Redleg

No need to, we will keep it as we need it.

Silly boy, should have kept his mouth shut. Has just admitted to lying to everyone. Didn’t need to say anything. Shows he is not the smartest cookie in the packet. Anyway, wish him well personally, but I hope Freo never beats us while he is a Docker.

Our F1, Freo F1 and new one you suggest by trading 3 seconds for Grundy and their F1.

Wow!

That would give us three F1st in a strong draft and at a time when we will have salary cap room, to make a big play for someone.

That's just incorrect. They also had North F2 and F3 and still have them.

What 27 for Grundy? Isn't that our offer?

Not quite, they had North F2 and F3. We could have at least got the North F2.

Well maybe not until the 2023 draft and trading is completed and even then, maybe not until any draftees we take in 22 and 23 form is exposed, in another few years.

I would hope that at least that F2 is the North one.

I'm the original Redleg.

He is a nice guy. Wish him the best. It's funny that the side he is going to, has so many talls.

I think we will now see a strong draft pick hand next year and salary cap room, as well as slightly improved picks this year.

Whatever Weid is on, the replacement will be on less. I still see this as getting a lot of future picks and salary cap room, for a big play next year and maybe in the process, improving this year's 2, but now maybe 3 picks.

Grundy hasn’t been done, because Pies are hoping for more than 27.

Hilarious. Speaking on SEN, Dockers great Paul Hasleby backed up club list boss David Walls’ claim that if a player nominate to return to Victoria, they shouldn’t be able to choose which club.

I don't think that is quite right. We keep trying until Wednesday morning to get more, say that North F2. If Freo keep refusing, we ring LJ/Manager and say we are trying to help you get to the club you want, but they are not budging. We ask him/they to apply some pressure, and we are happy to have him back for a season and try again the following year. We tell him we obviously value him more than Freo do, so now it's up to you guys and them, our hands are tied. In the end Freo have promised him a fat contract and to get him traded by us and they need to get the job done, or lose him and all credibility in a massive fail. Plenty of other players and managers would be watching on. LJ said he won't go into the PSD. We will rely on that. Therefore it's us or them. We have bargaining power.

You mean when kids weren't spoilt and entitled.

The game ceased being a sport years ago and is a business and like so many businesses, there is corruption. That said I was pushing for us to try and get him.

Would we look at Brayden George for a pick in the 20's? Just done an ACL, but a very talented player who kicked 11 goals in his first two NAB games this year. 185 cms and big bodied and compared to Tracc. Let him have 2023 to rehabilitate and could have a very good medium forward.

Bowes is not going to accept that. Maybe more like $600k per year for 3 years. He gets another year and another $200k.

Pity, he was one I thought could kick on and his height and versatility would have been handy.

Not wasted, it stopped us talking about Hunter.

But you once thought of him as a white knight on a steed.

Yes, I made a mistake thinking Turner needed an upgrade. I wonder if we would take Rosman as a rookie if available.
