Mrs Eddie Betts - she managed Eddie for 8 years. She's his manager. Cool by me.Apparently the AFL has given permission for his Guardian to negotiate his contract.

Heard his manager wants $800K per season. Yeah, nah from me too.
That’s why he’s in play, blow them out of the water with a deal they can’t or won’t match and let afl compo satisfy north. It’s going to be a hard sell for north, absolutely terrible again and I think he’d be mad not to cash in his chips.I agree and he has pretty much played a lone hand in the midfield for the last 4 years.
I wouldn’t say no to either, we have to spend the money.
would rather frontload the s**t out of someone like LDU.
North would probably accept the bitter pill this year knowing they would get pick 2
Copy and paste Lifestyles rant about LDU for Stengle for me.With the celery cap going up ~25(?)% that isn't a totally unrealistic number for him to be asking to move.
But we'd be nuts to cough up anything near that for a small fwd when we are in desperate need for elite mids.
They are going to get the best deal we’ve ever seen, it will leave jaws on the ground. The AFL have learnt their lesson it’s going to be the best young talent plus expats plus experienced talent. The compensation isn’t going to be tassie’s high draft picks it will be via the AFL and the equivalent of a bag of magic beans.The league has learned its lesson. They'll be made to trade for experienced players to a large degree.
We dont need Ben King , the other Two yesWe need a FB, Mid and Ben King

As long as we don't spend the extra celery on spuds
By that time tassie will come in and we'll be really nowhere probably ......The club would absolutely pull a rabbit out of a hat to get a flag in the next few years , we always seem to be in no mans land , we cant attract top liners that would really make a difference and are finishing mid table and not getting high draft picks .
There are a few holes in our list that need to be fixed before we are going to win a flag
Nutritional tip for the day.........you can't have too much celery.
Celery? Nuts?With the celery cap going up ~25(?)% that isn't a totally unrealistic number for him to be asking to move.

Come on sammm.....chin up !!!!!!!!By that time tassie will come in and we'll be really nowhere probably ......
If he wants out of north at all costs (who wouldn’t) he might be happy to come to the Saints. Wait a year and he has multiple suitors, less likely to choose us.Just wait till next year. No point trading for him
North will probably want two first round picks because he isn't out of contract. Does anyone think he is worth that, especially now that we are drafting pretty well?If he wants out of north at all costs (who wouldn’t) he might be happy to come to the Saints.

Cost too much. Would rather take the chance he doesn’t want to come and take the two first rounders to the draft.If he wants out of north at all costs (who wouldn’t) he might be happy to come to the Saints. Wait a year and he has multiple suitors, less likely to choose us.
It’s tough. If we let him get to FA then he’s likely gonna have other offers and as we know we’re not a desirable destination.North will probably want two first round picks because he isn't out of contract. Does anyone think he is worth that, especially now that we are drafting pretty well?
I'm undecided. If we really think he's putting us in contention at the pointy end, if we think we've got the team to back him up, then just get it done.North will probably want two first round picks because he isn't out of contract.

I think the Membrey situation pre that game has to be considered as well, we looked well down on intensity. I can’t even imagine taking the field after that.I'm undecided. If we really think he's putting us in contention at the pointy end, if we think we've got the team to back him up, then just get it done.
If we'd succeeded getting JDG we would have thought we had the finished article, but would he have made enough difference in our final against GWS last year? We wouldn't have Wilson or Collard, but we MIGHT have had our second premiership cup.
I'm a cautious man, but I think there's a time for bravery and risk. Let the pros decide I suppose
If we had JDG the flow on effect would be huge. Maybe we finish a bit higher on the ladder and avoid GWS, Collingwood probably don’t play as well or even make the grand final which changes the whole finals series, not sure it’s as simple as just add him to our last game of the year.I'm undecided.

Can't see us burning draft picks on him, surely we wait until he's a free agent and then hit him with the godfather offer.
C'mon man... it's only celery. It's outside our actual monetary spending. If we can weigh up his talents against fresh produce we should go for itWith the celery cap going up ~25(?)% that isn't a totally unrealistic number for him to be asking to move.
