Where’s Stratton24
Hard to see Callow surviving after his performance for BH today. He just isn't imposing himself on the game - 6 possessions and 0 goals. We are not well stocked with KPFs but I think we will need to look elsewhere.
Gunston $600 000
Big Boy $500 000
Not sure if Gunston was back ended or front ended at some stage so that might not be his average.
I haven’t seen much of cavarra but he is deadly once the ball hits the ground. Not sure how good his skills are but can win it and get a shot off. Very lively. Would his game translate to afl level?
What would we pay Gunner on his final contract? I'm assuming it drops a bit.
Mcstay is being offered 600k. Surely can’t go lower than that and keep him.
But they say he is an unrestricted FA?

I heard Lions offering Mcstay 450k with extra year to match Pies. If Lions our competition for Gunner then it won’t be about money I would have thought

Would he give us a discount though? He should easily get 3x500k as an UFA

You think clubs would offer 3 years? I imagine there will be a few 2 year contracts offered.

We’ve gotta reach our minimum somehow.

I think we would offer two with a competitive salary so to get a free agent out you need to offer more years or better terms.
Heppell was offered a 4 year deal by GCS and he isn't kicking bags of five

3 weeka ago McStay was an avg plodder. He is peaking at perfect contract time.
Mcstay is a far inferior player who has played 20 or more games in a season twice. Has played 17 games v 14 games for Gunston this year, and mcstay didn’t miss games due to a death in the family. You don’t know mcstay if you think his body is more dependable.

Ask the Western Bulldogs coaching staff. After all he did play 3 seasons there as an AFL lister for 4 AFL games between the age of 23 and 25.
He was an elite junior who won the Morrish Medal but frankly, unlike Caleb Daniel who is even shorter, his height and lack of leg speed meant he struggled to transition from gun VFL player to the next level.
Gunston has been remarkably solid. Especially this year, after his back issues. Happy to keep. If he wants to leave I don't begrudge. Saying that, i wish Isaac never left... lol
My God imagine he ended up at Geelong!
I don't need to know McStay - I can do the numbers. He has averaged (marginally) more games per season over his playing career than has Gunston, despite Gunston playing in more finals series. McStay has a dependable body and more tread on the tyres. We love Gunston and know he can still turn it on but it is no secret that he has a history of major pack problems and they tend to be recurrent. That risk has to be factored into his contract.

Swap him out for Callow?
I don't know if Greene can make it at the next level. Is he quick enough for a medium forward?
Had his cracked at AFL level and not quite good enough. I think he'll be one of those players that are great at the second level, but not quite good enough at the top level. Couldn't see him fitting into our forward line.
