Frawley wants out clearly and do you blame him? I agree that steps have been taken to rectify our culture issues, but that doesn't mean that the issues arnt still there... We have a long way to go yet...Also... I'd say our club would have kept plodding along pretending that there where no issues, if the AFL didnt step in... So it's a bit of a stretch to say we've gone out of our way to fix these issues...

We'd be crazy not to inquire, he was instrumental in the Roos form turn around...

Andrew Gaff?

why? This is exactly the type of assistance we need... The only reason its a big deal with Sydney, is because they have had resent premiership success and yet can still afford a player like buddy?

i doubt he lost his ability to play in that time... I'm more worried that he was playing with injury for too long... If the rumour about Neeld forcing Jurrah to punch a punching bag with injured hands are true? Then its believable to think he may have pressure Jack to play sore...

i would have thought it would be Paul Roos to coach MFC?

GWS CEO Dave Matthews was quoted in that article? He is opposed to us receiving draft assistance? And also believes that their draft tampering hasn't affect our rebuild...

We need a pre-paid COLA set up for a couple of years...

wow... This is one the most annoying, hypercritical and arrogant comments from another team I've heard in a while, considering its their draft concession and tampering that has made it unusually difficult for us to rebuild properly... GWS and the GC17 have taken the last five years of top end talent out of the draft leaving us with pittance, and then they have the gall to sit back and smugly judge our club.... GET [censored]!!

So how much is a brownlow winner worth on the trade table? Also out of interest, has any club ever traded a player straight after winning a brownlow?

i tend to agree about this... Though considering the way he was appointed, I'd say the AFL is giving the orders rather than PJ... Apart of me is glad that they've taken over, but the other part of me is worried about their intensions...

nope... I'm merely suggesting that we should all agree to not 'talk him down' while on the cusp of leaving... Recruiters wouldn't be doing their job properly, if they didn't gather all information possible on potential recruits... Why is it crazy to think that they might browse through these pages occasionally, to get a feel for how players are valued among supporters.... If we are all running him down and suggesting we'd take anything in a trade, how does that help our chances of extracting value?

wow... This is an amazingly ignorant post... I feel embarrassed reading it...

Jeez... Some of the post here, really aren't helping us to extract any value? SMH.... Blease is a flashy player, that will definitely attract some interest... Whether you think he can play on not, running down his value probably isn't the smartest idea... Maybe one day we could use this site as a weapon... Not today though...

one of the worst?? At the moment we are the worst team ive ever seen playing AFL... I honestly don't understand the need to bully former players or current players... We can all see that most of our players aren't up to it or aren't fit enough... How is bagging the crap out of them, going to help? All it does is creates division and instability within the club... Whats happened to actually wanting our players to succeed? Change needs to start with us... The joke is on us.... About two years ago, i remember people around here bagging the crap out of Port Adelaide... They where going through a rough patch back then, and most here were taking joy in and laughing about how crap they where... Jeez... We aren't just living in glasshouses, we are living in broken glasshouses, we as a supporter base, seriously need to wash away this elitist hobnob attitude we have and start delivering some positive support to our club and players...

pfft... Whats stopping them doing the same with young Billy? Also... The AFL wont let it happen, they will change the rules to accommodate eddie....

Wow... Lol... Maybe some demonlanders should consider how wrong they were here, and then consider their judgements of our current group...

things like this don't and won't happen to Collingwood... imagining it happening is useless... They are protected by a massive shield of money and supporters... Oh and don't expect them to coff up anything descent ether, it won't happen... We will be lucky to get HL, without them(the AFL) forcing us to part with more... We'll get stood on... Im just hoping that their pillage stops at Clark...

wow!!

This thread is sad and embarrassing... Wines isn't the only reason Port won last night... He is one player out of a team, that is performing well... I also doubt he'd be able to perform as well playing for us...

I'm wondering how long before they drop the merger/relocation package in front of us... Can't be long now, surely...

wish our players were this passionate...lol...

lol... You say that as if it hasn't happened before...

I wonder how long its going to take before we see a "lets trade Petracca" thread... Or a "Brayshaw is too slow" thread...lol... The annual draftee hype around these boards is rediculas... Surely we have learnt from our passed mistakes? What makes these hyped up draftees different from previous years? Pffft...

It would seriously hurt to see him clear 15 games in his first season at the pies... But.. It seems a reasonable deal... Hey maybe we could get Harry to give Mitch a morality speech, on the way passed...lol...
