I heard we were being smartarses with the doggies over the deal and they came back and said something to the tune of "do it our way and we won't put a bid in for Brown and Daicos"

We're holding out for a pick that could be useful in landing Brown and Daicos. Dogs have a number of deals that will get them picks in the 50s and we want one of those.

Will almost certainly end up being an exchange of picks which moves up one of ours so that it can be used for Brown or Daicos.
Well done boys!

Wonder what it will do for his confidence knowing he's now only worth a 50's pick, at best! Wow, if you'd have told me that pre '16 I would've thought you were nuts! What the hell happened?

Everyone keeps talking about these magic beans Cloke's worth but no one nominated what sort of beans yet.
Are they coffee beans, Lima beans, soya beans or a different sort of bean ?
I think we need some sort of clarification before we go taking just any beans

Our problem is that the Dogs don't really need Cloke, whereas we need to get rid of him to provide the salary cap space for new players. Unfortunately no other club has expressed any interest in Cloke at all, which means we have virtually no bargaining power.

NO, they are quality imported, Jack and the Beanstalk variety, guaranteed to take us higher and higher, if you get my drift. 8)

Maybe. I'd say age would be some factor although it does appear the eagles got a bargain, even if he plays just the one year.
