Firstly the job of contract negotiation etc usually falls to General Manager of football operations
Second, when did it become ok to bag departing club legends, sacked or otherwise
And third, when did it also become ok for you to bag listed players, ones that as far as you know are valued by the current coach and could for all you know all play 24 games next season?
You seem quite ok to encourage others to lie (the last one suggesting that a club would betray doctor patient privilege and disclose if a player had failed a medical to just anybody to have it posted in a feral footy forum) yet seem ok to bag out your own to try to justify why the club is not as active in actual trades as much as the liars suggested we would be, so in order to assuage your guilt at believing the liars you bag out existing players.

Mclean may have well thrown a spanner in the works, but nevertheless my original statement stands as bottom end players were given contracts that we may be paying for now.
2. That's not bagging the coach and as with any organisation, you make mistakes you pay for them.
To think that Ratten was sacked only for not getting an injury depleted team into the finals is foolish at best..................and you're questioning signing on next year because Ratten was sacked.
Now that's laughable.
3. Bagging listed players? Here you go. Below are my observations posted in Feb/March this year re. Davies,
1. Marcus Davies
Marcus really looks to be having a tough time of things in this off-season.
One of the few players I can call to have gone backwards in this period, as his control of the ball has just deserted him.
Marcus is dropping marks, missing targets by hand and foot, and in general is fumbling the ball quite regularly.
It hasn’t all been bad, but the frustration on Marcus’s face has been evident quite regularly. It’s certainly not a case of his efforts not being there, but just for the skills to be down.
Marcus will need a big turn-around in order to catch the coaches’ eye over the next few weeks.
Rating: 5/10

The rest, which has been deleted is just your style: No Style.
Bottom line is that every club makes mistakes and some of our list management hasn't been top notch and middle of the road should not be good enough for the CFC. Should it now?
