This will be his long term contract and big decision to stay in syd or come home
Hard to get excited about to be honest.

He will more than likely get a long term contract on an average wage.
Serviceable half back flanker that will assume Lloyd's role.
20 touch a game flanker with neat skills
Wouldn't want a talented line breaker on your list? I guess he isn't an inside mid so Adrian won't even consider him.
Long live the king
Less ‘King’, more ‘Prince’Wouldn't want a talented line breaker on your list? I guess he isn't an inside mid so Adrian won't even consider him.

Adrian is finishing up at Essendon in December
He's sticking around in the backroom is what I heard. Pulling strings from behind the curtain.

If Florent wants midfield minutes I reckon he can get it at the Swans. We moved him to defence based off his form. He's had his best performances running out of defence so I can't see this being a factor.
It'll come down to money, and I don't think many clubs would be desperate for him.

Hes talked about being more recruiting side of things with under 18s ect
How in depth that is, im not sure
Honestly think his strength lies with recruiting from other clubs and eeking st the best deals for the club, so id rsther he focus in that area

so he is going from list manager to a recruiter?
im surprised he is kept at all once he has been replaced by rosa

Theres a bit of uncertainty
He may be assistant recruiting manager or something along those lines
He said he could be around for many more years just not as full on/full time
Or he may just help an inexperienced guy in Rosa transition over for a few years

nothing to do with dodo. As not only a Swans supporter but also a lover of the game and all its intricacies, its actually offensive to read his name. He's basically created a list that hasn't won a final in over 3000 days. He deserves zero respect.Please take your discussion to the Essendon board or at least to a thread titled Dodorro. Then the 99% of footy fans that have zero respect can chose not to waste their time.

I think he kind of had a dip in form in the second half of the year ….. I think he is a player who has a fair bit of scope for improvement in 2024

It actually wasnt an Essendon person who brought Dodoro into this thread. But of course here on the main board it isn't possible for any Essendon supporter to comment on anything without a vitriolic response denigrating our club and or personel. That is what derailed this thread.
FWIW, I'd have thought it highly likely Florent signs a new contract with Swans before the end of June 2024.His form in the first half of the season determines length of that contract.

yep it all comes down to where does he want to see out his career, does he want to play footy based at home or stay where he is
either way will get a lengthy contract

If the Swans managed to get band 1 compo for him, I would strongly advice they let him go, especially assuming other clubs like North or St Kilda (or Richmond) could probably blow them out of the water financially speaking.
Would be solid cap management and asset acquisition by the Swans if that was to eventuate.

I’d rather keep him than get pick 19 in return.
Besides, he’s a decent enough player and can be a solid building block for a good side but if he’s the kind of player that attracts a band one compensation pick there’s something wrong with the compensation scale.

There is, it's a farce! Compo scale is a farce, points table is a farce, discounts are a farce, AFL is a farce, it goes on and on. Laura Kane can make a name for herself fixing all this.
I saw what you did there Liz, pick 19 is the pick after the Premiers pick (pick 19 IF Laura fixes up the multi farces for 2024). Our teams might meet in the GF
