Has it actually been confirmed that Ashcroft will nominate us under father son?

Just thinking that if / when Lachie leaves that pick (our 2022 first rounder) may be a lot better than what it was looking like being a week ago lol. And if Ashcroft has a change of heart, then we may need that pick next year, especially if it turns out to be a top 10 pick (Obviously again, I hope the pick is 18).
 
Another phantom drafter posted their 2022 draft rankings recently and had Ashcroft as one of 2 elite talents in that draft, it would be a disaster if he decided to go in the open draft pool.
 
For those interested in a short term ruck option I think we could do worse than Vardy. Just delisted by WC so would not cost us anything.
Does he have a family?

I guess if Lachie does go, and we only bring in 3 or 4 draftees, we have a bit more than the minimum AFL salary to offer a short term back up.

My point being, an older player, possibly with a family, may not be so keen to move across country for one season, if it’s just a break even financial move.

When they've been delisted it's a simple case of asking the question, and getting an answer. We don't even need to speculate about trade deals.

Reports said he retired to take a work opportunity in country Victoria.

What is minimum AFL salary? 250k pre tax?

More likely half that.

Thanks to Covid, the average salary has dropped to ~$260k. First and second year players are on $105k.

Rookie salaries are counted outside the cap, so don’t form part of the average figure.
 
Hi guys, sorry for invading (again). But Jarrod Cameron just posted this on his IG.

Could imply he'll be seeking a trade this off-season. Maybe to your club to play with his brother?

Eagles out/Lions in- Jarrod Cameron, pick 10, 2022 2nd rounder.

Eagles in/Lions out- Lachie Neale.

Seriously I don't think we need another non tall forward.

Poor Lachie getting palmed off to wherever we need a deal.

Don't suppose he's a 6'2" elite kick, hard running, big body, evasive, explosive acceleration, massive tank, run all day, defensive monster, hard tackling , creative goal assist, amazing one touch hands midfielder is he?

Might have a spot for him if so.
 
Oh man, this off-season is so hectic already. We are like everyone's home.

Nothing can happen without involving us, no pressure Daly !
 
I think Cockatoo will turn out a huge positive. The guy was virtually crippled when he came to us and the game time he got this year will be invaluable. With a full pre-season he could be an X factor next year.
Daniher also a huge positive. The media hype around his less than spectacular finals performances really ignores where he has come from in terms of his body. Agree with mpal6 on him.
None of the departures would have made us a measurably better side this year. Walker would have been handy in the semi but would have struggled to get a game otherwise. Happy for him that he has settled at North and just been given a 1 year extension.
Pleaseeeeeeeeee........... not the X factor again

Come on lets be honest, we all secretly love the intrigue, soap operaness and suspense of this time of year and it is fun to be back involved when we thought we wouldn't be originally.
No.
