Yossarian:
Port have apparently committed to taking him as a rookie.
Baffling. He would have been on a good contract at norf, why would he go be a rookie elsewhere?
Robbie Gray may miss some of season with his cancer recovery
Thomas whilst being a rookie can be played automatically without upgrade in senior team after rules changed for 2018
A chance Thomas may establish himself in a team pushing for a flag.
I’m sure something has been worked out $$ wise in terms of north paying some of his contract so he wouldn’t just be on rookie salary either.

Christ, from a pure football perspective, Robbie Grey is an absolute joy to watch play. the idea that Lindsey Thomas could do what he does is baffling. f#ck cancer

Thomas would be hoping to extend his career. The rumour was he had been told opportunity would be limited moving forward.
Agree. Cancer sucks and l hope Robbie Gray is able to kick it, by making a full recovery. The game will be poorer without him playing.

You have to remember that it’s the bottom few players on the list we are talking about here. McKenzie, Trengove and Thomas are no superstars but collectively they are better than J Merrett, Long and Redman.
I still like our list over theirs however you have to evaluate what they are doing with some perspective.

He didn’t kick an afl goal between round 2 and round 23, and hasn’t put in a full blooded chase since 2009: I doubt he’ll get a better offer.

Port Adelaide is the weakest and worst team in the competition. Discuss.
(In an overall general sense of hatred, none of this reality specific upon certain players or etc…)

Seriously though, if they are picking up Trengove, why not Crameri? Get all of them! Yet they get rid of Gus?!
