    Re: North Melbourne

    So they have to trade the picks for players?

    Can I interest you in All Australian Squad (level in 2019 according to Luke Beveridge) defender Hayden Crozier?

    The AFL has handed the Kangaroos a 2023 second and 2023 third round pick that must be traded to another club or clubs, for at least one player, under a draft assistance package aimed at making North Melbourne more competitive quickly.

    The AFL also gave North the right to an additional two rookies on the list - a measure aimed at allowing the club to keep younger players while bringing in more mature talent.


    Sources familiar with the AFL’s draft assistance for the Roos said the future picks had to be used in trades this year or they would cease to exist.
    The league wanted to help North Melbourne without penalising rival clubs, and they did not want the Kangaroos to stockpile draft picks.


    The assistance package can be used to help the Kangaroos complete deals for players they are recruiting during the trade period - such as Fremantle’s Griffin Logue, who intends to cross to Arden Street on a five-year deal.

    What should North be doing with the Clarkson situation? Do they need to have some contingencies in place?

    Question re: draft assistance package. Would Brad Scott have been involved in this process, as part of his role at AFL? interesting if so, given he created the problems.

    You want to know what they should do?

    Re-drive the coaching application process.
    What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

    Get on the phone to Yze, I think the Bombers have made a mistake there. No coincidence Melbourne came good when he arrived IMO.

    Jazza, I love your hint to political cynism there. Create the problem.. parachute in to provide the solution with an assistance package .

    It's a strange world in the AFL. Some can't handle it.

    Is it worse than what Dusty did way back when? The AFL is a forgiving industry if you have talent and can perform.

    Very true. Rules are inconsistently applied because it all depends on how good you are.
