Well it wasn't from the public, media or players
I'd understood any club could make a trade with anyone else, but if it's only between existing clubs that's great news for us.
Sabrina Frederick (no longer Frederick-Traub) has gone to Richmond. If she has gone as a Tier 1, they can’t offer Conti a Tier 1 contract as each club can only have two Tier 1 players.
Hopefully good news for us.

She did say that. It's like feeding your kids a crap sandwich and telling them it's Nutella
I don't get it. How could someone so bad at their job continue to feed us such garbage and get away with it. It helps when you constantly block people on social media and ignore those who actually care, you know, the players, coaches, clubs and fans
Eventually she will fall on her sword. She is so ill equipped to do her job competently I am almost convinced it was by design
She has to go, no one wanted conferences (players, clubs, media, supporters). It's the blatant lies that are worrying, she has turned into the AFL's Trump.
There will be a great 'off field' announcement this week
Any more hints?
Hopefully it's a new coach.

I mean we all knew they were staying but her argument is that it meant that more teams were in the running later in the year. You know, because two conference B teams were just soooooooooooooooooo good and deserved to make finals despite having worse percentage and wins then most of conference A.
If Richmond make Sabrina F a tier 1 player, they’re wasting their money. Watched her closely when we played them at VUWO. Key forward, struggled to mark against smaller/lighter opponents, useless in general play, kicking ordinary. Massively over-rated, Brennan has her covered for good games over past 3 seasons.
Mo Hope at least has decent skills, would be good as a 3rd forward alongside Izzy and another tall, or smaller leading forward from the square with Izzy at CHF.

Really hoping we sign Hope, seems like a win-win to me, won't cost us and has big potential.
Agree, only really good game she ever played was the rep game in our colours!

I don't think she's going anywhere. Better get used to her.
She was hired to be the AFL's public face for AFLW. She's a woman, famous and admired for being a champion in her long swimming career, an experienced and confident broadcast personality and someone who looks to have a bit of hardness about her if the going happens to get tough (not that I've paid her all that much attention this season, so correct me if you think that's wrong).
That doesn't mean you have to agree with her, or even like her, but unless she makes a terrible and unexpected gaffe I think she'll be in the job for a while.
The conference idea itself is not at fault. It's the implementation of it, and I doubt she'd have been instrumental in it ... at least initially. The AFLW needs to be longer (conference system or not) and if they're going to have a conference system they need to balance it far more thoughtfully than they did this year. Personally I think they have bigger issues to deal with - like the supporters of foundation clubs feeling they've been sold out - and the conference system is just a secondary issue.
Just my two bob's worth. I know many will disagree.
If she requests a trade the Dogs should her to get stuffed. You don't trade an All Australian, B&F winner and a player who was BOG in the GF.
Heard a rumour tonight (and that’s all it is) that she’s requested a trade to an existing Vic club, not expansion.
Carlton? Probably same one I heard. Don’t give much credence to it personally.

Conti sounds like she’s already out the door which is a far greater loss than KB. Should have quickly made her Tier 1 with Blackburn.

The AFL in general, not just Livingstone is very Trump like.
Would also like to add Mo Hope and Sarah Perkins. Would get our forward line more dangerous.

Pardon my ignorance, but what was the story with Sarah Perkins this year ? Injured ?
If we lose Conti, or the conferences aren't scrapped, I'm done. I'll be done going to games, done watching games, done talking about AFLW stuff online. Sorry but it's just one joke after another with this league.
That's why I said it's only a rumour, bloke. And you know it's the same one you heard, as I was the one that told you!
