no to trading hogan but play him at chf....please one thing we are short on is kp players. one goes down we are in trouble, two we are in deep sh.. (p.s. i don't consider lever a genuine kpp) whilst i think his best position is chf i wouldn't be averse to him being tried at chb (or a swing-man kp player)

it all really depends if gaff wants to come to the dees nothing happens until gaff nominates his club of choice, it's not an auction as such of course the $$$s will form part of his decision making but there are other considerations. wherever he goes (or stays) he will be getting big money if he nominates us then the best deal wc can get is the afl compo and as others have pointed out that may be good enough for them to get kelly from the cattery

clarrie needs 35 disposals this week to end the home and away season on an average of 30 disposals per game last year he missed the 30 mark by one disposal in his last game

if eagles now miss top four and/or have a poor finals series there might be a bit of animosity towards him as he would have been a big part of any finals success. maybe another reason to leave?

no. just tackled after ball is kicked is just fine for the rule agreed may is different because this was a handball situation and wasn't a tackle. it was a bump and it was high you also can't tackle a player after a handball, but you can block or bump within 5m any player whether he has just disposed of it or not. the exception being if the player is attempting to mark the ball
-
i don't think you can determine it by metres or milliseconds, that is just too crazy how is the tackler able to judge whether the ball being kicked has travelled 5m in a few milliseconds so it is ok to tackle. plainly he can't, nor can an umpire it needs to be kept simple. late is late, and i think this is what umpires judge it on. there is then (sometimes) a little bit of common sense, if the tackle is a split second late and the impact is inconsequential the umpire could ignore it like they can with many other marginal free kick situations the overriding rule though is you can't tackle a player after he has kicked the ball

i have never heard an umpire say a tackle after a kick was a free because the ball was > 5m away. They always say late tackle. i.e. a tackle after the ball was kicked. now it may be true that in a split second the ball has travelled 5m but no-one uses 5m as a yardstick because it is impossible for an umpire to measure with the speed of a ball immediately off the foot you might get away with a split second late tackle depending on force of tackle but there is certainly no guarantee. very hard for an umpire to determine a 'split second late'.
-
you can't tackle/bump a player after he has kicked the ball. it must be only while he is in the motion of kicking. you could probably give a bit of leniency for being a split second late but any more time and it is a free up the ground are you saying i can tackle/bump a player after he has kicked it as long as the ball is within 5m? how could you possibly measure 5m when it is a normal kick immediately after contact with foot? it has always been judged on time after disposal. late is late.
-
no you are not. he made up th 5 m rule, it doesn't exist for someone who has just kicked the ball hit someone late after disposing of the ball is a free kick every day, and based on lateness, not 5m now whether it is reportable is a different matter but got nothing to do with a mythical 5m

really? no thanks!

should have been a wake up call when malthouse sung his praises and mcchins feigned outrage n

whatever gaff's nominated club offers has to be matched in $s and no of years - simple it's not an auction
-
he seems to think he can play like pendlebury and hold the ball as long as likes
-
only if you believe the "reported" figure they are generally exaggerated for click bait
