I waited 40 odd years for a Premiership in my lifetime.

On the cusp of which signs?

All this crap, speculating if Smith or Oliver are joining Geelong.
Oliver emptied his locker at Dees + Brad Green embarrassed himself on Xitter.
Simply look for obvious signs!
Compare these photos. . .
It’s blatantly clear Smith is growing shaved bits, to join Geelong’s ‘Headband Guns’!
What more proof do you need?

Probably the player's manager, when Smith starts getting antsy enough to call an employment lawyer, who starts saying the right magic words that result in things like the Bosman rule

Oh! You can laugh all you like, Sttew
Meanwhile, at Advanced Hair “Yeah! Yeah!“
Oliver’s transformation was completed!

Probably in the last hour.
Erm, the same is true of Cameron and Dangerfield.

That the public knows
It wouldn’t be broadcasted to the media and would be more behind the scenes actions than a public move imo

The AFL stepped in with meditation between GC & Essendon when talks broke down on a trade for Josh Caddy when he was trying to return home due to his father's reported health battles - Essendon seemingly dealing in good faith with 1 x first round & 2 x contracted players, GC not accepting anything
The AFL stepped in to help negotiate a deal but one couldn't be struct

Did the AFL step in for Gaz’s trade all those years ago ? I remember the GC being being stonewall despite the family tragedy that occurred at the time …not to mention the cretin Gold Coast supporters who were very vocal against the move despite what happened.
One of the main reasons I have a burning hatred for that club

Monday morning on BF + many of us are:
Barrett perpetuating nonsense
Bartel is the voice of reason
Old mate on right fails “Gotcha’
Cornes ‘angry ruthless man’ attempt
Barrett

"That is a very real and strong possibility."
Why Bailey Smith could be headed for the national draft as the Cats and Dogs remain at loggerheads.

Honestly ..how would we know. One drives on the road each day … a people go thru traffic lights when going green to amber to red. Its a fine line bewteen the two choices. Id be all for Free Agents contracts being made public and an explansion of why they feel into which band …. but id agree , one gets the feeling that its a tool that the afl like to have in their back pocket as …I think they dread the idea of of someone somewhere forcing the issue. Could RFA compared to UFA stand up in court? Its prejudice based on what some one is being paid? The Ablett one is a bit unusual as probably all three clubs probably won from what might have been AFL manipulation.

Thats a guess based on if a club would take Smith in preference to the young talent …. there is the other criteria …as he would nominate a wage. Some clubs would have space but some might want the three years on min chips that a draftee offers.
The irony is the always say that Free Agency was brought in because of the Ball situation. at stk …but Ball had only played 7 seasons , and would not have qualified. Even if it was one more …. StK might have matched (if he was in the top 25% of wage)

Yes, speculation to garner some hype for the underwhelming trade period so far
Yes, they stepped in to mediate, but the "threat to take to court and blow the entire trade system up" is a BigFooty staple since I first joined and has yet never happened.
