It's a kind of relief that we are close to closure on this. I just hope there aren't more of his ilk floating around the club.

James has proven that he is not, and was never, a true leader of this football club. He is now an irrelevant ex player that hopefully delivers a gun from pick 3. Bye James. Learn how to kick.

Well, at least Hawthorn should be able to pay more for Frawley than Geelong would, considering Buddy & Sewell are off the books.

Because it's now almost certain Frawley is not going to Geelong.

But they won't. So we could get screwed here.

Anything over $500k for over 5 years will be band 1.

In 5 years time, $500k will be absolute peanuts for an AFL salary. Ergo, his manager hasn't spent all this time shopping him around (likely to go back to his preferred destinations -- Geelong and Hawks, and tell them what they need to offer) to accept a low-ball offer from Geelong. $550,000 - $600,000 over 5-6 years is roughly where I think he'll be signed.

That Hawthorn and Geelong both want him means they'll bid against one another to get him.

Hope you are right. Then we get tier 1 compo and feel so much better for being shafted!

So what happens if Nathan Jones leaves next year via free agency?

If we don't show much improvement next year Jones will leave next year. simple.

H_H won't post here again if that happens.... ;)

And all the other clubs will be over the moon when free agency compo gets scrapped due to the 'outcry' over pick 3.

Fantastic short-sighted decision by Carlton, St Kilda and Brisbane to all come out criticising free agency compo. Downright idiotic really.

if pick 3 is not given as compensation I can only assume the AFL no longer want the MFC in the competition and I will lose my [censored].

I reckon you can take everyone off the banner aside from Jones and Roos and start building again from scratch

Really? I think if we get pick 3 it will be the biggest swindle since the great train robbery

Has anyone in the media taken a step back from all this FA, trade frenzy and commented on the injustice of the current system that creates the outrageous situation whereby the two most successful clubs of the last decade are picking over the carcass of the least successful club, squabbling over taking a mature power forward and a fullback in his prime for f-all cost to them.

I could handle this if the AFL had any commitment to equalisation in the long run for all clubs. I am not factoring in tier1 compo at all for Chip until I see it happen.

Why would actual thought go into the media..

Is there still red and blue still in veins.

Needs to check himself into a blood donation center asap.

The guy stands up for a soon to be former colleague and we are rabid about it.

Effing ridiculous.

    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

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
