Interested in Stevens, but asking price to high.

 

[lmaohelp]

Thanks Daz

Asking price too high? seriously? I thought our pick 32 would have got the job done. His played 11 games in 3 seasons and was pick 22 over in 09.

It will be a shame tho if we don't nail another mid.

 

[Phone]

maybe we wanna keep pick 32

 

[Dwight Schrute]

We might think that pick 32 is too high.

I think so. I don't know what he's shown at WAFL level, but at AFL level he hasn't done anything spectacular. I would rather we chased Gysberts or Jacobs.

Or just don't want to spend it on Sam Lonergan lite.

 

[VelvetSledge]

There should be some sort of Merrett award for these great puns.

They're starting to go stale.
Definitely need a ZaharaKiss of life.

What about Steven Jacobs?

 

[Ben the Gooner]

The List Manager reckons Ballantyne and Walters will keep Cruize Garlett (inside midfielder) from Fremantle's list.

 

[Zach Package]

In plough we trust

 

[BrunoV]

Except mark the ball for them.

Really? I must have missed the part when Lynch took contested marks. His 2006 aside, his whole career has been based on making a contest (because that is basically what he is limited to).

 

[mayhem20202]

What about Steven Jacobs?

Nowhere near the play that Jacob Stevens is.

 

[kelvin_sheedy]

Dodoro rules out Young. Thank God.

You bloody beauty.

I never said contested Marks?

 

[Fin ice Smuggler]

Dodoro also said Gumby woul sign soon...he hoped.

I'd say we are almost done, he implied there's a couple of smaller things that could happen next week, same old familiar story though, waiting til last minute.

 

[daz17]

More on Stevens.

"They've got an asking price and at the moment we're probably not going to go near him based on what the asking price is."

[ZaharakisFTW]

seems that were interested in a few players or at least "a few little deals here and there"
Koby's Steven's manager said that he would have decided his preffered club for 2012 in the next 24 hours and the manager was confident a deal would be dont quikly, contrary to what Dodoro said

 

[cAsEy_18]

I suspect West Coast want 32, we've offered 48, and we're not that deadset on him that we'll budge from that. I don't think West Coast will care too much either in the end, Koby will choose his club and if it's us, 48 will do.

As far as the "little things/deals" Dodoro referred to, I was initially intrigued, but thinking about it now, it'll be more for trading our guys away, EG - Lonergan, Prismall, Dyson if people want them I'd imagine. Still, pick upgrades never hurt.

 

[daz17]

Look forward to hearing who he nominates.

 

[Dwight Schrute]

Stevens is an interesting case, he has not had many games given to him, but apparently has "dominated" the WAFL, but I'm pretty sure I heard he only averages 21 disposals in the WAFL, which certainly isn't dominating.
