    Its one game, but he appeared out of his depth yesterday.

    Review Match Simulation Pies v GWS Friday 20 Feb 11.00am Bundoora

    Got to see a bit of this, what really stood out was ball use. They controlled the ball and hit targets easily. We did not. Skill level of the younger players on our list, at this stage, is nowhere close to AFL standard. Steele looks to have the skills, Cochran looks pretty smooth too, but the...

    Great build and athleticism, brain has not caught up to his legs yet. Hopefully it will at some point, he does turn the ball over by foot a lot. I'm not sure i have seen his pace run down or pressure many people? McReery style? That's a question mark too.

    Hate the story about changing Will's. I mean, yeah, sure have it there for people who enquire, but proactively sending it out to supporters over 50 is disgraceful in my opinion.

    He does have to stay in the free agency model. Trade is completely different. The reason I say he has to stay, is some people confusingly believe restricted free agents get a choice of staying or going if their club matches. They dont get a choice. They have to stay.

    Sigh. Once they match, it becomes a trade situation. Has nothing to do with free agency.

    Yeah this is it, and what I have been pointing out for a fair while last few pages.

    The ignorance is mind boggling. If it's completed by trade, how is it free agency?

    I know you know your stuff, but this is like talking to kids. The point is, Butters won't just come cheaply, he will come for x2 first rounders, at least. He is a trade target, not a free agent target. Losing x2 first round picks like we have done so often lately may happen again, it may, but...

    First of all, it's 2026, end of next year's season that people will come for him. Second of all, my initial point was he would cost x2 first rounders plus something else, that is super expensive when we are low on first round pick resources. Would I take Butters, absolutely, is it realistic to...

    You dont understand the free agency model, do you? He doesnt get a choice if they match. That's the difference between restricted and unrestricted. If Port matches he has to stay.

    No he can't he will be restricted. Port can match.

    Zac Butters costs x2 first round draft picks and probably something else though. Oliver will not. There is no way Butters leaves as a free agent, Port will match

    Its a smidgen above the average wage. Oliver 2-3 years ago was a top 10 mid in the game. Id ask the question, is pick 40, 60 and 80 or Clayton Oliver more likely to lift us back to a premiership?
