  1. I would leave the Weed in because he will take Moore out of the game more. BBB is not good enough for Moore and poor old Van Rooyen is being tossed in at the deep end. What ever the case Mr Moore will be twinkling his diddlestick all week over his next opponent.

    You may be right about the amount but 10 years ago Scully got 6 million over 6 years with $2Million in his first year (a signing on bonus?)

    My opinion is that Jackson has got a big offer on the table (who knows how much?) and it's more a matter of closing the deal (between the clubs) I may be wrong but there's a lot of smoke so the fire can't be far away

    Remembering that we got what we wanted from Freo in the Hogan deal (pick 6 & 22 turned into May & Sparrow) so the relationship is established with that club (at least somewhat)

    Langdon was secured from Freo for a swap of 2nd round picks and we gave them a future 2nd rounder ... the deal was done with a minimum of fuss as I recall

    What's your opinion?  Is Jackson going or staying?

    Probably going but not too sure. Why can't he be traded to Wet Coke ? If it is just a matter of going home then a better deal can be done. No matter what our relationship with freo is we have to look after no1 and I believe Wet Cokes first pick and a decent player like Allan would be the best option.

    So what do reckon the offer might be? (if indeed, he is getting an offer elsewhere)

    I would not have a clue but that amount (10.5) sounds like something from Alice in wonderland. It is way too high.

    He's still only 20 years old and if the $10.5Million offer over 8 years is real, he'll know he's going to get that sort of money as it's then only about getting a deal done

    And those offering the money have almost certainly told him that a deal will be done - somehow

    So, at 20 years old, with that sort of money forthcoming, how is it not a distraction?  It would be for a RFA who has been in the system for 8 years

    I believe you are right, rjay, because if anyone at the age of 20 had 10 x 1st Division Tattslotto prizes on the way and guaranteed, one would be like a cat on a hot tin roof

    He won't want to get injured either but he doesn't appear to be avoiding contests

    Trouble is, he's not getting to enough contests

    At his best he has a very good (not quite manic) attack on the ball.  We're not seeing that apart from in the Lions game

    We all love money and I know how I'd be if I had that sort of money coming my way

    I believe that the 10.5 million over 8 years is a complete load of [censored].

    The biggest problem is we continually get out to 20-30 point leads and then decide that’s enough and lose all desperation.

    Exactly right. And that comes down to mental fatigue. We struggle to play out 4 quarters of footy.
