I feel like this is a bad take.
Admittedly media often get stuff wrong, but people like Sam Edmund and Cal Twomey have contacts throughout the footy landscape and I think its ignorant to assume otherwise.
Yes they may be off the mark every now and then, but to go with something along the lines of Jack Graham is open to be traded, you'd have to be relatively confident.
He also did say that Graham is most likely to stay. Which will likely be the case.
So he can't be wrong.
I do know what you're saying though.
