If Papley isn't fixated on a single club I can see it being a good fit. Think they've done almost as well as we have in stabilising their public image - while they've had a couple of really poor performances, they've also absolutely belted a couple of decent sides as well, something we haven't been able to do.
North will have a slightly better pick than ours, and if they're offering a player like Mason Wood as well that probably trumps what we'd be willing to package up. If Papley really wants to come back to Victoria, and Sydney are prepared to hold them to his contract if they don't get a satisfactory deal, then he may be happy to let a few clubs barter for him.
I understand that but, correctly me if I’m wrong the ONLY free agent that publicly has announced I’m going, has been Tom Lynch & even he didn’t announce it was Richmond until day 1 of free agency opened.
History shows us it will be nothing but rumours and media speculation until day 1 of free agency.
Not even close

You can't kick goals when you're unconscious.
We are ready. We have a solid foundation of youth. We need the cream on top.
You're kidding yourself if you think money isn't a factor for the majority of players.
You're also kidding yourself if you think changing clubs under free agency changes whether they play their heart out for the team.
Key example - Eddie Betts played his heart and soul for the Blues. Took his performances to another level at Adelaide.

Caro is well known to frequent and post on BF.
No sorry was saying if he had decided to re-sign with GWS we might hear about it next week (agree if he leaves won't be until at least after GWS out of finals)
Whoops my apologies. In my defence I am working, so concentration split

Yeah agreed. If he signs GWS announce it the same day. Motivation for team mates for finals, supporters etc.
*If* they win first round of finals and he doesn't sign that week, he's 99% gone surely.
Gaff didn't commit to West Coast until AFTER the Grand Final...although GWS have been open about pushing him for a decision ASAP so they probably wouldn't be prepared to wait as long as West Coast were.

The Carlton crew would've sorted this out in no time a few years back...

GWS haven't kicked a goal in the last half of either of their last two games. In rotten form heading in to finals. Hopefully it's harming their chances of keeping Coniglio, especially with Carlton showing so much improvement since Teague took over.

AFL will not let gws get screwed If he leaves. They will try and manipulate the highest compensation. GWS will match %100
They were happy for lynch to go tigers for free as their competition was high, pick 3? Tigers two first rounders last year and this year were too low.

How are they not then
Maybe more..
Hmm so what does this mean?
That it's 'more' than Gil's 'influence' contributing to his decision making process? Eg Gil finding some AFL money or pressuring GWS to up their offer from the salary cap
Well he's just ocnfirming that if he leaves GWS its to come to us, no the Hawks. So now all we need to worry about is the Corrupt AFL and how far they'll go to meddle in clubs' affairs.I love how b70 plays with everyone’s emotions,” likey staying” and then minutes later “ is coming if he leaves lol
It's still all horse shit.
GC are a basketcase while Richmond won a premiership in 2017 and are premiership favourites...he had no issue with a star and co-captain walking out on a struggling club to a powerhouse. Whereas with Coniglio he'd be going from a stronger team to a weaker one.
AFL were helping GWS poach Buddy from Hawthorn, and once Sydney picked their pocket the AFL took away their COLA and slapped a trade ban on them.
He'll just do whatever it takes to get the outcome the AFL wants...there is no fairness or equality.
Exactly my thoughts too. With the possibility of him leaving I’m sure he knows exactly what GWS are planning to do coachwise next year. Maybe he’s waiting to see who the new coach, if any, may be before he makes his decision ?
When the AFL is taking under the table deals to countries with no OSH laws, and commit countless human rights violations, and when Gil and other key executives are arrested for corruption
