I don't know if i've missed the memo or im missing some greater reason, but can anyone give me a valid reason why when:
- Seedsman is half way out the door, Freeman is by all accounts a saint.
Why the Collingwood list management team has made it known they have absolutely no interest in Bennell, Jetta or even Yarran?In Seedsman and Freeman thats alot of pace walking out the door in an already fairly slow side, surely when there is those level of players available for essentially nothing(particularly in the case of Yarran and Bennell)?
I just don't get what im missing here, we are arguably one of the slowest teams in the comp and we are about to get slower yet we aren't even considering these three as viable options? Really i'd like someone elses opinion
You can't do a hell of a lot when a player wants to go home to WA.... Sure, we could throw cash at them. But is Jetta really the kinda player you pay huge money to? A good player, But by no means top 5 at the club, Which is the kind of money you'd have to spend to even tempt him.
Bennell is a headcase, Sure we could turn him around. MAYBE. But Bucks has made it pretty clear since he took over that he is establishing a culture of professionalism. That was clear when the bad boys and whingers were traded out. He would be contradicting himself and making himself a look a hypocrite to the club. Let alone running the risk of poisoning the list with a poor character.
Yarran, Who knows. Maybe we will make a late play. But I think the bottom line is, We are deep in talks with GWS about Treloar. WHO IS THE BEST PLAYER GOING THIS TRADE PERIOD. Once that trade is finalized (hopefully early) Then we know what assets we have available to trade for other guys, Like Aish, Yarran or whomever.
