Nah let him go.


I’ll put this here so it doesn’t look like Port bashing but trade period last season both Rockliff and Motlop were supposedly shopped around all over the place but no takers so what makes them such a great pick up this trade period?

I'm going to miss old Charlie if he goes. Loved the way he would win the ball, put the after burners on, with that ridiculous rolling shoulder running action, then boot the ball up forward.... to no one in particular. Still that suits the Lions game plan I guess.

Yeh, that's rubbish news for all concerned.

I've followed footy for a long time but there seems to be more deaths 'around' AFL these days. Maybe that's just the media sopping up the stories but to me it's more prevalent.

Think there is more to play yet. I suspect Adelaide are getting the best they can for Cameron and then throw the kitchen sink and make a play at WCE for McGovern. Gibbs and Francis are fair chances too but obviously won't get all 3 done. Worst case scenario having 5 first round draft picks over the next 2 years isn't the end of the world however won't help us next year.
Can you bring a man to his feet when defeat is on repeat?
