They certainly are. That’s why the lions have acted (by putting an offer on the table). You have just strengthened my point.

You don’t know the terms of the contract, if they haven’t guaranteed him game time or an acceptable number it’s a hollow gesture. That isn’t truly wanting someone.
I hope the Blues have a chat with him and his management, there is a place for him on our list IMO.

I think it's fair to say Cutler divides opinion between Lions fans. There are quite a few (me included) who think he should be playing every week. He can play. He has already played some very good football at AFL level. The Lions, however, don't believe he is best 22. We can speculate all we want about why. Trade value as a result will not be high. Could very well be an absolute bargain.

I really rate Cutler and am disappointed he didn't get much of a go this year. He has shown how damaging he can be at AFL level. He's a tall winger/flanker with excellent athleticism and a booming kick. He's had plenty of time in the system now and is enterring his prime.
I think if he's given an opportunity in the right team he will flourish. If he's picked up for a 3rd rounder or less I would consider that to be an absolute steal and worth every cent.

I know he’s not the inside mid we need, but would be very happy if he made his way to Essendon.

Seems like the type a Sydney Swans of the past would pick up, play in accordance with their strengths in a strong team environment and they flourish.
Would like to see him given an opportunity at Carlton and glad to hear we are in the mix. Can play a bit from what I've seen.
Probably ends up at Hawthorn. Pick in the 40's.

Does a 3rd or 4th round pick get Cutler done?

Lots of the Lions fans (including me) would like more, but a 3rd or 4th is probably realistic.

Pick 33 would definitely get Cutler to the bombers. I have no doubts about that.

Yeah fair enough. David Noble on trade radio this arvo indicated Ess are at the front of the queue for Cutler. Our 3rd rounder is 57 now so that might be the swap.
Ah thanks mate, I missed listening to Noble’s interview. Unfortunately for us, I wouldn’t be surprised if that was the case. I’d be hoping we would look to package another pic with Cutler for your 2nd rounder, in order to make our way up the draft order if possible. He is a polarising figure at the lions, but I have always rated him and would rather keep onto him than move him on. He looks to be certainly out the door though.

Pick #108 would be my guess. Or a minor pick upgrade

Our trade with west coast seems to indicate we're now happy with our third and 4th round picks. Plus we've said we'll accommodate any trade request.

Don’t know what your academy or F/S situation is like next year so maybe a future pick?

Putting an offer on the table is not the same as having a player contracted. Tom still needs to accept said contract does he not?
