One of his other clients might be looking for a new manager , A Clarkson . If bud goes to syd as predicted , Allister will not be happy despite public statements . Hawthorn would have accepted Gws knowing full well buddys impact will be less than his impact at Sydney who must have come in as flag favourites if he goes to syd

Be interesting to see who picks this up...

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2013-07-06/buddy-will-stay-manager

Player managers are about as trustworthy as politicians and used car salesmen.

sen replayed an interview from aug 6 with pickering who did a freudian slip and said he was dealing with tSydney , then corrected himself and said hawthorn.Gws was a smokescreen used by Pickering . Will Gws ever deal with him again?

All AFL managers are on a fixed percentage. I believe it is 2% of the players salary. They can negotiate for any percentage on extra deals such as media appearances, book deals etc.

Nonetheless he is making plenty - and yes he is Gary abletts manager.

If Hawthorn get Mumford out of this they'll probably see it as a win win. They get the ruckman they desperately need and Tippett goes into second ruck duty at the swans. Tippett is the most dangerous forward to Hawthorn as he can get right on top of Lake. Franklin will be an upgrade but I bet Josh Gibson is confident he can still do a job on him, impressive games on Franklin is what got him to the hawks in the first place.

Franklin says to Pickering I want to go to the Swans under Free Agency and my speedos to party in spas in with rugger chaps and Pickering organises a deal to do the former if not the later. That is a player agent doing his job.

The only issue is that he blatantly lied which he should have been able to avoid by being a little smarter.

Being on a Yobbo Radio Show Weekly doesn't help

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
