In hindsight I was naive to do it but I sent Tom Boyd a letter with a 50 cent coin in it and pretended that I was a 6 year old kid giving up my pocket money in the hope he would come to Carlton. Okay, so potentially some Bulldogs kid put a 50 and two 20's in his but it still isn't right!!! :mad:
Are you serious? That is hilarious

Scully laughed all the way to the bank.

Everthing was set up perfect for him. The timing he was drafted, the rules at the time, when his first contract expired. A unproven player of his talent should never have got the contract he did. There was no way he could say no to it. He essentially won the lotto.
He sure did.

And who amongst us doesn't think he's an average (in a footballing sense) mercenary?

Had he gone there and done a GAJ we'd all be banging on about his vision and drive to build something from the ground up etc…

If you make the call, be prepared to wear the consequences if it goes arse up.

Why has pick 7 depreciated in value?

If GWS wants too hold Boyd, they need it more to offer an acceptable alternative deal.

If they are willing to lose him they still need to deal with us, because Jaksch is gone, and therefore will want the pick 7 deal more then pick 28.
