Re: Other club trade talk
I'd trade Lukosius for Crouch if I were GCS. If they can really afford him.

Not a typo. Tom's giving himself a $899K range to cover his bases
Re: Other club trade talk
North aren’t doing the rest of us a favour with good, not great, players $900,000 a year. Polec and Papley now maybe. But it’s Browne, so it could be what he heard from someone on acid trip in a park.

Is Crouch out of contract?
Why would GC trade him for Lukosius? Cant he just nominate for the PSD (last I checked it still existed) and pick him then?

But how much is Papley worth?
He is probably a $700K player at Sydney so it stands to reason North would need to offer him something to get him. I don't have a problem with the number and have been surprised by all the talk about Papley and Carlton being a fait accompli. He is REALLY good and clearly on an upward trajectory...

No he's contracted for next year.

He would fit into the doggies well.

He's contracted. His manager is actively shopping him around. The last I read GCS was leading the pack, but St Kilda & Geelong were interested too. I think I read he's a free agent next year, so they might get more now. Or they can give him what he wants, 5 years t $1M.

Paul Connors mentioned Josh Jenkins is happy to go to any club for the next opportunity and prepared to take a pay cut.

I would too. He's smarter than I thought. Anything would be better than having a proper job!
A lot of AFL players overlook that fact.

Adelaide have confirmed he is leaving

Andrew Jarman (yeah I know) reckons that Geelong are interested.
Hopefully the cats mistakenly believe they can have another crack with Dad's Army next year, will make the inevitable fall all the more spectacular.
