Hardwick is deluded and has been for years. Not confident that he'll change anything. His game plan is 5 years out of date and should have been changed after the Carlton loss in the final

He did change it - to an even worse one....

Yep.
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Worse. In his own words, we have the best list during his 7 year tenure yet we slipped so far down the ladder.

Why? Mainly game plan and the players knowing it was poo

Correct.  Hardwick won't change.  He thinks it's the execution that's the problem not the method.  "Look we just need to get better"
Does anyone have half an idea on anything?

What did Miller have to do with Wallace's gameplan? What's your point anyway?

Unreliable source but anyway:

Brian Waldron says Reece Conca could end up at Sydney and Nankervis could be a Tiger in 2017.

Ben Williams reveals that Jack Frost will join Brisbane on a three-year deal should a trade get done.

Jason Dover - manager - says Fremantle is Brad Hill's only motivation for 2017. West Coast has asked but it hasn't gone any further .

Dover on Fyfe: Like Hogan, I'll be advised by my client. I'll pass on the opportunities but we expect to be having chats with Fremantle soon

Dover on Aaron Black: We've had open discussions with NM and we're on the same page now he deserves a fresh start.

Dover on Zac Clarke: He had a really positive exit meeting with Ross Lyon yesterday. We'll known more in next 48 hours.

Fremantle has considerable interest in uncontracted Geelong forward Shane Kersten, who is set to undergo a medical at the Dockers this week.

Western Bulldogs midfielder Lin Jong is likely to move to Gold Coast now, with the Suns reportedly tabling a 3-year deal.

GWS player Jake Barrett might look for opportunities elsewhere, according to his manager Dave Trotter.

Dave Trotter, who is also manager of Jack Steele has admitted Steele is finding it very tough to make a decision on his future.

So far just a comment from some random BF flog, so take with grain of salt for now:

Quote from: captain cotch 9
Aparently Melbourne would trade Salem for the right deal.
Would they take Lennon for Salem?
We were very interested in Salem in his draft year.

Would have been happy with Salem in his draft year but why didn't he play much this year? Had bad hammies in 2015 IIRC
