Going to side with Swans here, no way Eagles 1st isn't involved (possible swap with Swans, plus more, is likely Swans worst case scenario depending where they finish up). I don't see Warner nominating, he has strong reasons to go to both clubs:
Freo: Ties to former East Freo Boys, strong team who will be competing, won't get as much money.
West Coast: More money than anywhere (plus post career bonuses), gets to play with Harley (maybe), but won't be competitive.
Either team are going to be paying out of the arse unless he nominates. His value will be dictated by what teams have. Freo likely have 2 or 3 low first rounders (inc futures), West Coast at least 2 high first rounders, one of which will be next year's. Tassie coming in massively devalues the future firsts and I've no doubt the Swans would prefer a deal with WCE.
Gun player, gonna cost a fortune, contract or not, slightly less with a nomination that I don't see coming.
