Hawks racism allegations (merged thread)
If anyone thinks there isn't going to be more and more news each day on this they are kidding themselves.

Farewell Jayden Hunt
That's true, how the hell can someone say our VFL depth is rubbish?

Well as the old saying goes, if you have two QBs, you have none 😛

Well they reckon they went through a clear and structured process so we have no choice but to believe them..

Farewell Jayden Hunt
I thought his season last year was far and away his best one at MFC.

Draft and Trade Needs
I see what you're saying as we do need mature age depth but we just need to be careful that any recycled guys we get don't become list cloggers. I trust that we'll be looking at all available and if the right player comes along we'll do what we can to get them. Just comes down to how many of those do leave.

Farewell Jayden Hunt
It's a very nice destination for Jayden really. They would love his quirky nature over there.

Jack Bowes Salary Dump
Makes perfect sense. It would suck if clubs just let Geelong have a straight line to him.

Delisting/Out of Contract Targets
I haven't seen much of Callum Brown but he looks so slightly built. Does he have a decent tank? I just can't see much for him other than a Caleb Daniel type distributor role off back. Can't see him running through an AFL midfield week after week.

Trade and Free Agency rumours
You always worry when these sleeping giant clubs like Essendon and Carlton claim they are doing the full shortlist process, sometimes they just can't help themselves and they are handpickers at heart. You just have to feel sorry for guys like Adem who go down the garden path to the end several times.

Farewell Luke Jackson
It's real 101 stuff isn't it! There's been tons of books written on win-win negotiation in business and it has clearly worked in AFL trading. Individual trades get put under the microscope a lot when it's really about the long run and you do want to pay it forward to an extent so you can manifest something down the treack if needed. I'd love to extract big time value for LJ but I would probably take those two picks at this stage. Have to remember the trade period is short and you're on the clock to make deals, no use turning up on the day and requesting pick 2 with the threat to walk.

Delisting/Out of Contract Targets
Sadly, no. The Bennell experiment still scars a little.

Jordan De Goey
It's not pleasant and I'd hope that they treated him and his brother with the utmost respect. I guess a lot of clubs do things differently, some get an inkling a few weeks out that they won't be offered a new deal and some by the look of it get the news all in one hit.

Farewell Sam Weideman
Would it be fair to say the ruckmen that succeed around that height really need to be the athletic running ruckmen eg. Goodes, White, Stynes, P Moore?

Yeah Cooper is no world beater but he's proven he can win games, always like these stories where an opportunity presents and a QB takes it and boosts their stock level.

Farewell Jayden Hunt
Should he stay or should he go? If he stays there will be trouble but if he leaves there will be double.

Jordan De Goey
I didn't read the article but I kind of assumed the worst that he wasn't even told that he was going to be de-listed and found out in the papers or something. That is much, much worse!

Jack Bowes Salary Dump
I would really love it if a building club got him. St Kilda should be pushing Brad Hill out the door for this trade.
