No, Mal is off to GC17 or staying in Sydney. Replace with DFA James Gwilt.

He can be as competitive as he wants, he still goes at the ball one-handed in marking contests and shirked tackles during games I saw him play in 2014. He has a great body shape...if he can add 10kg of muscle.

would walk into our midfield.

once for every turnover?

slobbo is a complete moron. he can't even follow a basic run-down ffs.

he got out of answering the question beautifully.

"a lot gets talked about...first and foremost, he's contracted..." deflect, deflect, deflect.

he's not an underachiever, and he's signed a new deal with meth coke during the year, i believe?

very interested to hear what roos says on 360 in a couple of minutes.

Think he might be a bit slow and his hamstrings won't allow him to play midfield at afl level. No idea what his disposal is like.

You've gotta be kidding. McKernan is a spud.

Motlop, Duncan or Christensen please. However, they're far more likely to offer up Smedts, at best, or their third or fourth round pick. Whilst Mitch had the capability to be a star, again, his value is ridiculously low. It's why we are likely to get far less for him than he's worth to us, which is what makes me so angry that we are going to lose him for way unders.

I'm utterly sick of this doctor's orders bollocks being bandied around. I don't care where he goes - collingwood, Geelong, Timbuktu - the fact of the matter is that a player who was just about our best player and certainly most highly rewarded and regarded player last time he was injury free has abandoned us and we're getting so very little for him. It's not like he's leaving for 'home' of wa either or another unsuccessful club in need of a a key forward - he's going to a powerhouse. Being a feeder club sucks.

My god, can you imagine the furore if Sydney all of a sudden has pick 1? They can't even give their pick 19 etc back cos that's reserved for Isaac Heeney...who's probably the best midfielder in the draft.

Eek. Conca is awful. No thanks.

you don't need to read when you can see a number with six zeroes coming after it as your standard salary for the next five plus years.

liam anthony apparently set to be delisted by the kangas. only played 4 games this year, not many last year, after a pretty impressive 2009-2012.

yes, excellent point. (although, in saying that, i'd prefer bombers continue with their 'wingard or wines' route and ryder uses the clause to walk for free just to screw the peptides!)

Don't be silly! Northern markets need protection!!

Swans by 13. McGlynn for the medal.

i actually think he handled the clark question and the dangerfield question perfectly. some of the way that other coaches and players have behaved with wantaway players this impending off-season - grand final still to come, ffs! - has been disgraceful.

All those players were on the downward slide, of their career - did any play more than three seasons for their second club? Thanks to free agency players are able to move when they should be entering the peak of their career. I loathe free agency.

I'd like Andrew Moore from Port, and probably Ben Newton and Kane Mitchell too. We need midfield depth and all three would do it, but I doubt Port would want anyone from our list nor particularly late draft picks either.

Melbourne have been chasing Shiel for upwards of three end of seasons now. He's long been rumoured to want to return home - a la Tyson - and Melbourne have the package (ie high end draft picks) to get it done. Kid is a gun.

Pick 16 and Butcher plus Moore would just about be overs for them. They're only interested in players cos they're worried about players being suspended by asada.
