Yes, he is 8 months older than the last post.

Wow, what a post Pinball. Most interesting to me, is the fact that the same clubs are bidding on nearly every available player, with seemingly no problem with their salary caps. These clubs have also recruited heavily last year, obviously offering lucrative contracts to get their new players. How do they have so much cap room?

No way, Dodoro will offer pick 92.

Didn’t like playing ruck.

Leave it to the experts, you may be surprised at the outcome.

Making room for Cameron.

Agreed and kept it quiet until it happens.

Am waiting for the following post. "Trade week has been open for over 2 hours and we haven't got anyone yet. Mahoney should to be sacked."

You are correct, I just listed players without checking rookie status. My figures may then be modified, if other players don't go, but we will then have more numbers to fill, albeit rookie spots.

He is not quick and a poor shot for goal, just saying.

I am shocked that a club is declaring it will play hardball on trading two of its players away. Oh wait, no I am not, it’s Bombers on Saad and Fantasia. Dodoro the most hated list manager in the game is at it again.

Was that your tip or Ricky's? Well done to whoever.

No H reported at 2 years at $900k and last 3 at “well over “ a $1m in each year. That could be at around $1.2m a year x 3. That is a nightmare situation. Add those figures to health issues, dodgy hammies, a separation for a year from wife and child and poor disposal as a player and you are looking at destroying us and our culture. Too big a risk, unless our commitment capped at say $400-$500 k a year, a trade of above pick 50 and a commitment from God that he plays for 5 years at a reasonable standard. Otherwise move on and look at less disruptive and risky scenarios and players. Imagine how our players would feel if he lost form and was gifted games because of the contract price being justified and generally just playing with an outside mid earning over a $1m a year, irrespective of who was paying him. This deal could kill a club and is doing that right now to his present club. Players upset. Fans upset. Treloar upset. I am over it. Try harder for Clark or Phillips or whoever.

4 players delisted. 6-8 more possible trades or delisted. That is 10-12 off the list. Brown in. That is 9-11 spots. AFL reduce lists by 2, that is 7-9 spots. We are drafting 7-9 players? No we are not. We will pick up a few more players in the next 10 days. We won’t go to the draft with more than 4-5 selections.

Don’t believe it.

He could also ruin us. Media saying he has a 5 year contract starting at $900k per year the first couple and the last few at “well over” a $1m a year. He apparently sacrificed salary on his previous contract, to get make up in this contract. Now Pies have changed their mind and don’t want to honour it. This is not only a culture killer for the Pies, but possibly also at any new club he goes to. This is getting very hard and I would walk away from any involvement. We have enough problems of our own. This is without even considering other issues Adam has in his life and even in his game. I wish him the best, most likely staying at the Pies. Whatever happens, he will get all his money and so he should. Now onto Phillips or whoever else we are looking at, without excess baggage.

Maybe Tom Mac and pick 80 would get us Treloar and Phillips, with Pies paying a large chunk of Treloar’s 5 year contract. They are in a real mess and their players will be watching this very closely, as to how AT is being treated. This is a real culture killer atm.

It will never get to a legal situation as the AFL and Players Association will solve it. Whatever happens here, Treloar will get paid in full.

Getting closer to my $400-$500 and pick 50.

If true that they want a top 10 pick then he stays a Pie.

I don’t know anything. It was in response to a request for a riddle.

Would the person who told you know?

Now you are talking when you say, “ if we can get him cheap “. What you originally said you would do in a heartbeat, is swap Tom Mac for him and pay all but $200k per year for 5 years. I would reject that in a heartbeat. Agree no downside in chatting.

You would be the only One I would imagine. What do you normally pay for a coffee, $50.00?

The price just dropped even lower.
