Liz that is a bluff re pick 16.
They knew full well what we wanted and would not have invested this much time and effort to get ROK to lower his salary demands if they are not willing to give us pick 16.
The issue now is whether it is Pick 16 on it's own, Pick 16 plus a player of the calibre of Boyle/Dowler or maybe Mitch Thorp and pick 34.
Not much chance that Thorp will be traded as he is highly regarded.
The Hawks are probably having discussions with the Dogs re Boyle but the Dog's are stuffed re their first pick for Cordy and can't get a trade done with Farren Ray at present to throw that pick at Hawthorn for Boyle.
The deal will be done with Hawthorn just remains to be seen if we can extract a player with pick 16/
