He's only worth a fourth rounder...so yeah nothing much.Lewis has 2 years of a contract to go. How does someone pick him up for nothing?
Then we can’t trade him, if there’s no contract, we delist him and he can go as a DFAPretty sure that rumour is incorrect. My understanding is we have not offered Owies a contract
Added a poll re Houston
Of course you can trade.Then we can’t trade him, if there’s no contract, we delist him and he can go as a DFA
Austin is on leave until next Tuesday.Race for Dan Houston, I didn’t realise we were in a race….has someone told Austin.
AFL trade news: Collingwood aims to trump Carlton in race for Port Adelaide star Dan Houston
Look away now Blues fans. Carlton’s chances of landing Dan Houston were already drifting — now the club’s biggest rival is ready to take advantage of friction between the Blues and Port Adelaide.
See you next Tuesday.Austin is on leave until next Tuesday.
What did you call me???
So if a trade was agreed we just need to put a token offer on the table for him to reject and we're good to goThen we can’t trade him, if there’s no contract
Nothing means good picks / trades coming back our way...Lewis has 2 years of a contract to go. How does someone pick him up for nothing?
We are crazy if we trade Young out and don’t draft or trade a replacement for him. We desperately need to develop our own young (modern) key defender. (Clancy Dennis and Harry O’Farrell top the wish list) Will be a hiatus if we just draft a kid who will be a couple of years minimum developing, but Haynes helps and I expect Lemmey to be developed back and Kempy to stay there in the short term.
Remember reading about young Clancy, he sounds like a very promising KPD in the making.

We should get O’Farrell under the father / son provisions of the Family Law Act 1975 - full custody to the father’s football team is in the child’s best interest…I'm greedy, but would love two picks in the teens and then another in the 20s to grab O'Farrell or Dennis before a bid on Ben....don't know if we have the currency (or list spots) to manage that
Doesn’t matter if the talent (or target) down the queue is better this time around vs 2025.If we miss out on 13 I'm not crazy about using our F1 to get a later 1st. Not worth it to get a pick around 20. Leaves us little flexiblibility at the trade table next year plus the downside if we don't go as well as we'd hoped.
From next year you can trade picks 2-years in advance so even if we don't want to use our 26' first (Cody Walker) we could use our 27' first. Gives us more flexibility. So imo we should be moving our 25' pick into this year's draft and get an extra year of development into the playerIf we miss out on 13 I'm not crazy about using our F1 to get a later 1st.

What chance of Owies going to Brisbane? We'd want to be dealing for their #20 in some way.If we miss out on 13 I'm not crazy about using our F1 to get a later 1st.

I know this is a joke but can an ex 100 game player actually adopt children then potentially have them as father sons. Could have our own ‘blindside’ movie adaptation.We should get O’Farrell under the father / son provisions of the Family Law Act 1975 - full custody to the father’s football team is in the child’s best interest…
I like your thinking Redman…I know this is a joke but can an ex 100 game player actually adopt children then potentially have them as father sons. Could have our own ‘blindside’ movie adaptation.

Or trade involving Beecken or Craven who are borderline to retain spots due to their list squeeze being tighter than ours.
If it was possible, you'd think Port would have explored this with JHF. His step-father (Fabian Francis) played over 100 games - though mixed between Port pre-AFL and post-AFL.I know this is a joke but can an ex 100 game player actually adopt children then potentially have them as father sons.
