Well, that's never going to be demanded! In fact, we only have to beat what Port offer, if we are the preferred option.
What power do Saints have? I would be happy to offer two firsts straight up.
I would but not too sure about the $1.5M salary that's the talk.
 
The reply you were looking for is,
I disagree I think Rob will be fine in 3 years time

or

I agree, Rob will be horrible in 3 years time.
Wrong that's the answer you were looking for!!!

Well, I think it pretty clearly upgrades the ruck position - but only if you're comparing them both when they're fit, and there has to be some risk around Marshall's fitness.
He’s missed 2 games in 4 years though?
 
To get the deal done, I'd offer our first this year and Jordan Butts.
Big oof, cos we'd have to have confidence Murray can play a full season.

And Borlase has been OK the whole time as a backup without being outstanding. Hasn't put a foot wrong really.

Honestly, I'd do it.

Would you be prepared to part with any of these young Vics as part of a trade for NWM?

Jake Soligo
Josh Rachele
Josh Worrell
Nick Murray
Absolultey not.

Makes no sense to lose an A grader to get an A grader.

Are you really suggesting playing Borlase currently in place of Butts he'd have done as well?

Borlase is the very example of reasonable depth, Butts is an AFL quality KPD.

Butts might struggle on Sam Darcy too but Borlase oh dear.

He’s in pretty good form for someone carrying.
Well, he had wrist surgery at the end of last year and a pelvis stress fracture at the start of this year. There's been rumours the last couple of months that he's carrying additional injuries, but he seems to be pushing through. I guess this time of year most players are playing with some kind of niggle.

No I'm saying without Butts we have to play Murray and our depth is Borlase. We probably need another KPD after that.

So it causes a problem, but I'd do it if that offer was on the table. (Which it won't be, cos the Saints would want more).
 
Soligo and Murray may become A graders, but NWM is one now.
Well, you'd trade any of them if it was a 1:1 swap. Saint's wouldn't do that though.

But I thought the proposition was one of those guys + first round picks and other stuff, in which case, it's a no from me.

What was your position when we played Borlase ahead of Butts this year?
I just don't get the bad vibes on Borlase. Almost every time he has come in, he has been ok and done his job. I like him as a player ad i'd trust him to play FB or CHB for us. Maybe the only real knock is his height as he is shorter than the others, but he can play.

:rolleyes:

Are you really coming at me with this shit?

I've made my opinion on the Butts vs Borlase discussion very well known for years!!!
