Hearing Brockman deal very close, wont go through until after the Chol trade.

Don't you mean the Pick 1 deal?

Wtf do the Eagles have over Brockman that he’d overlook a better deal from Freo?

Just seems so irrational from him given all the boxes ticked by going with Freo - including a better chance at some level of success given the Eagles rebuild.

Let's imagine for a minute you're an AFL player looking to return to Victoria and you have interest from both Geelong and Hawthorn, with Geelong having the larger and longer contract on offer. You nominate Hawthorn.

Why are you being so irrational?????!!!

AFL players just like us average joes are allowed to have preferences to where they want to go.

Which won't go through til Kosi deal happens. I.e. all done next week.

Ralph praising us? We really are in silly season now

You were told to buckle up!

If I had a choice of playing AFL in WA, I would not even consider Dockers.
As much as I very quietly barrack for them in Derby games, they are a shite club.

Speaking of Bateman, I had a beer with Chance last night. Had good chat with him. Nothing footy related.
For those interested he’s going very well, looking fit & happy

Cracker bloke, my son wore number 10 the whole time he was at Hawthorn. Got a photo and jumper signed, very happy dad educating him in the role indigenous player have at our great club. Still got the jumper only 100 sizes too small , son now 6’4!

Pick 57 & a signed/framed Jack Darling jumper

Was expecting mild turbulence not an atomic bomb

Was hoping for the framed photo of him dropping that mark in 2015

My gut feel of what happens now is:

• WCE retain pick 1
• NM retain picks 2 and 3
• We retain pick 4 and trade F1 + F2 for B Smith

Draft as follows:

1) WCE - Reid
2) GCS - Walter
3) NM - McKercher
4) NM - Duursma
5) HAW - Watson
6) WB - Curtin

This trade period is a week too long.

No to the Smith trade. That means that next year we wouldn't enter the draft until pick 40 plus. As a bottom 4 side that would be diabolical and next year's losses would be very depressing

Yep. Make it a day.

Future picks should be able to be traded all year too and bring on the mid season trading period

 

[phlogiston]

You would have complete choice as to who your employer was.

Perhaps not. My current employment contract has a non-compete clause which says I need to wait 12 months before working in certain industries or for certain companies. This is reasonably common…

And rarely enforceable for employees.

 

[phlogiston]

And rarely enforceable for employees.

Look mate I don’t want to get into a pissing contest here but I can confirm absolutely enforceable… having been on two occasions involved in said enforcement, and being stymied in moving roles once because of such a clause.

Upshot is that a general statement that any employee can go anywhere is incorrect due to restraint clauses.

• We retain pick 4 and trade F1 + F2 for B Smith

Can't trade both F1 and F2 without getting one back in those rounds. Could do F1 + Pick 32 (ironic as it is their original 2nd we got last year from Freo).
