This bloke is such an average plodder. Would bring me great joy if Geelong overpaid for him.

He and that other guy who screwed us after we stood by him for so long can fight it out for a spot on the team.....or the bench.

Why not speak the truth. After all there is no way a Fitzpatrick (Mr Integrity #2) run commission will do a thing about it.

spot on.

there is a sanctioned word in my little Blue bound Oxford dictionary, represented by a winking eye; & there's another sanctioned word, represented by a forked blue tongue.

the integrity word is to me, a bit more confusing, ambiguous, & any other adjective you could name... guess we'll have to trust the commission to understand they're meanings then?

can someone please send this to the AFL Commission for me ?

equivocal, ambivalent, open to debate, open to argument, arguable, debatable;

I think Henderson is underrated.

Don't want him at MFC though.

What's the thinking behind this, mate?


Posted

At least he has been upfront.

He's not a snitch like our own Stuie.

Don't be such a meanie... Stuie is a Flamin' mongrel....ha ha ha

Disappointing approach to his footy this year.

Look at how someone like Danger approaches his game in what may be his last at Adelaide and Ablett in his final year at Geelong. Great players but also professionals getting on with the game.

I honestly don't mind this. Better than him playing when he isn't committed to the club.

That is a two way street - clubs are routinely not committed to players but don't return the respective honesty that Henderson has shown...

Also, players let clubs know they are leaving but that club doesn't make it public. Carlton don't want to win games and so they have released his desire to move on to serve the purpose of losing games.

I don't like the release of information prior to the end of Rd 23. I would punish players, agents, and/or clubs for confirming rumours if I was down at AFL HQ.

At the start of the year, i wouldn't have minded us going after him, but the way he has conducted himself (particularly in the second half) this year really shows how poor his attitude is. Keep away from him.

So Carlton reckon Henderson, Yarran and Menzel are all worth first round picks. They'd be lucky to get a first round pick for all three in a package deal, let alone individually.

Yarran clearly has a bad attitude, Menzel is always injured and barely gets a touch anyway, and Henderson is probably best as a second or third forward / defender.

Looks like being an interesting trade period 'poita' with Carton & EFC both overvaluing their players...

The supposed weak draft will contribute to Carlton overvaluing the draft pick value of their players

Simultaneously the clubs with early picks will covet those picks.

It's amazing how the previous year's #1 pick just about automatically becomes less valuable than the following year's actual pick itself! i.e - Paddy McCartin will have less trade value than the #1 pick this year.

Hendo rumoured to command 600k. He isn't anywhere near worth it.

Pass for me.

Lol. If that's true Howe is worth $1mil and Hogan $8mil!

Depends whether Essendon keep Dodoro or if he gets traded to Carlton.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
