Would we feel more confident if it was anyone else but Sam?
Wait til he is out of contract and having spent 11 games as Sub and 11 games in the VFL to maximise his value...

Little value and most likely had his best year and won’t get anywhere that again.

I'd be happy to steer clear.
Eerily similar to how Stephenson's career has panned out.
Really good first year, but off-field issues make you question his attitude.

Would take in a Schulz deal, shame he won't move west.
Rumours that he wants to get to Hawthorn.
I'm not sure on his character. I don't think he'd fit in with our culture.

List wise he would be a good fit. I think the off-field stuff is overstated, but that is speaking only as a distant observer.

Fake news.
He has no intent on changing clubs. Had a good chat to fly and plans to come back to pre-season in elite condition and fight for his spot in the team.
Was this reported anywhere or just your opinion?

If he agrees to a $1k fine each time he ducks Id be on board.
When he focuses on football he is VERY good.
The off field hopefully is age and he settles down.
What culture would that be , to marginalise and belittle players in front of their teammates.

Last night:
Cant see him then going back on his word to fly and opting out. He worked hard to get into the team the last few months, and so he'll do it again, as he aims to improve his game and fitness.

Not a thread about Melbourne.
Yeah, with Mitchell and his ruthless style, you sure have a great culture, just ask Tommy Mitchell...

Or Adams Grundy Treloar Phillips etc
Unless the pies extend his contract his manager would be negligent if he didn’t tell Ginnivan to move.
Replaced twice, dropped plenty, sub appearances. Writing on the wall he won’t be in the team much next year, the final year of his contract.
Right now his currency is double what it will be in 12 months if he stays at the pies. He could get a 3-4 year deal elsewhere, or stay and get 1-2 year deals on low money.

All under previous leadership, except Adams left for longevity with the Swannies.
Don't get me started on your club, FM....

If where going of Schultz being Gaz Jr type levels of value then 2x first for Ginni as he is contracted.

Yeah but we’re not. Premiership player is an over used value.

Or he can get fit, back himself in, improve areas of his game and fight for a spot in the team. They say its easier to give up then fight, so we'll see which way he goes. He's not yet a finished product, so lots of development to go.
Hopefully backs himself. Like he did in the 2nd half of the year, and how he became a premiership player.

Securing his future isn’t ‘giving up’. Collingwood are not going to give him a 3 year contract on good money, so it’s one major injury away from costing himself $1m+, footy is his job.

Yes, thats true. He'd prob get 2-3 years on modest money. Just whether he'll back himself to have a long term future here. Its the best environment for him to grow as a person and footballer.
