    He's still officially contracted to the Swans until next Thursday so he is at liberty to accept a contract extension until then. After that he will be presumably nominating for the PSD. Can't see him nominating for the ND as I doubt GWS would use picks 1 or 2 on him and after that he's open for everyone.
    Those who have the greatest power to hurt us are those we love.

    Just like they made promises to Paul Bevan.

    good point. i've always been a fan of the players coming through and pushing for selections. i'd love to see him stay... if there is still a faint glimmer of a chance

    Did they actually make any commitments to him?

    giants website

    "We wanted a clever forward and we picked up Jed Lamb from the Swans. - See more at: A GIANTS Leap - GWSGIANTS.com.au

    that more then anything probably answers what Jed wanted and that is wanted to be the small forward still and not the gut running midfielder AND BJ in my opinion has probably level jumped Jed anyway for that spot in 2014 after another pre season

    Whats happened with Biggs ??

    Is he still on the rookie list ??

    Its his second year on the rookie list - my underestanding is that rookies only get max 2 years on the rookie list - is that correct ??

    Yes they did. They said he would be taken in the PSD.

    This, Nahas is McGlynn without the forward pressure and ability to play in the midfield

    Gotcha, I couldn't recall that they actually made a commitment to him and just thought he'd spoken to him and it was generally expected he'd go there.
    I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
    We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time
