Nah. Jaxons has too moderate a temperament to be a man.
She is probably the wife of someone in the inner circle.
Husband feeds her information that they are happy to have broadcast.

What's the point of finishing a question with the line "just saying"

Of course that's what you're saying. We read it.

Wrong temperament and no woman in the inner circle at present.

It's all starting to make sense

A different thought. Who could we trade to either the GWS or GCS for a couple of their picks? I think they have about eleven picks between them under about 28.

No, you misheard. James Hird is VAIN, not Bane.

Jack Steele seems to be having a hard time deciding if he is staying or coming to us.

Another Giant similar to him might be equally an impressive prospect.

A midfielder called Jake Barrett. Has not played as many games as Steele but has been literally tearing it up in the NEAFL. I know not a world beating competition but Barrett has averaged more than 25 possessions per game. He was BOG in the Grand Final. Just can't push his way into the senior team.

I guess our club would be looking at him if he is any good. Not rumoured anywhere that I have seen if they are. Just like the sound of this kid.

Myron could you indicate at what cost Steele's addition will cost us?

No Idea mate, I'm not an ITK nor do I claim to be one.

My guess is he's an early 2nd round pick.

Heeney could we do it? Get our foot in the door? Make an offer?

Heeney contract talks still to kick off

Would have to a ridiculously big and budget breaking offer to lure him from his home state. he's good but not worth it atm.
would be nice to have one of our boys to get to his level at 20.

I dont imagine he'd be over paid at the swans. It may depend if he's willing to move

If that's the case then try for Tippett.

Tip for Tippett. Tippett may be Tipped out. In house club fighting and doesn't get along with his teammates. Will they need to make cap space?

Heeney 20 years old and showing a lot, I'd rather we chased Heeney

Got something on Steele.

He's told us & GWS he wants to be a Saint. GWS have requested a 2nd round pick (next years will work) however thus far we haven't committed to that deal which is pissing the Giants off. We don't need to commit until trade period starts next week so I don't understand the big deal. Anyway, that's what I've been told. Looks like Steele will definitely be a Saint.

2nd round pick,

is that a Steele for us or are GWS being advised by Dodoro :shock:


The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

Will be this years pick 46 or next years second rounder, probably the latter.
We are also looking at other GWS players so that could change the deal and dynamics.
Steele looks likely but is not 100% just yet, and after Laverde nothing is done until it is done.
Early next week you will know about him.
We are very busy and looking at lots and lots, no different to other clubs however.
Am confident we will not pursue Hartlett further, asking price is too high on money and trade.
May reconsider if Port pay half his salary etc.
We want to get back into this years draft which is the right strategy.
And still pursuing a key tall.
If we get Steele and a tall back who is good and have 3 top 30 draft picks I will call that a very successful trade period.
We are still flirting with the idea of bringing in a big name without breaking our trade currency too much.
All can be done!
Also to clarify, I am definitely not a woman!
