The real victim here is Knobel, has to play for GC and listen to Hardwick spend half the day ranting and the other half whining.
look tbh it is suck shit freo - wa always a ridiculous call to do what they did but **** me if GC aren’t the most petty pathetic club- absolutely payback for sharp but honesty how is poor max getting a gig?- he’s got Witt’s read , moyle in front of him , honestly hope that piece of shit franchise never tastes success

I feel sorry for Max if this is out of the blue for him - but has he shown enough to warrant this level of melt?

seems to be more angst over losing Max than when we lost Meek. Bizarre. Max may never play an AFL game whereas looking back in 10, it may have been smarter keeping Meek and trading an injury-affected Darcy.

Yeah and how many games of AFL had Meek played after two years?

Meek will take Max's 8 x AA and you will weep into your mother's apron
Hindsight hero pattern around here. Darcy was a b&f winner, Meek was an ok depth ruckman.
I'm still not buying into the Meek hype, nothing against him, but it'll fade, he's nothing special, just had a good purple patch

What's this I'm hearing about the Eagles looking at Max and he and his management telling them go jump?
Anybody else hear about this?

I really rated Meek, think he will end up with a really solid career.

Surprisingly the wait wasn’t long, just enough time for a beer next door. They pump them out quick. Worth it!

Not sure bout the rumour , wouldn’t surprise me as they need a ruck (apparently barnett looking like a dud,Jameson is a dud and Williams is just battler).
That said more than happy to run with it either way , as it’s quite the feel good story after yesterday.
Now off to all my social media counts to get the ball rolling!!
I ve never seen him play, but his stats looks reasonable for a 207cm 20 yr developing ruckman. Played a wafl game where he had 50 hit outs, 16 disposals and a goal.
Think averaged 40 hitouts in his 3 wafl games.
I don't understand why we needed to delist him in the first place.
That’s exactly it and the most frustrating part.
There must be some overarching club rule that states we max out the rookie list every year to save whatever dollars we can. There was no other need or rule that required us to delist him.

It's to make space on the main list for picks in the national Draft, as opposed to the rookie Draft. Therefore having us, hypothetically, fill up the list with a higher level of talent than we'd get from the rookie Draft.
Really feel Walls wasn’t fussed. I just had a thought. Worner who was upgraded counts as one of our three ND selections. So effectively we could have kept Knobel on primary list had our two selections and then had Carr added to rookie list as F/S.
If Walls really wanted to it wouldn’t have been too difficult to keep Knobel on the list. If GCS didn’t jump ahead of us then we would have likely signed him up for 1 year only and it seems like he would have been against the odds to get an extension beyond 2025. Walls being interviewed the night before rookie draft said “If” Knobel is available….
