Polec - I'm homesick I wanna go home to SA (real reason money)
Polec - I wanna go to north, the missus' family lives there (real reason money)

Smells a lot like Mitch Clark to me. Probably a shit bloke too.


Football "fans" are embarrassing, left Brisbane when they were a rabble & when he was young to go home on less money than he would have got if he stayed, now offered ridiculous money & an extra couple years on the contract to leave & he's copping shite for it? People need to grow up.

Correct me of I'm wrong but i think he took less money to go home? He has also been pretty open about this trade being for the money. Seems fairly honest to me
 
For all this talk of players from other clubs, it would be even better if we were linked to a CHF. I’d let all the others pass for a solid key fwd to provide support for Hawkins.

I think they have a ripper in Sav and Jack Henry is going to do great things for us in the future.

Trade Radio saying Norf is the front runner for Hall.

Trade Radio?? Strike rate of about 13%... lol

Geelong can again trade its first-round draft pick in 2018

THE AFL’s restrictions on trading future-first round picks wont bite down on Geelong until next year if the club continues to trade out its top picks.

The Cats are the only club in the league which have traded out their first-round pick in each of the past three years.

If they again move on this year’s first-round choice, without bringing in an early replacement selection, they will be prevented from trading out their future first-round pick (for the 2020 draft) in next year’s exchange period.

HAWKS: CLARKO’S NEXT GENIUS TRADE MOVE

MAY-DAY: SUNS SKIPPER LIKELY WANTS OUT

Any club which does not use at least two first-round picks at the draft within a rolling four-year period will be handcuffed from passing on their future first-round pick the following season.

Importantly, every club can trade its first-round pick for the current season every year, as the rules only refer to trading out future first-round picks, according to an AFL document.

However, there is a large loophole.

All clubs can still apply for special league exemption to beat the future first-round pick clamp down even if they are fall into the restriction zone.

In an AFL document ‘Determination for the trading of future draft selections’ it says, “Exceptions will only apply based on the age of players traded for first-round selections and what other draft selections have been taken by the club in the relevant time frame.”

The Cats have clarified with the AFL they are allowed to trade their first-round pick and their future first-round pick for this year’s exchange period.

However, it is more likely the Cats will hold on to both choices and pick up a youngster in the first round of this year’s draft for the first time since they welcomed Nakia Cockatoo in 2014.

Since then, Geelong has traded it first-round selection to nab stars Lachie Henderson, Patrick Dangerfield and Zach Tuohy.

The Cats are mindful of refreshing the list with some young talent, despite zeroing in on Western Bulldogs free agent Luke Dahlhaus and Sydney speedster Gary Rohan as well.

As the Herald Sun revealed in July, the Cats have offered Dahlhaus a four-year deal to arrive at the cattery and help them dial up the forward line pressure for next season.

Rohan would also add some extra speed and line breaking flair.

The Cats may also lose hard nut George Horlin-Smith to Gold Coast, goal kicker Daniel Menzel to St Kilda and livewire Lincoln McCarthy to Brisbane.

Geelong has not yet made a play for St Kilda’s Paddy McCartin, despite widely-held belief the Saints’ spearhead is open to a move in the exchange period.

The AFL designed these trading restrictions in 2015 to prevent irresponsible or haphazard list management.

They will be implemented for the first time in next year’s exchange period.

“The relevant time frame commences from the National Draft in 2015, so the first four year block will not come into effect until the Exchange Period of 2019,” the AFL rule states.

Clubs have to seek board approval before swapping out its future-first round pick in any year

. How can he be a "spearhead" when he never plays and when he does play, he's roundly terrible.

He'd want to be one that can 'improve' in a forward line with Hawk and Sav.

Also, interesting the language they use around Dahlhaus ("may be the next player to join") and Rohan ("Likely to join")

I don’t think you’ll get any disagreement on Hall.
It’s absurd.

And Rohan ain’t far behind.

Go Catters

There is still speculation that Rohan will end up at the Cats.
Although his soft tissue injuries make him a good candidate for our Medical room.
 
Would happily take Paddy McCartin if the price was right (ie not our first rounder).

He’s shown a bit, and he’s been playing as a basketcase essentially drawing the best defender every week.

Injury concerns are a worry and I don’t know if he’ll ever be able to cover the ground the way the elite key forwards can.

High risk, high reward.
 
McCartins a good forward but the diabetes and concussion issues mean you wouldnt trade much for him, never a R1. St K may be open to moving him if they are planning to draft King at 4 but i doubt anyone will pay what they will want.

I agree on a way. I wouldn't think of giving up anything besides a round 3 for McCartin.

I think it's just that the article marries up Geelong enquiring about whether they can trade their first rounder and talk of a potential McCartin trade that rubs me the wrong way, though surely the two things aren't linked.

Agreed.
My query are the Saints thinking of Menzel when they have Battle, Membrey, Bruce and McCartin already.
Maybe the caller on SEN had that in mind.
Plus getting Guthrie out of here
 
Dahlhaus, Rohan, Steven and now McCartin. This "target anyone from Geelong" thing is getting a little silly. Who's next, Luke Hodge?

The only Geelong boys I'd be targeting would be C Curnow (never gonna happen), Darcy (pretty unlikely) and Witherden (not this year).

If you troll through the various posts you will see we are/should be delisting/trading over 20 players from the list...

Silly season has arrived early....
