Unsigned Pies players

Who are they?

I know Thomas is a above to re-sign but Dawes and Reid are yet to re-sign. Who else is there?

I am hoping GWS recruit someone like McCarthy or even Macaffer instead of the players mentioned above.

Not to worry Asian the whole pay deal and free agency merry go round has held things up quite a bit and I would say we aren't the only club in the position of having players holding back and waiting to see which way the cards fall before playing their hands.

I believe I read an article saying that Dawes fully intended re-signing with the Pies and why would Reid want to leave when he is fully settled in and playing AA form in the best backline in the comp?

I am not worried about Dawes and Reid but I guess I always wonder whether we can fit them into our salary cap. Is it true Sidebottom hasn't re-signed yet?

Leigh Brown just announced his retirement and Luke Ball is on very low pay due to massive front ended contract and there's a lot of young guys so I don't think cap space is an issue just yet.

Also a very good chance that Leon will leave if we win the big dance. Plus with new allowances for the clubs being able to pay their players more for promotional appearances etc under the salary cap it shouldn't be a problem finding the cap room.

Nah still another year till he can fulfill his childhood dream and become a bomber.

Dawes and thomas are deffinite to resign soon. Davis and ben johnson not sure. Caff/carthy hopefully are taken by GWS, as i am very worried ben reid will go at end of 2012. His brother already in Sydney already and his the perfect target for them, and with no real marquee player could offer him the huge dollars he cant get at collingwood with pendlebury thomas swan ect strectching salary cap.

I would not be worried about Dawes as he pretty much said he will stay at the Club.

Though I am bit worried about Reid but He still has a Contract to end of next season

What's Goldsack on?

I'd be furious if he's snapped up by GWS next year.
