Yeah you would think, he was questioned from Ditts about it, and sort of played a straight bat. If there were any announcement you'd expect it before Tthursday night you'd imagine.
Didnt ditts say danger was signing and that mardi had a career job lined up.... take anything from ditts with an ocean of salt.

A name for the think tank if Brouch goes - Trent Dumont. What's his contract status?
He might be coming back to SA for a while regardless.

"LAST week he was kicking a goal against Sydney — on Wednesday, North Melbourne footballer Trent Dumont learned he would stand trial in Adelaide next January over an alleged taxi robbery."

Robbery carries a maximum sentence of 15 years (not that he'll get that).

Geez, Hinkley could be in a bit of trouble too: section S62A states that you can be fined $10k or imprisoned for up to two years for the offence of "create false belief."

isn't he on the slow side .....Matt Crouch levels of speed?
We do need another big time contested ball winner, and can cover a lack of leg speed.

After-all, it's Thommo's spot that the player we attract will be fighting for.

I wouldn't worry about the prison sentence, will likely get no jail time.

He's probably in between Sloane and Mrouch, but if he takes Thommo's spot that doesn't matter.

Feeling very optimistic even if we lose both JJ and Crouch. I think they will bring us 2 x 1st round picks at a minimum, probably 1 or 2 seconds as well.

We then enter draft / trade with 3 x first rounders. Trading for a quality mid and hitting the draft with 2 firsts and a second will really set us up nicely.

If we could get, say, a pick 7 for Crouch and 3 and 21 for Jenkins and 15-odd, that'd leave us sitting pretty. We'd need to get someone like Tim O'Brien in somehow as a replacement for Jenkins, though, as I don't see us drafting a young KPF like Marshall or Battle and playing him immediately.

Draft Brodie at 3, Venables at 7 and Tim English at 21. Problem solved.

After watching him in the U18 championships ......him being a dud was a high possibility ......great mark, but zero physicality & just got so little of the ball

For all his hype ......i couldn't see anything to get excited about
Either could Brad

Delistings and retirements: Van Berlo, Jaensch, Grigg, Shaw.

Trades & Free Agency: Henderson, CEY.

Upgrades: ROB, Keath. Greenwood stays cat B, Hunter stays a rookie, as does Beech. Keath is someone I think we may look to give opportunities to, but could stay cat b if that's considered best.

I would keep Lowden for another year. Similarly, I'd keep Kelly and Dear for another look.

Thompson is a hard one. I actually lean towards retirement, and having his salary as something we focus towards someone. I think he's a bit of a crutch for us and I don't think he's there if we're truly competing for a flag.
What happens with Ramsey ?
