Then you have a big war chest to give to Polac

Also known as the list management coup of the decade...


... for Port

 

[Tony Barber]

They don't really have a choice even if their players want to stay. 95% cap floor means that they have to be within 700k of a club that is right on the cap

I’m not across all this but I thought you can drop below 95% and even go up to 105%.
Just as long as over a 3 year period your average cap is between 95 and 100

Yeah there's something like that but not sure if the details. There's still a floor, soft or hard

Based Damo.

 

[Boxhead_31]

Really? I have not seen him play much at all. Who does he replace?

Tuohy or Kolo

 

[GeelongFTW]

Tuohy or Kolo

Hes pretty much better than everyone other than Stewart, SDK or Duncan really.

 

[Turbocat]

Would those lads who tied for the Morrish be worth a look?

I think the kid that came second is the one who has come with a rush. Prob top10

Cowan, Campbell-Farrell tie for Morrish Medal; Ashcroft named NAB League Boys Team of the Year captain

All the results from the 2022 NAB League Boys Awards

www.afl.com.au

Cowan and Campbell-Farrell polled 18 votes to finish one ahead of Gippsland Power captain Bailey Humphrey....






I dont know much about the last kid mention but id love to have someone called Ziggy Toledo on the list.

Can someone tell explain how a bottom 4 team even has salary cap issues?

The logic of players at clubs like geelong accepting less to stay and be successful is transposed for bottom sides. Players expect more money to be compensated for losing and playing in non prefered locations.. They get the best kids as they are bottom sides then have to fend off the approach of the more appealing clubs.

 

[Catsace]

Same here. If we get bruhn (who will be cheaper in picks than hopper) and mckenna im happy. I dont think henry is a need but i think we will taks him if he wants to come and at the right price id be ok with that

Liking the idea of McKenna, a 3rd Irishman might work well with Touhy and MOC. And would be fantastic if Ollie Henry gets to Geelong, spiritually he belongs to us anyway under the older brother rule

 

[Turbocat]

I would not say that. More running version of MOC id have thought. The play at 1.15 is what I think of when i think of him

I think the thing to remember is that we decided to remove ourselves form the situation. Which is a positive. Whether its Bruhn or Henry or McKenna or ...as you said a mystery mid

On looks at the success of Brodie at Freo ..which they got cheap due to cap relief ... I think we could arrange something like that too ...if we want.

That was a long time ago

 

[Turbocat]

That was a long time ago

You think he has changed his style? I think his game is based on the speed and run he can add.

 

[you pick one]

Come on Foxdog all these people have Scott and Wells on speed dial, How dare you think they don't have a reliable source.

I knew one just a few years back (player) who wouldn't/couldn't even discuss his own injuries with his mum under Thompson as coach you knew just not to ask and I'd be pretty sure the same rules still apply under Scott regarding in house business.

I actually like Barrett. Seems he has a lot of respect and admiration for our club.

Want a guy on the list we can nickname Major Tom

Love the dash McKenna has and his little 45-degree chip passes and underrated... Imagine him hitting those passes and someone dashing through on the other side to get the handball and continue moving the ball fast.

Speed like Jordan Clark

but with the added ability to not just bomb it long.

Could be a very handy inclusion if it falls our way.

 

[Sire of Claude]

Not every trade-in has to be a super star to improve your team. There are many many players who had or are having decent careers after being traded - Seedsman, Hind, Newman come to mind and there are plenty of others - I just can't think of them right now.

Let's hope our recruiting people are looking beyond Hopper et al for players - mids and defenders in particular - who will fit in and improve the team.

I would be sad to lose 2E to GC. Seems like one of those guys that is just good to have around the club. And has played a few very good games this year.

Yes.

But the club can't have all the older guys leave at once .

Matt Crouch…….no thanks

“This is what Geelong do”: Hawkins’ shock 2023 salary revealed

“This is why Geelong are what they are.”

www.sen.com.au

Hawkins on less than $300k next year. This typifies why haven't dropped down the ladder for 15 years - what a culture.

Can we pass the hat around? I’d kick in for the big guy.
