So, what is that meant to mean Barry?
It's what you do on the Grinr app if you don't like someone, you swipe right if you do like them.
Says more about Barry's footy nous than it does about Coniglio. Hope we get him, he is an outstanding player in the league's most talented team.

Before throwing the farm at him, have we confirmed that he has a pre-existing medical and/or mental condition?

While I do understand that the Saints do seem to have a penchant for players who do have a pre-existing medical condition I would prefer that they confirm that he does not have one ;)

This is the play: $1.4 mill a year for several years (apparently a lot of money). Live in Melb and wear Red White and Black - be the man. GWS will have to match that cornucopia to keep him - neither he nor his manager can ignore such an offer; almost too good to refuse. If he says no I will stay with the matched offer, GWS immediately have SC probs and we get their next best available player and pocket some change. What could go wrong. (Assumption: by then we are showing a good chance of playing finals)

He will not pick St.Kilda if he decides to leave GWS.
We also threw everything at Dylan Shiel and he picked the Bombers.
1.5 million no thanks.

Clever play st Kilda. No deal will be made but now gws will have to pay overs too keep him which will free up other targets. Bravo especially if it's just. False rumour we leaked

I have no doubt that a new coach for the 2020 season might sway some guys to come our way.

AFL Insider says he’s rejected our offer but is still considering offers from other clubs

Finds Carlton more appealing

Geelong's Tim Kelly would fit in nicely with our indiginous boys

Offer Tim Kelly $1.25 million over 4 years. That'll help pay for his parents or in laws to come across

We either get him or we pump up his price and prize out a few others

Ben Long is good mates with Brandon Parfitt :wink:

He just does not want to play as a hb with us. Too much competition for spots.

Well if Cogs has done his ACL today then it throws things up into the air.

GWS may choose to no longer match a UFA offer - Hawthorn will be happy

Cogs may however now look more favoyarably on a guranteed long-term offer on huge money - it might give the Saints a sniff. But also means effectively no Cogs for us for 2020 if it happened.
