I’d be surprised if we don’t match and I don’t expect he will be in that range. Rightly so the club are distancing themselves because the last thing they want is a club ahead of them to know they will match so there’s no risk of putting a bid on. Clubs will usually bid in the range they see that player, but in the chance they have even one player they rate higher ahead of McInnes, even it will make them think twice which is the only card to play.If our first pick looks like going out from 14 to 17, surely we match any bid from 5 to 16?
Just because we don't necessarily have him as 6th, 7th, 8th or whatever... even if we have him as 15th we'll be getting a better player than the one we'd select at 17ish.
