Player Watch #34: Jack Graham - MOVED TO WCE - PICK 42 Received

[Forensi Tiger]

We got reamed, as per usual. Time to move on. Pick 42 is unders but still a very handy pick for us to use as trade bait. The list spot opening up is probably worth more than an any pick we would have received anyway.

Part of the problem with the compo picks is Hawks stupid enough to offer Battle 6 years at the reported $900K. Maybe compo should be based on the contract offer made by the club the UFA is playing for. Why should Saints benefit from Hawks stupidity- should be based on value placed on club he plays for -did Saints offer a huge contract?

I agree mate, the way that it is set up is incredibly flawed.

Nothing is going to happen this week, so there's nothing to move on to.

A 24 hour grace period to mourn the 17 pick downgrade from Band 3 is all I ask.

Its well south of $900k. Reason stkilda got so salty is they upped their offer to around $900k to trigger band 1, battle said nah, not going back on my word with the hawks, original contract stands, so Saints were shitting bricks they'd get band 2 which is what they shouldve got!

I just did. 'the Bolton deal is 18 +30 for Bolton + 45'. Richmond are bad, he only finished 5th in your B and F and he doesn't want to be there. It's the strongest draft in years, if 18 and change doesn't get it done, go to the draft, the strongest one in years.
