List Mgmt. 2016 re-signing mission accomplished!

[carnthemlions]

yep it was a lighthearted ribbing, I didn't think it was malicious or inappropriate and I think anyone who tries to make it into such is perhaps letting their confirmation bias run a little rampant...

Edit-
Without in any way casting aspersions on Rhy's loyalty, I have no reason to doubt hs loyalty, but we may do well to remember that other players we assumed were 'loyal lions to the core were

Tom Rockliff
Lewy Taylor

But we, as fans turned on them pretty quickly when it turned out they were looking after their own interests too. The fact is, most players will express pride and loyalty to the club, and even if they mean it at the time, they (and us) may move on over time.

Taylor looks like just the latest victim of the 'future captain' tag.

I told u guys he was Geelong bound......a little while ago. Money is less though. Whether that makes a difference we'll soon discover.

Any update?

 

[Eons]

Seems to be some confusion with Geelong, it appears they were after a Gardener, not Gardiner.

Yes he was a package deal with Bill Oddie and Tim Brooke Taylor

 

[Big Lion]

Any update?

Geelong have Lids to worry about, Gardiner from what i hear is staying put, though i did hear the Saints were having a sniff, too little too late though. Thought the pies would have a late look too.

Still a non believer i see. Don't buy the bs mate he was looking around.

I wasn't arguing that he wasn't looking around I said it didn't seem likely at all that he could get to Geelong

Geelong are struggling to get the Lids deal done. Surprised Pies didn't have a look at him to be honest. Good for us if he stays.

"McDonald on Josh Green: He's got a lot to offer clubs, he's got a lot of footy ahead of him, but will be addressed after the trade period"

 

[Hollow Knight]

Will go free to someone as a delisted FA then.

 

[Lace Out]

Got me stumped he's not worth anything.

Agree with this. Seems like clubs pay so much these days to their top players they just don't have anything left to pay 300/400 for a player like Green who has clearly put to a high price on his head. Every year clubs get smarter and they now know players like Green can be picked up for nothing as a free delisted player.. Look at Ben Lennon top 15 pick a a couple years back and can't gain any interest. Seems like we are happy to move on from Green - if no one wants him wouldn't we just go back to him and say you can sign a one year deal with incentives and offer him 150k?

 

[SizeMatters]

whats the chances we still keep Green? maybe this is the wakeup call he has needed.

Rookie list maybe

 

[notting18]

Lions twitter account touting "more big news" coming with an image of letters that clearly includes "Diz". Gardiner about to be announced?

 

[dlanod]

That was my first thought too.

 

[jjami15]

As soon as Hanley has been traded Diz signs on the dotted line, co-incidence? I think not

 

[BL_dobsmob]

Yeah, just got the email.

Dizzy for 3 years!

 

[WA Lion]

Surprised by the 3 years not 2 but very happy nonetheless

 

[dlanod]

So uhhh...

Guess this thread is done.

 

[dlanod]

 

[lionshine]

Great news

 

[Hollow Knight]

Yeah, must have been the sticking point. Once he decided to stay he must have wanted to do it properly.

 

[Biggies]

Good thread title! Poor Josh though.

 

[royboys4eva]

Tears for the Geelong supporters who figured Darcy was heading home.

 

[John_Proctor]

Think we need to start offering shorter contracts.
