Yeah we should know more about who we're getting once Port announce their delistings....

Don't know whether to laugh or cry at how accurate that is

It's too early to call.  Blairs waiting for the delisted FA market to open.  Patience.
Delisted AFL or VFL? :lol

Caught the tail end of a discussion this morning on free agency. Talk was that a Freo player was going to Richmond and then they played the Tigers theme song. Didn't catch the players name but would be Mayne or Zac Clarke. Seems like another stopud move by the club as that will cancel out the pick we would have got for Vickery

Yep this would be right.  We'll give up the compo pick for the spud Mayne.
Does anyone have half an idea on anything?

As much as I don't want Mayne, he won't cost us picks as he is a FA.
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

Could it be Hayden Crozier,  that was the rumour last week - straight swap for Conca.

Clarke would make sense as we do need a ruck....

Keep up dude.  If we get Mayne as a FA we will not be entitled to a compo pick if we lose Vickery as a FA.

If it makes sense then it won't happen.

Convo was definately about free agency. Didn't catch players name but sounded like a done deal,as flogs including Langdon were laughing about why anyone would want to come to us

Sorry, I didn't know that was the rule. Strange if true. The two things are independent I would have thought. If you kept a good player instead of losing him as a FA, that is a bonus. You can pick up a FA then with no punishment. Yet if you lose him, you are punished for picking up another FA. Very strange rule indeed.
