Just think how much the Dogs recruiters must be hating life, now they’ve lost the game for pick 11.
They know they will have to eat ■■■■ and take pick 26, probably in the last 5 minutes.
They know we know they have to eat ■■■■ and take pick 26.
But they’re hoping against hope that something miraculously changes.
They will squirm and try and get every other club involved, now watch Connors tell them where to shove it.
I can’t actually work out what the WB are up to this trade period. It seem they are putting all their energy into into stalling the Stringer trade rather than doing anything positive to improve their list.
It is also interesting to note that WB were a destination club for the past couple of years. Not this year.
They are primarily ■■■■■■ because of the management infighting. Jason McCartney doesn’t have a contract, If you believe the rumours him and dalrymple aren’t getting along well. The clubs divided over Stringer with some wanting him to stay and others demanding he goes. Gordon interferes when he likes and has cause some major problems with the Boyd deal.
That was their plan after they had already screwed the pooch. There are 16 other clubs who could have possibly wanted Stringer. Many of those would obviously not be interested in the first place. Of those that are, some don’t even have a first round pick. What would the narrative be if it was say Hawthorn and Geelong who were interested in Stringer. What would the asking price be then?
Eventually he has to live in the real world, he started with a terrible hand, he had a good offer, eventually he will take the best offer that’s out there which will be a second rounder or maybe two.
Connors is an ■■■■, and he puts his clients through hell , but he rarely fails to get them where they want to get. He is making it clear that that bridge is burnt.
What has happened with Harley Balic? I’ve heard nothing this trade period (Any word in Dubbo @Humble_NSW_Fan?).
He might be one with lots of upside for us as a late pick.
