Loaded and a premiership player

I think Bucks would be haunted by the poor decision he made as a kid.North supporters to players who don’t come to North “We’ll show you! You’ll regret this!”
We’re negotiating.I am surprised North have not offered more!!
Thats a cool story palYou mean a less wealthier guy who looks a shadow of the player he was last year. All the best to him but if Richmond had even a modestly challenging draw it wouldn't be looking too good, there is so much pressure on him to perform to beat decent teams. No wonder he fled to NZ as soon as he could for a break.
Well they are Offering that Kind of Money that tells me they are that Desperate for him
I just can’t see them getting Kelly next year if they get De Goey this year. If you are offering a player 1 mil a year your giving up 2 first round picks. I can’t see GWS accepting a future first from North next year for Josh Kelly.The other thing to note is that North are pretty confident that Kelly will end up with them sooner rather than later anyway. If they miss out on DeGoey it won't be the end of the world. BUT, if they land DeGoey and then land Josh Kelly the following season, just how good could they potentially be? If this is the beginning of a rebuild right now then it is already ahead of schedule. Add those two boys and it just lands them right in the middle of a premiership window in 2-3 years time.
Goldstein, Kelly, Higgins, Cunnington starting midfield.
Brown, DeGoey, Ziebell starting forward with the latter 2 rotating through the guts. It's pretty exciting on paper.

How many Vic clubs made big offers to Dusty and Kelly last year? It might be quicker to list the clubs that didn’t.Not for him exactly, but after failing in two massive and very public offers last year, their credibility as a destination will be pretty fragile and they will NEED to land a big fish this year (or make it very clear they're not fishing at all....which seemingly isn't the case)
Big money is nice, but star players also want success, and when too many of their peers have rejected a potential destination (especially when they took significantly less money to do so), it can easily become a cycle of rejection.
For North's sake, you'd hope they've done their homework and ensured that the fish is hooked and almost on board before letting this get public.

Do you think 1.1 million is significantly less than 1.2 million?
I would be amazed if we gave up 2 1st rounders for him. We don’t need our 1st this year with a top 5 pick coming in cheap. We will hold onto next years.I just can’t see them getting Kelly next year if they get De Goey this year. If you are offering a player 1 mil a year your giving up 2 first round picks.

Pretty sure even if wells retires it still has to count in the salary cap.
If you're offering that amount of money and think that two first rounders won't be used.. you're very wrong, He won't be leaving but North would have to pay up two firsts or First and a genuine player like a Mason Wood.I would be amazed if we gave up 2 1st rounders for him. We don’t need our 1st this year with a top 5 pick coming in cheap. We will hold onto next years.
Lol what? We offered 1.2 you paid him 1.1. You can’t add the extra years in a contract and say he is missing out!!Other clubs kicked the tyres....
Dusty took "over $2Million" less....I'd call that significant.
Yes, you’re going to offer a player a million bucks a year, but only part with one first round pick. Good one.I would be amazed if we gave up 2 1st rounders for him. We don’t need our 1st this year with a top 5 pick coming in cheap. We will hold onto next years.
Care to comment on the Pies recruiting strategy? References to Mayne, Wells and Greenwood will be very interesting to read about. Some pretty wild darts being thrown by the Pies.Yeah I guess if you throw enough darts you bound to hit something
That’s Norfs recruiting strategy - pretty pathetic club TBH

I imagine any deal would be this year's first and next year's first. Though they be interested in some of our players.

We kind of do - without them offering Greenwood a longer contract on much more money we wouldn’t have landed Higgins. They took a bullet by taking our deadwood so we could bring in a jet.Huh?
They can take the first round pick or he can walk to the draft with a price on his head.
We don't owe them any favors.
