We all say how shit T. Wallet and the likes are and that they know nothing and then listen to them and complain about what they say

Seems like we have no choice. I wonder if there is any chance at all of Jack staying?

Yup I’m not a fan of Jones but I think he takes Newnes’ spot in the 22 so at least he’s an upgrade.
Hill for Acres is also an upgrade.
Ryder for Bruce we downgrade our forward line however it’s an upgrade in our ruck department. Not to get into a debate regarding Marshall playing more minutes forward but it could be a master stroke. If Marshall adds forward craft to his rucking ability he is a genuine star of the competition.
Gray for Parker or Long is an upgrade.
With the suggested trades we are making incremental improvement.
Add 20 games out of Hanneberry & the potential of Max King & we are seeing more significant improvement.
At least we are doing something & trying to improve. That’s better than standing still after 8 shizen years.

not that simple due to the circumstances and you know that.
But suggestions today that we will only get around pick 60 AND pay a large part of his salary are absolutely ridiculous.
We should either get him completely off the books for a lousy pick or get a decentish pick and pay part of his salary.
Madness
You know what I love. People on here underselling our players.
There are calls that suggest J Daniher will command 2 first round draft picks. 2 first round draft picks for a bloke that has barely played in 2 years.
And yet the same pundits suggest that Bruce is only worth a 2nd or 3rd rounder.
Why would the Dogs put a lucrative 4 year deal in front of him if he was shit?
Let's put it like this if Keath is worth Pick 13 then Bruce is the same if not more.
Bruce is contracted and as such if the Dogs want him then they need to pay for him.

I always get a good laugh about how these paid experts still don't understand how the Carlisle trade worked four years later.
It's great entertainment value.

he was poor up until when we sacked Richo but had a really positive last 6 rounds imo, started to use the ball better and kicked a few goals
For one we has so much money we could probably buy all the Hills in the league and still have enough for a big fish next year, and with Bruce it doesn't matter how the supporters rate him when a club approaches us about a contracted player we could start the negotiations at 3 first rounders if we feel like it. You never start with what they are actually worth.

he picked up most of his brownlow votes in the final 6 rounds
I don't see the rush to move Bruce on for a pick in the 30s or 40s this year. He'll most likely command that next year anyway. If the dogs want him they can pay a little bit more. There's nothing wrong with having depth in the team, especially if we end up with injuries. Look at Richmond, enough talent to win both VFL and AFL grand finals as they've got enough depth in every position. We have an abundance of average midfielders and half back flankers but move on types like Steven and Bruce that we don't have a lot of cover for basically insignificant draft picks.

Daniher has played 104 games for 188 goals & his best year he kicked 65. He’s also 2 years younger than Bruce & has shown far more potential.
Bruce has played 91 games for 135 goals & his best year he kicked 50.
Considering Daniher’s last two years he’s definitely being overrated in the media. Given output, age & potential he’s a pick 10-15. Bruce closer to 25. I think both clubs get better compensation due to being contracted. If we get around pick 15 & the Bombers get around pick 5 in a poor draft we are both big winners.
And neither do you. So you're even.
If the Doggies are happy to pay 700k a year for 4 years for Bruce they need to be happy to pay up pick wise.
Pick 13 is the starting point.

I’m no good at this valuation caper. Few weeks ago I thought Jack was worth a late first round pick. Hill a bit more but never pick 6. I also had Jones around 30-35 and it looks like he’s going for a bit more than that. Bruce I thought pick 19, but it seems it’ll be for a bit less.
Worst part is I still believe in those valuations despite getting them all wrong.
