On the topic of the Godfather, Fantasia is a bit of a Fredo.
Contract ends at the end of this year? Can ruck as well and only 22.

Main List
- Myers - Retire - Did not even want to play senior football halfway through the season. He is cooked.
- Baguley - Retire - Good servant through tough times but time is up.
- Hartley - Trade - Bulldogs along with #61 for pick #45, Bulldogs need another KPD and Hartley will help us upgrade a pick.
- Long - Delist - See you later. See you around club functions.
- Houlahan - Delist - Thanks for your time. best of luck moving forward.
- Zaharakis - Trade - Melbourne for pick #38. Melbourne need some skillful users on the outside. Don't need to rely on him to get the hard ball.

Trade and Draft
- Trade pick #38 and #48 to Hawthorn for #26 (This gets them extra points for their F/S who will be bid on before #26 which in turn strengthens their draft hand.
- Use #26, #30, #31 and #45 on (2x Inside Midfielders, 1 x Ruck, 1x KPF) Draft for need, not best available.
- Upgrade Draper with #61
- Sign Sam Jacobs for 2 years
Hartley a free agent so no picks for him.
Pandoro is good too.

Why is he a free agent? What qualifies people for free agency. I need to do some reading it looks like. (Is Brown also a free agent?)

I like it. Is it worth having Sam Jacobs though? Belly and him are basically identical, Would Sauce come real cheap?
I found it interesting that Dawson Simpson retired, only 30, perfect back up for base rate.
Hartley and brown are both UFA I think because they've been on other AFL lists
I suppose Michael Knoll will still be on our radar as a ruckman.
Has played at least 8 NEAFL games while at Sydney but Sydney have persisted with Alir while deep in development mode.
Sinclair, Naismith and Cameron up there too.

He's definitely been Freddo for a number of weeks now, needs to get on a hot streak

Any more on the reason behind delisting Houlahan? I don't get to see VFL much so not sure how he's going. Doesn't sound positive.

Agree with everything except signing Sam Jacobs, I am pretty sure he is slower than Belcho
Just get a youngish mobile ruck that isn't useless, Hickey, Nankervis, Vardy were all cheap pickups and have proven their worth.
That ******* moron compared it to the "n" word for Italians.
Exactly the sort of rubbish I'd expect from a presenter on CNN.

Yeah complete idiot, Italians don’t have that view at all.
Just read ten pages. F me that was wack..
Heppell you'd never trade. Hooker you'd never trade. Tbell you'd never trade. Those guys are clubmen. They wouldn't want trades.
Hurley I could see being ok with a trade perhaps but we need him especially when hookers gone so no trade there.
I'd be getting another ruck but wouldn't give up on Tbell. If we had him the last month things would be much better.
I'd be trying to get Wines, J Martin and a ruck plus draft inside mid and forward. I'd let go of Laverde, Langford, Zaharakis, Myers, Baguley, Hartley and Raz (love him but injured too much and SA factor) to get them in. Daniher will take a pay cut and that can go to paying OW.

That is a joke, massive upside and actually performs. Must be injured or they have rocks in their heads.
So keep everyone and bring in more players.

Wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest if Darcy Cameron or Knoll was elsewhere next year.
The good news is that if Sydney elects to not retain Knoll he becomes a DFA and we can just sign him outright
