That's a bit shit Jimmy. Football life is weird. If I'm getting paid 200k a year (what was he on?), I'm attending the exit interview even if it's bad news.

I agree with that, I think he's worth having as depth though, injuries happen and if we got him cheap as nobody really wanted him, that's a good deal until 2026, IMO.
Yes we need list spots though!

Swings and roundabouts
Some decisions go your way, some go against you. It all comes out in the wash and if you're good enough, you're good enough.
We weren't. The end.
Heck, we picked a charcoal-cooked Sloane in the 22.

This is 100 percent incorrect
Why speculate on that without a shred of evidence.
Jimmy Rowe was treated unprofessionally and lied to by the list manager (Reid) during this period, and I am not going to waste time with who the source is because you can believe me or not but that is what happened.
Sounds like a massive waste of money to replace a SANFL player, Luko needs a first 18 spot for $1mill per year.

Nah..an on-field call ie HTB is an umpiring interpretation. There is no off field review mechanism for that so you have to suck it up when you are not getting those calls and the opposition are. This was a situation that the on-field umpire absolutely had the power to pull up play and ask for a review regardless of the goal umpire guessing wrongly when he sat under it and watched it NOT hit the post.
Case in point is when the ball may have crossed the point line in play and the defending team quickly plays on, the umpire can call them back to review - exactly the same thing could have been done here.
So could of and SHOULD have been dealt with by the on-field umpire then and there when just about the entire crows team were up in arms about it. The off field technology was there, in place and able to be used and wasn't. Thats an AFL failing that were were on the wrong end of and we were never recompensed for by having the goal counted and for a Sydney side that had been under the pump all second half then having to try and manufacture a goal with under 1 minute to play to retake the lead.
Didn't somebody on BF say he was overseas when he got the text?

No wonder the Suns are trying to offload Lukosius near $1mil per year contract

Reasons for Luko not announcing his plans….
What have I missed?
- Is contracted, no reason to announce anything
- Staying at GCS, no need to announce anything
- The team he is choosing is involved in finals
- Hasn’t decided which club
- Waiting for best offers to decide
- Allows GCS to play clubs off against each other during trade week
- Has decided which club but keeping it to himself
- On holidays enjoying a break before the trade period starts
- Waiting to see what happens with other GCS trades first
- Trade week hasn’t started yet

It will be interesting to see who we let go but we seriously need to look at what we are doing list strategy wise. We can't keep signing up a bunch of guys that haven't taken us to a finals series, there needs to be some turnover

If they are taken at the same time they are absolutely useful. If you freeze it at the point that it looks like touching and the other angle gets stopped at the same point and there's daylight or its passed the post, then its logical that it hasn't hit.
"ITK" posters saying he has chosen Port Power and waiting for their season to end.

If we approached him like we apparently did to Will Day, then I am shocked he has not already yelled out its Port he wants to get to from the roof tops
He would be getting the Dawson and Rankine treatment, always been on our radar even after getting recruited by GCS.

What did I miss with our approach to Will Day? Sounds like there is a story here.
I know they’ve said ‘he’s not coming’ (I personally reckon it’s still up in the air), but who’s said he’s already chosen Port?
Don't see how he fits I'm there. They already can't play all of marshall / lord / dixon / gerogidas
