Yep, absolute winker who thinks he's above it all.

Completely agree. 100% indicative of the generation he is from IMHO. Cry babies

Hmmm yes I blame the parents of this generation for bringing them up all wrong

Yet we are all in favour of 5 and Aish for Beams

Aish has never demanded to be traded we just inquired.

Boyd wants out purely for the reported million a year on offer.

The Boyd, Griffen trade is complete.

Wow.

Wow.

Yea that's a massive gamble by both parties. Either side could come out massive winners or massive failures. I guess it was forced by both players demanding to be traded to either club.

I'd say the dogs are taking the much better risk. If Boyd lives up to his potential, it could solve their long running key forward issue. If it doesn't... they've just lost their captain, pick 6 and also giving up $1m over 6 years!! That's a gamble I would've done for someone like Cameron who has shown he can clearly play to his potential in the AFL. But Boyd?

But....But...when Griffin said he wanted out the Bulldogs said they wouldn't trade, and GWS said the same about Boyd...

They've both let down their supporters! Why would the clubs say one thing and do another?!

Gives GWS 4,6,7,24,40 in the coming draft.

Would 6 or 7 & 24 be a worthwhile trade for 5 & 30?

You'd hope so! I wonder how many list spots they have and whether they even plan on using pick 24.

Probably but I'd prefer 8 and 15.

Wow.

Doggies get pick 6 and last years pick 1 for a 28 year old.

We on the other hand get......oh what the hell, I'm tired, we've been viciously raped and some people on here can't feel it.

I was more worried about whether it was worth it for us. 5, 6, or 7 are all good picks but 24 might offer a significant upgrade to 30.

Beams didn't want to go to GWS.

There's your problem.

We couldn't sweeten the deal with pick 9 either.

It is what it is, we're still getting Moore with pick 5 up our sleeve.

Um, no.

It's 6 + Griffin for Boyd.
