Is Graham Wright staying?

[BOP66]

Heard on SEN -Greg Denham that he's as good as gone to Carlton? I don't rate this journo just like many!
Anyone here know if this is definite? I haven't seen it anywhere else. Appreciate any info.

 

[Jaeger]

They are throwing big money at him but he is contracted to us.

 

[Tasmaniac]

I thought this was done and dusted a couple of months ago.

Don't tell me the paper baggers have come back with a bigger bag?

Apparently.

It would be a disaster to lose him just before this year's trade/draft period.

 

[Hodginator]

Apparently there's a deal with VISY as part of the package.

 

[Brishawk]

Carlton probably changed his title to 'Master and Commander of list management and rexcruitment thus giving him a promotion which is current contract may not stop him leaving for . . .

 

[Glasgow Hawk]

Is this like the rumour that Mike Sheahan started last year in GF week about Clarko going to WCE???

Anyway, if he goes, he goes.. What can ya do?

He gets to take out the rubbish every night for a nice little sweetener.

 

[Hodgey 15]

If this eventuates, the timing is not ideal to say the least.

 

[Xtreme]

Ahh so Carlton have switched from copying Collingwood to now copy Hawthorn.

 

[Hodgey 15]

There is a bit of chat over on Carlton rumour board about this. Lot of speculation - some seem to think they know what's going.

 

[Kuuz]

Carlton celebrate getting Wright until they realise they used all total backroom-staff AFL-enforced budget on one man....

 

[MrFujiMoto]

I hope he is. Good recruiter but I am sure there are a few others that are in the wings that are just as capable of stepping in if he goes. He has been better than the Pelican if you ask me.

If he does get an offer we could enforce he stay here as it is a similar position, not a higher position. Did we up our offer a couple of Months ago.

 

[BOP66]

So it's still just speculation & here say? No one knows for sure?
Just over these stories & no the timing will not be good.

 

[Loramarthalas]

Seems a little strange, doesn't it? Why would we pay him so much to come over as a list manager? He's a recruiter, first and foremost. We already have one of those. Sounds like we'd be paying him a lot to choose who to delist. Hmmm... not sure if true.

I was listening to SEN but I dont think its was Denham who said this, it was a callers rumor so I doubt it carries much weight.

 

[The Kipster]

1yr left on his contract, has done a super job with our list management, if he chooses to go then so be it

 

[QuietB]

Denham is one of the most annoying people on radio. I have been waiting for somewhere to vent about him. He is an obnoxious flog of the highest order.

 

[Roddy27]

It was a callers rumour.

A rumour being rehashed about hawthorn prior to a big final.

Shock effing horror. Shock... effing... horror.

 

[Hodge2NormSmith]

Wait until Precious Sheahan nails this years big GF week rumour, Clarko to coach Man U...

I love when Clarko calls him Precious.

 

[GOHORCS]

They would need someone like Wright there before they would be able to manage a deal to secure Wright. Maybe that is what they have done. Employed him to get the ball rollingon a deal to secure himself from hawthorn while he is at hawthorn and then hopefully the deals he is doing with hawthorn and good players will automatically happen at Carlton..............Then the lights came on and Mick Malthouse was first to speak. "I am sorry Mr Dank, that sort of bullshit might fly at essendon but we work with realistic ideas, we take a brown bag and we put cash in it, the player or coach tells us when to stop and at the end we tell Jeannie Pratt how big the media special has to be to show the world how much work he is doing for Visy for that money!"

 

[Davo-27]

well i would hate to lose Wrighty, but it may clear up our off-field salary cap thats being introduced soon......

 

[Hungry Hawk]

We dont need Wrighty.

There are plenty of great recruiting experts wright here on Bigfooty.

Big Moose... You're up!
