Player Watch Sam Murray - Delisted 17/9

[left at home]

So he is not officially delisted yet.

So he is not officially delisted yet.

Not 100% sure, but I think AFL contracts expire at the end of October.
So would still appear on our list for now.

So he is not officially delisted yet.

If no contract offer on table by 31 Oct (1st list lodgement deadline), then he automatically becomes a DFA from 1st November.
He can then sign with the club of his choosing.

Hopefully we can secure a Williams style trade for him before then. They're nothing picks but you just never know.

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Good luck to him, if Collingwood isn’t prepared to give him a second chance it will be interesting to watch if he can salvage his career elsewhere.

 

[The Sherriff]

He's been training pretty hard with one of my trainers. So he's def. not giving up the dream.

 

[unplugged]

Seeing as though it was Rhyce Shaw who allegedly pushed Murray's case to us, it only seems right that North takes him off our books.

 

[jackcass]

Hopefully we can secure a Murray style trade for him before then.

Anything before pick 65 (mid 4th round) then and we're actually in front in terms of points.

I doubt there would be a trade would there? More likely he earns a spot after busting his arse actually training with a team first I would have thought

Good luck to him however it pans out

That's the more likely outcome, gets taken as a DFA.

How many trainers do you have?

Of being a professional bong smoker?

You've given me a glimmer of hope that we might be that club. A very dull almost invisible glimmer, but a glimmer nonetheless.

Or gets taken by the DEA.

He's going to the US?

 

[jackcass]

At least 1 for each foot I'd have thought.

 

[sr36]

He's going to the US?

I'm convinced he's Jesse Pinkman from Breaking Bad.

Under new rules Murray is actually an unrestricted free agent so if he goes somewhere we'd really be looking at compensation rather than a trade right now.

What we've said is that we won't offer him an extension but he remains contracted till 31 October so we can trade him till then as I understand it.

Jamie Elliott is also contracted to us until the end of the month - but he can leave as an unrestricted free agent. As can Murray. As can Broomhead.

Those glimmers are the worst and now I have it as well.

Yep, he can walk as a FA if he likes, same with Elliott, Broomy or Dunn if they don't get extensions. But that doesn't exclude the potential for a trade. Depends on what the destination club already has happening on the FA front and potential implications on compo they might receive.

That might be a bit of a stretch.
We haven't offered him a contract, unlike Billy.

That previous post is right, if he ends up somewhere, we would get compensation. He is a UFA courtesy of being de-listed last year and coming to the end of his current contract this year. Wouldn't be expecting too much in the way of compo though!
