  1. Surely we would need to establish if he has a "clean sheet" or not before getting too excited and even then have a few weasel clauses ready for any future indiscretions. $600 large is worthy of reasonable due diligence. But I'm sure our recruiters would be all over this.
  2. That's what I thought he said too? I haven't seen anything that says we are over the line. The whole negotiation intrigues me.
  3. If you shoot for the stars, you might just get there. If you shoot to be average you are very likely to get there. Carlton secure Judd, Collingwood secure Ball, Swans secure Tippet and we secured Clark. A lot of things are possible if you have a crack. Might be a waste of time for you, maybe not for others.
  4. Would want an absolute A grade midfielder in exchange. Sloan, Murphy ,(Nths ) Swallow, Cotchin ( no not Martin tks) would do it for me. No interest at all in B graders or multitudes of them. Who knows what Essendon's position might be though and of course minor issue is gaining the pick in the first place. If we get it I hope we trade as tough as nails as it would be a nice position to be in.
  5. Isn't that what we did with Gillies, Sellar and Pederson?
  6. I thought he was waiting to see who the coach was before decision time? Now that a rolled gold " A Grader" is on board it's easy for Jack to pick up the pen. Would seem a bit silly for him to raise a credibility issue. Hasn't got others very far.
  7. Cross is finished , he is bulldog through and through and if there was any decent footy left they would have kept him. In short, we want way better than him. Been a good player for sure but he's done. IMO Sloan, Adams, Swallow far better options and there could well be others.
  8. If you get delist Gillies, Sellar and Davis that leaves you with Pederson as the only bigger bodied back up. You happy with that? I'm not.
  9. Christ Moonshadow first humour followed up by sense. You are clearly lost.
  10. He he he ! Demonland has the capacity to brighten us all up.
  11. Might be a West Australian social sport.
  12. Nice thought but good luck.
  13. Who doesn't fit and who do we have? Mumford,Pike,White, Reid, Jamar. Might be a few changes coming.
  14. Not much conversation, that's for sure.
  15. Colless talks of Swans possible oblivion in 2002. Interesting how the wheel can turn. Also talks of a $200k profit this year after winning the main prize last year!! Eye opening interview.
  16. Think we should have a chill out for a second. Would be surprised if we were taking blokes offsite , carrying out stuff like Essendon. Lets wait a second before the floggings begin.
  17. Interesting. Didn't move to Carlton after our tanking allegations?
  18. I don't get it either. In addition , Davis ( a bloke with a bit of grunt)after two games for a head dropper.
  19. Sad but true. Chucking "snow balls" at City Hall rarely works.
  20. Echo all of that and one club player ( after a little negotiation) to boot. Signs were evident last year, so smart decision and leaves with head held high. Good job, very handy career.
  21. That's the way, lets get rid of a 200 and something athletic forward who is coming along nicely, for an outside midget. Took us an eternity to get anyone over 180 on the list and now we want get rid of them? The midfield is poor we all know that, but lets remain a little sensible how we go about repairing it. Strange as it may seem IMO I don't think we need that much. Viney and Jones are good so we need a true A grader ( or a future A grader) and a couple of others. GWS may be a good starting point and we owe them
