Won’t be low cost Norf are into him and they will pay anyone.

If Polec is getting 750k from them Hall would have to be close to that also
Hard to imagine a fringe player at a basket case like GC commands top dollar...

But then, we are talking Norf who resemble a drunk at a nightclub when its 2am and ugly hour commences...we've all been there.

What are people's thought on Aaron Hall?

I dont mind him as a low cost option.
Would be a fan if he was 2-3 years younger.

Also, just saw that Michael Rischitelli has played 19 games for the Suns this year and is averaging 10 disposals. Wtf is that? No wonder they’d be throwing silly money at Wallis.

Teams have to pay 95% of the cap. With fewer players available, that's more free cash for diminishing returns. $750k for Polec?

Lycett will probably earn more from the Saints, they're into him big-time.

They're absolutely panicking. The board knows that they have to do something within the next two years and are throwing everything at the wall.
The board had a chance "to do something" at the start of this year when they had their fork in the road 'McCartney' moment, yet they squibbed it and folded in the face of some tepid media pressure and re-appinted the black hole of charisma and game day coaching that is Alan Richardson for another two years. I can only presume that these amateurs had just watched Damien Hardwick bumble along for 5 years before finally discovering the magic formula to success otherwise known as the Beveridge approach to man management and thought that it would also just happen for them as well. I'm clearly no expert, however I just can't see the same happy ending ever eventuating down at Moorabbin and Im actually ok with that.

They were awarded pick 30 which is a 2nd rounder but forfeited it by signing Rockliff I believe. If he was worth a 2nd rounder and wasn’t even getting a game then surely we get a 3rd rounder for Roughy
If Roughy gets an "attractive" offer, then maybe we get a Rd 2 compo pick?
