I never wanted to lose Brad in the first place

wouldn't mind a tall or two in defence at some point before round 1. Were undersized down back often and now we're even smaller

well if butts got injured we wouldn't have anyone 195+ to go in. Hopefully fish has a he'll of a pre season
We can't - we need Seeds' senior list position for the draft. They traded for pick 46, they can't use it if Seeds is still on the senior list.
Got to be an absolute kick in the teeth for Crouch.
He thinks he’s an AFL gun mid, but absolutely no one wants him. At all. Even for free.

Or, conspiracy theory i know, the club actually wants him for next year and has not shopped him
Game has gone past him unfortunately
Nobody wanted him 12 months ago either, when he dipped his toe in the Free Agency waters - and didn't even get a nibble.
Back then it was explained away as being due to uncertainty relating to him having missed the previous 12 months due to injury. Nope... the market for glacially slow accumulators with zero hurt factor has just plain evaporated in the last few years.

It means Crouch has a pre-season to change his playing style ....or he definitely knows 2023 is his last year of AFL footy
Desperation can bring on change .....but his game appears too cemented
and his feet are cemented to the field
Not like any of us on here didnt know this, but this article is still worrying. To my mind, we should just forget these days about recruiting from Vic Metro...which basically means we lose access to a population of what, 4.5-5m people? Also, Crows aside, what would be so friggin bad about living in Sydney or on the Gold Coast? Players are hardly being moved to Horsham!

‘Fewer players to choose from’: Flight risks affecting AFL draft
A growing number of players are unwilling to be drafted to clubs outside their home states, and according to one recruiting boss, some are even outright saying that they want to avoid moving interstate in pre-draft discussions.

mccartney said on trade radio that they basically work from a different draft board. i would assume no interstate clubs is too interested in the vic metro boys anymore, as you seemingly get 2 years out of them and then off they go. dont think clubs will be too quick get geelong boys either after this ollie henry nonsenseNot like any of us on here didnt know this, but this article is still worrying.

I'd extrapolate that more to the Sandringham Dragons and Oakleigh Chargers where all the top end talent arePrivate Schoolboys, lesser of a problem especially with lads from the Calder Cannons, Eastern Ranges and the Northern Knights and somewhat with the Dandenong Stingrays. Geelong Falcons are becoming a real worry too with so many being "enticed" by the Cats.Not like any of us on here didnt know this, but this article is still worrying.

Kind of amazing how quickly the whole league has reduced the value of players like Crouch.
If nobody takes him as an unrestricted free agent, will we delist him?
I would still think he is good enough to be on AFL list.

The fact we can't sell our club to potential targets other than SA boys means we have some seriously woeful salesman out there. Players are choosing to go to a club that is about to go into a mid range rebuild over a club with established youth but need some experienced talent. if this doesn't send alarm bells through the board I don't know what does. You can't tell me our football department is satisfied with the Rankine deal because to most people, thats nothing special as he wanted home and Port never really made a play for him.

The post isn't serious, it's a piss take.
Not in talent, I meant as a sales pitch. like can you guys read the whole thing in context or are you literal pretenders.
At no stage did I question the talent or the deal. try learning to read.
