Schultz replaces Ginni, Fin comes in for Adams.

Bianco, Draper, Murley, Ruscoe and Wilson will be replaced by new national and rookie draftees.

If McStay stays fit, then he'll add to our best 23 and take Frampton out of the team.

What we need to address is Howe, Sidy, Pendles, Cox getting older and the possibility of Murph retiring.

I feel like we're taking unders. And it sucks to lose Ginni. I think we'd all feel better if we got something out of the trade.

It seemed to proliferate once it was clear he was being victimised by the umpires over the head high contact incidents, and he's the type of personality that opposition fans love to hate.

There was a young lad called Jackie Ginnivan,
He was out' the side and then back in agin',
The Hawks turn up and said, "we'll fit 'im in",
Poor old Jackie Ginnivan, begin agin'.

If the head high tackle frees for him jump up after he joins the pee and poo watch the public fury from Pies fans.

Just got home and heard Ginni is being traded for swap of second round picks plus other swaps??????

Im echoing the thoughts of a couple other posts here who cant believe the fact we are losing Ginnivan for nothing!!

Is this a joke?? Ill wait to hear the facts on trade radio in a couple minutes but Ginnivan is worth nearly as much as Schultz...nearly as much.!!
