Loch Mactaggart it isPretty much couple of mids I’d be happy with late but watch us swing for some bloke I’ve never heard of at 44
I don't disagree (though I don't know that I agree whole-heartedly, either. It's hard to know without knowing what we gave the players to keep them.)Does anyone else get the sense that we were a little too trigger happy locking away players to long-term contracts, possibly on slightly inflated salaries given we were flying at the time we were announcing our re-signings? Only for the players to ultimately get shown up in the GF.
Given we were inactive over the trade period and offloaded Parker and konstanty. We are either stacking salary cap to pay Chad a kings random at the end of next year or have a trade target in mind.
I just feel as though we FOMO'd when stocks were at their peak and may have overvalued the players we currently have.
When KB went to watch the Whitlock's than when he discovered LK.Thought I'd try to summarise info I'd seen over the past few months re. Swans/draft:
- We're only likely to have three ND picks - is this still the case with Parks and Konstanty gone?
- KB said on Gettable that he'd been to see the Whitlocks at Murray vs Sandy game
- According to The Age (back in May), we'd interviewed Noah Mraz
- We've also interviewed Harry Armstrong, but seems now out of our range
- Have interviewed Luke Kennedy
- Charlie McCartin - not sure where that situation sits?
- KB keen on Tom Murphy, but might not be available; KB also keen on Jack Henderson from Werribee
No current season stats available
Am I going mad or was it not announced somewhere that Francis was staying next year?I find it interesting that Aaron Francis is apparently still without a contract for next season.
It may be we simply can't agree terms, but I wonder if we have our eye on a potential DFA and that is the hold up?
According to SEN players still uncontracted at other clubs;
Coll; Ned Long, Reef McInnes
Freo; Tom Emmett, Odin Jones, Max Knobel
Geel; Patrick Dangerfield, Mitch Duncan, Rhys Stanley (I assume all 3 will re-contracted).
GWS; Josh Fahey
Haw; Josh Bennetts
Melb; Marty Hore
North; Cooper Harvey, Charlie Lazzaro, Blake Drury
Port; Logan Evans
Rich; Kamdyn McIntosh, Mate Colina (to be re-listed after the draft), Thomson Dow
St K; Ben Paton, Jack Hayes, Tim Membrey, Olli Hotton
WCE; Luke Edwards
Hardly a stellar bunch (and obviously excludes players already delisted).
Ben Paton could be brought in as a lockdown small and Lazzaro has impressed me when I've seen him at AFL/VFL level.
(I'm not really expecting others to agree with me on the latter).
FWIW DFA period commences 1 November.
EDIT; And as I was typing Lazzaro has just been delisted.
Report on AFL website a couple of weeks ago we were negotiating a 1-year extension, but nothing confirmed yetAm I going mad or was it not announced somewhere that Francis was staying next year?
You've never , but others might
Or it's already been done and the club just hasn't announced it yet maybeReport on AFL website a couple of weeks ago we were negotiating a 1-year extension, but nothing confirmed yet
Perhaps will finalise after the draft?
Well we are still waiting for any official announcement about Buller, so highly likelyOr it's already been done and the club just hasn't announced it yet maybe
Pryor worth a shot from the lions
Better than francis
