And I thought he had another couple of good years of AFL footy ahead of him.

“We were keen to bolster our ruck stocks following the retirement of Dawson Simpson and we believe Sam has plenty of good football left in him. " - Jason McCartney

Worth the punt by him IMO, didn’t work out (why Mumford was being played ahead of him was just staggering), at the same time vindicates the AFC’s decision at the end of 2019 as ROB’s clearly proven this year he was ready for the #1 ruck role. All the best in retirement Sauce!

If GWS had a decent coach he would have been playing finals in 2020. Definitely worth the roll of the dice, given Mummy is cooked.

7 games for GWS. Was it worth moving Sam?

Could have retired a Crow

Yes.

Why?

Played at two Clubs before GWS.

Probably would have got around $250k for the move for just 12 months.

He is probably glad he did do it, especially in the current economic plight of the world. Its not like Sauce has got a career gig in the media when he is finished.

Well, GWS signed him for 2 years didn't they and GWS just played in the Grand Final the previous year so it was worth it for Jacobs, who would have thought this asterisk season would have happened and the AFL would have shaft GWS fixture so much compared to Sydney's.

Sauce would have got a decent payout by retiring now too.

Likely had some clause in this contract that had to be meet for this year which he didn't achieve so doubtful he had a payout for next year, hence retired.

Ben Brown being shopped around (Seriously don't want him) but what sort of trade value does he hold?

 

[hey shorty]

Played his last game against us, and ROB showed him why he didn't deserve another year with us.

Still, he was a good servant for us for a long time before tarnishing his name a bit last season

 

[Rabman]

Just think this time last year Ben Brown was kicking 10 goals in a game against Port, now hes been offered up for trade.

Well not much anymore you’d imagine, IMO North have done their very best to devalue both Brown and Polec!

Not trying to spoil the fun. But if Brad is near band 1, it's only going to be line ball. The backlash of getting lucky with GWS' shitness and band 1 being pick 2 makes me think anything not a clear band 1 offer will end up band 2. It's such a politicised organisation that's sh*t scared of negative Victorian press.

Yea I don't see, Brad in the top 5%, even with his additional 10 pionts due to Age

Essendon already playing like they have one eye on the sip-n-dip bool bar

I could see Brown going to the Cats.

That would mean the delisting and end of Jenkins.

Add that to Crouch and Daniher (as reported by the media), doesn’t a salary cap exist at the Cattery!

“He could be in my opinion the best off-season acquisition in the competition”.

David King on Sauce.

Well, the "David King on [the] sauce" part is right.

Starts the season at 28, coming off a horrible year but has been good in the past.

I think a late first round pick, 15-20

Geelong will make a play for him given they have a few mid to late 1st rounders which will mean Jenkins might have only played 1 game for Geelong.

Petracca just drops it after being tackled for a few seconds, all good fellas play on!

 

[GROTTO]

Goodwin v Rutten in the coaches box. Tense finish between Dees v Dons.

 

[Scorpus]

Commentators absolutely devastated when Melbourne iced the game

 

[GROTTO]

Essendon are really that bad, its just that Melbourne is worse.

I would love to get their 1st rounders in 2021.

Blues in front!

This is the one time I'll accept Gibbs having a "Baggers" post
