EXPLAINER: All the details about Free Agency, Trade Period

Here's everything you need to know about the Trade Period, Free Agency and more

www.afl.com.au

 

[speedy]

Willing to work around the fringes? What the **** does that even mean leppa you tosser?

He also said they were happy to consolidate their draft resources or something? Their first pick is 39 this year.

‘Get the right result’ lol

 

[bigosacr]

no way Ah Chee goes through the PSD weagles would be all over him

 

[DocSholl]

Whilst I think * should have taken the best offer, I respect that they didn’t.

**** hawthorn

The league doesn't need the Hawks landing a superstar for mid picks and not losing any players of note in the process. Good on the cheats

 

[Gasometer]

Thanks all who kept me entertained, intrigued, curious, and invested during the past ten or so days.

The real treasure was the friends made along the way.

Speak for yourself

Im the official ****wit

 

[tales129]

Matt Rosa sounds ****ed

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Holy ****, Rosa is awkward as ****.

 

[backtothedraft]

Satisfied with the trade period. I’m glad we were unwilling to stick our hand up for another average player seeking a payday.

I’d be disappointed if we don’t get creative and use the mechanisms available to us to bring in players via DFA and train on SSP selection. Would be happy to continue to keep some of our players in limbo while we continue to assess the landscape of players. Particularly kids dropping out of successful programs.

Hopefully a couple of good appointments in development and some of our lesser knowns can take big steps this preseason.

 

[krakouers]

Holy *, Rosa is awkward as *.

Always kinda was

 

[DarkPhoenix]

"He (Merrett) has told Brad Scott at least two times directly that he doesn't want to play under him"

Coach of the millennium.

 

[DocSholl]

Matt Rosa sounds ****ed

I am certain Welsh overruled him

 

[Ball Dont Lie]

Outside of Spargo no major contract or list spot damage done. Huge improvement on last year. Now just use the two 2nd rounds picks on list needs in the draft and we got ourselves a 12 month break till we can self sabotage again.

 

[roospur]

Imagine being the club that had their captains career torpedoed, have same said player for another 4 years on $900k per season.

And received in return???

Well played by Collingwood I’d say, they lose nothing.

So you're saying we should have accepted a future second? Give me a spell pykies

 

[shinboner magic]

Imagine being the club that had their captains career torpedoed, have same said player for another 4 years on $900k per season.

Well played by Collingwood I’d say, they lose nothing.

I know you love your draft picks but what’s a rd 2 pick going to do.
And don’t think for a minute that the pies were going to pay the whole salary.
Ppl like you cry about the club getting walked over but when we do stand our ground , ppl are still unhappy.

 

[DocSholl]

Pykies would probably trade Sheez for a late first once he hits 25

 

[Hop_lessly Devoted]

Speak for yourself

Im the official ****wit

Yes I saw that. All part of the rich tapestry.

 

[kanga kanga kanga]

Thanks for all the updates over the trade period giantroo.

 

[Tas]

Imagine being the club that had their captains career torpedoed, have same said player for another 4 years on $900k per season.

Well played by Collingwood I’d say, they lose nothing.

You imagine them beating Brisbane next year in the finals with their ageing side?

 

[krakouers]

Damn…

 

[perplexed]

Are you okay?

Nobody's career has been torpedoed. Jy wanted to be trade out and failed. He will almost certainly come back to the club and apply himself as before.

 

[Forever North]

The Merrett trade is a just a fantastic win/win. Hawthorn miss out on a gun player and possibly a flag if they go oh so close next year. Essendon keep their captain who simply doesn't want to be there, hates the coach and walks back into the toxic sewer that is Essendon.

 

[justroyal]

surprised they didn’t go for willphil..

Which must means, yep.

We’ve got another shit one.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]
