So mcglynn is gilbee replacement who has been promoted?

 

[Highlander35]

Ablett has 2 years left on his contract next year, and Geelong have sweet **** all to bargain with.

That's gonna be a very interesting time had by all.

I hope we don't make a play for GAJ.

 

[Flandersss]

I hope we don't make a play for GAJ.

As good as Gaz is, he's cooked IMO.

Supercoach can GAGF Keg on legs

 

[St Pauls]

Gone next year imo.

Pity the cats don't have a first rounder..... Actually they need to trade one in too .....

 

[cartel]

Do cats have any draft picks left they can trade? Then and Hawks have gone a high risk strategy not giving themselves the opportunity to continually renew the list with younger players.

Have to say, hope they both career down the ladder

No way the Cats can afford him next year.
( Except of course if the AFL want it to happen)

 

[STK2020]

GC would be better off without him .
Gone to Geelong for pick 88

 

[Saintos The ITK]

I hope we don't make a play for GAJ.

Rookie list maybe.

 

[Persevering Saint]

Rookie list maybe.

Chaplain?

He's still under contract. The Suns will make him retire a Sun, I have absolutely no doubt in my mind. It's pivotal to their marketing/image to have the best player in the modern era retire a 'favourite son' at Gold Coast.

His contract finishes up at the end of 2018, and no one's gonna sign a soon-to-be 35 year old GAJ to a contract in 2019, when he's already showing signs of slowing down at 32.

You weren't saying that at round 10....

Carlton would. A 55-yr old GAJ is still better than most of their list.

Gaz could play to 37-38 IMO, at least in the forward line. He will overcome the shoulder issues and remind people how much of a freak he is next year.

Most dominant player I have seen since Lockett, would be pumped to have him at the Saints for a couple of years even if he is 35.

Gaj 90% fwd 10% mid, he'd kick 45+

There goes the 2018 first rounder , wonder what the punishment will be.

 

[dct66]

I wonder when the AFL will announce the result of their negotiations with ASADA regarding Whitfield, Allan & Lambert. I reckon Cup Eve for the 'Look Over there, a horse race and you've got the day off' factor.

 

[austinnn]

Good to see X-man get a asst coach gig at the Tigers. That's what's known as a trial by fire! He should be good for the Aboriginal players at the Tigers, although I'm not sure how many there are now.

I notice also that Mini Mac has been promoted to Tigers stoppages coach, after the development dept for some time.

Aside from Harves, Lenny, Clarke and McQualter, how many other ex-Saints are involved in senior AFL coaching?

PS: are Aussie Jones and Jason Heatley still involved in coaching at all?

Hamill and Frawley. Don't give Richo all the credit.

Anyone hit up the Flemo races today?
