Losing the battle to win the war is how North have ended up bottom 2 for 6 consecutive seasons.

Trainor comes in for Green and honestly I would reward Kosi for a great VFL game and leave out McIntosh.
McIntosh has two more games left.
They ain’t dropping him now when they should have half a dozen or more times this year but didn’t .
 
Yeah, it’s a shame
Just too many options down back.

Also I think we might be doing him a solid not letting him hit his trigger so he can leave uncontracted.

We've never been one to haggle over these fringe types and allows us a good reputation to play hardball like we did last year.

i resigned to him leaving months ago but do we get anything if he leaves uncontracted? seems like we shouldve hit the trigger to at least force a trade? hes not delistable

Yeah still a trade but will be peanuts either way I reckon. Not a player you hold your ground on for mine.

think we will find Blight's bags are packed and currently sitting at his front door.

Blight has played 10 afl games

A player can play up to 10 AFL games in their first three years on the rookie list and still remain a rookie. If they play 10 or more games in those three years, they typically need to be moved to the senior list or delisted and re-drafted

However rookie players can be traded…When a rookie is traded, it's usually done in conjunction with trading a primary list player or a draft pick from another club



Pretty sure I’ve got that right

No, it’s actually the complete opposite.

2024: North beat us in a late season game … we get Lalor at #1.

2023: North beat GC in final round and lose Harley Reid.

2017: they win the final round against Lions and finish 15th when a loss has them 18th and get Cam Rayner.

So North have actually made a habit of teaching their players the importance of ‘winning’ end of season games and it has cost them 3 x #1 picks.

I’m not saying we should tank and I hope we beat North (and still finish below Bombers). But winning end of season games has been a disaster for North and taught them absolutely nothing and done nada for their ‘culture’.
