Wingard's next playing contract would be about three fifths of bugger all I would have thoughtPlayers will always choose playing if they can. More money and it’s what they love.
It most certainly not with another club.If we are to miss finals and the club doesn't extend Luke for one more season it would gird to have him play his 300th game with another club.
Punky will retire a one-club player.If we are to miss finals and the club doesn't extend Luke for one more season it would gird to have him play his 300th game with another club.

AFL rookie minimum wage pays more than any job he will get next year. Unless his body is absolutely done playing is what players want to do.Wingard's next playing contract would be about three fifths of bugger all I would have thought
I don’t know. Fortnite tournaments have pretty big prize pools.AFL rookie minimum wage pays more than any job he will get next year. Unless his body is absolutely done playing is what players want to do.
Is he going to take it? I believe the same was lined up for Burgoyne, but he decided to head back to Port.Off field.
To pack up at a club he's been at for 15 years and then go through all the stuff you need to when you move clubs just to get to 300 games.If we are to miss finals and the club doesn't extend Luke for one more season it would gird to have him play his 300th game with another club.
Only because list spots seem tight. I guess the question is does keeping him push out someone you think in a year from now might make a huge leap like JOS if he can get his body right. Will be a tough call to make I don’t envy the list management team.We get hung up on using every last list spot but pretty much every club has a few spots allotted to players who have never, and may never play a senior game. I don't see an issue with keeping some older guys on.
There was also talk about a Veteran's List last year, so maybe we've got word from the AFL that list allowance will be made.
Club champions set to benefit from flagged list change
A survey sent to clubs last week put forward the possibility of a veterans list, which would allow clubs to have one veteran listed outside of the primary listwww.afl.com.au
My understanding is we have 45 on the list which needs to be 44. The current makeup is below we also need to take 3 picks at the draft but that can be achieved with picks or upgrades.If we don’t trade out our picks , currently 6+27, we could take those 2 and elevate a player. That covers our AFL draft commitment. Phillips can stay due to Lewis injury so only two to exit as a must, maybe Battle will force a third.
Feel free to fact check, keen to know for certain.
Things change. People change. If he's asked for another year the ball is in the club's court.Punky will retire a one-club player.
He has been very clear on that for several years now.
Morrison is a UFA.My understanding is we have 45 on the list which needs to be 44. The current makeup is below we also need to take 3 picks at the draft but that can be achieved with picks or upgrades.
Primary 37 (36-38 allowed)
Rookie A 7 (4-6 allowed)
cat B 1 (1-2 allowed)
Assuming we only get battle via FA or trade, likely take 3-4 picks at ND including 1-2 FS or academy, that’s 50 total. So would need to reduce by 6 including cutting or promoting 1 rookie.
IMO
Rookies cut stephens and philips.
2 of bruest Gunston wingard.
Unfortunately I think JOS will go.
Potential trade Morrison DGB but for little return likely future picks.
Sorry I had a Ralph moment. What makes him UFA I thought it was 10 years (he’s at 8) or top 25% of payments which I can’t imagine he could be.Morrison is a UFA.
It’s when you’re not top 25% of your club TPP in your last year.Sorry I had a Ralph moment. What makes him UFA I thought it was 10 years (he’s at 8) or top 25% of payments which I can’t imagine he could be.

And he’s playing like it.That's the point, at the moment he's got value.
I have no idea if he's going to request a move and I don't know if any other clubs would be interested, but i do know for a fact he's not happy "stuck in the VFL".
Meek would still be a far superior player around the ground than Reeves even if that happened.And suppose the ruck rule interpretation which favours meek over reeves disappears overnight like it appeared overnight?
