Brisbane will want a late first round to mid second round pick if Martin is adamant he wants to go. I don't see us as being interested given his age and injury history. I think Martin can play... but I wouldn't recruit him if it was my decision.

This will be Stef when his teammates leave and he's stuck at Brisbane

Just like to throw my hat into the ring regarding two players mentioned today:

Jake Melksham and Dan Currie. Shocking, shocking players. I don't know who's got into Jake's ear but if Essendon have offered him a two year extension then he should take it, even if it's on substantially lower wages. If he knows something (e.g. another club has made an offer to him) then more power to him. To say I'd be disappointed if it was us would be the understatement of the century. He has zero upside, zero class and would barely make an impact at a reasonable state level.

Dan Currie. The man that took at least 7 years and two clubs to make a debut and still has less than a handful of games. A truck of ruckman. Add's nothing but a mature big body. A dinosaur the game passed long ago. Rather spend that pick/spot on a rookie ruckman.

If Kreuzer had any brains he would have gone pig shooting and been out of
mobile phone range for awhile until the deal was done.;)
Lol, call of the day this, deserves more than only 9 likes
not sure if its been mentioned but, Jed Adcock was the deference on the week end, he looked very composed in attack and has played his bulk career as a defender. Abit of a swin man if you ask me.

Im for giving him a go on Brett Goodes rookie possition next year assuming Goodes doesnt get a contract extension.

He was captain and played a fair few finals with Brisbane. Surely would benifit the kids and help monitor them. Thoughts?
Don't think he'd get picked up in the rookie draft, he'd be a delisted free agent or traded for a token 5th rounder if anyone wanted him.

On what planet is jed Adcock not a valuable player for a rebuilding Brisbane that already lacks leadership??? Am i the only one that thinks it's madness for them to be punting him?? He's 29 years old FFS.
Agree, they have other players that should be well gone before him. Not sure of Bewicks contract status but I just don't see him as a decent AFL footballer at all. Also strange that they know they are losing players and yet they are willing to get rid of more experience and fabric of the club. Maybe all about Rockliff?

Brisbane were shown to have made a really bad call in R23. Reminded me of Melbourne punting all their experience players and ending up with no onfield leadership.

Got to be sunstroke or something going on up there.

I know I have heard that but I also heard Leon Cameron say treloar wants to stay at GWS and 1 day later requested a trade.
Treloar was a lock to leave half way into a year
A coach has to say that
I.e Ryan Griff is a required player at the club...

I feel slightly dirty, but I decided to do a google search for Geelong Mad Monday 2015.

I couldn't see any photo's of Mark Blicavs (although it's hard to tell)....
