Lol I heard this about a Hawthorn player at the end of 2013 and he went on to play for another 10 years.Grundy is so done and would stuff our cap
Yep, I'd be on board with Grundy coming.The salary dump certainly adds an element of intrigue to future trading, although I would prefer to take on expensive discards at a discounted rate rather than take on the full salary for an attractive pick or two. Treloar is the perfect example, why pay $900K for five years when I can get Collingwood to foot $300k per annum for the life of his contract?
Not against signing Bowes under these circumstances, but I do not want him if he is supposedly on $800K and we're paying the full amount. It would upset the apple cart quite a bit and a few of our players would inevitably leave because of it. Also, if Bowes worked out for us, how would we negotiate a contract extension if his salary is already overinflated?
Brodie Grundy is probably going to Melbourne, but hypothetically speaking, I'd be happy for the Swans to take on a contract like his if Collingwood were paying 15-25% of his remaining 5 years.

People were saying that about Cripps last year. Grundy would instantly be our best ruckLol I heard this about a Hawthorn player at the end of 2013 and he went on to play for another 10 years.
I mean, our swifties are pretty damn good. I'm happy to wait for the right kind of player to make that kind of move again but Grundy's probably only a signature away from being a Demon anyway.Yep, I'd be on board with Grundy coming.
Him going to the Dees should be announced this week as they're both out now...unless we've done another swifty
Hasn't Grundy come out and said he wants to stay in Melbourne?

Lloyd is 29 yo. Not worth pick 6.Suns supposedly happy to offer pick 6 as part of Bowes. If Lloyd wants out Bowes and pick 6 does sound attractive. Would put us in prime position for Jed Busslinger and we'd have good depth for the rebounding role Lloyd fills
Bowes was who we originally bid on before picking up Florent. Description matches how we play
Who is Bowes? Who wants $800,000 hit to their cap? Pick 6 and the previous baggage is a clean offload.Lloyd is 29 yo. Not worth pick 6.
Suns would be asking for Warner or T McCartin in exchange for Bowes and pick 6
Fair enough but Suns need to get pick 6 right.Who is Bowes? Who wants $800,000 hit to their cap? Pick 6 and the previous baggage is a clean offload.
Bowes is $1.6mil($800,000x2). Who would pay that for an average player. Pick 6 would need to be in the equation.Fair enough but Suns need to get pick 6 right.
Can't see them using it on Lllooyyyddd.
And I actually rate Lloyd pretty highly.

We bid on him in his draft year.Isn't Bowes who we were keen on in 2016?
I wonder if it'll be Ryan Clarke 2.0 or if our interest will have waned...We bid on him in his draft year.
Hasn't nominated a team actually, and in truth, hasn't even come out and asked to be traded. Everyone's just assumed its the Dees because they've made it clear hes in their sights and he had lunch with Gawn.Hasn't Grundy come out and said he wants to stay in Melbourne?
I'm keen on Hustwaite from reports.After the U18GF today Herald Sun has called out some players that might be good for respective teams. Those named for Swans in our bracket are as follows:
- Oliver Hollands: Midfielder The smooth-mover, who has been thrown all over the ground this year, was stationed in a full-time midfield role and led the way in the engine-room for Country, finishing with 23 disposals, seven marks, six inside 50s and six tackles. Was quiet in the final term but was everywhere early, racking up 11 first-quarter disposals and using the ball well on both sides of his body.
- Henry Hustwaite: Midfield/Defender: Worked his way into the contest with a high quality second term after a slow start. Always seems to have time when he has the ball in traffic and regularly found an option by hand, but his kicking was off at times. But we can cut him some slack, given the tall midfielder returned from an ankle injury for the NAB League grand final last week and had just a six-day break for this clash
No current season stats available
Computer says noJake Stein anyone? Just de-listed by GWS. 195cm key defender. Has had a few good games, ex decathlete. Would come cheap I'd imagine.
