Walsh and 'neat disposal' are borderline oxymoronic...

Watching the Talor Byrne edits.... what a completely non-Carlton type pick this is. He's just a natural footballer with an un-AFL physique. Yet we picked him anyhow. Something has changed this year for sure. I will assume GW influence but who knows but one thing is for sure he would never have gotten a lookin at Carlton at any time in the past 5-10 years.
For the record - Byrne one of my favourite draftees in the past 5 years. We normally try to draft greyhounds. This guy is a pitbull.

He reminds me so much of the Durdin pick who I actually loved but for some reason it never fully clicked for him after a promising start. Hopefully it does for Talor

Talk up his value for the compensation pick when he goes FA?

We'll be compensated well if he leaves. Probably have a war chest that can deliver Cody and Butters.

If we pick up Lij as a rookie, and Walsh is made captain next year, I don't think he's leaving.
Question is, will Butters want to come if Walsh leaves? Walshy leaving would probably come off the back of a poor season.

I think his disposal is only a problem when he tries to do too much, which is the bigger problem with his game in general.
My biggest hope is he is injury free for the next 12 months as I’ve always said we look our best when he is playing well.
I'm with ya on that. He looks like the stereotypical Collingwood recruit, complete with the sleeve tattoos within a couple of years.
If his back goes again, all bets are off...
We need someone out there who is just a touch late and 'clumsy' with the spoil. Missed it from Newman this year as well.
I mean Harry loves hurting people in the contest - only problem is it's usually one of ours (or himself).

If his back goes again, it might be early retirement rather than moving to another club.
unless we are trading him, our FA compo pick will be 19, the pick after our natural pick
We know cats very much into him but the elephant in the room is Tassie.

I know we can't tell much from outside the club but everything I hear about Walsh gives me the impression he's staying. If not I think we'd be able to easily match Cats offers anyway so it won't go to compo.

tbh, I'd rather get a compo pick next year than the "three first round picks" they'd offer up...

Luckily for us the Cats don't include their off the books payments in a FA bid so we'd have no issues matching the bid and politely telling them to **** off with their shite offer just as we did this year with Curnow.

Great another selfish player is going to derail our season. The media will make sure of it. He will be talked about and asked about. Team mates will be asked. Just great...... For all Walshs tough talk about leadership and no bull. He needs to put his talk into actions and make a statement.
How about we show some patience. I for one don’t want to give Walshy a massive contract for Christmas to have him go down with the same complaint and miss half of the season. It works a little both ways. There is plenty of water to go under the bridge.
The only way any urgency is added is if, indeed, they are looking at a captaincy change over. I think Walsh is a loyal sort of young man. Not sure how much credence to the “if Voss stays, Walsh goes” rhetoric, it would seem to be put to bed. He forecast when drafted that he wanted to be a one club player. Surely mechanisations would be afoot for “hidden” benefits should he commit long term to mitigate salary cap impact. (If it is good for the Geelong goose, it is good for the gander)

I think walshy will ultimately make his decision based on how we perform on the field and as a club this season.
If we happen to have a season like this year. IMO, I think he would be leaning towards leaving.
But, if we show improvement across the board and push or make finals, with a more positive game style ect, then I think he’ll stay.

Are players not entitled to take their time when they're out of contract now?
