I always found it odd that when we brought in Jordan Lewis to the club, there was a big narrative about star players taking less so we could better retain players. However, Trac and Clarry are both reportedly on anywhere between 2.8-3.2 mil per year between them. Could even throw in Kozzy and we have 4.5mil a year tied up in 3 players. Since those deals have been given out, we haven't been able to recruit a big fish. The fact that Gawn has never been our highest earner says something to me. Some players let their agents twist the clubs arm to keep them, while others did the team thing.

In the same category as Rosas Jnr at the suns stats wise, maybe more effective at hitting the scoreboard.

If we end up in the situation of getting Rachele (23 next year) and Flanders (25 next year) for Christian Petracca (30 next year), I think that's just good business. Adelaides 1st and Rachele for Petracca and we on trade Adelaides 1st for Flanders. Rachele was basically a 2 goal per game medium forward, who also wants to go through the middle (Wonder where he plays if Petracca comes in).

Petracca isn't forcing his way out of the club. The club are open to the trade, Adelaide are open to doing the trade, so Petracca is talking to Adelaide. Why are people so butthurt.

Hopefully more inside next year. Like the idea of him resting forward.

I'd suggest a half back role for Lindsay. I don't think he has the frame to be a consistent inside player, but what do I know.

Staying in character until the DVD commentary 🤣

Really setting our new coach up for success.

Also I am just going to say it! He cost us that final against Carlton!

Anyone who thinks McVee wants to play midfield is just deluding themselves. He wants to be a running half back, like he was when he first came into the team. He struggled as a lockdown defender.

No way, Fremantle have academy picks and need points. We should hold out for 1st rounder.

First rounder will be nice, Freo don't need it.

Probably already mentioned, but are we the only team to not to lose Brisbane this year?

Yes, but picks are for the draft, not trade period.

Imagine we finish the trade period losing Petracca and only getting Derksen and Heath. Tim Lamb will still have his defenders.
