How many unrestricted free agents that have said: I will leave my decision if I stay or go till seasons end.Tthen re-signed with that club?

None that I can think off.

I am 99% sure he is gone at seasons end, same as all the others who have played this "waiting game"

I hope he stays. We have become a FA feeder club in recent times for obvious reasons. Now it's time for it to stop. We are on the improve and good loyal players like Dunn are showing the way.

If he goes I hope we get decent compensation or I will be [censored].

End of rant.

Cloke.

Boak did something similar but I don't think he was a free agent.

Don't disagree with any of this, but unlike others you are not allowing what we as supporters feel very uncomfortable about regarding his contract, with how he is actually playing.

I have always felt very uncomfortable with FA. It's a killer for the poorer clubs and will remain so in its current format. His contract was front ended I believe and this may affect the compensation we would receive for him.

Your a fan of his from my readings here. Trust me I hope he stays. He is a good footballer for us. He will be a very good footballer in a very good team. AFL is about team and ours has be so bad for so long. For me our biggest asset is also a liability in that we have one of the best coaches you could possible get in Roos. I just wish all this 2 years 3 years then a successor will resolve itself soon. 5 years plus sounds good to me.

I think Frawleys kicking is average. Many here question his decision making, but some of that is about what other team mates should be but are not doing off the ball at times.

He plays his best football in defence, no brainer there.

Cloke.

Yes your right thanks. Cloke did an awesome job pushing up his price

Still reckon Frawley is in our best 10-12 players, and we need all of them to stick around. He smashed Jones today and looked good down back with some nice dash. Can't think of a player who didn't stuff something today, Frawley did also.

Would much prefer he stay than go, would say some great things about us as a club. Sadly I reckon he will play round 1 next year at full back on gunston for the Cats.

I've been in the keep him camp until today I thought some of his lapses cost us the game and when the ball went through his legs it was embarrassing. Terlich got clean bowled too, how can that happen to AFL footballers.

And the shank of Vince and the poor handball of Jones that coughed up goals. Yet we only get stuck into the whipping boys.

The Dockers are chasing Frawley hard.

I think you answered your own question in a way - it doesn't happen to AFL-calibre footballers...

And he'll get a first class look at them this week.

I thought he was good today, provided run and had a few choice intercept marks, but I was thinking while he was back there that Dunn was getting less footy due to his presence - and with Dunn so superior to Frawley ball in hand it hurt our rebound. And Garland has no touch, he is making simple errors he hasn't made for 3 years.

But let's not kid around - if we had displayed basic skill execution in the first quarter we would not have lost that game.

But kudos to the Dogs - they have some good kids.

And he'll get a first class look at them this week.

Spot on. Hopefully he remembers who he's playing for...

Perhaps that's because this is a thread about Frawley.

There were plenty of poor decisions made by our players today and perhaps we should start a thread about each player.

He was excellent for the first three quarters, completely shut out a player who has been average at best all season.

His last quarter was terrible and finished with his young inexperienced opponent kicking the final two goals through rudimentary mistakes.

If he wants to see where this club is heading before making up his mind, he should accept he is as much a part of the problem as anyone involved.

Our experienced leaders should not be making these errors, especially one who wants the kind of money he is looking for.

Yes they are but they are not willing to pay the world for him, which they have made clear

Yes that would be the case. However a major sponsor has no problems with putting players on the books as employees

A point much missed

I don't think he was on Bontempelli. He was on Stringer for the last quarter.

Cloke.

Pavlich.

Yes your right thanks. Cloke did an awesome job pushing up his price

Isn't that his prerogative? Much like Frawley's.

Just acting on sound advice, most would say.

I don't think he was on Bontempelli. He was on Stringer for the last quarter.

I watched the replay. He was.

I watched the replay. He was.

Fair enough. I'll have to watch the replay.

Bontempelli should give Frawley half of his goal of the year prize

What a pathetic effort , had 2 chances to clear the ball and was completely useless and basically handed them the goal

If we get a top 5 pick for Frawley we will be overcompensated thats for sure

You like stirring the pot, don't you, HH?

Thought he was gone for sure while playing up forward but Roosy putting him down back (where he belongs) gives me some hope he'll stay.

Frawley destroyed Liam Jones today. When your opponent gets subbed off you've done your job.

the problem with this adjudication is it assumes a one sided roe for the player. This doesnt exist any more. How many times do we hear the emphasis on players up and down, or defensive as well as offensive etc. Works other way too. Offensive as well as Defensive.Chips defensive game is largely brilliant. His proactiveness into a forward thrust style of passage of play often gets the ball returning quick smart....or stuffed up. A lot of his passing land the supposed recipient a booking at the inpatients !!!

Perhaps that's because this is a thread about Frawley.

There were plenty of poor decisions made by our players today and perhaps we should start a thread about each player.

And yet you mentioned Terlich ! There were plenty of errors made out on the ground that shouldn't be made.

The constant bashing of Frawley is doing my head in ( not by you) . I have no problem on a emotional level on those that wish to bash him over the contract negotiations - we want all players to be loyal and sign up on the clubs timnetable - not the players. But the bagging of his form is purely motivated or clouded by his reluctance to re-sign (or because he is already gone) and is just not an accurate portrayal of how he has played this year.

Mind you, Liam Jones isn't much of a scalp...
