Current players have committed to join Gold Coast

[Mr Magic]

Thats pretty much my attitude too MM, but then again the compensation would be worth more if was to be gifted a B&F this year. 

Like your thinking al. Better to get something of value in return than nothing.
However given Ablett's worth pick 26, we can expect something around pick 50 for Trent.

Only in the next couple of year MM

this is a joke! my friend messaged me saying in The Age, Cotchin has signed with the Gold Coast?

FFS!

From today's Age......

Ziebell's loyalty (re-signing for 3 years) will intensify the spotlight on other Gold Coast targets, including Essendon's fellow 2008 top-10 draftee, Michael Hurley.

Geelong's Gary Ablett, Hawthorn's Campbell Brown, Richmond's Trent Cotchin and Collingwood forward Travis Cloke have also been linked with Gold Coast, which is confident of luring eight to 10 established players.

See Boak he re-signed with Port as well. C'mon Tigers don't let this drag out, we need to act swiftly before the start of the season or listen to the crap all year about Cotchin leaving....

Why the hell isn't McMahon's name in the Mix??? Wake up GC17!!! He is an absolute gun!! Just look at the tapes of our Round 18 clash against the Dee's. He is a born Match winner!!  Whereas Cotchin is a useless injury ridden hack!!

Ziebell and Boak re-signing puts more pressure on those that haven't.

As we know tiga Jordie is good at losing his opponent and his footskills just need to be seen to be believed

from today's Herald-Sun....

Richmond chief executive Brendon Gale yesterday did not rule out club corporate backers stepping up to help retain Gold Coast target Trent Cotchin.

Cotchin has already been declared as one of Gold Coast's highest recruiting priorities, given his age bracket, skill and leadership abilities.

Gale said the club was confident of Cotchin renewing his contract, and said with the club's corporate clout third-party payments were available to its players.

Gale said Richmond itself could not arrange the payments, but Tigers sponsors or associates could arrange deals through Cotchin and his management.

None of Melbourne, North Melbourne, the Bulldogs or Richmond are believed to have many players with third-party arrangements.

corporate clout? 

we've been 15th/16th for as long as I can recall in terms of corporate income. Only North has been worse in this deprtment.

Media pressure putting 6 names out there questioning their loyalty and honesty plus supporter pressure wanting them to re-sign or worse believing all the media crap and turning on their player because he hasn't re-signed to demiss the speculation.


As far as Tiger corporate backers for Cotch, I believe Ramps is about to set up a new financial advice business in the tax-haven of Bermuda. Send him three easy payments of $49.99 and he'll tell you all about how to make easy money.

Up Yours GC17 

Ramps' new business plan did the trick 

[one-eyed]

GC17 miss out another target!

Crybaby Travis Cloke is about to re-sign with the Pies. The Woods have offered him a 3-year contract but Damir could intervene and make him only sign for two years so Cloke can take advantage of free agency coming in.

Ramps' new business plan did the trick 

which bright idea did i put forward this time?

[mightytiges]

I wonder if GC17 can't get any big name players to come on up whether they become desperate for some experienced players and pay over the odds for them? Even trading for one of their late first rounders or their first 2nd round pick would be worth something to us. Only problem is we don't have much to trade with  .
