Lynch is leaving a basket case, Dangerfield was always going to go back to Geelong, Ablett and Buddy got godfather offers before godfather offers were even a thing.

I know you dislike Joyce, but the fact remains we're not a big club and we'll never be a big club. Either we genuinely have a crack at big names and likely fail, or we "know our place" and just target mid tier guys. Which would you prefer?

Joyce made the final call on Higgins btw. Probably Waite too.
Are we targeting the right players?

Maybe we should be targeting the basket cases. WC and Richmond have got resources to throw at the last minute. Gaff's missus probably start starts work Monday as the highest paid school teacher in Australia.

We targeted a Port player and got him....well I think we did. They probably don't have the back ground resources to do anything about.

Major brand damage for us. Martin, Kelly, now Gaff say GAGF. Something is wrong with the way we negotiate so publicly. I hope Brad's promise of a surprise this week is worth waiting for.

We didn't negotiate publicly this time. We offered no comment.

The reality is we're not a big club. It matters. We're punching above our weight even getting Dusty and Gaff to seriously consider us.
Nah Mate. Look at the History of our club. We have landed big name players in the past. You could argue it got us our first Flag in 75. Previous administrations didn't seem to have that problem of selling our small club to players at other clubs. The pattern is there in us missing high profile recruits in recent times. We need to be better. No excuses. :stern look
