Absolutely cracking move by the club to get rid of Stengle and then he heads to Geelong and is banging goals in for them.
It's just a quintessential over the top reactionary move by the club. Lot of posters on here me included, said it would come back to bite us.

Geez, I’d love to have a guy like Dylan Moore in the Rowe/Murphy role
We'll be able to watch first hand next week
That was paid a free kick against Neale. Brisbane received one later on that was just as soft.

Pick 67, forget Rowe/Murphy, we used pick 16 the following year on a guy playing a similar role who is no way near as good
You seem to forget he already had a strike from the club with his DUI infringement and this was his 2nd offense within 12 months period so was given a warning by the club and decided to do it again, if you were an employer and this happened to one of your employee wouldn't you sack them? Had he didn't have the first strike, he probably would have had a few games suspensions like what was handed to B.Crouch by the AFL and given his first warning by the club.
The back story is that Adelaide were happy to keep Stengle for that third year of his contract on the proviso that he play SANFL for the year. The club would then look at offering another contract if behavioural standards were met. He wasn’t interested per se as he thought he should be playing AFL and both parties negotiated a settlement.
In other words Adelaide wanted to keep him but wanted their requirements met.

That's embarrassing, not even a free in Auskick. If that ump doesn't get dropped and that gets condoned by the AFL, I am done.
If it's not impacting performance, no.
An agreement that the player should do rehab throughout the year and if that was adhered to - play AFL would have been far less extreme.
Trust? You will be keeping an eye on him all the time after the 2nd infringement.

AFL will confirm it was the correct decision and will send a video to all 18 clubs of other similar incidences which weren't paid over the weekend, and let them know they are all on notice.
Dusty Martin moving to a non-Vic club makes a lot of sense
He gets a break away from Vic media (though will still attract attention), the new club gets instant firepower - imagine GWS with Dusty and Clarko
- and Richmond would get significant trade/draft capital back
Imagine having that kind of asset to trade and he’s willing to go

Has any player ever done that before?
I don't think this is true. My memory tells me there were only a few of us that rated Stengle in the first place and not too many cared if he got the boot after that incident.
Maybe the realisation of it being his 3rd club and an SANFL season made him think he better be more professional at Geelong?
He wasn't banging the door down for selection here.
I am happy for him. Won't waste his talent. But it took us delisting him to get there.
