Half the team would be carrying niggles as this time of year. It’s a calculated risk

Not that I can recall but I assume Merrett will be the 1st. I do think Trac is better than Merrett but his Tracs wage is the issue

His manager would have been speaking to other clubs since his exit interview. If he didn’t expect it to get out then he is very naive.

When will it be formally announced?

He will be a good pick up, does definitely have some forward craft and with no sub next year I reckon he will play most games

I don’t disagree but I think this year showed we can’t role with the same mids. I think 1 has to go to allow for a different mix. People talking about the draft being weak is not necessarily correct. It just doesn’t have the top end talent of last year but is very even.

I like your theory but I don’t see us getting 2 first rounders for Trac. If a team absorbs his wage, I reckon it will be 1 first rounder at best.

The draft is not necessarily weak but just doesn’t have the top end talent as last year.

His value doesn’t go up after 30

Regardless of what you choose to believe but Trac 💯 tried to leave last year.

I don’t think Morris makes stories up and I dare say might have some contacts within the Trac camp. Kings feet have only just gone under the desk, so the next 2 weeks will tell us.

I heard today that Bucks was not even in the top 2 preferred candidates

I think I read that they only just moved back to Qld

If we were in the finals race, I doubt we would have a new coach

We can only wish

I reckon he’ll be with us next week. Can’t see him riding out the season with the Cats

Last 6 years - pick 11 X Lindsay Connor O’Sullivan (developing big man) Ollie Hollands Nasiah Luke Pedlar Sam Flanders Not sure we lose much if we had 1 of these instead of McVee

If they offered pick 11, I grab it and run 💯

Because of 1 season? Give the bloke a break

I don’t disagree but there was absolutely no passion in his voice but as others have said maybe I am just reading to much into it

It wasn’t overly inspiring

That’s rubbish, it’s perfect timing to come in to learn from the master. Campbell will be 3rd in line not 2nd and Heath has shown he can play forward. The fact there will be no sub next year, will also the enable teams to play 2 rucks

He never really dominated at VFL level did he? I think if they can’t look a class above in the VFL then they are no chance at making it at AFL level

I think he is a very likeable player which is why Saints fans probably overrate him. He has some good attributes and will be a very handy addition but not necessarily a needle mover

💯 SOS is an average player at best and is lucky to play 10 games per season.
