Retire / Trade / Delist

We will probably need to use the MSD to pick up another tall, especially if we have a few injuries in this area and end up drafting mainly midfielders. Surely, there will be a number of tall players who haven't had much opportunity to play in 2021, especially in Victoria. Many clubs used the PSD in this way a few months ago.
there are a couple of youngish talls that fit the bill.
I'd hope that we recruit at least one into our VFL squad so that we can get a good look at for the season. If needed he'll be ready at the MSD

We did that with Jonathon Marsh and the Aints poached him from us

nice work Yinnar.. the sausage mention relates to a mate of mine saying he remembers the incident started when a norf player tried to steal a sausage..!
someone should bring this up to King on Fox one day... 'hey Kingy, do you remember...'

kebabs

Although a sausage does get a mention.
Interesting reading the court records, Pagan gave a reference for Fridge Roberts but not for King.

Yer, good find YT. Disgraceful episode by King and co. Is this indicative of his character - not his only breach of laws either?

'The court heard the trio abused Mr Coskun, 24, for being too slow and that the "*smile* kebabs" he served were too expensive. ... one man took a sausage from the warmer, wanting the sausage free. When Mr Coskun asked for the sausage to be purchased or returned, a scuffle ensued.
King's lawyer, Brian Bourke, said his client had represented his state and country as a footballer and earned more than $100,000 a year.'


Seriously? Quite happy his tenure at RFC as an AC was not for that long! More suited to Murdoch media at Fox?
 
We selected Biggy from their academy.
But I would much rather we just pick best available without playing games
I think Biggy shows promise yet. However, I do think clubs have memories for when another pinches a player or asset from them unannounced.

I think RFC does. This as evidence and a swift response to another scavenger club - Norf and CCJ. So we grab Tarrant.

*smile* off wannabes!

If you listen to our recruiters they rank every player in the draft . They pick on that basis but they do in the later picks look at needs. Biggy would have been the highest ranked KP player on that list.
We also picked Cumberland in that same draft from the lions academy

not much to be gained by trying to get back at another club.
We grabbed Tarrant because he is more solid than an injury-risk Talia.
If it was the other way round and Tarrant didnt pass our medical but Talia did, then we'd have grabbed the crow.
CJ wouldnt have been part of the decision

North have delisted Jared Polec who still has 2 more years of his contract to run but they will look at rookie listing him back on. That recruiting drive a few years ago of Tyson, Polec and Jasper Pittard was a huge success…..

How does that work?
If he has 2 years of contract left - than surely he should be entitled to claim full payment?

That's a risk, someone else could snap him up before them.
