He's one that once he got a large Contract, after an outstanding year, 5 years ago .....did an Atkins & took life easy, put on weight

IMO plays for the money only .....hard no
Well getting a player like that in a contract year seems like the ideal time then right?

Especially if Murray will be back before the time we have to do anything.

If you could get McDonald on an annual Contract .....great

He just looks as if the desire isn't there anymore .....he's currently behind Brown & Van Rooyen .....so he's really struggling

Totally fair.

I get the desire thing too. I've said earlier today I don't see him as a forward, and feel like his body language has screamed that for years. Which is probably what you've also seen.

Feel like he's always looked like a defender lost in the forward line. Which is why I'd like to see him head back to defence.

If we can trade him in for steak knives (and maybe if MFC pay some of his wage) it would a risk worth taking for me.
 
PlayStation time

Delist: Hamill (to rookie list), Crouch, Hately
Retire: Sloane
Leave via FA: Doedee (Band 3 compo)

Trade NM 2nd and Doedee compo for Flanders and a later pick (Coll 3rd)
Trade Coll 3rd for stop gap KPD like Melican or Tomlinson

Draft:
Adel 1st: Ryley Sanders (Tasmanian midfielder, 185cm) or Darcy Wilson (Vic C wing with mid potential, 185cm)
GC 2nd: Kade De La Rue (Vic C mid/fwd, 184cm) or Koen Sanchez (WA fwd/mid, 176cm)

you mean delist Sloane, he's retiring as much as he chose to hand over the captaincy.
 
You have two POV's on experience over youth

1. North Melb / Haw .....rip the bandaid, go to the bottom and stink it up

2. Get a balance of experience & youth .....be competitive .....youth learn from on-field leaders & playing games, where there's a winning chance

With all the picks NORTH have received, throw GCS in as well .....they're youth still fails to develop ....you can't develop youth, getting walloped every week

With players now getting to 50+ games .....the need for experienced players like Sloane is diminished .....the youth are creating their own culture now ......I'm talking 2024 ....was a different scenario in 2022

why do t you use Carlton and Melbourne as the examples anymore? Was all the rage a few years ago.

I could have used them ....didn't CARL though, go for 2nd hand experienced hacks ....I know MELB went the youth route .......fancy making 2nd year players joint Capt's ......it destroyed their careers.

You can still use them. They took more than a decade to rebuild, and did numerous spluttering restarts.
 
Brandon Zerk Thatcher from Essendon as a KPD target? out of contract this year.

don't know much about him other than he is from SA and has played 17 out of 18 games this year.

I only see two reasons to smile. Anyone know what the third reason is?
Murphy gets two years?

Surely, he only gets 1 with a view to delist him at the end of the year.

He is having a career best season where he has deserved to be dropped for over half of it. He surely comes out for Rachele this week.

The list of un-signed is pretty thin now.

Crouch is playing himself into another year.

I would re-sign McAdam. Let Doedee explore FA.

Move on Hately, McPherson, Brown, Newchurch (Seedman, McAsey already gone).

Promote Borlase.

Hopefully Sloane retires, perhaps a move to the rookie list at best.

Put Hamill, Sholl on the trade table.
 
"Trio" but only 2 players discussed. Typo or is there another to come?
