Maybe if people didn't have such a thirst for gossip and drama, people wouldn't resort to making up bad rumors.

Yeah I thought what I wrote sounded a bit off.
Absolutely,I agree, his stopping roles were top shelf.
What I meant was, I think he was instructed to focus on purely stopping. Considering the obvious talent,skillset and I.Q he showed this year, I predict his role gets expanded past a pure lock down role next season.

Wasn't it because of the mismanagement of his quad injury this year?
something serious needs to change in his life from all accounts. If that's circle of 'friends' or whatever it is , this young man is in strife it would seem if he doesn't get things right in life life NOW. Good luck to him as this seems pretty full on
Pretty unprecedented situation but interesting question. The known legal contract and trades executed are the starting point you would have to think but I aint no Legal Eagle
Golumless
A bigger deal out west.
Was a pretty extreme undersell of Max's season.
That's certainly the next challenge. To push away from a stopper to someone who can hurt both ways. Could take years for MM to get there as well as it tends towards being a slow process if you don't start with it.
Mods can we boot anyone who mentions COVID / vaccines etc? this is a footy thread

This is fine by me but the first post should have been reported and removed if that's the case. It's been sitting there all day.

C4[2]Yo`DooR Any word on pick 7 salary dump trade? Do we no longer need it now that MFC have annouced Petty is staying?
Mismanagement? McAdam has always had major issues with professionalism off the field. He’s not just unlucky with the amount of soft tissue injuries he picks up.
Just before the 2019 season, the club couldn’t find McAdam, this is why he was suddenly listed as ‘managed’ on the injury list. When I mean couldn’t find him, he just stopped coming to the club all of a sudden and no one could get hold of him for a few days (nothing suspicious, I believe he may have just gone home). He then ended up pinging a calf in a SANFL trial against Port a couple of weeks later (surprise surprise due to poor conditioning).

I’ve heard nothing further sorry, but I’ll keep you posted.
I think the Crows are in an arms race for pick 7 to get ahead of Carlton (who are desperately trying to land pick 8) to get first dibs on Sanders.
Caro confirmed on AA Oliver hospital visit is "mental health " related.
Dees probably correct in saying he hit his head. Which can be done when you collapse. Needing the CT and X-ray to clear physical damage after having his stomach pumped.
Or maybe he was cleaning Gawn's gutters as a thankyou gesture and fell off the ladder.
It was a pretty dramatic fall, needing an ambulance and taken to a public hospital before alerting his club doctor.
Think we dodged a bullet here. Although Dees holding him to his contract, coupled with the way they shamed him probably a tipping point.
Him coming to us, working with someone he trusts in Burgo could have been a real life changing moment for him.

I wonder if they'll reconsider it now for his own wellbeing.
It’s a hypothetical because the trade never took place.
But “caveat emptor”. AFL players don’t come with a warranty.
Remember Chris Yarran? As far as I can recall Richmond gave up a first round draft pick to Carlton for him, he never played a game for the tigers.
They start us off with a W in the first round as payback for the Sydney theft.
Usually slows down leading into the weekend, then starts ramping up on Monday before Wednesday’s embargo.

Happy because we have a heap of home Friday and Saturday games or happy because we got a piss weak draw that includes double ups against all the poor sides?
I do wonder if we'll get prime time away matches at the G, like Adelaide v Collingwood on a Friday night at the G would be awesome. Probably get our ass kicked but we need that experience

How? Surely this argument can't be made with a straight face.
We have plenty of experience at getting our ass kicked.
Surprise, surprise, the AFL are going to review the F/S bidding process in time for next years draft. They’re going to screw us again.
