So basically what he's after is $$$$$$$. Can a Victorian club outbid GWS?

Wouldn't want to be spending a heap of our cap on Palmer. He's a good player and I know we have room, but Id rather be going for what we need.
 
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Character and Kicking, remember?

I'd even go as far as to say that Sheds has more upside. Certainly a better bloke. It's a forgone conclusion that Palmer is a Giant. This is just because they can't officially announce it til tomorrow.
 
Another Left footed half back/winger is the last thing we need. And to be fair the ones we've got, have better left foots.

didnt know the couldnt annouce til tomorrow. ward has already said he's goin :confused:
 
Apparently he has told the Dockers he wants out to seek better opportunities elsewhere. Well if he was fit he would have played many games this year especially late as their injury list was very long. I would be very surprised if his better opportunities didn't equate to his attempt to get as fat a wallet as he can and then worry about footy. For example both Grigg and Houli were both chasing better opportunities to play and worrying about their wallet second.:thumbsu:

We don't need a bloke like Palmer (or Scully either) we need players committed to playing footy and wanting to be part of a successful team effort. If they do that to the best of their abilities then the money will take care of itself:thumbsu:
 
Solid work from his management putting in the "or an offer from a victorian club" hook....ground out a few more dollars.

Kid's a giant. End of story.

My thoughts are he will be at GWS and the mention of a Melbourne club showing interest is simply to fatten the offer from GWS.

This.


*IF* he comes good from injury, he'd be a valuable pickup and I wouldn't mind him at Richmond, but I don't want us to pay the $'s/making the required trade to make it happen.

I disagree with you there! Would give up choice 14 in a heart beat for him. He is the missing piece to us having a truly great midfield!
 
Pick 14 will be used on a KPP this year not a mid so High Ho The Merry O The Farmer is a Giant.
Is that a guess or inside knowledge?

Palmer would be better than some of the hacks getting games but u wouldnt want to give up much for him. Let GWS have him.

midfield first priority then ruck ,this kpp you r talking about better b an out and out gun or the rfc recruiters r dumber than what we all think.

I was led to believe we would try to trade for our missing needs ie: ruck and defender, our first draft pick is for the best midfield type going (ie: we aint trading pick 14).
 
So that basically means we are going after a crap, stop gap ruck like Maric. Because we are not getting a Clark/e without trading that #14.

I dont think either 1 of those clarks will improve us as much as another good young mid and maric in the short term so we can get our free agent ruck next year or 2 .we desperatley need a competent experienced ruck for next year so we can develop further, the clarkes although would b a huge upgrade on gus and browne still wont cut it next year in the ruck.
