Something smells here. Battle has said he’s looking after the future of his family. If it’s true we offered more than the apparent deal he’s accepting from Hawthorn then how does that ‘look after the future of his family’? There can only be 2 reasons why you would accept less to leave:- 1. You don’...

I hope you are right.

I'm going to guess anywhere from pick 15 to pick 30.

How does Hawthorn get Barrass if he still contracted. I think he's better than Battle.

So disappointing....

I find it hard to believe that he is going to the Dawks for less money. How does he secure his future doing that?

A bit of a kick in the guts. I hope Hawthorn get turfed out of the finals in the 1st week.

Some guy called tony implied a couple of months back that the Saints weren't budging. Tones also implied that Joshy was leaving, just for the money You got that one slightly wrong tony...on two fronts. I think we have had another think on what we're prepared to pay and I think Josh likes what he's ...

Has he gone?

Gone for lunch.

Campbell is so unlucky he’s a better ruckman than basically every bean pole kid that will be on a list next season that has so called potential. Bonner simply just a walking Clanger Van Es and Allison unlucky Geez you jumped of the Bonner bandwagon pretty quickly Curly. Back in May he was a key par...

I think it is the right decision. Interesting to see if he is picked up by another club.

I doubt it. Maybe Richmond could use him if they have a cleanout.

Yes he was a good player but maybe the game has passed him by. Unfortunately the team doesn't need him going forward.

Judd was better at West Coast.

He's starting to sound like a traitor.

It looks like a pick in the 2nd round. Meanwhile Collingwood get pick 20 for John Noble from GC.
Nth Melb get pick 3 for that spud Ben McKay.

Ideally he wants to play for Collingwood. He's a sook and Melbourne should hold him to a contract.

Lyon is an old man. Let him be the mentor, like Odin in the Thor movies. Still earn a great salary, still control the narrative in a lot of ways, but without the heavy workload. Move over and let a younger coach have a crack. During the last pre-season, he sat around the club and watched Netflix on...

Nup

Bonner maybe
Patton probably
Van es no
Allison yes
Ross yes
Keeler no

He's a better kick than Seb Ross. He's a better kick than Jack Steele., Brad Crouch....and Mich Owens Some on here are determined to downplay any decent performance by Ryan Byrnes. No one ever said he was a superstar, but give him credit for his good performances instead of the constant "Yeah,...

If Battle leaves play him at CHB.

Late?

Yeah well they do have Glenn Jacovich in there.

You could say that Marshall has had a better season than Gawn based on Footywire.

What about Liam Jones!
