Fair chance it'll ramp down over time. That's what's happened in the NRL.
Yep assume so. Enough to keep public off their back, but still slow enough to allow the coackes and players to keep on with little change. If they wait another 2-3 years before another reduction it won't achieve a thing

I do like the fact that I heard Leppa say we are getting draft and trade players in, he actually said 2 to 3.

With the clubs prior comments on 'A-Graders' I wonder who exactly they are talking about and more to the point, will the 'A-Grader' statement bite them in the arse as there isn't a lot of 'A-Grade' trade talent available at the moment that I am aware of except for players who are pretty much already spoken for, ie Danger, Motlop, Treloer etc etc?

Must be some right field potential trades we are unaware of, or not 'A-Graders' such as Bell (even though I am a fan of how he goes about it). Something isn't adding up to me, and I still have my doubts about Tippett although people keep mentioning him, Walker is another and he isn't a A-Grader yet, Suckling is good but is he a A-Grader..... I hoping for another Christensen moment an that was bloody exciting at the time.

Unlikely to happen, but I'd take Stevey J for a year or two. It can never hurt to bring in a player with an abundance of finals experience, we could play him at FF in 2016-17 to take some pressure of Freeman/Schache etc.

Is Tippet available?

Possibly, I doubt we would go for him though. Doesn't really fit the age of our list. I'm not saying every player has to be under 25 to fit in, but given the coin that Kurt would undoubtedly desire, it's probably not the right fit for us.

Would help out our young Fwds massively

gee apparently gws offerred geelong one of their top 10 picks for stevie j last year, which they knocked back.

must regret it now


I don't think that's right.

The version of events I've heard (a few times) is that the offer came at the eleventh hour in the Trade period. Geelong contacted StevieJ with the GWS offer (which also included lots of $$$$$) but SJ was so pissed at the time that he didn't really comprehend the situation or thought it was a practical joke.

I think if anyone's kicking themselves now it's probably SJ

Anyone watch the skins challenge. Greeny looks pissed off with Dawson in regards to the oreo thing

Yep, l noticed that as well. Didn't like it, thought he took it too personally. Have seen a few of Greeny's videos and he does seem, imo, to have an abrasive personality.

Classic how Dawson just dominated them. Yeah Greeny cops it from the boys about his sweets haha. He is just a guy who doesn't cop it well I reckon.
 
I think in regards to junk food.. he has copped it a bit

Maybe I shouldn't have told him to put the sausage roll down at the function, sorry guys.
