Redleg

31 in October.

Lucas Cook was sooking it up at his first training session with us. Jeffo had a stinker yesterday but I don’t see him as another Lucas Cook. A recent game where he was moving around the ground, was a very good hint of what is to come and we have already seen examples of his contested marking and accurate kicking for goal.

Jayden Hunt finished 4th in Eagles B & F. Well done Jayden.

Aside from Nick Daicos probably missing, Pies are at full strength.

Similar to what we paid is not a bad result. I was posting in reference to the “we will do whatever we are told type of deal.”

Looks like future picks, or we have a player in mind.

Unless we arranged the meeting with Hinkley, Rozee and Butters, we can safely assume Grundy wants to leave. He is contracted to us. We hold the cards. We will assist him to get to Port, or wherever, but won't be screwed over as suggested by Ralphy. He will likely replace Lycett, who is on the same money at Port. I don't think Lycett is an AA ruckman. Port are one of our main opposition. We get a fair deal, or we tell him to go to a club that gives us one, or he can stay with us as Insurance. His and his preferred club's choice. “Coach Ken Hinkley spent the day in Melbourne to lead the power pitch, joined by All Australian pair Zak Butters and Connor Rozee. “Port now the clear front runners for Grundy who looks increasingly likely to request a trade at season’s end. “Expect Melbourne to drive a hard bargain.”

Ralph really might help his articles by reading them, before he publishes them. His suggestion of Port’s deal to get him is we pay more of his contract and they give a late pick. I think I must misunderstand the situation. Grundy is contracted to us and Port want him. So in his suggestion we beg them to take him, an AA ruckman going to one of our main opponents, by paying part of his contract and getting a late pick back, after we paid pick 27 to get him, only one year ago. The inference is clear in his suggestion that Port hold all the chips. How do these blokes get and keep jobs in the media ?

From what we know WC want Curtin and Roos would take Reid over Curtin and that would remove go home factor as well. Of course clubs take interstate players, but from all known info at this stage, these clubs want the home player. We will see what happens.

So you think WC will take Reid and Roos will take Curtin. I can't see that happening.

Goodbye Casey.

Well we know picks 1 and 3 won't happen that way, if the current owners retain them. It is more of a rating.

I have said this before, but JW in our side now and our flag chances would increase significantly. He would be ahead of JVR and Tom by a country mile.

Staying at Bombers for 5 years.

I would imagine they are only impressed with player requests from players leaving other clubs to come to them. That is impressive!

We are playing for a PF next week, with only one AA player this year on the list and having had long term injuries to Clarry, Fritta, Max, Petty, BBB, Tom Mac and Salem. Pretty fantastic performance by the club.

Exactly what I said, except that he is bigger than both Weid and Scache and has more experience in the ruck than they do. Not saying we would want him, but he may be discussed if we are looking at pick 4.

Well if we want 4 and a back up ruck/forward, assuming Grundy leaves, it may be a discussion to be had. 27 at start of next season, so experienced and would not expect to be best 23.

The allegations were made as part of an external review commissioned by the club, and were made public by the ABC on 20 September 2022. An AFL investigation was triggered, and ran until May 2023. 30 Sept 2022 — Hawthorn have signed Port Adelaide wingman Karl Amon to a four-year deal after the AFL free agency period opened on Friday.

Karl Amon says hi.

Maybe a straight swap with Brockman, who wants to return home.

Wow. Now we will only have to go to Geelong for the next 20 years.

.

What type of house do you have?

I think we will do exactly that for him and Melk, to help them financially, keep them involved and continue our strong culture development. That also doesn’t tie up list spots and our players and player managers would see our commitment to our players. That is gold.
