I would doubt that unless you see GWS as not improving at allWe’ll most likely get a top 5 pick for him next year if he stays.
GWS have bought in a new coach and he will have an immediate impact with a new game plan , There is so much talent on the GWS list that its crazy to think you wont be competing for the 8. The GWS game plan was shocking and cameron was the cause along with the assistants and team makeup in trying to play slowish inside mids in foreign positions just because they are high end talent and injuries didnt help.
But if you guys finish 7-10 there is no guarantee Hopper gets the same deal and what season he has in 2023 , in the mean time where do you play him ? Who misses out ?Another 600k out of the cap that may cost a young player ?
Richmond needed 5 A grade players in 2017 to win flag Dusty , Rance , Martin , Cotchin & Jack with the rest being team players
GWS have too many stars and not enough team players and all want to be the 'MAN'
Team of Champions v Champion team - That is the difference along with a good coach with a game plan that players have Buy in
more top end fraft picks mean more money which means more players leave. its a vicious cycle
