Contract List

[thegeneral01]

I have it on good authority that as much as a lot of people around here want Knights back, he is done unfortunately. Body is shot

 

[Disco]

Do you reckon Knights will go on?

I reckon he will retire because of injury. ???

Personally I don't. I just listed him because they may offer a one year deal.

Bum.
Hopefully it's not so bad.
If that's the case: C Ellis will hopefully play 26 AFL games next year.

 

[Rancey18]

Knights' body definitely looked shot on Sunday in the VFL.

 

[Tigerfan]

If we just need three for the draft
Newy foley and Knights (if he is unable to continue).

We want to upgrade lambert so there's another one.
We want a free agent and Motlop (trade) so there's two and three.

I'm not opposed to us trading a player (or a Pick and player for an earlier pick).
Ps: with maric and hampson out of contract next year Id expect we'd use the next twelve months getting a good 200cm player like a Jacobs type to come over to us for 2017.

Arnott and Thomas will free up two rookie spots for Knights and Petterd to be demoted to the rookie list. :hihi

If the draft is as crap as the pundits are saying it is then thats not a bad result in regard to depth.

Gordon has to go surely.

Definitely sounds that way based on the VFL report.

"Chris Knights (28 disposals, seven marks, five inside-50s)
Struggled a bit with his body, but still managed to rack up the disposals. Also was strong in and around the contest with his tackling pressure. Needs his body to be moving well, however, if he is to push hard for senior selection."

I thought that was just Craig. :hihi

 

[seven]

Deledio will be our 4th oldest player next year?! :shakehead

Yep, seems like only yesterday the fab 4 recruits photo graced the papers.

Lids, Tambling, Meyer and Patterson

That report indicates he's still got something to contribute.

 

[Stylo]

Not to me. Just can't get his body right.

 

[pessimistic_]

im confident grimes will resign

very worried about Vlad

 

[Tigerfan]

[DDT please don't keep re-posting deleted posts. I appreciate all the work you do but I messaged you with a reminder we're not allowed to link to official afl sites other than the RFC one but didn't get a reply and you're still using them. The rule applies to all of us. Thanks.]

 

[Tigerfan]

I didn't know you were deleting them

I thought there was a recurring error

If you look you'll notice I amended newman and Knights to non afl sites (except richmond.com)

Apart from edwards

I can't find anything on him

Can you put it back?
