I like this guy a lot. Orange team are bloody good. He's got some spine, no wonder he demolished our mids in the semi final.

The AFL will have cleaned Coles out of candy well before Halloween at this rate.

He’s an ok player but it’s just crazy that the compensation can be a first round pick when St Kilda aren’t even offering a contract.

Same as McKay, really.

 

[Grave Danger]

Free agency period ends today (and RFA matching on Monday), so might be a few more of these doozies to come.

Pick 3 for McKay proves the system is completely broken.

But it's giving Vic teams a boost so it's all good

Gresham is the last player of any value to move in free agency

And we got what for Amon?

If he didn’t have an identical/mirror twin with significantly more runs on the board — but had the exact same career for date — do they still cop pick #3?

 

[Ported]

Is the entire competion going to boo gunston for leaving after one year, or is that just for 19 year olds

Toby Red amirite?

I swear it feels like any time I flick on AFLW for 5 minutes someone does a knee, we need stats on how often it happens compared to other womens sports.

I have no problem with them getting more coin if it's gonna continue on being an ACL festival of doom, the AFL can afford it.

I remember seeing some sort of medic things about how women are more pre-disposed towards doing ACLs than men are. Happens a lot in netball too

The female ACL: Why is it more prone to injury?

3-6x more likely than men to do an ACL.

Yea I read something similar, in contact sport it can be up to 8x more likely.

The ACLW

 

[Schulzenfest]

The Crows are Dodoro'ing it up as well. This is almost more ridiculous than Geelong's Ratugolea stance. I'm surprised Melbourne offered anything more than a future third for an out of contract McAdam, they should be taking that deal and running.

Not sure why so many clubs are demanding the world for bog average out of contract fringe players this year, but it's painful to read. Maybe they're holding out just in case they can convince Petty to demand a trade?

It's a symptom of no real high profile players on the move this year I reckon, ask the world for potatoes.

Didn't they miss the 8?
