Re: AFLW 2019 List Changes Reply #60 – April 20, 2019, 02:01:41 pm I read recently that Collingwood WILL have to trade for Davey, and WE have to be reasonably compensated or it won't happen.Maddy Prespakis does have a sister coming through. How good she is, that I don't know. However, I have noted that she has been in the top 3 placegetters when I looked up the NAB League Girls results. Quote Selected

Expansion sides could get her without a trade.BUT....if Davey doesn't sign a contract with us, she is free to enter the draft (as i understand it) and who has pick 1? Magpies. Quote Selected

Re: AFLW 2019 List Changes Reply #64 – April 21, 2019, 09:21:36 am I read somewhere that it is unlikely Collingwood will retain pick 1, as they will give some very early picks to the expansion clubs to make sure they get the pick of the best juniors, it depends on how well they are able to poach players. From memory last year Geelong was given picks 1 and 2? Quote Selected

From memory last year Geelong was given picks 1 and 2?Yeah, that is another possibility. How they award the picks depends on how well they have recruited thus far.You are right, Geelong did get 1+2, whereas North got nothing because they got in so much high end talent from other clubs.That being said, teams can only pick from their 'zones' which is basically their own state. So of the 4 expansion teams, only 2 (Tigers and Saints) would likely be able to get a pick before Collingwood that would matter.....and i reckon Tigers have recruited pretty well, so might be the saints with pick 1.....which might suit Davey as she played for the St. Kilda Sharks previously i believe.

Re: AFLW 2019 List Changes Reply #68 – April 23, 2019, 10:45:42 am Crickets it seems, trade signing period done and dusted and despite Davey being the hot topic we've nothing yet to report. It's a bit odd! Quote Selected
Re: AFLW 2019 List Changes Reply #69 – April 24, 2019, 07:29:23 pm ....and finally the club has come to the table and released the names i gave you all a week ago. But, its given us contract length as well...https://www.carltonfc.com.au/news/2019-04-24/blues-re-sign-21-playersCarlton Football Club re-signings on April 24, 2019Gabriella Pound – 2 YearsDarcy Vescio – 2 YearsKerryn Harrington – 2 YearNicola Stevens – 2 YearsTayla Harris – 2 YearsMaddie Prespakis – 2 YearsJess Hosking – 2 YearsGeorgia Gee – 2 YearsAbbie McKay – 2 YearsChloe Dalton – 1 YearBrooke Walker – 1 YearKatie Loynes – 1 YearSarah Hosking. – 1 YearBreann Moody – 1 YearAlison Downie – 1 YearJayde Van Dyk – 1 YearLauren Brazzale – 1 YearNatalie Plane – 1 YearJess Edwards – 1 YearCharlotte Wilson – 1 YearEmerson Wood – 1 YearCouple of things....1. Why is Jess Hosking 2 years, but Sarah only 1? Sarah is the better player, in the leadership group, hasn't had the injuries her sister has. It doesn't make sense to me. 2. Great effort signing up our best talent to 2 years. The Sarah Hosking anomaly aside, i'd say our best 7 players (and a couple others) are locked away for 2 years. With the obvious exception of our turncoat captain. Quote Selected
Re: AFLW 2019 List Changes Reply #70 – April 24, 2019, 07:33:37 pm Also worth noting from that video, that we are only allowed to sign 22 players, we are forced to have 8 list changes.Given that we have signed 21, are we leaving the door open for Davey to come back and be our final signing?

Weve offered the more injury prone one a two year contract which gives her security which fosters a likelihood her sister will stay even though shes only got one?Or perhaps we'll reverse this trend afterwards and offer them both enough security?
