North haven't TOLD me to leave, but they were open to me exploring my options.

There are posters on the eagles board threatening to cancel their Bigfooty accounts if they don't land you.

Even though some of them had never heard of you 2 weeks ago.
 
He's on $500-$600k.

That's a significant contract for a club to take on for even a single season for a guy who has only played 62% of the games over the last 3 years and is going at around 12 possessions and 1.4 goals a game.

We aren't taking about a kid with a heap of development in him either. He turns 27 next year and should be in his prime. His contract doesn't match anywhere near his output.
500-600k mason wood?

No way $350-$450

If we're trading posters to other boards, I'd have you on my "untouchable" list.

I have a list of very tradeable types though.

GWS Giants’ midfielder Aiden Bonar weighs up a return home to a Melbourne club
Aiden Bonar faces a challenge breaking into the Giants’ stacked midfield next season. And rival clubs might make their move if the talented GWS ballwinner decides to make a move.

Powerful Greater Western Sydney midfielder Aiden Bonar could explore a move to a Melbourne club in search of greater senior opportunity next season.
Multiple clubs have expressed interest in the Dandenong product but will wait until the final days of the trade period next week to pursue the matter.
Bonar, who was rated as one of the most talented players of the 2017 national draft, is a big-bodied midfielder with exciting athletic traits.

But after playing only six games in his first two years at GWS, the No. 11 draft pick could again be stuck on the fringes of the talent-laden GWS midfield.

The exciting utility is aware he will face stiff competition from the returning Callan Ward, re-signed onballer Stephen Coniglio, Jacob Hopper, Matt de Boer and Josh Kelly in the Giants’ engine room in 2020.

It means the 20-year-old could appeal to Essendon as an inside contested ball-winner or Hawthorn to add some x-factor to its rebuild on the run.

His versatility is also appealing as Bonar is strong overhead, a busy pressure-player and can impact the contest around goal.


But the 188cm ballwinner is not a priority for either the Hawks or Bombers yet and will likely be considered as a secondary option on Tuesday or Wednesday next week.

Sources said the Giants could possibly entertain a move for a top-30 pick but there remains a strong chance he will stay at the club again next season.

Essendon has prioritised the situation with spearhead Joe Daniher and wants to block his trade request to Sydney Swans, unless they fork over two high-end picks.

Hawthorn has a trade philosophy to bring in talented players who may be facing some adversity at their original club.

Bonar has suffered two knee reconstructions but like Jon Patton, who has sustained three ACL tears, has since made a full recovery.

The Hawks could add Bonar into the Patton trade but in any case the Giants would want something in the vicinity of a second-round pick for Bonar, at least.

While the Giants rate Bonar highly and want to keep him, the second-year midfielder is again going to find it tough to break into the senior team next season.

The right-footer is contracted for two more years at GWS and has said multiple times he’s happily settled off the field up north.

Even young midfielders Jackson Hately and Jye Caldwell could push for senior games next year.
Not a priority for Hawthorn or Essendon but I'll still spend most of the article talking about them anyway....
 
How would people feel about our 1st and 2nd for Howard and Powell-Pepper. I'd expect some late swaps also in our favour.
Howard fills a gap created with Turbo finishing up and Powell-Pepper compliments our tougher game style.
 
Woods manager on sen stated that he will be staying and is taking it as a fresh start, spoke to some current north players realises it’s now or never. Hopefully he proves a lot of people wrong next year. Could be massive for us
It would have been a disaster if he left IMO.

I would spew blood.
 
Agree with the first part but not the last. The club has identified a need - KPD, presumably having been caught short by Scooter's retirement earlier than expected - and are chasing someone who might fill that hole. And given our options seem to be either a 50-game, 23 year old or drafting an 18 year old who may not be ready for three to four years, it's not hard to work out why we're asking the question.

Have they? I believe that this is your assumption based upon media speculation.

Logically, it's also bizarre considering with have 4 contracted KPD's (Tarrant, Durdin, McKay, Daw) on the list, 2 of which have been contracted in the latter half of the season (Durdin, Daw).

We also have Vickers-Willis who can play roles which Thompson undertook.
