    Do you think they'd hurry up and get him signed?

    Everyone else on the list can be traded.
    Sinkers is contracted to 2020.

      The first loss was with the best sports Dr - Nathan Gibbs. Since then we have lost asset after asset and gained dodgy choices to fill positions. Really, our forwards coach with absolutely NO coaching experience (Cats mate), ruck coach with not a lot of coaching under his belt and now, another Cats recruit in a major role in our admin area.

      We've lost players and coaches like nobodies business since he arrived, starting with the good Doctor. What has he brought to us except for a clear demonstration of empire building.

      Cannot reveal sources but I too have heard morale is at a low.
      Empire building.......an interesting concept. History tells us when leaders built empires, their brief was 'strength' to build and protect the empire. But your implication is that he's weakening our empire.....hardly 'empire building' then is it? Please explain your concept of 'empire building' in Harley's case.......

        Re contract expiries, Darcy Cameron’s contract was extended till end 2019.

        And re Sinclair I think he is on a 4-year contract, so till end 2019 (just to add to the confusion) but can’t find a definitive answer.

            You are correct with the feedback, thanks.

            My point is, it's been pretty much Harleys way or no way. Empire? Fiefdom? Trial and error? Whatever, I don't think he is good for our "bloods culture" by any stretch of the imagination.

            I truly hope time will demonstrate I am completely wrong, I really do.

              That would be three years Annie, contracted to 2021?

              Gee you're tough on the youngest player in the AFL, for a bloke with puppy fat he clunked some great contested marks!

                  His marking? You're kidding right? Nothing wrong with his marking at all.

                    New man wants out so from that list I'd be happy to move on

                    James Rose
                    Jordan Foote
                    Jack Maibaum

                    Nic Newman
                    Toby Pink

                    I'd want to keep...

                    Dean Towers - if we lose all of the above, be is the best of the bunch to keep (we can lose *everyone* )
                    Jake Lloyd - obviously
                    Harrison Marsh - definite depth player
                    Robbie Fox - something about him I like and see him evolving
                    The difference between insanity and genius is measured only in success.

                      Robinson worth keeping.
                      Towers is too old and out of favour

                        Empire building doesn't work in the AFL. Once the cracks show the coach gets ditched.

                            I keep my a list here on RWO (2018 - Sydney Swans RWO Wiki, 2018 AFL Season List), and sometimes I do miss contract extensions. Cameron was an oversight.

                            I found sinclair on this list as 2018 expiry as well. Sydney Swans AFL Player Contracts
                            (Footywire list is the same as mine for 2018 expiry)

                              +2. Without the injuries he’d have played 2-3 games max. Always gave a contest and pulled in a few great marks.
