I was referring to his drop in form this year.

which is similar to his inconsistent form @geelong is my point.
His good is good, but when MIA is totally unsighted

Ab       
ps: Paddy Dow - 18 possessions 3 marks 2 tackles (doesn't sound too bad)

Interestingly,  the CFC website normally has best players and goal kickers after their match report….. but that has been removed!!!  It may have made for embarrassing reading!!!

Our Contracted / Un contracted thread shows him as "2021+?", so I'm not sure how long his contract is.

I am responsible for updated that thread.

When i write '+?' next to someone it is when  someone comes across from another club but the club doesn't say how long it is for.
So for Fogarty, at a minimum he was contracted for 2021 (obviously, he just came across!) but he could potentially be under contract for longer depending on what his actual contract was.

In short, we don't know.
I've never seen anything to suggest otherwise with him.

So after last weeks absolute sh&tshow, Dow is the one that gets the chop!!! 

Out Murphy Dow
In Cripps Fogarty

I saw Dow being dropped and i was immediately reminded of the 'we have offers unders' for Dow rumours.

Putting 2 and 2 together.....Dow has had enough, wants out, has a suitor and is on the way out the door. Thus, no need for us to play him.

Nothing else makes sense to me.

Tend to agree....you would sign improving talent like Dow by now to keep other clubs away.
Hope we dont want to get a pick in to help pay for Cerra...

Send Paddy Dow to Tigerland to play with his brother.
Take their first pick back.
Use our first 2 picks at the draft (2x top 10's) and take the best players available, specifically the best young pure KPD. Not some hybrid, or some forward who could play there. I was a set and forget Weitering type.

If we must get Cerra, swap for SPS and be done with it.

Dow for Cerra? No way.

Media rate Cerra as two first rounders...I believe Richmond have two first rounders so they could afford to use one for Dow.
Agree on set and forget KP players, no more he might turn into X Y or Z we want the real deal up front.
IMHO I think it would be SPS and a first rounder for Cerra as the Freo asking price..I also think Fisher will feature in trade talks as well.
