HEY MAGPIE ARMY!
He did say "mature ruckman" but yeah, if they need back up for Mummy then Witts makes more sense than Minson. Will be sad to see him go but overall absolutely a fair price and someone we can afford to lose with the sub rule out and Cox emerging
Well next year, Witts will be turning 24 no? So he's basically 1 season (2 at most) from entering his "peak". I'd say he's a perfect fit for GWS and they know it. He's from Sydney so there's no risk of home sickness. They'll have Mummy for one more season which means Witts establishes himself as the number 1 right as he's entering his peak period.
Seems like Pick 7(8) plus Witts should get it done. maybe another lower pick (to satisfy their points requirement) at most. I'm ok with that.
edit. Yep just checked. Witts turns 23 on Sunday. So he'll be 24 when Mummy is finishing up. Timing is perfect for all this imo.
