Tom Stewart in his 3rd year is returning to training the same time as Kelly. Is the boy from South Barwon also heading to Perth? Would explain why he's starting pre-season late...That’s a convenient cover story.

Menegola, Stewart and Kelly all return on the same day. All three headed to Perth I guess?Tom Stewart is all Australian, so can get it that he is fit enough. He is also older.
Kelly, however, is not all australian and has only done one preseason with cats.
But sure. Best one was when cats statement and fans tried to add menagola into the mix as though he is a 1-4 year player.
Oh the giggles that day. Fantastic.
You've played yourself nicely here. The first two lines are betrayed by the rest of your shite.
If you didn't know any better, with the carry on post-draft by the Weagles fanbase, you'd be forgiven for thinking they aren't all that happy with those 'super' picks 20+22.
Tim Kelly or two second rounders? I think we all know deep down which one we'd prefer.
Fair enough, was simply saying if the WCE contingent weren't constantly telling everyone how happy they are with their middling picks, you'd be forgiven for thinking this Kelly drama is still at the forefront of their mind. At least now we know you lot are rapt and not at all bitter about Kelly remaining at Geelong for 2019.Eagles fans are rapt with the draft haul and pick upgrades.
He doesn’t want the draft either so the weagles will be forced by HQ to cough up.

Not bitter at all...
You keep telling yourself that.
But in reality you know Wells has run a total root here.
Let the good times roll on.
Sure we all think Wells is a campaigner but hey we came out on top at trade and draft time after winning the premiership.
They just proved the value of 2nd rounders so realistically that's the max they will offer next season.
West Coast list is looking really solid and they will be 10 times more keen on Coniglio than Kelly and may well need to trade for him.
Could see the Eagles offer their 2019 1st + 2020 1st for Cogs and their remaining two 2019 2nds for Kelly.
Why will he have more negotiating power in 2019? And the answer can’t be that he is out of contract. Because that means jack s**t.And yet he didn't. Don't suppose he will in 2019 either, he will have more negotiating power than he did in 2018.
Please explain why he will be cheaper in 12 months?Correction Tim Kelly for another 12 months.
Or three 2nd rounds in 2018, the Eagles 2nd rounder in 2019 plus upgrading your 2019 3rd to the Swans 2019 2nd. All of which would contribute to Geelongs list for years to come.
That's actually how it panned out and thankfully the Eagles banked those players and pick upgrades and didn't sell the farm for Kelly who they will likely get in 12 months a hell of a lot cheaper.
So its pretty obvious you didn't think that 'deep down' on what Wells turned his nose up to.
Eagles fans are rapt with the draft haul and pick upgrades.
What are the other options? I assume you are referring to going back into the draft?Hinkley29 Contracts mean jack s**t if a club wants to trade a player and the player doesn't mind leaving. If a club does not want to trade a player, or a player does not want to be traded, either can hold the other to the contract they originally agreed upon. If there is no contract, both club and player have other options.
so looking forward to Geelong putting their best foot forward and attempting to do enough to get the family to stay. It’s quite simple for the club. Put a proper pastoral care plan in place and offer Tim a 5 x $1 million deal. Why that amount? It aligns with the value we hear he brings to the club and the trade value Wells thinks he’s worth.
Then we will see whether Geelong were just flocking with Tim or are legitimate
Exactly. You wanted the end round 1 compo pick 20, pick 22 and Eagles first round 2019. That is serious currency. Sounds like you see him as a top drawer talent.Name another $1,000,000 player traded without a top 22 pick being involved
Me saying he has more bargaining power next year is my opinion, based on a variety of factors. Equating it to simply whether a player has ever walked to the draft is disingenous and frankly I have better things to do than defend your strawman.What are the other options? I assume you are referring to going back into the draft?
How many established players have ever taken their chances in the draft?
Exactly. You wanted the end round 1 compo pick 20, pick 22 and Eagles first round 2019. That is serious currency. Sounds like you see him as a top drawer talent.
Now that you have identified him as your elite talent at Geelong, please do the right thing and offer him a contract that financially reflects your valuation.
Clear or, as the say in Shawshank, am I being too obtuse?
Forced to cough up?
How?
