Interesting. Everything the club is doing lately smacks of desperation.

This could be quite awkward.

it must be noted this is NOT a club publication- it's AFL and had a discussion with someone from the club recently about the difficulties they face when independants make selections
last year was Zac. the year before Luke.

the club are NOT asked.

what desperation? because they have a calendar that has BJ on the cover? It would look worse and make more comment if he was not on there.

Why did it take me forever to realise what was happening.

My apologies. Was not aware of that.

Had it been a club thing what I meant by desperation is putting him on the calendar thinking it lets BJ know that they (the club) support him and they are on board. It just seems desperate if they are using that to get him to stay. So does offering a 28 yr old whose best is probably behind him 1.9 million on a new 3 yr contract.

I can't help but feel like the club has a bigger plan in mind though.

To be honest, as long as it isn't Carlton or Essendon I don't really care where he ends up.

I think from memory Freo had a Callander come out one year with Clive Waterhouse on the front cover two years after he was delisted !!!

I love the trade, draft and delist periods.....

When the team fails it needs to evolve, out with the spuds, in with the world beaters...


Six debutants for the Saints so far in Season 2024. :D

Love the excitement of drafts, the occasional delisting of dead wood. The anticipation of trading.
Be happier still playing. (sniffle )
