Trade talk 2019/20

The AFL want to keep the game in the Media. Hence the whole beat up around it.

Its a poor imitation of the EPL and NFL processes where the governing body and indeed the players have a far more mature and commercial appreciation of the inputs which have to come together for a player trade process.

I really dislike the AFL trade period.

According to Fox Footy, min list size next year 37 and max of 43 including rookies.
TPP to go down by 10% and up to each club how they handle that - i.e. not a 10% across the board reduction in all contracts.

If the reports are true dogs will get treloar for 5 years at 600 a year (pies pay 300 a year)

Then dogs have done exceptionally well.

They get a very good player on good player money and pies play a man down in a cap sense for 5 years. 5 years!

Well done doggies

I cant see Pies being competitive for 20 years with the grundy/cox/degoey/treloar debacle.

I reckon grundy is spent; the most promising of their youth punted himself to north; and their remaining father-son youth is way overrated.

bulldogs want collingwood to pay $300,000 of the contract for the 5 years.
Collingwood might baulk at the idea of paying 1.5 million.
But boy, wow-wee what a *smile* up by the pies if they do.

have they resigned deGoey?
Harry, its impossible for Collingwood to sign Degoey if Treloar & Stephenson stay unless it’s over the top heavily back ended, how do you think that would go down??....lol
Massive internal issues at the Pies...
I’m very hesitant to post this but what the heck, Got told last night that the Tigers and Bulldogs are up to something creative. Not specifically a deal between clubs but they are both being very quiet & coy, something might surprise tonight as minor or major it could be.

Could Richmond be trying to move up in this year’s draft.
 
What an absolute debacle at the pies. They look like paying 400-500k per year for players not on the list. If the Stephenson deal happens, him becoming a star at another club while they are still paying him would be nice.

Yeah apparently they owe Dangerfield a flag and he deserves one. It would be a football tragedy if he didn't get one. No one deserves a flag more than Dangerfield.

It's all about Danger down at Geelong. Danger, Danger, Danger.

Loving the cats commentary Ridley, cracking me up.
