James Frawley is the only player Geelong is targeting in the upcoming trade and free agency period, says coach Chris Scott.

Essendon's Brendon Goddard has branded rival clubs as unethical for inviting Essendon players to break their contracts under a duty-of-care clause.

Jake Carlisle, Michael Hurley and Patrick Ryder are all reportedly attracting interest from rival clubs, as speculation mounts that Ryder may join the Brisbane Lions.

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2014-09-14/rival-clubs-unethical-bj


Paddy Ryder could walk out on Essendon as early as this week, however the Bombers are demanding a high pick and a senior player in return for Ryder.

The Bombers are understood to be ready to file court action should Ryder walk out on the club whilst contracted, through an AFL player association rule that allows Essendon players to move freely to another club due to the on-going drugs saga which created an 'unsafe work environment'.

Hawthorn has put a line through Demons big man Mitch Clark.

Mitch Robinson is finding the job of attracting new suitors hard. The Blues midfielder has attracted little interest so far, with rivals aware of his on and off-field weaknesses.

Eagle Callum Sinclair is third in line in the Eagles’ ruck pecking order and could be lured elsewhere. The Eagles will trade Sinclair if a satisfactory deal is offered. He has played nine games in two years.

Gold Coast big man Daniel Gorringe is also looking for more senior opportunity.

Rumours that Adelaide have offered Jake Carlisle $3.5m over 5 years and are also interested in Hawthorn's Ryan Schoenmakers and Kangaroo Levi Greenwood.

Other clubs unethical?

As unethical as administering your players with 'we don't know what/how much' injected pharmaceuticals without proper and informed consent?

GTFO.


I'd be happy if we threw an offer at Carlisle.

Surely that wouldn't be enough to entice Carlisle interstate. Could offer a bit less and keep him in Vic.

Yes please, a very definite upgrade on the Big O and more ability in his little finger than Hamspud's entire body.  Has a lot of potential and not getting a crack due to 2 good 'uns in front of him.

If we intended to go after a 'big fish' this year Carlisle would be my #1 priority.  He would be an upgrade (by a lot) on any of our "embarrassment of riches" KPP stocks and if we got him it would allow us to trade a Vickery or Griffiths or Astbury which would then allow us to upgrade on another position.  Win win.  Big time.
