Key Off-Season Dates
This is a comprehensive list including dates for draft combines, list lodgements, delisted free agency windows and return to train dates. I had to collate these from three different club websites because the AFL is lazy af and doesn't have it on their website, so thought it might be helpful to share:

For a player under contract ??

You always have to pay overs to get a contrcted player out of their current club.

Therefore, your people should be asking for their #11 and offer your future third as change.

Punctuation has let him down here

He was being facetious

Nobody thinks a third round pick gets it done

Maybe, I have been watching videos of us play between 2016 and 2019, we certainly had a better forward line then. I think we were pretty low for marks inside 50 this year, need to improve our forward line to win a flag in my view.
I was hoping ( maybe naively) that hogan playing more games, Callaghan providing some additional class would be an improvement.
Chad certainly used to be a good marker on the lead. I think he might prefer the possessions as a midfielder though, time will tell.

Much prefer a trade for Gunston (experienced in finals teams tilting for top 4), but I guess if Lobb is coming in, our forward line could lack pace.
Wingard surely couldn't cost us much given his form and time left in the game.

Hawthorn board thought wingard,21 for pick 2.
They were generally quite offended when I quoted
A Geelong board suggestion of
Mitchell,5 for 7,15,28. That values Mitchell at 8 points wise.
Their board seems pretty keen on pick 2.
Wingard did get brownlow points in last 4 matches.
I thought he was good at Port Adelaide, I question if he wants to be stuck in a forward pocket for the rest of his career. That is his prerogative though.

Lol. Any trade including pick 2 will cost them portions of salary and their top pick to use on Andrew.
Pick 2 is worth its weight in gold to about 4 clubs this year who all need an elite mid. We are in the strange position of having insane midfield depth and pick 2.
Fun stuff.

As keen as I would be on wingard that trade for him is ridiculous

I have doubts he would leave - his recent insta post implies he wants to stay.

But our forward line is much better with him as a half forward in it

Haven’t been a huge fan of Wingard mostly due to a seemingly poor attitude. However if he is happy to play predominantly forward it would be an upgrade on Hill.

Well a straight swap wasn’t really what I was suggesting. We might have to kick in something extra

But Reid hasn’t played yet and we liked him last year… makes sense as a key back for us. They are stacked for key backs in

Played one game, then got glandular fever and a stress fracture. Is the most highly rate of the three players we took with 6/7/8 last season. I doubt he's going anywhere. Stacked with key backs, who are you referring to?
 
Do we all not remember this s**t and pisser playing silly buggers in the draft with us? Now we are going to extend his career? Stuff him.

These guys (Breust too) have had their chance and turned their nose up. Zero interest.
Especially as the Hawks seem to think they can trade for top picks by letting go their retirees. * that. No different to year 1 when we were offered spuds and retirees for our 1st rounders.

Hear hear. I'd like to back our kids to get the job done. I wouldn't turn my nose up at the right player that complements us and has plenty of years left in his career, but that's difficult to find.
 
I'd be interested in Wingard if he we didn't have to give up any picks of significance and weren't forced to pay his entire salary. Would also have no issues with walking away and trusting the development of our younger players to step up next year.
 
Wingard could free up Toby to play patches in the midfield which gives us a speed/burst dynamic that we're currently missing in there. Don't think we'd see him there as a full time mid but maybe as a 65% forward/35% mid would be great to see. Would need other guys be ok with taking smaller midfield roles but if everyone is willing to buy in it would give us a really flexible mid with plenty of guys running through there.
