Reilly was in development, Im guessing Mattner was offered a reduced role and less $ but refused it which led to Reilly taking on the role

Two jobs going up here in AFLNT once this COVID 19 is over.

Two people who have been stood down until may have jumped shipped to the Government and NLC.

One will be right up the alley of an aspiring AFL coach, Manager of Talent and Pathways for the NT
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

Interesting comments :

Adelaide board member Rod Jameson has warned players who choose not to enter a quarantine hub could be placing their AFL futures in jeopardy.
With hubs continuing to spark debate, Port Adelaide footy boss Chris Davies said that his club is “not in the slave trade”.

The worst-case scenario of up to 20 weeks in a hub is increasingly unlikely, but shorter-term hubs remain an option for the AFL to reboot the stalled season. Several players have baulked at the prospect of playing games in isolation away from their families during the coronavirus pandemic.

“There will be some decisions made at the end of the year,” Jameson told ABC SA Grandstand on Sunday.

“Lists are going to be reduced, now because of your decision to maybe not play this year it might impact how we consider whether you want to be on the list next year as well.

“There are so many things to consider.

“We could end up going from 46-48 players down to 36 or 35, so it could be that potentially players on contracts won’t have contracts.”

Crows football chief Adam Kelly took a more conciliatory tone when asked about the prospect of a player refusing to go into a hub.

“We’re fully aware that being away from home would conflict with their responsibilities as fathers, as husbands, and there could be other circumstances within our players’ lives where they think it’s going to be hard for them to be in a hub,’‘ Kelly said.

“We’ll cross that bridge when we get to it.

“But as a club our priority is our people, their wellbeing and ensuring we’ve got all the support for them and their decision making.”

There is growing confidence a return to playing games as early as June is possible after the national cabinet agreed on a set of principles for stalled sporting codes on Friday.

A new pay deal struck with players allows the league to play games into December if required, but the AFL is aiming to complete a 17-round season by October 31.

Davies urged Power players to think carefully before opting out of a hub scenario, but is understanding of the pressures involved.

“Our position is clear: if a player came to me or Ken (Hinkley) with legitimate concerns about going into a hub then we would listen,” Davies said.

“We would expect that the player has thought about the position that they’re going to take before coming and making any sort of assessment as to whether they said that they didn’t want to go.

“But at the same time we’re not in the slave trade here.”

It's probably a point that's been made enough times, one of the embarrassing parts of supporting any club, but Smithson staking out Ryder's house was a pretty ordinary act.

The problem is that bit defeated the purpose of the 14 day isolation for I interstate travellers.

Which is a concern with anyone coming out of the news in Victorianor NSW.

However I understand how the mistake was made and how they got to that point. They had all this space and were in iso together, so why not I guess.
