"There was an issue with Clayton at the Brownlow Medal which upset some teammates."
I cannot wait to hear this in its entirety. This is the drama I live for.

Doesn’t the Brandon Ryan trade now look like Nostradamus levels of genius? But seriously hope he gets a shot and wonder what they do he’s a huge loss.

Good on him - walks to his own drum does Joe and it’s refreshing to see
On another note - he would of frustrated the hell out of me if he played for us

One of the more likeable former Bombers I can think of. Had a very solid Finals series and ending up with 2.4 in the Grand Final was a perfect way to sum up his career.

Toby would be loving this
Amazing end to a very interesting career. Never hit the heights expected in the very early days but was a very good player and finished his career with a bumper finals series and a flag. He will retire happy and always seemed a good fella.
Big loss for the Lions. Wonder what they do here. This will free up about $1M cap space and they will be happy to get rid of their first pick given Ashcroft incoming. They would be a very enticing option for a key forward interested in a move. JUH?
The Bombers will be pleased: Daniher family has good footy genes and he finishes his career with 96 games at the Lions, 108 at Bombers.

I think this shows an amount of maturity and smarts. What else is there for him to achieve. Only Crawf did the retirement thing better (that's what I'm talkin about

James Peatling of GWS has informed the club he wants to play for Adelaide next season
That's a good get. And they need someone like him.

Wonder if players actually enjoy playing underneath Kingsley.

Agree, out of all the players moving from GWS, he is the pick

I think these decisions are all money based. You cant have 6-8 millionaires in your side and hope everyone else is happy to play for 300K

Feel like Adelaide have plenty of B grade defensive mids.
They lack A grade talent.
Think it’s more to do with GWS. Barely been a season in their little history where they didn’t lose players they’d like to keep. It’s the life of a small expansion club

lots of players wanting to head to Geelong. maybe a salary cap audit is required? 
Good shout on the JUH suggestion, that would be huge for the Lions. Wonder what the Dogs would be asking for him.

Lions have to cash in on Ashcroft - they’d have a future first only to play with. Can’t see it happening.

Do they? I feel like Peatling types are all they have.

This is the treatment that Geelong gets from the media which baffles me - Geelong take on Bowes' contract, Gold Coast use that and give up a pick to get the contract off the books, then Geelong are able to restructure his salary down to nothing anyway. Same shit proposed here with Oliver, are we just supposed to be okay with the Demons being able to get out of a terrible contract with Geelong being able to facilitate that while being able to reduce the amount owed for some reason?
I'm not even one to get caught up in the Geelong BS, but if the AFL have moved to block deals before then this is where they should be doing it again.

He has serious personal issues and a monster contract but ability and credentials wise (2x Coaches award winner, 4x B&F and aged 27), Oliver is the best player to move clubs since Buddy. What is being proposed as the trade price (about pick 20 after bids) is a joke.
