That's good news. Don't see why he'd go there but if we could get something for him that'd be delightful

Good leader is Broady.

I'm happy for him to either go 1 more year, retire, or get something from Norf for him.

No no no want Broad to stay. We still must maintain a decent level of AFL standard players.

I know we are all about the youth and pick 1 etc at the moment, but would there be any other players from other clubs that would be gettable that anyone thinks would be worth trading in?

Harley Reid?

Money talks. 10 year deal, $15?

Offer Bolton + Baker + P1 to start.

Wouldn’t offer baker and bolton. One or the other. I’m not a fan of the messiah approach to list management.
Chris Judd, Gaz Jnr and Buddy weren’t able to deliver the flag to their clubs but the clubs each of them left were able to win flags by using their trades and salary cap space to backfill really effectively

Reid is the next Dusty and worth every bit of that ....whoever the best player this draft will be, they'll still be a level or two below him......we'd still have enough capitol for at least two first rounders and three or four in the top 30.... :shh

He's the most standout P1 I've seen in years.

Has shown buckets of ability and toughness. Real leadership.

I'd consider it.

Rowell's had injuries but is a gun & will be a star...on the par with Walsh for #1 picks......Reid is a once in a generation freak and a clear level above both of them....been the clear #1 pick since he was 15..... :shh

Your obsession about Reid is duly noted.

But you might need to let it go for a couple of years. WC aren't going to trade him and IMHO he will sign an extension before the start of season 2025
