I do not know the bloke or the circumstances, but I would extremely be VERY surprised if this was not a really genuine situation.

I know that he has been undervalued by Demonland people (not all !!) but there has not been many better clubmen in the Club's history than Nibbler.

He deserves to go with our (sad) blessing but also with our thanks.         Life is more important than footy !!

 

Love the bloke. Absolute heart and soul player who has given his all. Will miss him greatly. Premiership champion 🔴🔵🏆

You must be new here. Welcome to Demonland.

Not new at all but it never ceases to amaze me.


Reading this thread, one thing hasn't been said: I expect he is a bit gutted at having to leave. I doubt if it was an easy decision to make.

This seems more benign but no less impactful with the question marks over 5, 7, and 13.

We are in a state.

I thought we had good form on managing leaks recently.

One of the issues this club needs to resolve is this right here.

Also fixing the footy stuff too. That's number one.

But leaks are definitely up there.

This. Find the leaker and sack them

Astonished at this. Only 2 years left and the excuse is family reasons? I take that back if family reasons mean someone is gravely ill, but for a new baby? Give me a break, it’s Adelaide for God’s sake 

It turns out having a child several hundred kilometres from family support can be difficult - and for new parents, in ways that simply cannot be understood beforehand. 

And WTF is wrong with Adelaide?

Have I mentioned it was leaked to the media?

Seriously, the family didn’t want it made public yet. Unfortunately someone has betrayed their confidence and now it’s public knowledge. The family is furious about that.

Just wanna reiterate… this is something the family has been discussing for a while. It has ZERO to do any of the current stories making the rounds.

Wow did you come up with that all on you own? 

I honestly opened this thread expecting it to be a joke. Feel like there’s a bit of a domino effect going on at the moment.

Thanks WCW for the iportant context and for keeping some of us sane....I still feel devastated.

Nothing, it’s just not that far away 


If ANB wants to go home then we should shake his hand and wish him well. He’s earned the right to be sent off with a minimum of fuss and our best wishes.

Not sure what you want me to say, so as usual I will just be honest.

A good clubman, a very nice guy, extremely fit, who tried his heart out and improved over the years, giving everything, but who still can turn it over at inopportune times.

Disappointing, but I accept his reason and wish him and his family well.

Interestingly he hasn’t named a club, unlike an earlier traded player, who insisted on one club limiting our trade potential.

 

Say nothing - it’s all good. He’s taken so long to be a B+ grader, that I’m annoyed that he’s out the door 

Oh well, potentially a 2nd rounder

Not sure we’ll get much in return for him sadly. Love Nibbler 

Lucky to get pick in the 40’s

He is

1- contracted 

2- highly rated by clubs and brings not only leadership and a superb work ethic, but unmatched defensive abilities. 
 

Both SA clubs would be happy to have him, and I will be shocked if we take less than a good second round pick.

If we see 'Gawn linked to New Zealand' articles then we're really in trouble

I've read a rumour that he's being chased by the Dunedin Dodos

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
