The only way i'd be happy for Moloney to go is if it was to trade for Boak.

...but port would never do that as they can get Moloney for free as an agent AND also some compensation for Boak in a separate trade.

dont bother....some just arent interested in the realities of either what is.. or the processes and compensations

Everyone wants to trade those you cant or rookie someone when there wont be any !!

D32 has been on the money of late. I guess that's that then.

That's a huge rock you've been living under.

I'm all dizzy.....

[Norm Smith's Curse 2,602]

Wasnt there a rumour that Neeld told Maxwell that Beamer and someone else just refused to listen to him?

You have got to think a level deeper - Brent going to Port as a FA might not be as bad as you think.

It's amazing and archaic that we don't have sign-and-trades in the AFL. Embarrassing.

It's worse that clubs can't trade on draft day

[Jaded No More 68,899]

A sad ending if true, for someone who was traded to the club he adored as a child, took on a leadership role and flourished in a midfield role last year.

Can't help but feel that most of this is his doing.

Of course it takes two to tango, but if his attitude was right, I don't think his decline in output would have bothered Neeld so much that he would dump him from the leadership group and not even give him a farewell game of sorts.

If Beamer does end up leaving, I wish him all the very best at another club, but I hope he has learnt his lesson. Don't [censored] where you eat. Sometimes change is hard, but headbutting it only makes it harder, and gives you a sore head.

Of course Jaded It is possible he has been offered a contract for 2013 and beyond and there is no need for a farewell game.

Yes I know there is an Easter Bunny too

[Sir Why You Little 37,032]

So you love footy because of the money? Silly comment WYL.

It aint silly at all. Since 2007 this club has paid over $54 million in player wages. Do you think the members have got value for money over the last 5 years Stuie?

I don't. I have had to sacrifice to pay the MCC & MFC Memberships each year.

[Sir Why You Little 37,032]

You obviously struggle to see the big picture.

No i get the big picture. Struggled to see Brent in it much in 2012 though.

He was given ample chances.

"Brent Moloney gone according to Channel 7 News..."

Just reported on the 6 o'clock news

Discuss...

[Samsara 65]

My girlfriend caught the end of it while I was in shower...what exactly did they say?

[Jack7 528]

Probably Port but he used to be best mates with Gazza,so he may play up here.

[Nasher 33,613]

Since I can't see the papers scrambling for the scoop, or the club(s) scrambling for a press conference, I'm assuming this reported in a rumour context and not a fact context.

[jumbo returns 6,741]

All the best, Brent.

[Hannibal 5,814]

Bye

[Guest Roberto Di Matteo]

Probably Port but he used to be best mates with Gazza,so he may play up here.

Not so.

Never been close to young Gaz.

(Speaking from personal experience having known them both since before being drafted.)

[Hardnut 327]

Apparently the story is on News.com/Herald Sun - if true and he goes, we have lost - another casualty of poor coaching.

[Supermercado 2,797]

No surprises, he hardly seems to be at the top of Neeld's plans right now. Good luck to him, can't fault his commitment the last few years and I hope he goes well but if he's not enjoying it and the coach isn't keen on him then he may as well go and play regularly elsewhere.

Port or Gold Coast would be a pisstake though.

[Longsufferingnomore 1,631]

If true how sad he wasn't given a more fitting farewell. Hopefully he will be at B&F and I for one will be thanking him for his contribution.
