Another rule tweak coming in for the academies. If you finish in the top 4 you can only make 1 academy selection in the top 20.
Does this apply for the AFL Giants?

Of course I'd love if he stayed and showed loyalty to the Pies, but I'd put Sidebottom in the conversation for a swap with Lever. We get a gun KPD for a long time in excess of one of several midfielders, that I feel we wouldn't be too worse off without, and would allow an Aish or a Phillips to really flourish. The Crows get a classy, goal kicking, big game midfielder to aid their premiership chase whilst maintaining a top line key defensive duo (Talia-Hartigan).
Sidebottom? What an interesting conversation starter?
Interestingly if anyone listens to Dermie, he is mad about Steele, just loves him.
Sidebottom is an interesting player, an absolute elite runner.
Up and down, up and down.
Plays really well in finals, big games on recollection.
Is he Treloar elite overall? Not for me, but he's what I'd classify A-
Or really excellent especially because of his running and positioning.

His break away spend in close makes him special. What he delivered in the last 6-8 round last season makes him a A grader once he gets a little more experience. Last season was interrupted which means he didn't have the capacity to play at a consistent level until season end. This year he has a full pre-season and will show the football world why we were so keen to have him in black and white.

Seems to have improved his goal kicking a bit too. One of the criticism of last year was that he didn't hurt the opposition enough.

I thought he was solid enough in that area especially towards the back end of the season. I would count goals assists as just as important as scoring goals.

Starting to wonder what we would have to give up for Josh Schache. Doesn't seem in any hurry to sign...

Wasn't he pretty keen to get to Brisbane? I know they suck, I doubt they would let him go.

He did want to go there, which makes his reluctance to sign all the more surprising. Certainly, at least some on the Brisbane board have already declared him gone.

I hope we are throwing everything at him. He would be an amazing pickup.
