The No T$ No B$ Thread
Funny how it seems to happen to us regularly. Last week Rioli, Sewell and Lewis came back for Hawks and won them the game while we lost Jurrah and you know who. This week Ottens, Ling, Stevie J and maybe Mooney are back for the Cats, not that they wouldn't beat us without them. Stars come back against us and are best on ground and we seem to lose a player or two from the selected lineup on the day.

The No T$ No B$ Thread
Can you believe it, that other bloody thread is up to nearly 900 posts, the 3rd time around. Full of conjecture and speculation with one poster nearly at 100 posts. I can see a total meltdown of the board when the decision is announced. For those with other interests, Melbourne may give up the Grand Prix and Cadel Evans is set for the ride of his life. Go Aussie, win the bloody thing.

THE AFL will press ahead with plans to set up its own player agent system, despite admitting it will be a conflict of interest. The AFL wants to establish a separate body to act on behalf of young players before they are drafted and can be approached by accredited agents. The move is likely to set the league on a collision course with the current player agents. AFL boss Andrew Demetriou said there would be no issue with the league managing young players and trying to develop the game at the same time, even if there was some conflict. "Of course it's a conflict but I think people have got to be aware that there are legitimate times where conflicts of interest can occur, as long as they're managed properly, in accordance with good corporate governance," Demetriou said ] Next.

The No T$ No B$ Thread
I am a little embarrassed to raise this here as it originates on the other thread, but I won't post there, though I think it is an interesting point. Robbie F raised the issue that if you know who doesn't sign with GWS this year, then GWS, as they have offered him a contract can't take another uncontracted player this year.He said that if we signed up everyone we wanted to keep while you know who is deciding whether to leave, they couldn't make an offer to anyone else, until the decision was made. If we secure our boys then no one is available to them to grab this year. I don't think that is correct. I don't think they are limited in how many offers they can make, but only in how many they can actually take under this uncontracted player poaching rule. They are limited to getting 1 player but I don't know of any limit on offers that can be made. What Robbie is saying is that if we sign up everyone we want to keep and then you know who stays, we will not lose anyone to them that we want to retain and that the club may be using the next few weeks to do this. Can someone clarify this.
