Just listened into Matty Rendel responding on the go home factor for interstate talent. He was very clear that the moment a Vic team selected McDonald or Grainger-Barrass, he believes West Coast would be on the phone talking to the player and his agent saying that we would be wanting him when his contract is up.

So as expected, we say nothing in the media but act hard and fast quietly behind the scenes.

Glad to hear.
 
Everyone makes mistakes and at the very least Elijah Taylor has taken responsibility and admitted guilt. I would much rather a sit down discussion with him and if it went well to have him on the list than stack. Stack coming home is a bad idea.

On a side note mummy's boy Jaidyn Stephenson looks available. I rated him top 3 in his draft year. Had a down year but a good preseason and he could own a wing or HFF position for us. It would likely take brander and out first pick this year or brander and our second next year. He'd also have to agree to move away from victoria so not likely at all.

Also still keen on stoddart as a rookie.
Not there with you on Stephenson. I suggest there is something buried in his character that means Pies will off-load cheaper. I sense Pies are after a bad egg dump.

Or the heart issue is actually an issue. It does seem strange outside of his salary for them to be moving him on. They either have something very big in the works or have major cap issues with first treloar and now stephenson coming up.

You just get the sense that having both Barrass boys in defence would be delicious, don't you BT?

Rendell is a ****ing idiot but.

I don't believe a word of it yet, as rumors go all over the place at this time of year, but have now seen from more than one source that Collingwood are making a massive move to land P.Cripps this trade period.
 
See errrbody, our 49 is now 51 and 54 is now 56.


That's just from two dickheads (Smith and Atkins) moving.

Gonna be in the 60's by the time free agency is finished, and even further back on draft night.

It actually tends to go the other way a bit, because teams preparing for bids stockpile a heap of picks in the 40s that they can lump together for points.

That would be hilarious if they manage it. The last thing they need is an inside midfielder, it is a KPF that they are screaming for. Should have tried harder to get Cameron and should probably look at Brown.
 
Cannot believe the club couldn't afford someone who is on about $400 000.
That's just about an average salary.

JK and Bunger would've taken haircuts on their new extensions.
Bunga especially seeing as his last contract was when he was captain so
he would've been on big coin.
Schoey retired as well.

$400 000 to $450 000 isn't a lot to find.

Spot on.
Good call forgot Schofield.

I seriously hope we are selling how much better it would be be play at WC than Geelong. He really wants to play wing so lets give him that spot.

A midfield of:

Clark Kelly Gaff

Ruck: Nic Nat , Shuey, Yeo

Bench: Sheed, Redden ( Tagger run with role)

Awesome amount of pace , grunt and accumulation. We would have a proper winger to compliment Gaff.

Found it strange that a four club trade involving Clark and Hogan was being discussed. Higgins to the Cats.

Thought the Cats wanted to keep him no discussions to have.

Maybe, the idea is to play Cripps as a CHF - certainly he is capable of doing that - it's all rumours though at this stage. Certainly, Collingwood are up to something.

Stephenson apparently on supposedly 500k. if they moved treloar and stephenson they could land brown and cripps.
 
It seems he is on 400k+ a year. Would mean if Brander goes we need to find 250kish to get him in and under the cap. I cant imagine it would be possible without signing up Clark to a huge long term contract and asking for him to take much less this year. Would be possible I spose but pretty much as unlikely as you are going to get

You arnt moving your list plans around for a guy like Jordan Clark

Please, just stop talking about how we couldnt fit a $400k pa player into our cap. Its $40k above the averaage AFL wage.

It would simply mean a fringe player such as Ah chee, Hutchings or Jetta are not retained and a bit of back endied incentives are added.

Both Freo and West Coast could accomodate that. Add another year if need be.

I would offer pick 30 for Stephensen and that is it.

Mental health issues, Pies in massive salary dump mode. That setting does not land them a 1st rounder or Brander.

Does Geelong not have a cap?

Simple, succinct and slightly cutting.

I think the rumour about Cripps to Collingwood is crap.

Apparently loves Carlton so why would he go to another Melbourne club?
Understand if it was to come back to WA, but not Collingwood.
