    Free Agency George Hewett [joins Carlton as a restricted free agent]

    Did you sign up Hewett or Tony Mockbel?

    Experiences Playing Local Footy Against Ex AFL

    Josh was a bit younger than us and I think Matt used to play down a grade because he had a really late birthday even though he was technically our age? I think he might have played a few games, possibly in the other team - I don't recall him playing for us. We did have Simon Black cameo on the...

    Review 2021 Deadline Day General Discussion – Trade paperwork must be lodged by 7.30pm

    I was a bit shocked he had a job in an AFL team to be honest - some of his observations were deadset baffling in their stupid.

    Experiences Playing Local Footy Against Ex AFL

    I played my juniors at Bullcreek-Leeming with Ben Cousins on my team and the other Bullcreek-Leeming team had a player named Matt Clucas who ended up playing a few games for Fremantle. He used to carve us up and given we were pretty well matched physically I was assigned a tagging job on him...

    Recommitted Ben King [contracted and staying at Gold Coast]

    If he comes out of contract and is available for trade - what team is not going to be interested in a 6'8 athletic key position player who's kicked 85 goals in the first 50 games of his career in a somewhat struggling team?

    Club Focus Collingwood 2020 - Henry, Macrae, McInnes, Poulter, McMahon, McCreery

    There's no reason why it can't happen, but why would the team x "gift" team y a draft upgrade when the sole reason to move the player is to dump salary from their mismanaged TPP?

    Traded Adam Treloar [traded with #26, #33 and #42 to Bulldogs for #14 and 2021 R2]

    You're paying $300,000 a year for it for the next 5 years. Still a winner?

    What do you expect him to say - I was ordered from above to jettison a bunch of required players because someone ****ed up with the calculator? Poor bugger had to "tow the party line" so to speak.....

    How diabolical were the Pies finances that they are still forging ahead with Treloar trade to shed like +$1m in player payments. Who's head is going to roll?

    Traded Jack Higgins [Traded to St Kilda with #21 and a Future 4th Round Pick for #17 and a Future 2nd Round Pick]

    It seems your sarcasm detector is awry as well genius, but please explain to me why you are comparing the trade of Higgins between St Kilda and Richmond to the trade of Higgins between Geelong and North when they are 2 independent trades between completely different teams with absolutely zero...

    Traded Jack Higgins [Traded to St Kilda with #21 and a Future 4th Round Pick for #17 and a Future 2nd Round Pick]

    If you want to keep using pointless comparisons, Butler went for pick 56 and right here and now he is better than Higgins.

    Traded Jack Higgins [Traded to St Kilda with #21 and a Future 4th Round Pick for #17 and a Future 2nd Round Pick]

    Well unless we soften our stance on not using pick 17, then possibly a future 1st - but we are all just spit-balling in reality.

    Traded Jack Higgins [Traded to St Kilda with #21 and a Future 4th Round Pick for #17 and a Future 2nd Round Pick]

    Pick 8 for Saad is irrelevant - Carlton didn't have anything else to use really. Not really sure how this deal will be resolved though. Could swing 3 or 4 different ways, or not happen at all........but the mail this morning was that the deal is done in principle.

    Analysis Worst AFL contracts.

    If the reports are to be believed, Tom McDonald on $700,000+ a year is mind bottling. Essentially one good season in front of goals.

    Recommitted Josh Dunkley [OOC 2022, requested a trade to Essendon, didn't get there]

    Agreed, I think you showed this year your midfield mix is pretty potent with him getting less time in the middle. I think you are more in need of a small forward and an experienced big body ruckman to chop out for English and rest forward (ala Ryder / Marshall combo we had the luxury of this...

    Free Agency Brad Crouch [joins St Kilda as a RFA for pick 23]

    Adelaide as a club have lost a fair bit of credibility over this in at least the immediate future. You can't huff and puff then not blow the house down when the time comes if you've told everyone that's what you're going to do. Will be interesting now if they issue a statement to their members...

    Free Agency Brad Crouch [joins St Kilda as a RFA for pick 23]

    They are taking a loooooooong time to match given the resolute position of pick 2 or nothing. I assume they are shopping him around to see if they can get something better, but with the timeline that it's taking they might not be fielding many offers? About an hour left to plant their flag.......

    Free Agency Brad Crouch [joins St Kilda as a RFA for pick 23]

    It appears that an injured affected season and a bag of Columbian have put paid to his long term plan to "cash in" so to speak. Spannered himself and Adelaide really.

    Delisted Paddy McCartin [DFA, delisted in 2019]

    I hope the people around him are guiding him through this decision - like a punch drunk boxer, often you need to be told your time is up because as a competitor you have tunnel vision. If he is medically fit and cleared, I hope he makes a fist of it. But if there is any cause for concern with...

    Free Agency Brad Crouch [joins St Kilda as a RFA for pick 23]

    This all hinges on Adelaide matching the bid - they talked a big game and if that was their intention, why haven't they already done it? It's starting to feel like they will tuck their tail and accept pick 23 or whatever it ends up being. It will be interesting to see who blinks first....

    Traded Adam Treloar [traded with #26, #33 and #42 to Bulldogs for #14 and 2021 R2]

    The guy pushed back pay rises to help the club out to bring in players, and now its cough up time they wanna shovel him out the door. Regardless of if Bucks rang him and said the senior players want you out or not - the whole thing is a fair circus and it's been clearly created by the club...

    Traded Tom Hickey [traded with #34 & #60 to Sydney for #58, #62, 2021 R2 (Port), R3]

    How did Hickey suddenly become more valuable when you traded pick 39 and a future 4th 2 years ago to get him and he's 3rd / 4th in line to get a game? Played 3 games in 2020, is 30 years old - you'd surely be happy for a set of steak knives at this point? He's not the hot commodity you think he is.

    Delisted Matthew Suckling [delisted]

    How old is he - like 32 / 33? Missed a lot of footy this year and killed my Supercoach draft team haha. Probably down the priority list at the moment to sign him on.

    Rendell is already got my tick of approval - callers asks if they should chase Atley and is he gettable from North....Rendell say nah, he's quick but butchers the ball and can't kick for someone in the system this long. LOL, no holds barred.
