Agree, come and have a run at Casey first and then we'll Fritsch you once your ready

With the cap space, l would say the compensation for Brayshaw will come in the form of a well paid quality free agent for next season

Tomlinson can ruck and so can JVR

He would be handy if Brayshaw has lingering head issues and Oliver doesn't come back for a while.

Joe saved the club, the fact he didn't take up some land is secondary in my opinion. Atleast we still have a club. I am more concerned by the fact that a number of other boards haven't been able to do what they promised

As backup ruck, l would use Tomlinson - can run all day and was doing it part time at GWS. Turner and others can cover him down back

Given they knocked our offer back and we don't have much more to offer them, l would say they are hoping for norf to do more. Both clubs should hold firm and let them stew on it further.

Pretty sure Tim Lamb said they will take 2 picks into the national draft ... don't think 46 will be used

We will have similar issues in Columbia. I hear locals are quite fond of certain plants over there and don't take to kindly to others cutting them down

Adelaide are trying to force the petty trade, good luck

Wonder if they are trying to get insurance to pay him out. Can't see tmac or BBB retiring and leaving money on the table, who would. tmac looked after the club already by flattening and extending his contact

We dont need a review, we just need to kick straight

Jake made a difference this season but keeping him on with a significant injury smells a bit of desperation and a shortage of options in the marketplace

He is a must to stay unless we trade a replacement in. Personally, we know he can play back. l get him doing ruck craft so he can replace or relieve Max in a break glass situation. Was rucking at GWS

Deakyn has not had his contact renewed

Senior AFL coaching opportunities are very rare. He has applied and if he gets offered the job will rightly go to the tigers who are well managed, resourced and back their staff in. The current list isn't great but that's about making sure expectations are aligned

He also played some ruck at GWS which might be handy now Grundy is gone

We just didn't kick straight and bombed away ... no more no less ... now we have quite a fresh injuries and reports ... 1 week is a longer time in football

He is good friends with Brayshaws which is the main problem

Part of the issue is Oliver bombs and lacks creativity and we become predictable ... when he was out this didn't happen as much

Its the vibe of it

Didn't say l was expecting anything, just making the point it would be good to trial. As for his exit, not sure we want him gone, l think he wants out is more the point, unless we have a classy player coming in with that cash that you know of?

One out of the box strategy that hasn't been tried. For teams with 2 rucks (e.g. Cox, Darcy) what if Grundy trails their 2nd ruck into their back line or the bench and plays on the opposition giraffe? Our forward line remains in tact.

At the start of the year the afl said they listened to supporters and wouldn't schedule past 7.20 ... slowly, slowly they mislead us as the crowds have come back

No coincidence the forward line started to function the moment he returned
