This is why we should come in quick smart and chase one of their midfielders which some will be squeezed. Bird or Luke Parker is who we should chase hard.

GWS Giants ‏@GWS_Giants 17h The GIANTS have withdrawn their offer to Buddy Franklin based on advice that he will accept an offer from the Swans

Mark Stevens ‏@Stevo7AFL 18m Extremely popular Tiger Matty White. Saw him casually walking into Demons' office last week. Would be a loss ... as a free agent has options.. Just wondering there are rumours swirling around that we made contact with Rockliff last week or this week sometime. There was reports Jade Rawlings boarded a Brisbane plane today I think with a Melbourne folder?

My favourite and i hope he pushes up to the midfield nect year. Pace, booming kick, hard at it, aggressive.. reminds me alot of Luke Shuey.

Bit of a difference.Freo is where he is from, they are a big club over in Perth with a massive fan base, talenyed group of players on the up in the next few years, and in real need of a key forward. I expect Freo to put a massive lucrative offer to him in two years if he doesnt sign with us. It would be a massive pulling point for him.

Actually his best position was when he was playing in the back line. His kicking skills off half back can be a weapon.

That article says to me he just thought it was all going to come him when he didnt expext to be delisted in 3 years.

Im going to go left field here and say Alan Richardson.

Simpson i believe was interviewed for the WC coaching gig today.

How about we start a topic like 'How to get off the bottom four' first. Half those players wont be there when we do make a grand final..

Im surprised this hasn't been brought up but did anyone notice this on Saturday..? Was taken down shortly but am I reading too much into this??

My early childhood was Steven Febey streaming off half back and pin pointing pass to the Ox leading out from CHF. Good times.

Very very interesting Franky!

Turn it up! Cant believe you have the grit to say there list management is worse then us! We are the laughing stock of the AFL because of the management of our list. Time to get out a bit more 316..

Im gonna get howled down for this but to be honest I would have kept Sellar ahead of Pedersen.. Thought he played his best footy as a defender taking the big gorilla forwards. And he actually had decent skills too.

LOL josh Kelly wont last till 18 hahah

Was told that he was gone before the last round has spoken to five and six clubs and thinks he still has a lot to offer body is good. Passion is sport and science and wants to stay in that industry. said it would be the perfect scenario Did some practical work with the Western Jets. Wallace said he sets the standard in regards to training and professionalism Wallace also said he would fit a Paul Roos type player. Said he is hungry to play and would go anywhere. Has been training hard already. Wouldn't mind going to a club to help young players out and even win. Wallace also said Cross is one of the best trainer he has ever seen in his time. He is also sets the standard and very team orientated. Wouldn't name the clubs he has spoken to out of respect and said the talks have been positive. Wallace just mentioned after the interview that he would be the perfect fit for Melbourne.

Good lets close this thread now

Will be very interesting in how Roos uses Grimes. Half back Flanker or Midfielder?

Daniel Cross will be on trade radio soon so will be interesting to see what he says in regards to his playing future.

Was surprised too. This says to me that we could be seriously targeting big name players for pick 2 as I thought Adams was a potential pick here.

Taylor Adams not coming to the club. Hasn't even spoken to us.. Source: His manager on trade radio.

Had a good first half of the year but really tired out physically towards the end of the year which is not surprising considering he had no pre season at all and came back from a knee reconstruction which wiped out his year last year. So for a 208cm ruckman to play 13 games this year and kick 7 goals is a impressive effort. Will only get better with a huge pre season and guidance under Paul Roos so expect a big year next year for Big Maxy. Signed a two year deal which will see him out till 2015. Gawn is quite mobile for a ruckman and has the ability to become our number 1 ruckman in years to come but, needs to build his tank up over the next couple of years to compete with the best. Though he did show he could match it with the best with impressive sole performance effort against Will Minson in round 14 for 3 qtrs, but blew out of gas in the last qtr. This will also come with experience as he will continue to play more games in 2014 and with maybe a Darren Jolly coming on board you could not look to no better then him as a mentor. Gawn has massive potential and has shown the glimpse why he could be a force. He is quite mobile, can take a contested mark, kicks goals when resting up forward, surprisingly shows aggression and doesn't mind a scruff. Thoughts for Max Gawn in 2014? Height: 208cm Weight: 108kg Games 2013: 13 Career: 17 2013 Goals: 7 Career: 8

Glad someone else finally agrees with me!

Just wondering do AFL clubs meet today and discuss potential trades etc?
