GOODBYE MR. CHIP FRAWLEY

[TheoX 1,218]

7 years @ 600k reportedly offered by freo according to SEN.

Surely not.

If that's true we deserve more than just pick 3

[ManDee 7,101]

If that's true we deserve more than just pick 3

We may deserve it but it won't happen, look at the Buddy compensation.

We will get pick 3 as compensation, and we can use it, and by using it I mean as a negotiating tool. All those sides picking after us get pushed down the list, some of those sides will be very keen on a player and may offer a sweetener for us. ie. If MFC doesn't pick Brayshaw at 3 we will trade player X for your 2nd round pick.

[daisycutter 28,727]

We don't deserve pick 3 based on ability/form, but i'll gladly take it any day

anyone saying we deserve more is living in la-la land

[PaulRB 6,110]

Frawley has been at 75% pace all year, and still finished in our top 10 players.

He's good and will add ALOT to a team in contention with the need for a big experienced quality backman.

Its a big loss for us. Denying it is so, won't change that.

[rjay 24,193]

7 years for Frawley, Ross Lyon planning on leaving charred earth at another club when hes done?

They won't care if it gets them a flag.

Absolutely, and I think it's been forgotten amongst all the angst that an in form Frawley is an asset, and although he wasn't predominately used as a full back this year, he is still a premier backman

I can live with the compo right now because of the position the clubs in, but we have to stem this flow of players leaving as soon as they get a wiff of that FA status

[beelzebub 22,724]

Frawleys's been playing at 75% for more than a year..

[beelzebub 22,724]

in deference to those that actually want to play for us

[Sir Why You Little 35,322]

Frawley hasn't played to his alleged capabilities since 2010. He may play to that level with another team. Who knows?

But he won't with us so lets just forget about that.

Roosy could work wonders with Picks 2-3.

Mature player and an elite kid. (Hopefully!!)

If Chip has been offered 7 years at $600,000 p.a. Then he has to take that.

Good luck to him.

[SaberFang 7,141]

Geez, that's a staggering offer. Would be hard to turn down other than the interstate factor. You'd have to set yourself up for life in another city for the better part of a decade.

It's 1.7mil more than Geelong's offer.

Fairly accurate quote from you gramps.

People are worried about the Dees FA effect pppppppffffffffft.

The way footy is going and the bloke who is coaching us,Its a given he will be up to his eras in talks with FA players from other clubs.

Maybe we are the only ones living in this reality.

See ya chipper,thanks and goodbye,roll on 2015 with a new team{as we will every year}.

[Bring Back Barassi 546]

Frawley is massively overrated, couldnt tackle Bontempelli, lost that game for us, half arssed efforts week after week for years now.

Pick 3 is huge overs. Bring it on....

Yes, but you can see why teams would do it...i.e Lake

[Machsy 2,858]

AH THE FENCE, FIRST IN WITH THE NEWS,AS I ALLUDED EARLIER ( SEE MY PREVIOUS POST) SUGGESTING CRYPTICALLY THAT FREO WAS A LATE SUITOR! EVEN BETTER THAN BARRETT , "SHIP IN THE KNIGHT" ANCHORS AWAY IT'S FREO MAKING A LATE CHARGE!

GEE IT'S GOOD TO BE "ONE THE MONEY" HEY MOON YOU STILL THERE ?? what do you make of this one eh?? What's that you say," Fluke" oh yeah fluke! my new avatar" Picket Fluke"

Gee its good to have sources that really do know a thing or two!

Bwah ha ha har!!

Who exactly do you think you're fooling Picket?

I think you'll find that I called it, and called you on your bluff.

I reckon so!

He had one good year in my opinion. His ball handling ability at times is average at best. I say good riddance and replace with someone that can defend and dispose of the ball properly. Its no point being a great defender if you give the ball back to the opposition all the time!

[nutbean 8,837]

, couldnt tackle Bontempelli, lost that game for us,

I believe he is to blame for the GFC and Jack Watts as well. ( I secretly think he is the mastermind behind ISIL)

Couldn't blame him for going for the sort of money being suggested. Can blame him for the [censored] about waiting to see the direction of the club etc and then playing lazy football looking suspiciously like avoiding injury.

He has never shown any leadership qualities and pick 3 will be a great result for us.

[T-34 409]

Pick 3 is great but does it truly replace an 8 year key position backman?

He has 8 pre-seasons behind him, 8 seasons of experience and a fully developed football body.

Pick 3 sees us having to start all over again.

At least I have faith in those using these picks now.

[Ted Lasso 17,318]

Freo has been right in the mix for a long time, and their offer is considerably better than Geelongs by the sounds of things, I really hope/think he will go to the dockers because us getting pick 3 would be win-win really.

not if we trade. Pick 3 is huge currency

Dont know of hes all that.

But definitely the Sandy Freckle of our club.

We don't have to take a kiddie....We have to get some real talent.

Holy Cow "Fremantle offers James Frawley $3 million five-year deal" latest headline from the Herald Sun. Serious money now on offer and way better than Geelong. No thinking needed take the money and run Chip
