Patience people. Think of it as a marathon. First ten klms people are just finding their pace, next ten they try to sort the men out from the boys, next ten the stragglers are left behind and in the last 10 the rewards come for those that have made their move! Just so long as we don't fall over in the last 2!

I have my wishlist with Santa. He doesn't give those ultimatums

As I said elsewhere The Ox believes we will get Shiel but personally don't want to involve pick 2 in it. Quite a few excellent mids are available, Aish, Kelly, Freeman, etc. if you look at Ollie Wines (don't cry now!) from last year, these guys have potential to make a huge instant impact!

Anyone listen to SEN? The Ox confident we will get Shiel

Nothing like a bit of friendly jocularity! I believe the sen. ass. coach has been decided on. Before that last I heard A Richardson was still in the mix

Yes, keep it! Nathan Freeman (Sandy Dragons player). Could be a gun as early as next year but if we have to wait a year or 2 who cares? I don't think he wants to wait either, like a bull in a china shop!

No longer want to trade for pick 2, want Nathan Freeman! A gun! Saw some vids of him on the weekend, excatly what we need. Could be ready made like Ollie Wines!

Apparently we have spoken to everyone including him so speculation builds. after all it is a big decision!

Yes and I still think it's Crows we will be doing the deal with!

At least we are getting connected to a rumour on there! It seems like everyone giving us a wide berth!

Leave my Howie alone!

Phew! Nice work there. Sounds good to me!

Reported as such out west

I wasn't being serious! It's like throwing in a free voucher for 250 business cards!

Thank goodness thought it was due to my excessive use!

Or to be more precise rp is there a specific formula for working out which band someone will be? I thought it depended a fair bit on length of contract and $$$. If that is the case, Sylvia's 3 year deal at 300k a year aprrox I couldn't see being band 3 on past experience

I haven't seen it anywhere (doesn't mean to say it isn't out there!) but who says Sylvia is band 3?

We MFC or we demonlanders?

Jetta, Nicho, Bail?

Agree! I want more than just Shuey for pick 2 also. But if you look from the other side they are saying they would want more than pick 2 for him and he's not leaving anyway? Somethings gotta give! Certainly don't think Shuey alone worth pick 2! 20 maybe?

You're being a bit funny there guys! I need a laugh, had a big night, fortunately stayed off the computer!

I knew I should have checked them all first! Ball a handy player anyway. Also if you can believe what you read? Shuey will have to be dragged kicking and screaming from the west.

Interesting looking at another website who has gone at pick 2 the last 10 years! Hodge, Cotchin, Coniligio, H Bennell, Naitanui, Trengrove, Gumbleton, Dale Thomas, Roughead, A Walker. A handy group! So do we really want to trade pick 2?

I can't remember if I heard it on SEN but the Saints took a $2mil sponsorship loss due to the off field infractions. Can't remember the exact details

Great call! And surely a guarantee of the head coaching position is better than just being an assistant? Sort of like a full house beating 3 of a kind!
