Simpkin 'unlikely' to remain captain, North take 'strong' stance

North Melbourne footy boss Todd Viney reflects on Jy Simpkin's failed bid to leave the club and what comes next for the club's skipper

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

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Hearing the Simpkin trade discussion is not getting anywhere. Be prepared for him to stay.

That’s because the pies were campaigners looking for a cheap kill.

Happy enough to have him back for first day of preseason.

 

[Moti]

That’s because the pies were campaigners looking for a cheap kill.

Happy enough to have him back.

I think this is one that can go through to the end. Depends who blinks.

 

[gokangas]

That’s because the pies were campaigners looking for a cheap kill.

Happy enough to have him back.

Back? He never went anywhere.

 

[New_Roo]

That’s because the pies were campaigners looking for a cheap kill.

off to * now they have all these firsts....

 

[bennymate]

Tarryn Thomas cleared to be picked up as a DFA. Anyone going take him?

Sacked ex-Kangaroos midfielder cleared to return to AFL

Tarryn Thomas is eligible to be picked by an AFL club again

www.afl.com.au

Worth a look?

 

[chubbspeterson]

Maybe a move up the draft order is still on the cards if clubs want our picks for players?

Maybe Crom? They don’t want to give their first for Ah Chee, they could give it to us for those two second rounders?

Yeah I could see that happening. Maybe trade 25, 26, 64 and get Lions 17 and Crows F2, 48, 55?
But whether we could then get back into the early 30's for GC 29 or 36 and draft Blake Thredgold.
Potentially could use a Maley trade perhaps to upgrade 46 and 48 as well.
Whether it's worth giving up 25 & 26 to get 17 and Crows F2 would be the question.
Would give us flexibility next year to trade up ahead of F/S bids perhaps and what looks a better draft crop.
Other option is trade 25 & 26 for GC 15 and then try upgrade 46 and 64 with player/pick swaps.

 

[Themanbun]

It's not facts. Check out how many CBA's other players got on that app. Serong 0, Brayshaw 0, JHF 0, they didn't count them.

Shhhh no facts here. We are perfect and never make mistakes.

 

[trooroo4life]

Hearing the Simpkin trade discussion is not getting anywhere. Be prepared for him to stay.

He was always going to stay. No team is moronic enough to even offer half of what we were asking. Which is fine, we wanted him to stay.

 

[roos_tt29]

Tarryn Thomas cleared to be picked up as a DFA. Anyone going take him?

Sacked ex-Kangaroos midfielder cleared to return to AFL

Tarryn Thomas is eligible to be picked by an AFL club again

www.afl.com.au

Rookie listed by the Cats is my guess...and will "flourish"...

 

[DesertRoo]

This whole farce is way too long

Honestly it should go for longer, players should be traded up until the preseason games including draft night. makes much more sense to be able to trade in and out of your list once know what you're working with.

 

[The Dingrel]

Wow,,,,,my main take on that...."how's that for a reality check for Jy".....only suitor is Collingwood who don't want to pay his Salary or a first round pick. While Bard has the kitchen sink thrown at him for a very good midfielder in Merrett.

Now get back to Arden St go and start your repeat sprints up and down the wing with a single focus of being the best in the game.

Unless, Bard takes him for that pick 9!

 

[roos_tt29]

I think brady is conjuring a sam frost move...

As long as it makes sense from a list spots point of view, could do worse as a DFA.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Back? He never went anywhere.

I meant back for North’s preseason.

 

[Elroo]

That’s because the pies were campaigners looking for a cheap kill.

Happy enough to have him back for first day of preseason.

He can hand over the Captaincy to a more worthy player like Larkey.

Take future round 2 and be happy, North

It is Ed’s nepotistic son. Cheap shots run in the family.

 

[showusyacunningt]

Still might get it

I'd be willing to move him for unders if we have to, the toothpaste's out of the tube. We need all shoulders to the wheel

 

[Flawed Genius]

Jy coming back with tail between his legs will be interesting

"The media reporting was all a bit overblown, I love this club and I'm committed until 2029" etc etc

 

[Waynesworld]

What about a 3 way trade with the Bombers and Hawks.

Simpkin to the Bombers
Merrett to the Hawks for their Pick#9
Hawks 2026 F1st and Hustwaite to the Roos.

Bombers end up with Simpkin and Hawks Pick#9
Hawks end up with Merrett
North end up with Hawks 2026 F1st and Hustwaite..

With some later trades thrown around if needed.

So, you're saying that Hawthorn trade 2 first rounders and Hustwaite for Merrett?

Don't think they'd be in any way agreeing to that trade!

Edit; Actually, I stand corrected - it looks like they've offered even more!!! Talk about overpaying...

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Do we get a compo pick if Thomas is picked up as a free agent?

 

[North1411]

Do we get a compo pick if Thomas is picked up as a free agent?

We're not Collingwood or Geelong where they would change the rules for that. We delsited him 2 years ago so nothing our way

 

[speedy]

Learn how to ****ing kick Jy.
