I thought you might've meant Luke Davis

I think I mashed the two up in my head.

 

[Wangawuti]

What about Michael Symons.

edit - Can't believe he played over 100 games.

Best kicking style ive seen bar Dylan Clarke!

Early preseason start for Alex. I was watching him at my local oval today running 200s and 100 sprints (about 10 of each).

That's good to see. Clearly willing to do the work required to be an AFL footballer

 

[Wahooti Fandango]

No love for Simon Eastaugh?

I swear I read the same thing about Francis at the start of last preseason.

Hm. Seems as though he'll get another year. Although if it's at the expense of Hind or Bewley I'll be disappointed.

They have meetings and stuff this week and apparently the coaches are preparing off-season programs for them (not sure if that's all of them or just specific guys). If anyone was going to have an off-season program you would assume someone with an injury history like Morgan's would be first on the list. Fighting for a spot even moreso. Not sure if it's done every year, but I think at the end of 2015 the guys that were fighting for a spot would do extra work during the off-season and then they'd decide who would get a list spot based on that? Next week Worsfold starts with the recruiting stuff.

On the basis of somebody seeing him run laps?

Just a general vibe I'm getting from that and a few other thing. It's also quite possible that I'm way off the mark again.

Not good signs for another contract after this...

Was a joke. Glad it was a hit.

The fact that Richard Ings retweeted it made me think for sure you thought it was our Alex Morgan!

 

[JuniorWatch]

Adam Saad?
Alex Sad.

On his way to North, or so it would seem.

It's a real meh if he goes. He has a little up side but I doubt it will come back to bite us at all. Take a fly late in the draft on someone like Adam Sambono

 

[Snake Charmer]

Or Hind from our vfl team who looks decent

 

[Zach Package]

North must be offering him 2 years

how would he get there? have to be a DFA pick up as FA and trade periods are done

DFA. But if we have offered a contract he will have to enter the draft. We might be happy to just let him walk.

 

[Rack Watts]

Sucks, would have liked even a fourth for him.

 

[yodellinhank]

Meh. Poor man's Dalgleish.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

I can see North's strategy now...pretend to go for Kelly and Dusty whilst the real target was Morgan! Cunning.
