    News AFL overhauls Academy and FS bid matching, discussing draft lockout

    We did to a point about Geelong it’s just no one joined in. The flawed system became more and more clear and the reigning premiers getting richer and richer year on year became impossible to ignore. It got raised when Darcy and Daicos got drafted too.

    Injury Max King's knee

    We can still have a strong 2's either way. Personally i dont care about the scoreboard in the VFL but im sure the players do and if Max needing restricted minutes (which he will) impacts our VFL side enough to alter the result imagine what itll do to the AFL side. Its also worth noting that...

    Injury Max King's knee

    Nothing can properly simulate match loading and effort other than matches. Bringing him straight back would mean we handicap rotations because he would need to be managed minutes (as a key forward no less) and no exposure to game loads. We have a stand alone VFL side now where we could roll...

    News AFL overhauls Academy and FS bid matching, discussing draft lockout

    Fair enough, alot of your posting does still look alot like "how can we get top end kids for cents on the dollar" but perhaps im just so conditioned to Brisbane posters being dicks i lump you all in. Acknowledging you say its not reasonable and we just disagree on the mechanism, fair call. The...

    Well i suspect thats probably part of the concern of the complainants too. Probably alot easier to say "we think he said F but maybe it was M" than risk that outcome.

    Id assume if they made the complaint the assumption is that their complaint is the evidence and they wouldnt be required to appear. Its pretty rare at VFL level for this stuff to even go to a tribunal let alone require witness testimony. The Frankston VFL guys likely have very little club...

    In reality his only chance at any saving grace here is if the oppo players recant or at least say they couldnt hear him properly so may be wrong in what they thought they heard. Bang on though, no good outcome especially with the history

    It feels like you make more effort to miss the point of posts also we got two FAs as well, which we could manage because we managed the cap so big old swing and a miss there.

    News AFL overhauls Academy and FS bid matching, discussing draft lockout

    Its interesting to me that you look at GC and say the system was flawed to allow them to get their academy kids and Trac but you dont acknowledge yourselves doing the same thing with Annabelle and Draper and Allen (noting you also did it off b2b flags and the Ashcrofts and Fletcher as well). Id...

    News AFL overhauls Academy and FS bid matching, discussing draft lockout

    Didn’t Richmond do it in a draft widely considered pretty flat at the top end? In any event showing how other clubs have exploited the flaws in the system while enabling academy and FS picks to keep going to top end clubs doesn’t strike me as being sustainable. North had a stack of high...

    Cool… not sure what relevance this has to my post but then again the other one had none either. Weird joint sometimes.

    News AFL overhauls Academy and FS bid matching, discussing draft lockout

    Mate we nearly folded in the mid 90s, yeh weve been in worse. Nobody is shutting down the academies, youre just being asked to cough up some decent collateral to get the best kids that come out of it. Which every other club already has to do. Every club risks losing players when theyre shit...
