                  Sounds good.

                  I'm a bit strapped for cash, how's hanging out the back of Food Plus sound?

                      Is Croft up next year?

                      Power holding out for an extra future fourth off Dunkley and securing a future fourth for Schache. Ordinarily not worth too much. But handy ‘bonus’ draft points next year it seems.

                        He's a 2005 born player so I think it means he's up next season. Last reports have him at 199cm tall. Always loved his father as a player. Gave his all.

                          A lot of draft watchers don't rate him. I know someone who really does though.

                          Those same draft watchers had Sam Darcy a 4th round prospect at the start of his u18 year, while my scout contact fell in love with him instantly.

                          We also have an NGA kid on the radar (Lual) and he's predicted to be very draft relevant, might not make it past pick 40 though (so we lose access to him)

                            Loved watching him and Kretiuk.

                              The changes to the NGA rules don't make sense. Why would you put time/money into a guy that another team can recruit, especially where your development has put them into a top 40 category? I get club's feel aggrieved about the JUH situation, but we gave up plenty to get him.

                                Yeah it's a bit cooked isn't it.

                                AFL: We are going to provide clubs with an incentive to develop players from underrepresented backgrounds by giving them exclusive access.
                                Clubs: Sweet, so that means players that would otherwise be lost to the game or be marginal prospects will be good prospects who we get to keep yes?
                                AFL: Yes.
                                Clubs: So we should invest our time and money into making them as good as possible.
                                AFL: Yes, thats the point
                                Clubs: And we will retain exclusive access no matter how good they are
                                AFL: Yes
                                ........
                                ........
                                ........
                                AFL: Well....no
                                I should leave it alone but you're not right
