He'd be irresponsible to stay... ergo he will leave.

Not sure if it was Healy or not, but Gerard usually gets pretty good mail.  He's pretty close to a number of players.

With McGovern just signing for 5 years, surely the piggy bank must be emptying quickly at the Eagles...

HAs to increase the likelihood that Gaff may leave.

I would’ve said LeCras but I reckon he’ll go around again based on his renewed form.

Restricted FA. Should WCE match what he is offered elsewhere, a trade must be done, or he goes into draft for Carlton to snaffle up. Most clubs would trade beforehand IMO, like Cats/Danger

Meth Coke won’t match tho

They’ll take their compo pick and trade it for Kelly from Geelong

Thanks mate, yeah he was the only one I could think of too, in that case they’d have to let Gaff go. I have heard they’ve offered him 4 x $800,000 but not a reliable source as of yet

I think West Coke will also try and get Mitch from the Crows who wants out and possibly Kelly from the Cats. They need Gaff to go for salary cap relief and also compensation that they can use to shore up potential trade/s.

If the Saints/Nth are going to make a godfather offer, then i think we need to do a bit of creative accounting and make some tough decisions on some players, to free up some cap space to offer something resembling their offer at least for the first few years. The incentive of playing for a better team should be enough for him to take unders, you'd hope.

Roos have more of a chance of landing him than the Saints.

Stay and get a sh!tload of cash with a team in premiership window (WCE), leave and get sh!tloads with a team not in premierships window (Kangas/St.K), leave and get sh!tloads of cash with a team coming into a premiership window (MFC/Pies/etc).

It will be option 1 or 3. Sorry aint's.

I don’t think Gaff will leave West Coast and go to a crap team. He’s a good enough player to command good money and some success.

Dare I say it? Hogan -> Gaff???

You dare not. For one, Gaff is a RFA. We don’t need to give West Coast jackshit for him. But I mean if you want to volunteer trading one of the best young forwards in the competition, I’m sure they’ll be all ears ?

    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.
