10-15 "big fish"?
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

not prepared to define "lots" in advance?

Well go through the list of players supposedly moving clubs, as a minimum I would say 10-15 players movements by the end of this period.
Big Fish or players in total?

Sorry my bad, I thought we were talking about trades all up.
As for big fish, if you count free agents I can count 4😉

It will be more than 10 to 15 but the original question was about how many big fish would be traded.
Then the debate about what qualifies as a big fish should be had.

Well, if we get Yarran, one of perhaps only 6 big fish to move clubs then we have done well?

yarran and bennell i wouldnt call big fish.

carlile and henderson arguably are.

it is of course a subjective term.

Both are pretty good players, but i wouldnt put them in the same class as danger or treloar.

Oh yes, I know we are referring to big fish but how you look at big fish compared to everyone else will of course be different.

Dangerfield
Treloar
Hernderson
Bennell
Tomlinson
Hampton
McCarthy
Leuenberger
Bell
Sellwood
Suckling
Sinclair
Howe
Dixon
Seedsman
Anderson

So those are a few, bar about two, the rest would be in our best 22. So it depends how you look at a big fish, all I know is we will miss out on all of them.. :snidegrin

No i wouldn't either. But I wouldn't have many on WATs list a big fish either. Potential to be a big fish perhaps but not yet.. But my idea of a big fish may be differ to others.

Ok then, like I said it depends on how you look at the big fish....so...this lot would get a start at any club!! IMO of course. Anyone of these would be considered a big fish to me if the landed at the RFC.

yeah its a subjective thing but anyone we dont get isnt much of a criteria
