    Club Focus Western Bulldogs 2024

    Get rid of your list manager first if this what's required. Hawks should be all over Macrae, but why would you resign a guy for 5 years only to decide he is surplus, just over 12 months later. No club is trading anything of value for Lobb.

    Unrestricted Free Agent Isaac Cumming [UFA 2024]

    Well if he gets offered 5@$800k or more he would be mad not to take it. I doubt we could pay him more than $500k.

    Restricted Free Agent Andy McGrath [RFA 2024]

    Clubs having to pay minimum cap and not a great draft hand will definitely enquire I would think. If he wanted to test the market it could be the right time to cash in.

    Mid-Season Trading and AFL

    As long as the players are under contract and can't be traded against their will, the idea of the top sides cleaning out the bottom sides lists wont happen unless they come up with adequate compensation. It's more likely the contending clubs desperate to replace a tall or ruck will pay overs as...

    News AFL to overhaul the draft, discuss changes to Academy and FS bid matching

    Clubs need to be planning years ahead. Everybody could of guessed something similar at trade week last year. You should be asking why is you list management team so asleep at the wheel.

    Game Day 2022 AFL Draft - Round 1 tonight! Coverage starts 7PM AEDT - Picks from 7:25

    Hayes. Im fine with taking KPD, just not this one.

    Prediction The next four-club player

    Brayden Preuss. Not a knock on him playing wise as we haven't seen him yet but Flynn and Briggs have developed well this year. Preuss came to us because he wanted senior football and even if he has a good pre-season he will have some competition to earn a spot.

    Prediction Possible pick swaps

    The issue with 3 picks for 1 pick deals with academy clubs is the available list spots per how many draft picks you can use. The Vic clubs like Collingwood should of never have whinged about this. Trading a bunch of 2nd and 3rd rounders for a 1st was an absolute steal for the clubs smart...

    Josh mahoney is on quote at the end of trade week that they were not offered 2 first rounders for pick 3.

    Im pretty sure none of that is likely to happen.

    Prediction Possible pick swaps

    I don't think we can afford to lose 40 for the points value to match Green, it's too big of a deficit for next year. Happy to do 6 and 2020 first for 3. Lets just say a 500 point deficit next year with no first rounder and a top 4 ladder finish pretty much wipes you out of the draft unless...

    Prediction Possible pick swaps

    Keep what draft hand? First live pick would be around 40. Terrible trade for us.

    Prediction Who gets picked up as a Delisted Free Agent?

    Miss the point completely. Old mate suggested Hawks are a good match because of the 3 main factors posted above. If the suggested culture couldn't keep Garlett from going off the rails with the extra leaders around compared to now, then surely the current Hawks squad don't meet the criteria.

    Prediction Who gets picked up as a Delisted Free Agent?

    Dayle Garlett says cross out Hawthorn.

    Prediction Possible pick swaps

    In 2016 everyone said we were after McGrath. It's now well known that Taranto was the target and after the series of trades to secure that pick this year has a similar feel. The result wont be known for a while yet but the current draft team have had few misses.

    Depends who they want. If best for needs will be available then, why wouldn't they?

    That wasnt the offer. https://www.afl.com.au/news/2019-10-17/giants-still-hunting-for-topfive-pick-despite-trade-period-lockout "There have been offers made for it, but at the moment we haven't had anything that's satisfied us," Melbourne footy boss Josh Mahoney said on Wednesday. "Have we...

    Or we let another club take Green before 6 and 2 years later when he is homesick we will get him back for peanuts.

    Opinion 1st Week of Trade Week a Dud

    Professional organisations usually don't give away secrets. It's good that club staffers have finally figured out to keep their mouth shut around sensitive issues. The journos talking nothing but crap all season long are the problem. But sadly trade week is still some footy fans pinnacle.

    Opinion Moneyball players

    Not recent but Matt DeBoer for us. Slotted straight in to the playing group and bought something to the 22 that was missing and just gets better and more important for us each year.

    Accademies for non Traditional State teams

    What is the case exactly? There is bidding, they are not freebies like suggested and the thread is 5 years old not 12 months.

    Analysis When a contracted player gets traded, what's the norm regarding his contract at the new club?

    It's all part of the trade, sometimes the old club continues to pay part of it, most of the time not. The total contract value cannot be lowered, AFLPA would never allow it, the years can be extended to lower the $$$ per year though but it still has to be above the minimum wage level.
