Mitch McGovern (please read OP)

[DJ75]

Could be an embarrassing end for Mitch when he finds out that all the other clubs have many priorities ahead of him and he ends up with few options...

Who do people think Sanders is, I've got a pretty good idea but no confirmation?

Lots of material here....best not.

 

[Pea Nut]

I'm not sure the AFL know what to do. The 1st, correct and only response is ' no contracts shall be dissolved by the AFL'

Insane precedent if they were to allow that to go ahead. Would mean that contracts are meaningless.

 

[Cleric]

You know it doesn't work that way and other factors have to be considered.
If North have an understanding that Thomas will be bid on before their first, they have every right to sell it off for some later points that will still net them Thomas.

I still think that if Carlton receive that mid round PP (~#12) then that will largely form part of the McGovern deal, should the deal still go ahead.
If though the AFL go feral and award (?) Carlton a top end PP (That's highly unlikely but obviously not impossible), what then?
Probably much too early to speculate on all possible scenarios, isn't it?

The Crows aint gonna trade him out unless they get overs. Even after SOS did it with Gov, you guys dont seem to think the same situation applies to you.
With Brisbane applying for a PP it lessens the chances you get one of any value.
If you cant get the pick needed to satisfy us he doesnt go. Its very simple. Theres no other factors.
We are playing him 500k a year, and he will play next year to get his 500k. You think he is going to sit out two years, lose a million dollars, because Carlton mean so much to him?
Nah.
And you should be concerned with the fact he hasnt said he wants a trade to Carlton. Other suitors have come knocking.

He's obviously a Grocer: look at those apostrophes! The keener among you can search the archives for an incorrigible apostrophe user to narrow down his past life.

Shouldn't that be apostrophe's?

I think C-M.

I don't know what C-M means

I saw that this morning and laughed to myself. I wonder what the criteria is for a player to fall on either side of "let him go" / "he must stay"?

One possible inference is that Barrett is implying that your club’s option of playing hardball with MM, via the threat of retaining him, has been reality tested by someone/some-entity of note; and that your club has been advised that doing so would be adverse to its interests.

As far as the 'let him go' scenario is concerned, one such criterion might be your club’s reputation moving forward; another might be related to your club’s ability to enforce its contact against the player altogether.

A lot of rubbish written here.

This is a huge stretch. And nothing more than crossed fingers.

Are you saying the inference i outlined is not possible and thus rubbish?

Or more likely Barratt is talking out of his arse. As per usual. His comment on Neale clearly shows his hypocrisy. Its all about click bait.

You mean like when Carlton held on to Gibbs against his desire to move home.for personal reasons, which were far more pressing than Gov's need to move...

You catch on quick.

I outlined a possible inference, primarily in my attempt to reconcile his use of the word 'warned."
Your quite entitled to draw your own conclusion as to whether it is probable or otherwise; however it would strengthen your argument if you addressed his reference as to your club having been "warned" in your response.

Hi Damian.

Would you say the circumstances are reasonably the same?

That is one possibility

 

[Pugsley]

Trying to sound intelligent. Would've taken hours with a thesaurus.

 

[Opine]

Hi Damian.

I can categorically state that this is not a possibility

 

[Crow till I die]

Well on 5AA just before, McGovern was discussed at length and Rowe made many mentions that all the word coming out of the club is that they are really prepared to play hardball and they are very firm on that. Over to you SOS

 

[beartoo]

I can categorically state that this is not a possibility

Go away, Troll.

 

[Pugsley]

I can categorically state that this is not a possibility

How about a box of chocolates ?

I thought I remember you saying you knew CM and it wasn’t him?
