'Cause they don't do 7 year/$7m contracts... Hawkins got paid <$300k this year.
And how much did he pay for the farm Frank Costa sold him. ;)

Did I hear somewhere that we're possibly getting a second rounder and third rounder for Grundy? Someone tell me they're dreamin' and there's something wrong with my ears?

[quote="lazzadesilva"]Yes I think this truly stinks of something being done to manipulate the salary cap. You can’t expect all their players to happily accept 20% cuts to their salaries just to bring in player after player after they have just won the flag. You have to be pretty naive to believe that.

It's never as good/nor bad as it seems...

You're probably right - how much did Swanny pay for his stake in the Albion?

Nah, that involved a different mafia ;) Our club had The Tunnel and a pie shop on Smith St. Besides, remember Collingwood’s disastrous property investment attempt with our previous board?

Interesting listening to Wright's comments on all players potentially linked to us:

Really want Mitchell…
The match day thread is for unfiltered BS knee jerk reactions. The time for level headed comment comes after.

Excellent !
Now demand their pick 7 and we will give them Henry and a little something extra in return.
There’s a Falcon and a Rebel ( western Vic ) in the top eight picks anyway, so they won’t need pick 7. The Cats will just poach them both back to the club in two years time.

I can’t confirm that but with the Dees possibly being surprised with both Hunt and Bedford wanting out, it might be they are now prepared to pay more of Grundys wage. It’s all relative and as disappointing as that all sounds, it doesn’t get approved unless the club sees a benefit in that outcome.

"We suspect that he’s probably going to Melbourne. We’ve had good dialogue with them and we feel that’s where that’ll head.”

Hardly sounds like its the Club who is pushing him out the door...

Sounds like negotiation through the media:
Henry = We want overs thanks geelong
Fiorini & Mitchell = Packet of chips & a coke

On the official GWS AFL website Giants have 39 in the third round and we have 42, 47 and 48. Hopefully we trade 48 for 39. 8)
