Wonder if West get a transfer fee for Motlop

Didnt Krakour walkout on the Power?

The article makes it sound as if Mieklejohn could be a chance to resume with the magpies at some point.

I reckon the Power side will be a fair bit stronger than the Crows side.

At what point did you come to this conclusion.

Former Port Magpies captain James Meiklejohn has also been spotted on the training track but a surprise comeback isn’t on the cards.

‘’Jimmy has been back once a week doing some ruckwork with our young players which has been great,’’ Peters said.

So Krakouer and Motlop on 400 when im sure there would be country/amateur clubs offering double that minimum.
Either Port are pissing in their ear about an AFL contract if they perform or they are getting some cash under the table

Not sure the country clubs could give them exposure to (all 18) afl clubs though, which would be a carrot if they are serious.

Those two have been thoroughly exposed.

As being young and immature?

Word is Freo were looking at Motlop this year but he wanted to come back to SA. Krakouer isn't the first young player to chase the big coin and won't be the last. At 26-27, he's the same age as Monfies when the PAFC recruited him.

Happy to give them a go, first at a Magpies Premiership, then at an AFL list.

I think ( and I agree ) with TSG that Motlop was exposed as not being up to AFL standard, he isn't. Fremantle would have "looked" at potentially dozens of players.

Krakouer I think was up to AFL football, ability wise, mind set and application the jury has reached it's verdict on.

Motlops a spud. I wouldn`t even have him as a top up player

Motlop already gone apparently forgot to tell port he still contracted to peel thunder and they found out he was training at port and want port to pay a fee and port have said no.

Surely Port would have done their due diligence?

Part of the rules of port coming into comp were that they could not recruit anyone that has been on an afl or state league team in the preceding 18 months.

But Marlon Motlop was at a state league team in 2013—Peel Thunder. So if that rule existed, Port could never have taken him (and therefore it would have been inappropriate for them to announce he was training with them). No such rule is in the press release version of the rules for the entry of the Pahhhhhhhr seconds into the SANFL competition, quoted in the thread dedicated to that team. I doubt if it exists.

Looks like the SANFL and the PAFC make up the rules as they go along anything to give the POWSERVES an already and a further huge advantage over all the SANFL teams.

Comp Integrity gone YES

Comp Compromised YES

SANFL Faaarked YES

Agree! This really is turning out to be a joke
