Farewell Sam Frost

Interesting.

After the season he had, how would we feel about potentially losing him to another club?ย  At the end of last year it might not have mattered too much, but he certainly improving in 2019.

Any kind of source of reference for this mate? Didn't he just re-sign?

He was close. Not sure if this report is accurate but thought Iโ€™d pass it on. Hasnโ€™t signed as yet

Would be a massive loss. Regardless of his disposals he is key to our future. Love how he plays. Can play big or small


Would be disappointing if he left.

I have no faith, trust or confidence in Lever and May playing a full season, and O Mac's not in our best 22.

Depends what we get.ย  Frost had a great season which gives him some currency.ย  We have O Mcdonald and Petty, plus Hore, May and Lever.ย  O Mcdonald is worth nothing in a trade, Petty the same, Frost we might get a second round pick.ย  I reckon to club would listen to offers fro Frost and Brayshaw

ย 

OK hawks pay for what they want, I say their first round draft pick will do.


Would be pretty Melbourne to invest in 2 injury prone highly paid Defenders that struggle to get on the parkย  and then let go of the next best defender, will finish top 5 in the Bluey, great cover and pace, and is flexible.

Say it aint so...

So we have Petty who is developing nicely, and OMac as depth. ย Frosty might have legspeed to break the lines and may have some currency in this trade. ย If he is going to the hawks, what do we get for him? ย Assume he is not FA or RFA, so are we realistically looking at a second rounder? ย Or maybe a future second rounder? ย Would worry he doesnt fit their precise kicking model, as all he has is โ€˜frost-ballโ€™.

Given we have May and Lever,ย Petty, Hore and Jetta, and one other (Hibbard? ย Salem?) Frosty may think he has little chance of a regular place in the back 6. ย He may move to the wing, but with options coming in (Tomlinson and Langdon), he might just want to explore his options going out.

Could be good for all parties. ย Otherwise, he might just be enhancing his negotiating position. ย Or he is lost and is asking for directions.

Could this be part of the deal that lands us Gunston? Who knows. #ETthetradebreaker.ย 

Is that Basil Gunston??????

I believe Gunstonโ€™s nickname at the Hawks is indeed Basil.ย

You made me go and look it up you bugger. It's actually Norman.


He's a funny unit Sam. he athletically is amazing but he does some bizzare things, i think he's a talanted individual but the amount of times he flies at balls he shouldn't and does weird things with ball in hand.ย 

you kinda want guys who just fill a role, especially down back and i think Sam is probably one who has currency,

Is Frosty a RFA?

This brayshaw talk is crazy talk

what's his worth?

second round pick? third round pick and isaac smith?

he might not get better than he was this year and...he's still not that good

i think we paid pick 23 for him?

Third round pick and Issac Smith sounds like a good deal to me, i think we could use the experience.ย

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFLโ€™s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.ย

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    Iโ€™ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we wonโ€™t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything youโ€™d like to ask or say below and weโ€™ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics youโ€™d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
