Someone help me cope here: what reason would Cumming have to not nominate a club at this point unless that club were still in finals.
 
Rumour from the Blues board that Crows have offered a late pick for Matthew Kennedy (Pick 42)

Kennedy was subbed out in the elimination final, and the relationship with the club is considered over. Has been told by the Blues they're happy for him to explore his options, can walk for nothing next year.
We don't have the list spots available so it seems unlikely
 
He was out of contract so doesn't really help us...
The question is will GC lose anyone to free agency. If they do then they would prefer to trade for Himo so they don’t lose the compo. We obviously are in the same boat if we get Cumming, so in those circumstances Himo could become part of a trade for Luko.

Interesting times ahead for us this year.

I would hope not
 
Bizarre that some clubs are offering a 7 year deal for a back pocket role player like Perryman but only a four year deal for Cumming
We did bid on Perryman IIRC, and you're being unkind classing him solely as a back pocket, he's a genuine utility, played half back, forward and midfield as a junior, great composure under pressure and a genuine dual sided player. I doubt very much Perryman will be utilised as a back pocket wherever he lands.

The compo we would get for EH means it's not worth worrying about.. Suns don't even have anyone that is likely to net them a pick they would use
 
They push Luko out for Dragon..... couldnt make this stuff up
How does Himmelberg genuinely think he’s a better chance of playing regular AFL at GCS????

Behind King, Walter, Andrew etc surely he’s further down the pecking order there than he is here!

🤯

He's played AFL for 8 years, GWS have tried him all over the park and settled on him as a back pocket as his best position. I don't think where he played as a junior is relevant any more, like it isn't for Chayce Jones

He's not a bad player, he's just average. But a 7 year contract, really?

"Wanting to play more senior football" is just manager speak for "my client is accepting the largest monetary offer to prolong his career"

Pretty sure Chol left lol. His ability to ruck gives him some chance... not a lot though. Doubt Hardwick will put up with his shit

Honestly I do not mind this
I read some earlier posts about him being too slow and even though this may be the case he’s talented and only 27
