What did Crouch get? Thought it was meant to have been about the same?Because it's not the same deal. In this scenario Crouch gets a lower deal

Keep on rookie list as depthWhat about Himmleberg, does he stay or does he go ?
We got thrashed in the ruck when he went in there
But snapped a nice goal at the end.
He seems better off the ground than in the air
Today should of stamped his papers. We dont need a 6'10 crumberWhat about Himmleberg, does he stay or does he go ?

I think worth keeping.What about Himmleberg, does he stay or does he go ?

I don’t see why it’s not achievable.I know it won't happen.
But imagine if we could get both Rankine and JHF.
Add an elite pure SF and elite mid plus Rachele and Thilthorpe, with the brand of Footy we played tonight.
2024 to 2030 could be fun.

I doubt bombers offered him 800k per year. If they did they are idiots. Rankine is worth about 500k per year.Here's the article I was referring too ...
AFL trade news: Essendon reportedly table “mammoth” deal to Suns gun Izak Rankine
In-form Suns forward Izak Rankine is tipped to extend his stay in Queensland, and in doing so will knock back a reported "mammoth" offer from Essendon.
The Bombers have recently emerged as keen suitors for the Gold Coast gun, who is yet to re-sign with the Suns beyond 2022.
Despite any external advances, reports suggesting Rankine will re-sign have only continued to grow, with the West Adelaide product expected to sign on the dotted line and add to his three-year career in the Sunshine State.
While a done deal is seen as imminent, 3AW's Sam McClure has revealed that Essendon have tabled a long-term deal in to Rankine, hoping to shift his attention to a potential move to Victoria.
“Izak Rankine is staying at Gold Coast which is great news for them,” McClure said.
“The Bombers were hugely interested in him and depending who you talk to… there'd be people up north saying Essendon offered a huge and mammoth five-year deal to Izak Rankine.
“$800,000 per season are the numbers that have been thrown around when you talk to clubs and industry figures, but Essendon are adamant that is not correct.
“It’s always difficult to know what is right and what is beaten up – particularly when a player has told a club he is not coming – so it’s all hard to know but all I can say is Izak Rankine is going to stay at the Gold Coast Suns which is really good news.”

Would spend 800 on a mid or a decent ruck. I just wouldn't spend 800 on Rankine. He's a good player but he can go missing. Most of the supposed figures bandied around in the media are wrong.Wouldn’t hesitate to pay Rankine $650k if that moved him. Easily worth that

There's no such thing as a super sub role, ffs.He wasn't even dropped looks like you were wrong again ... playing the super sub role as per last week .
Truth Efficiency is way down in Wayne's World
The compensation formula was set AFTER Frawley.Well that too. There’s a “formula” that seems to get applied depending on who the club is.
See Frawley resulting in pick 3 for Melbourne in 2014.
Sounds like complete fiction to me.If I have learned anything this season, there will be wholesale list changes so Nicks can make it seem it was the players fault. Watch this space, but my prediction is three or more of who are scapegoated out at the end of the year become really good long term players at their new clubs. Who will be higher than us on the ladder and play finals.
183cm doesn't really put him in this classificationMichael Voss springs to mind.

Sometimes you have to throw a bit more out there to attract them.I doubt bombers offered him 800k per year. If they did they are idiots. Rankine is worth about 500k per year.
Pretty much spot on, IMOThe best 22 for 2023 is really starting to take shape I think.
B: Doedee - Butts - Parnell
HB: Smith - Murray - Worrell
C: Dawson - Schoenberg - Soligo
HF: Rachele - Walker - Keays
F: McAdam - Thilthorpe - Fogarty
R: O’Brien - Laird - Berry
Int: Jones - Milera - Hamill - Pick 4
The others:
Seedsman (slots straight in if we can get him fit)
Cook (if this was constructed on talent alone, he’s be in the first 8 players picked. Needs to develop toughness and consistency of effort. Will be best 18 once he does those things)
McHenry (relegated to depth player as others rise)
Hinge (right on the fringe)
Z Taylor (big preseason will see him pressing claims early on)
McPherson (depth only)
Brown (2023 will be his last year on the list, and he’ll be depth only)
Himmelberg (1 year deal, only plays if one of Fog, Tex or Thilthorpe are inj)
McAsey (depth only, until we trade him for pick 50)
Murphy (relegated to depth player as others rise)
Gollant (hard to fit him in unless we play Thilthorpe as a no.1 ruck, or an injury strikes McAdam, Tex or Fog)
Hately (depth only)
Sloane (pressing claims by Round 6-8 but we cannot get sucked in to playing him as an inside mid)
Pedlar (tbh I don’t see him making it, but stranger things have happened I guess. He’s not going to be in our best 30 to start the season though)
Nankervis (should debut in 2023. Has some exciting traits)
Newchurch (if he’s still on the list, it would be great to see him played for a block of 4 games to see if he has what it takes)
Strachan (would keep as a rock solid backup ruck option)
Rowe (if he gets another contract, he’s depth only)
All of Crouch (traded), Sholl (traded), Frampton (delisted or traded to Collingwood), Borlase (delisted), Davis (delisted), Turner (delisted or permanent SANFL player) will likely be gone.
You always want to buy the worst house on the best street because of the untapped potential. Rankine has a very high ceiling as a player but is yet to show it on anything like a consistent basis. The glimpses are what tease and what coach would not want a crack trying to get the best out of such a talent. Thats why the numbers to try and tempt him will be high as teams will want himHe’s worth Dawson money or more to you?
If Amon is being offered $650K by Hawthorne., Rankine is much better and better upside. The Amon money is crazy for a very average footballer.I doubt bombers offered him 800k per year. If they did they are idiots. Rankine is worth about 500k per year.
Solid B- grade footballer getting offered more money than a solid B+ grade footballer in B.Crouch? Unlike Carlton, the Hawks aren't known to be this stupid in overpaying players so I say that amount is fake news.If Amon is being offered $650K by Hawthorne., Rankine is much better and better upside. The Amon money is crazy for a very average footballer.
