Has that been reported anywhere ?Was looking at Jed Anderson as decent midpricer but it looks like he's going to quit football because of Covid-19 and getting a bad reaction to the vaccine .
Article in the HUN. Not sure about the retiring bit.Has that been reported anywhere ?

Could also make Simpkin a viable option if he starts well. Will be his midfield to lead.Article in the HUN. Not sure about the retiring bit.
Greenwood an inspired pick up for North.
More time for JHFCould also make Simpkin a viable option if he starts well. Will be his midfield to lead.

The bit they never tell you - Darcy, Mundy and Brodie last 3 in all runs. Darcy has a long long way to go to match Gawns running ability. Very surprised at Brodie’s real lack of a tank, nearly passed by Darcy on occasions, perhaps poor training standards at Gold Coast, for a young guy to be barely able to keep up with Mundy and a ruckman was a surprise.
2022 Training Comment
From an article in 2020
Part of the knock on the contested ball magnet in the early stages of his career has been his inability to get from contest to contest, to run out games.
During his off-season, Brodie shed five kilograms and worked tirelessly on his running.
As he crossed the finish line at Somerset College early in December to complete his time trial, the significance was not lost on his teammates, who almost to a man (well, those who had finished) let out a cry of euphoria before going to ruffle Brodie's head with excitement.
Fringe Sun turns heads after shedding kilos, improving fitness

I've mentioned this before but legend on the Suns board has it that Brodie was last in every time trial he ran at the Suns.2022 Training Comment

Yeah my Cockburn supporting mate has been banging on about how unimpressive Brodie has been all pre season in drills.
Thinking he'll be a fair way down the pecking order. There's also the little snag of him not actually being a good AFL player as well
Jed has like 5 or 6 young kids.No report yet he's retiring but signs don't look good. There's a preseason rumor thread in the main board that just started where it's being discussed.
You would hope he is having his best off season ever. He has only done 2 prior to this oneKeen on Lachie Ash as a bit of POD mid-priced defender.
Have heard a couple of Giants players mention he is the clubhouse leader over the off-season, training the house down and having his best pre-season ever.
Spending some time in the midfield mix and should elevate his game again. Reckon 100 avg could be on the cards.
Love it. As always back ya gut!Keen on Lachie Ash as a bit of POD mid-priced defender.

LockMay day: Is an early comeback on the cards for gun Lions forward?
Eric Hipwood is on track to return to the field earlier than expected after a knee injury in July last yearwww.afl.com.au
I was predicting him for a break out last year. I was going to take him at 400k.

Bargain I reckon
Can understand the pessimismYou were predicting a break out year for a bloke that went 100+ 3 times in his 63 game career, and the year before dropped scores 60 or less in ⅓ of his games?
What?
Can understand the pessimism
But Rayner was touted for more midfield time last year so don’t think it’s a fair assessment
Might not of gone near 90 but players generally always improve their scoring when given a change of role inside.
Trac went from an 80 guy to a 110+ star
De goey went from a mid 80’s guy to averaging 100+ in the run home
Rayner may not get to that level but the value is there especially this year at 278k
Can definitely see the appeal for the price. Just a matter of if you’re happy to take a risk. Monitor how he looks in the pre season game televised and the reports at training and we can make a choice from there
