If we have a war chest get proactive and throw big money at erasmus

Won the Simpson medal for BOG yesterday. 26 possies and 2 goals.

Very balanced and smooth player.

How did Bo Allen go in the wafl granny?

Apart from money to the player how do we satisfy Freo with draft picks, they might be a little dirty on Henry coming over from last year.

How many games did Henry actually play this year- can't bothered looking it up. I hope he stays injury free next season as he is an X-factor player we need.

I just drove past the hawks new facility. Talk about being in the middle of no where. A few sad looking houses and industrial sites. Seems like a fail to my uneducated mind.

Can’t see why a couple of builders start placing a few broken pieces of fibro cement, someone will claim it’s asbestos & shut any building on there for another 10years.

Nasty I know but it is Hawthorn

Push them. Freo are well documented to be under cap pressure.

Erasmus and brayshaw are coming out of contract. Go hard at both.

I think erasmus is gettable.

Im all for it but i think we might have a different definition of "big money" what sort of deal are you talking about?

Bell hopper isn't easy to convince

 

[Greshs Eye]

Most Freo supporters that I know felt Erasmus was going to have a break out year, this year. Not sure what happened but I think Freo will be very reluctant to let go of him.

He's on the way out. Been side stepped.

I'd do 800k p.a.

We wanna stretch freo.

Dont hate it, i think provided we have enough left to have a proper raid at an LDU/Brayshaw whatever im down for it

 

[St Muir]

Debuted 7 years ago. Close enough to 100 games. Half back/Midfielder. A single 30+ game. Not a single Brownlow vote, A grand tally of 19 coaches votes. 13 career goals. Averages 240 metres gained.

I mean, the more obvious question is what do the Clark boosters see?

An extra e apparently

Yeah, but can you get a coffee nearby?

No but heroin and ice are plentiful.

Really thought he was worth another year

 

[Diehard Saint]

Tom stupid Morris on SEN this morning said our "offer" to Merrett was 1.5 million over 6 years?
Surely he's talking complete BS.

 

[gringo2011]

Harmes getting selected ahead of Macrae was an atrocious call by Beveridge.

I’m pretty sure if you go back through the last 10 years of grand final matches there will be a decent spread of 32+ year old A Graders in significant roles.

If Jack can stay healthy, do the work in the off season then he will be well capable of being a part of our next tilt.

On a bog average day I’d say he probably capable of impacting a game in the same way that Zak Jones did towards the end of the season.

On a good day Jack is capable of swinging the game in our favour.

It looked like injecting pace into the side but he ran around doing nothing quickly.

 

[Diehard Saint]

Heard a rumour that we are holding off on the hotton contract because he is managed by the same camp as battle. If we get band one well will extend him. If not we won’t. I can’t find info if this is true by what I heard.

I'm not sure why the correlation between holding off on a contract and the fact that they have the same manager.
Am I missing something? Battle is gone and the manager will have no bearing on the pick.

Waiting to see what the compo pick is, now that I can understand.

 

[Diehard Saint]

I am talking about IF thats the way it's going, I'm slightly confused as to why it would.

In the overall scheme, there arent that many players with children on each list. These players are already higher paid than any of their peers out in then real world. They can afford childcare on their own without each club spending another 300-500k to appease them. Waste of club money and resources. And if that means we lose 1 player here or there that can already afford childcare with the money the club is already paying them, then thats life.

TBH I think it was a BS excuse.

 

[beside the seaside]

So Morris says the Battle contract has an 8 in front of it....

Did someone sneakily show him the first number and then hide it again?

South African, is he?

I'll go over and conduct the negotiations in Afrikaans (the most useless language since it's only spoken in SA) but will sweeten the deal with a braaivleis every weekend (that's a BBQ for you Aussies ) and my home-made biltong and melktert. ( custard tart.)

 

[Joffaboy]

Of course it was. Just talk to soften the image of walking.
Especially after the ' for my family' line that is a bit sketchy after Saints offered more money.
Look Battle has never been quite happy at the Saints. Was unhappy during Ratten, then got pissed when he heard he was talked about as tradeable last year.

He wanted to go, people need to move on.

Lol, I watch this Afrikaans woman on YouTube that runs an Elephant orphanage and have learnt a few Afrikaan phrases.
Between her and the Lion whisperer that Afrikaans saffie accent has grown on me.

Some of the phrases she uses are pretty cool.
