Carlton/GCS must pick 'mature age' players (no picks involved).  The player is then tradeable for a pick.

What a weird set up that is

It works the same way as the 17 yo pre-list GWS had.  It is how we got Hogan.

Just a shame we weren't handed bonus picks to trade at the time so we could land him for free.

I keep hearing those 2 pre draft state league pick aren't tradeable? Wasn't Grigg on the Crows list previously?

They are tradeable and certainly by picking players and then trading them. Yes Grigg was on Crows list.

it is absurd that they are 'tradeable'

That was the back door way to avoid PP's, which are probably now dead in the water.

I think the AFL is concerned that PP's affect all the other clubs and especially some that can't afford to be disadvantaged by having their picks become less valuable.

We will need the money he would cost to keep and develop our own.

If he goes anywhere it will be to north so what the hell is anyone here is talking about him anyway. Hope he stays will be a huge dagger in the north's heart.

I hear he said NO....that's pretty quick. He wants to come to a secular set up.....

Josh Kelly will only consider signing a long term deal at one of three Clubs.  His management has been told to only engage with GWS, Kangaroos & Carlton.

Whilst my info was pre Christmas, it came from another player looked after by his management team and I believe it’s on the money.

Not 10 years. Only until end of 2021. 

That is interesting.   Is he holding off,   just in-case the Giants don't look like being premiers,  anytime soon.?

... or the opposite ?   So he could return after... for his superannuation funds ?

 

Feb'  2022...   he will have Just  turned,  27Yrs old.

Judging by what we have done with our super-draft pick, I am sure we would have found a way to waste them on nth-order things like 'leadership'.

Meh... was never going to come here so not at all concerned that he’s signed on.  

If anything, it’s good news as it makes it harder for them to hang onto their two other good free agents Coniglio and Tomlinson.

    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.
