Had a conversation at the local footy with a lad that knows Harry Perryman at GWS and even though he has signed he is apparently unhappy at being in and out if the side and is very open to joining his ex GWS teammates at Carlton if something could be facilitated.

Had dinner with my mate last night, a few tidbits for you:

- Gibbs is more than likely staying. Looking for another property to buy in Carlton and live. It would take a huge turn of events for that to change.

- Kelly is either playing for Carlton or GWS next year.
4 Melbourne clubs interested in him and who he has spoken to. Carlton, North, Essendon and Hawks.
North have offered $400K more per year than us, Essendon 200K less per year (of course that can be adjusted).
Hawks same as us but he would prefer to come to our club.
Saints are yet to speak to him, but GWS are hoping for obvious reasons they enter the market and convince him that they are a destination club also.
We are seen to him as the club with the highest ceiling and who are able to compensate GWS most.

- At this stage Hopper is leaving GWS to which Victoria club is unknown.

A few weeks old but:

New AFL standard goalposts for Princes Park (should help levi if he stays) for the AFLW season (from MarkLoGiudice himself, backed up by Stephen Trigg when I met them at an event)

New drainage for Princes Park, they'll tear the ground up, possibly lowering the entire playing surface by around 1m and install new drainage and level the ground. To be paid for by the AFL, not sure if we're getting re-seeded grass or strips of turf laid down, depends on when works are carried out and how quick the grass can grow in Spring before AFLW2018. Some possible other minor improvements around the ground too, may happen after the AFLW season depending on scope of works. Fresh paint, repairing seats/benches, new PA systems & siren etc.

Quoting a text conversation. Mates brother (Blues supporter) currently in Adelaide watching game with Brother-in-law who is high up in IGA, a 2nd tier sponsor of Crows. The mates brother apparently says as boys walking off, Gibbs is quiet and doesn't looked interested. Brother in law answered, any wonder as he is coming to Adelaide, talks are on and well advanced. Says their 1st and youngsters (more than 1) is the offer.

They drafted Galluci and Poholke last year - two mids. I'd be happy with that.
