David Mundy had been offered 750k in a front ended contract by us, 3 years in total, adding up to 1.6mil, he wants to be back in victoria and Essendon have offerred him 600k for his first year then his total being around the same figure 1.5 to 1.6 mil, its up to which club can satisfy freo the best.
Hes a good player but if we miss I wont be losing any sleep!
It's the cost in terms of picks that will be the deal breaker rather than $$$ you'd reckon. Freo will want at least a first rounde pick so pass.
Rance has Been thrown up expect a 3 way deal to be involved which ever club is involved.
This is good
Pick 6 to Freo
Foley or Jacko plus Rance to Eagles
Pick 4 and Mundy to Richmond
Nup can't see that happening. No way will the Eagles give up pick 4
Hawthorn has enquired on Rance again,
I dont care who takes him if he leaves and we do a good deal its a bonus
We'll take their pick 19 if it's on offer
Tambling has been seriously courted by the lions Jade Rawliings absolutely loves him, Sherman has been mentioned as well as there 2nd pick weather its both or either i dont know.
a player and a pick is a good deal, the question is is Sherman right player for us!
Sherman = pass!
MacGuane has been courted by the Suns and a pick from 15 or less has been mentioned,
Id take 15 in a heartbeat or 19 & 21 anyway McGuane leaving is good for us salary cap wise and helps us list wise
Given we're paying the bare minimum 92.5% the salary cap is a non-issue for us. McGuane would be pushing us up to the required minimum in fact. I agree though Ramps I'd take pick 15 in a heartbeat as well.
Polo has been sought out by sydney dont expect much in return.
Has been around a long time and done nothing for us - a pick around 50 would suffice
We'll get nothing for him unless it's a swap for Houli
. Deano will more likely to end up a rookie at another club at best.
also expect us to be seriously trading for picks in the top 20 and we are going all out for west coasts pick 4, a big name player has been offerred. Jack delideo cotch and martin are the only untouchables.
This is real good news
Foley or Jacko have been doing the rounds as the rumoured "big name". I still can't see any club let alone the Eagles give up their first rounder inside the top 10. The Hawks and Blues may give up theirs (picks 18/19) at best according to the papers.
pick 6 will not be traded under any circumstances and until 2 weeks ago had Heppel done and dusted, quietly rejoicing believing they got away with picking a future superstar, now its apparent he wont even get past pick 5, Francis Jackson has been tabbing him for 3 years.
keeping pick 6 is great news, pity about Heppel maybe he makes it through 6 maybe we get 4 and get him and someone else as well.
Keeping out first pick is a must.
We have our sights on drafting a darkhorse late in the Draft, we have kept him hidden.
Always good to see this- hopefully it works out
We hear this every year. I find it hard to believe players can be hidden these days given the recruiting resources of all the club. If we have someone "hidden" you'd expect it to be more like another Nason or Webberley type.
