According to footywire Hunter’s contract is up this year. There’s so much smoke about him and his cultural impact he must be gone.
Billings and Spargo contracted to the end of 2025.
Spargo is a Goodwin favourite, can’t see him going unless Spargo wants to go. It’s not like he was not played this year, he was injured. Potentially he wasn’t happy with how his injury was managed.
Who would want Billings? The team is sorely lacking midfield depth now anyway. I can’t see him getting chopped.

Spargo wanted to go to North last year.
Wouldn’t surprise me if it comes up again. Should know after exit interviews.
Should never have drafted Hunter in the first place. Had disaster written all over it.1 of the many reasons we are in no mans land. As a coach, you are not allowed to have favourites.

Hunter. Fn walking disaster that blokeCam or Lachie?
You can only imagine that was North pursuing Spargo last year.Spargo wanted to go to North last year.

Lachie then. And no, we traded for him IIRC.Hunter. Fn walking disaster that bloke
Correct. After his last offseason I'd be absolutely gobsmacked if he's on our list moving forward.Lachie then. And no, we traded for him IIRC.
Must de-list him now.
Which we should do ASAP.
I don’t mind a bit of faith and backing in a player through a short dip in form.1 of the many reasons we are in no mans land. As a coach, you are not allowed to have favourites.
I think most coaches have favourites. It's just that our coach have spuds as his favouritesI don’t mind a bit of faith and backing in a player through a short dip in form.
But that’s not how Goodwin and co operate. Agree that the automatic in, impossible to get dropped players are not good for selection integrity and team harmony.
Spargo isn’t quite that level of favourite. He’s more on the Tom Soarrow level of favourite.
Salem is the elite favourite level. Clarry too this year. Petty the same.

Savage! Surely an established player who has performed for years can have a run of two or three poor games before they feel real selection pressure.I do. Need to show no mercy as a coach. Otherwise players can take a cm and take it to a KM
And that's why Goody is a weak coach. He lets it go to that extent.Savage! Surely an established player who has performed for years can have a run of two or three poor games before they feel real selection pressure.
It’s when they stink it up for months on end (Petty, Clarry, Fritsch to a lesser extent who was awful aside from kicking goals for long periods) but don’t appear to be under pressure that I have an issue.
Could be really innovative. Why stop at 6-8? 60 year contract offer incoming.4 years, bah, going to have to do better than that West Coast, youre going up against the kings of ridiculous contracts, we'll be offering 6-8 years.
