who Port poaches from our triple premiership winning side

 

[Scorpus]

Current status of players

Eb Marinoff - emphatically said she is staying

Erin Phillips - has left for Port Adelaide

Anne Hatchard - staying, confirmed

Sarah Allan - seemed to indicate she'd stay (employed by Crows)

Angela Foley - is leaving

 

[CrowsB4hoes]

I had mail that Hatchard was Ports number 1 target and was more likely to go.

This is paywalled but suggesting the same.

 

[CrowsB4hoes]

Also Phillips more likely to leave AFLW entirely and move to US.

[Firewalker]

Interesting part of that article;

“Due to Morphett being drafted last year, it's expected that Sydney will have to negotiate a trade with its crosstown rivals – rather than sign her as a free agent – in order to complete the deal.”

Hadn’t heard that before, wonder if that applies to all 2021 draftees or just GWS.

 

[ams4crows]

Presparkis and Gee headed to Essendon, Huge blow to Carlton two of their top 5 players



Is she really getting 150k there's no way any of our players are getting even half that from our club

 

[ams4crows]

Also interesting.... How are Port going to afford this again?

If a team can afford to pay 1 player $150,000, what is the collective salary amongst the whole team?

mentioned the other day Adelaide won't just lose players to Port Power, but there are players moving interstate.

 

[Pick4To6]

It’s absolute horse s**t that Port Power can grab Anne Hatchard and Erin Phillips and pay them $150,000 each and the actual club not hand over 1 single cent.

The AFL has turned into such a corrupt league, it’s totally ridiculous.

Isn’t there a salary cap?

 

[Pick4To6]

Isn’t there a salary cap?

AFLW Marquee player and female assistant role programs both fall outside of the salary cap.

Who are we paying our marquee player money to?

 

[Pick4To6]

Who are we paying our marquee player money to?

I’m not 100% sure, but I suspect Ebony Marinoff after St Kilda’s approach last year and Chelsea Randle, but I’ve heard small whispers the are going to offer Chelsea that assistant coaching role and spread it between the AFLW as well as use her leadership skills with Dan Jackson in the mens side.

 

[ams4crows]

If any Crows players want to move interstate for more cash other work opportunities like Chloe Sheer then good on them. It's the defecting to Port that will anger fans.

 

[Mr MysteryGuest]

Is Arnell getting the port job good for us?
She doesn’t have any pre-existing connections to our players so it can’t be used as a ploy to lore sone away.

 

[Mutineer]

Well Erin can only be an assistant or a player now it seems.

Are Port telegraphing that Erin has turned down the Coaching job?

 

[FR0GGY]

Wouldn’t all players be contracted until October ish yet the season is supposed to start in August?

 

[IddyBiddy]

Port have put offers to 15 Adelaide players and expect to land at least half of them. We’re going to be hard hit folks, it’s just the reality. Buckle up.

I sort of don't mind as they have to get players from somewhere. Hatchard will be a big blow though. Hopefully we can fill up with young talent.

 

[Scorpus]

I would have thought Port would put offers to every single one of our players.

I'd be very surprised if we could keep any of the players that can't get regular games

 

[Mego Red]

Isn't there a limit to how many players an expansion side can take from an existing club?

 

[flashcrow]

Isn't there a limit to how many players an expansion side can take from an existing club?

Eight?

 

[cmndstab]

Eight?

Kind of. We are able to lose up to eight players to expansion clubs. That doesn't mean each expansion club can take eight players - but you'd assume that most of our losses would be to Port.

Beyond those eight, other players can also choose to move but would require trades.

I don't mind if Port takes a bunch of our players, as long as they're not the important players. We can afford to lose some of our depth or fringe players, and those would be the ones with the most to gain by moving.
