Stray thought: I think it is better to pay overs for what you want (e.g. Daniher if we want him) than to sell for unders (e.g. Papley). This might be at odds with the idea that it's a buyer's market.
Incidentally, I think it's particularly hard for us to value Daniher because of his injury history. But hopefully the club is better placed.
Sam Edmunds reports that JD's dad Anthony said Joe isn't going anywhere (at Essendon club function). A shift to Daniher and Papley both staying put. I'm hoping this story is accurate and we do keep Papley and pass on Daniher, at least for this year.
Josh Bruce and Alex Keith both seem headed for the Dogs. They are looking a rising force for next year.
It's hard to see where the Saints are heading. It just seems like they're spinning their wheels without making any progress.
I'm happy with no Daniher and Papley staying. Means we've only got Jones in limbo and maybe we've got a big name in our sights but it hasn't broken?
Just as happy to take picks to the draft and keep adding to what we've got and have a slow build to contention.
It's all happening at the Crows, no coach, Footy Manager in limbo, players queuing up to jump ship. Let's wait and see what the AFL does next week to save their own sinking ship on the Gold Coast, $200 mill down the gurgler so far.
Sam must have been telling the truth as it took place at a public function and can be easily verified. I know the journos stretch the truth a lot, but it would seem pretty silly in this case.
When, of IF, Donald Trump leaves office, he could have a bright future as a footy journo. Maybe he was cozying up to Scott Morrison anticipating that he may have to ask for political asylum.
The wheels are turning. I've got my team working on a new project starring Donald Trump and Eddie McGuire:
Footy Show Apprentice. The contestants will try to get through the entire show only telling lies and racist slurs.
