Re: 2020 Player movement
I’d easily have him. An ideal replacement in the 22 for JJ
I will never see #16 the same!!

Im not sure he’s an actual upgrade on JJ.

Re: 2020 Player movement
If we want to upgrade our bottom 4-5 in our 22 to okish standard AFL players then getting Atkins for free wouldn't be the worst idea. Much better option than just rotating the least worst at the time of Hayes and Smith through that spot.

Well he’s certainly tougher isn’t he ?

Re: 2020 Player movement
I think he’s a better player than JJ
He’s a key player at the giants and a big loss

Re: 2020 Player movement
FREMANTLE has announced untried youngsters Dillon O'Reilly and Isaiah Butters will also be released.
With the Dockers heading to their hub in Queensland, general manager of football Peter Bell said the pair would not travel with the team and won't be offered a fresh contract for 2021.
With not getting a game one would think that's it for the pair. I would like to know mjp thoughts on Butters

Was a free hit as an academy eligible player...I guess I understand what they were thinking but I simply don't think people understand how hard it would be to go from North West WA (and we aren't talking Geraldton here like Liam Ryan - pretty sure Butters is from Halls Creek or Fitzroy Crossing) to the AFL...I honestly think kids like this need to play senior WAFL footy for a couple of years and *MAYBE* then give them a go...
It isn't another state or another town. If you are from 'up there' that is quite literally another planet. Just living in Perth would be an incredible challenge without trying to play elite level sport.
What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

Re: 2020 Player movement
Oh. I guess that wasn't really an opinion.
He's fast and jumps high. Low possession winner. No idea what else to think as I only saw him play 2-3 colts games last year.

Re: 2020 Player movement
It would be like Zephaniah Skinner and would find it hard transitioning into full on AFL life style away from family on the other side of the country.

Re: 2020 Player movement
From the Hun
1. The asking price on Zac Williams
The rebounding defender will not be at GWS Giants next year and clubs inquiring about his contract terms are being told the figure lies in the $800,000-$900,000 range. That’s a top-end salary when you consider the AFL and the AFLPA are about to sit down to discuss next year’s salary cap. It will be reduced, meaning Williams might not have as many suitors as he’d like because the money won’t be there. Reckon he’s more in the $700,000 range. Some clubs, mindful of his performance in the middle against Collingwood in last year’s preliminary final, are keen to switch him from halfback to the midfield full-time. Williams is loved at the Giants, but they are resigned to losing him. The more money the better for them because a compo pick is coming their way.
