You’re right, why should one of the greatest players of the modern era and 4 time premiership Coach know anything about assessing talent - LOL.

He does special comments every week and is still considered a very insightful analyst - that’s why he’s still got a job, unlike so many others.
Also doesn't get caught with crushed 'anti-inflammatories'.
 
We want all our players to be loyal, but all the opposition players to be disloyal. It's the stupidity of football fans. Ollie should be loyal because it's the right thing to do, but it's Grundys fault for signing the contract oh and hey let's hope McKay is disloyal and comes to the pies.
It's a bit like the price tag. We want our players to have high value and opposition players to have low values. De Goey is two first rounders but Taranto is only a first rounder.
 
He said Grundy was the most valuable player in the game in 2019.


Ross The Boss once called Mick’s little boy Daisy the best player in the league (2011).

Reckon he was saying that 3 seasons later in 2014 when he was at Carlton?

Bobby Hill is one I'm really looking forward to getting in the squad. I think he adds to our forward line and has genuine pace! Watching his crumb work, he does get in really good positions. If Sidey and Jaicos can help him learn to play some wing, I think we're going to reap a huge reward for little payment.
McStay I'm split with... I think we could do with him, but not at that price!! I get it takes money to attract FAs, but he seriously can't have a huge demand!
I don't want Stocker, just a JAG. List clogger.
I would prefer Grundy to stay, but his actions seem like he doesn't want to stay.
Mitchell would be great to get with Hawks paying some of his wage. We could move Pendlebury out of the midfield which might extend his career.
Henry, if he wants to get a big cheque, he can go.
Frampton, meh. I'm not sold on any of our rucks... is Begg worth persisting with?
I know we were interested in Schache out of Brisbane, could be desisted by dogs... I'd be interested in kicking his tyres. Wouldn't cost much.
And Logue is the last one that I want us to chase... just not sure what it costs us. If Grundy does go, could it be Grundy to Melbourne, Jackson to Freo and Logue? Picks to even it out.
 
He said Grundy was the most valuable player in the game in 2019.

What he said 3 years ago has no relevance to Grundy’s standing in the game in 2022.
 
Had a real good chat with a GWS senior player.
Bobby Hill to Pies is DONE. LOCK IT IN. The only possible change will be to go to Norf to play with his cousin, who is moving from the ‘Aints.
Also Hopper has only been interested in the Tigers. That is, Tigers are gunning for Hopper AND Taranto. Hopper to Cats was news to my GWS mate… it’s been the Tigers from the very start.

So, not really done if he's a chance to go to the Roos?
 
Have you heard something specific?

Asked someone in the afl media, and its what I was told.

I hope he changes his mind. But if not, a real shame. Hopefully we can get compensated.
 
How many of us have actually spoken with the people we claim to have? It normally ramps up about now but at least one poster per page claims they have spoken to their [INSERT NAME AND LINK HERE] friend or their friend of a friend said or their mail is. I doubt anywhere near as many players would be as loose lipped as some claim they are nor would their friends be so forthcoming with information.

There are some on here - Apex and Jen - who have quite legitimate links that are consistently proven correct (and I'm sure there are others). Honestly, take some lessons from the tabloids and get better fictional sources so at least sounds plausible.
