Where has all this talk of Hopper come from? I would imagine there is no way GWS would allow themselves to lose a top related academy player. If they allow an academy player to walk after two years they may as well give up on the future of the club. They would not let that happen without an almighty fight and I imagine would not do a trade under any circumstances.
There seems to be the same talk surrounding him as there was with Marchbank this time last year, multiple sources saying he would like to go to Melbourne. No way they want him to leave but they didn't want Marchbank to go either. He would be more expensive in a trade than Marchbank.

Can someone please answer thy's question. Because I'd like to know too...

Does "Parrot" refer to a previous poster or the brilliantly coloured, hook-billed Psittaciformes ????
I don't know who parrot is but I think you are definitely the man for the job when it comes to pre-Richmond game banter. I look forward to it.
 
Raaaaaarggh....a former poster.......Raaaaarrrgh

His/Her banter pre-round 1 Richmond matches was legendary.
Basically the Germaine Greer of BF. Had it in for Richroy and his/hers antagonism and ability to incite the human/peanut hybrids was something beyond legendary. My 2nd favourite poster of all time.

Parrot owned Feb/March and completely mindf**ked our beloved Tiger brethren.
 
Going to be a long season waiting for info about getting Shiel, and an even longer trade period waiting to see if it happens lol

Sounds like massive shoes to fill. Not sure I'm quite up to that standard, but it will be a lot of fun trying....

Edit: never seen any of Parrot's work, but going by the descriptions provided, I love him/her...
 
Barass70 mentioned Hopper so it's worthy of discussion .
Like Marchbank this year and Treloar the year before , if the out of contract Hopper wants out of GWS the Giants have little option other than to make a deal .
The key is to persuade him to nominate Carlton , thus giving us a very strong hand in the negotiations .
I am not saying it isn't worthy of discussion just that if I was GWS I would not trade a key player that I got via the academy. If you agree to that you are just admitting it is an ongoing open slather on your whole list. The point of the academy is player retention. If I was them I would try to get him to sign and if he refuses make it clear can head to Brisbane(likely bottom) via preseason draft. They have to make a stand on academy players and it is not like they really need draft picks they would get in a trade.
 
I'm not as enamoured with Fyfe as most of the AFL community is so I'm fine with not chasing him.
 
We are no longer interested in Fyfe.
I gave that post a like, only because, like everyone else here, I appreciate the genuine and legitimate insights barrass provides...

But not happy about the news. Fyfe would've been a very nice addition to our midfield. Never mind, onward and upward...
