Next year is the end of the two year contract.

If he gets through to end of next year without a contract he can go into the draft and the bottom team has first crack at him. That simple.

So if he wants out at the end of next year and specifically wants Freo or the Eagles.

1. They have to finish bottom to guarantee that he can walk out on us and to them.

2. They can finish anywhere else and Hogan can walk and do a Luke Ball - any other team drafts me i wont play for them - unlikely.

3. We participate in a trade to get him to Freo or the Eagles.

Those are his options.

I am still amazed that this ever happened. Clearly not how the system was designed to function and there are no repercussions.

I fecking hate how young players these days sook it up and demand where they will or won't play. If they won't sign and demand to go to a specific team they should be deregistered from all sanctioned AFL competitions for 12 months.

I agree with this it is a joke and needs to be stamped out.

In fairness, we'd all be ecstatic if the plethora of exciting young talent did everything in their power to leave GWS. Maybe not a great comparison given how destructive expansion clubs have been for the league overall, but you get the gist.

Not sure if Dom stood there stamping his feet with his bat and ball packed up ready to go home.

The exodus from Brisbane was revolting. Josh Caddy etc...

If you're drafted out of your home state you should not be able to hold your club to ransom by wanting to go home. SA and WA clubs have a massive advantage in this respect.

Chill! Making a mountain out of a molehill. Players are not that precious.

Chook, it's fair to say I was being sarcastic. Would italics help? Or just better wording?

Sorry. Sometimes it's hard to tell on this forum who is taking the pi$$. I'll be less protective of Saty in future.

You provide some value with your training reports, but my god, these comments make me cringe.

Not only that, but it basically means no MFC player would offer any nuggets of information, without first censoring themselves. This renders a lot of what is relayed to us as redundant.

Why, they do know they have supporters, and they do know there are fan forums, and they know I post on here, so they use me to answer questions for the supporters out there, Jesse knows every supporter wants him on the field and he actually appreciates the support

Thanks, Jesus. You're a real conduit.

Thanks Nutbean. Very clear!

He didn't demand to be traded to the Dees...not sure where you got that information from. He even renewed his contract with GWS until the end of 2015, however they valued pick 2 more than they valued retaining him.

Dom Tyson was still happy to stay at the Giants. He already knocked back Richmonds offer to.

I think you and Machsy really do need to revisit that specialist about those feelings of inadequacy you both keep getting, as I have said many times before, don't read my posts, it won't make me tear-up, I have stopped reading both of yours unless there is something like the above which needs clarifying

Not trying to make you tear up, but there's a palpable sense of self-importance there, and it makes you say silly things.

Why you feel the need to tell the kid he has "30 pages of nervous posters" rattling about his health, is beyond me.

I don't think the kid is ignorant, but I also don't think he needs to hear this stuff from a fanboy hanging over the fence.

It's just weird.

By memory Dom was keen but it was GWS who knocked back Richmond's offer

I am not quite sure which bit you don't get, perhaps it's your comprehension skills, I'll try again,

"I jokingly said to Jesse there were 30 pages of nervousness", he appreciated it.......got it now

I was enquiring about his health so I could post for the benefit of the many interstate and overseas posters/readers on here who appreciate that sort of thing, not for you or the other ne'erdowells whose sole purpose is not to add anything to a topic apart from spitting vitriol at certain posters

Would you like me to ask him how he is going again this morning?

I don't hang over the fence by the way, I lean nonchalantly against one of the many fine Australian native trees surrounding the training track

Again I'll repeat, don't read my posts, they seem to cause you extreme distress, perhaps there is also some latent masochism being displayed, methinks you take yourself way too seriously, I certainly don't.............you need to have a word with 'hardtack' or 'RGRS' they have successfully completed understanding Saty 101

Perth is one of the world's most geographically isolated cities and some might like it that way.

When I was young I headed for the bright lights and the big city.

Perth would not have cut it.

Some of the guys from SA and WA are happy to be in Vic and NSW.

It's just not in their financial interest to say this out loud.

And Saty. I too enjoy your training reports.

Leaning against a gum tree is quintessentially Australian.

Yes the posts are informative. I do enjoy them.

I dont like the thought that someone may be representing me (as part of Demonland) however the mood strikes them, to the club and its players.

I accept my view may be churlish.

Don't worry Franky, when Jesse sees you walking down the road he won't recognize you as a Demonland poster - and one of the better ones at that!

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
