@Tigers_of_Old Ando twitter:
"We have apparently offered Cat's #Gillies a long term deal. How does he get to us? #DanJackson a replacement for Ling? #gotiges #tradeweek"


RT_73 Paul Ager twitter:
"apparently offered a substantial deal to come to us @ $300k per year for 3 years. Best offer on the table so far"

Hazell (manager of Gillies) stated on Trade Week Radio that his preferred destination is Hawthorn.

Not sure what that means.

How much room would Hawthorn or Geelong have in their salary caps?

Not as much as us, hence why we have put the biggest offer on the table (allegedly). May not be about money, maybe he thinks Hawks are a shot at a Premiership next season and they have promised him plenty of game time?

Hutchy was the source of the initial rumour.

Gillies' manager Tim Hazell also said we haven't offered 3 yrs at 300k per year if I heard right.

Hawthorn's first pick is 53 now after trading away their first pick for Gunston. So the only way they could get Gillies is by offloading player(s) to Geelong. Hard to see that happening.

Wonder if it's because the players think that the Dawk's premiership window is well and truly open?
