Alleged incident at hotel on Sunday night

[Kafka's Ghost]

Seemingly 2 players appear confident it will be sorted by trade period

I’m not sure those players’ judgement is particularly valid. From what they’ve shown so far. But like everyone else, I’d love for this matter to be resolved quickly, despite Vic Police saying the next significant announcement would be 8 weeks away.

All running with a Blakey Trade request story

Whoopee do....he can piss off.

[stevoswan]

Almost 3 weeks and all we have heard is they stay back after a 4 am curfew. No other charges. We have lost Blakey and now Chad Warner wants out. well done Board members by kneeling down to media pressure you have destroyed this club for the next five years.

"and now Chad wants out" Source? Like you need to be asked.

"you have destroyed this club for the next five years". Tell me this CA, what's it like to be throwing tantrums as an adult? Is it somehow satisfying?

They sanctioned the players in two days.....how much 'media pressure' was possibly applied in two days? They did what reasonable people, ie: most of our fans, expected. Then a sad minority got hysterical.

I am sure the club was under pressure but surely not media pressure.

AFL pressure, Corporate Pressure, Sponsors pressure, Board members pressure, Supporters pressure may have been significant.

Warner if leaving will leave for the money. He won’t get endorsement deals in the future at Swans. He was never a guarantee to stay.

Blakey will go as he was thinking of going long time ago. He did not and will not stay because he loves the club.

we should match Warner deal with west coast or wherever he is planning to go and get hefty compensation. We will have the money. Nothing less than 3 first round picks.
We should ask 3 first round picks for Blakey.

Jordon - probably will leave too. Replaceable.
Bice - unsure if there will be takers.

Even if all those players stay - I don’t think they would be the same for atleast 1-2 years

They are all contracted so no need to match

The "media" pressure will see us let them depart for cents in the dollar and members will be happy as it is for our "culture"

That will set the club back, not too mention the further fallout to come against coaches, captain, leadership

[Roadrunner]

If all 5 are contracted players, which I think is the case, then the Club holds all the cards. Sure, if some want to leave, the Club will listen if a great deal is offered from another club. But worst case scenario- if no favourable deal can be done, they can play in our ressies ffs!! GO BLOODS!

I’ve had it with Primadonnas!!

Assuming its not cents in the Dollar, and all the below would be packages.

If Blakey goes to GC
Best case we get McAndrew
Consolation Petracca
Be wary of fringe players after Rosas

He wont go to North with that President
Could try Weitering from Carlton

Wouldn't be surprised if Brissy got interested especially if Bailey and his money goes

[SwanSand]

If Blakey with a 5 year contract with us to GC. They won’t get him without parting with one proven star and a first round pick. My choice - Noah Anderson. Blakey comes with experience in finals and a hole they need to fill.

[SwanSand]

If Chad wants to go to WC they will have to go overs. 3 first picks. Nothing less.

[UUaswan]

Clearly I dont want any to go and would prefer they were lining up today

Whichever way it goes I just hope that truth comes out and the party in the wrong, whether it’s the alleged offender or victim get what they deserve.

Must be amazing to have the crystal ball none of us have.....not to mention absolutely zero faith in the club you supposedly 'support'. Sheese.

Zero faith in anyone that bows down to the woke mob
