Re: Zach Merret....?????????

This almost feels like a play to get his contract so big that it squeezes someone else out.

To bring it back to the original question, who would we draft with picks 7&8. https://www.afl.com.au/news/1195410/cal-twomeys-phantom-form-guide-top-draft-prospects-august-ranking/amp Looking through this phantom guide, I think we would be stoked with any of the mids from the top 10 here. I woul...

IF decide to let Membrey go perhaps him and a 3rd for a 2nd and add 3 players inside 35
Membrey is a delisted free agent for life.
If he is uncontracted (like he is now) he can walk to anyone for no cost. We would get nothing but a free list spot if he leaves.

Re: Lukosius

I’m actually a big fan of going for Lukosius. His salary would be massive for 2 years, as his contract was backended, but it may mean we could get him for less. GC need points for next year I hear. Future 2nd (let’s face it, future 1st) plus take on his salary. I’m sold. I think it would be a bargain.

I’m disappointed.
They let it slip to only 370%.
This means we are only 2nd in the ladder behind GWS with 800%.

You children under 70 probably didn't see Roger Moore in his famous role in the TV series "The Saint". The stick figure with a halo was the emblem of the show. I suspect that the show is now so old that the stick figure is out of copyright and can be used free. I’m assuming you are joking...

I supposed he didn’t need to.
He was uncontracted in 3 games time.

Re: Sub Rule……..

Garcia sat on the bench all game, because no one needed to come off, and the game was completely in our control.
We also had the luxury knowing if he wasn’t used, he could get a full game the next day at Sandy, which he did.

What makes him a free agent this year.
He is 21. Unless he was delisted at some point of his career, he won’t be a free agent.

He barracks for Essendon. He isn’t just making stuff up.
