Coleraine FNC is looking for senior footballers and netballers in 2018. Based in the South West District Football Netball league (Hamilton and Portland area of Western Victoria), the club is seeking interest from any player looking for an opportunity to play football/netball in 2018 with...
It was brought up before that these sentiments were too 'club orientated' and not considerate of player welfare. I don't know when the shift occurred but I reckon it should be about the clubs first. Players come and go, clubs shouldn't. Clubs should be able to do whatever they need to to ensure...
Big risk to take though letting it get to the PSD stage. If they can't get an ESS/STK deal done, Carlton will surely reassess their stance before the draft goes ahead. Despite what they indicate their plans are now, their board will still look at Carlisle as a ready made option with youth on his...
If he goes into PSD, you won't get him. Carlton are waiting with baited breath if he's on the table. Nothing surer. A 23 yo key swingman to replace Henderson with an early pick is a steal for them.
Not at all, but I don't reckon you'll come out on top in this one. I reckon you'll pay overs. But that happens to a number of clubs each year. Look at how we got unders for Ryder last year, you wear it and hope you get on the good end of the stick next time.
Am I missing something here? Has there been some QLD team picked I don't know of or do these players not make 'your' QLD team? Some great players getting overlooked here otherwise
Do they really? I don't think anyone would be too surprised if this was Essendon's tactic. Most clubs would hold out for the best deal if they had a week to negotiate, they don't owe St Kilda anything. Might as well drive the hardest bargain because Hawthorn is waiting in the wings. Nothing like...
I disagree a little bit on this one. If players could soley choose where they wanted to play GWS wouldnt have a team. Brisbane would be in a world of strife too.
For such a short work/career in this field (approx 8-10 years on average) I don't know that work/life balance is so affected that...
I agree, I reckon this is what will happen early next week. Pick 5 is a must but I don't want to hand over 23. Carlisle is a known quantity - more certainty than him than in an unproven 18yo in the draft. I reckon Essendon should hold out all week and strongarm St Kilda into folding. Can always...
In reality you're 100% right, but for those of us that still dream of the clubs being appropriately compensated for years of work put into developing these players (so others can benefit!), I hope we Essendon members get something worthwhile. The Ryder deal left a really sour taste
Happy for players like Carlisle to have an a opinion and nominate a club if they wish to leave their team post season, but it shouldn't really count for much. If Essendon get the best, or a better deal with another club, then they should be free to wheel and deal as they please. Asking to be...
I'll have a go at my Vic side first

2015 is over and while State of Origin in the AFL will most likely never happen again, it's still worth having a crack at putting the best 22 players from each state on a whiteboard together. Who gets in your teams?
Yeah fair enough, to be honest of all the jumper monikers the lion is probably the best any way. Maybe the mongram is a bridge too far. I would love to see the old colours retained tho
There is something prestigious about guernseys that don't use their moniker in the jumper design I reckon, I mean, I like the jumpers that rely on colours and pattern/design to sell the brand (grass roots style)- I think club monikers should be used for marketing, not matchwear. I would love to...
How good would it be to just see the Brisbane lions wear Fitzroy colours away (predominantly red) and Brisbane Bears colours (Predominantly yellow) in Brisbane. 2 teams recognised, equal share, colours please both crowds. Throw in a hybrid monogram and bobs your uncle. As an impartial supporter...
