Surprised he can even remember it that clearly to be honest.

Zaine doing gods work that day.

Most of our players thoughts in 1997 :-(
We were robbed.

[Sedat]

Lachie Hunter has calf issues apparently. Interesting way to spell cocaine.

[azabob]

What was the context with this? Has he retired?

They went back to the Oliver media strategy.

And if I hear one more person say he left because we low balled him, I'll spew up!

He left because GWS offered him more than anyone else could.

Get the vomit bucket out then because we literally lowballed him.

Ok so this is the scenario you're advocating.

Hi I'm Cal. Western B'Dogs what you got.

350k? Jam that wtf! I'm a future captain. (I've played 60 games so yeah that's probably fair)

Dogs management thinking : if he negotiates well we will give him 400-450.

GWS : Hi Cal do you want 4 mill?

Duh.

No I agreed that their offer was beyond what he was worth/what we were willing to pay, the issue is as I understand it Ward's management were prepared to accept less money to stay at the Dogs than GWS were offering but we didn't budge.

That's my understanding anyway.

Well it sounds like complete horse shit.

Even if we offered a 60 game player 600k a year for 4 years (2.4) it's about half what GWS offered
I've got nfi who is perpetuating this myth of being low balled, but it feels like something a guy with a guilt complex might say.

Just admit it. You left for the cash. That's OK.

You're not getting any love from Dogs fans though.

Yeah well that's like your opinion man.

I love him.

Besides, ultimately if he left because the dollars are massive I can't hate on that. I'd cut all of you out of my life with zero regrets for massive dollars.

That's not true, is take Happy Days with me. I need a Court jester.

Hey what...? I feel like I've been there through our highs and lows (all mine mind you so....) surely I'm more than an avatar to you?

Ok you can come too.

But not azabob. I'm over that guy and his always questioning shit.

[Twodogs]

You left out the fact that the player we took with the draft pick we got for you kicked the goal that put us in front.

[ledge]

My belief is the bulldogs wanted to wait until later in the year to sign him and he was willing to sign earlier . GWS went whack with a bag full in that time , if we didn’t hang out we would have kept him.
We stuffed up.
