    Re: Stringer needs to “really commit” to dogs, says teammate

    Reports that if Stringer goes we'll re-sign Crammers and if he stays Crammers is gone. It appears one will be used as trade bait and it is unlikely we'll keep them both.
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

    Ones under contract the other isn't so we would get SFA for Crameri.
    I think Crameri was told to look around at his exit meeting going by his comments about his manager looking at options.

    Re: Stringer needs to “really commit” to dogs, says teammate

    If Jake comes back playing at 70 per cent of his all Australian season, i would be more than happy. A dozen touches including some 'Stringer magic' moments a week is what drags people off their couch to the footy. He's one of the few players who can do something so outrageous that it makes me laugh out loud in wonderment.

    I find it hard to believe you have a talking Labrador.

    Crameri has already been told they are happy for him to look elsewhere. He wont change his mind if Jake goes.

    Prudden has just been given the chop so it might have moved to two against one.

    If Jake thinks a de-brief with Bevo is hard work, someone should remind him that going to Geelong also means having to mix with Harry Taylor. Now that would take real commitment.

    . Taylor planning and preparations have been known to be meticulous. He keeps a diary of every single player he has played against. His work rate would be collosal compared to stringer. And expect some tough conversations with the coach.

    Maybe but he's an arrogant SOB who found some sick pleasure in sledging Jake on the final siren after our last loss to them down there. Jake didn't take it well.

    Maybe he told him some home truths as well.
    Seems Jake doesn't take any criticism well.

    If memory serves me correctly wasn't it alleged that Jake Stringer who was one of those most vocal against Brendan McCartney's approach with the players? Is this a bit of history repeating?

    Apparently walked into Gordens office and said he was 100% behind the club, from all reports he hasn't backed it up.

    Re: Stringer needs to “really commit” to dogs, says teammate

    Hardwick said something interesting on Talking Footy tonight while being quizzed about Dustin Martin's ascendency.

    He reckoned he can't take much credit because Dusty plays on instinct, but made the point Martin's now "doing the things (off field preparation, looking after himself) I never thought I'd see him do" because he now knows what's required to reach these levels and stay at the top of his game.

    Maybe the club should get Dusty and Jake in the same room together.

    Dusty did the right thing which has now lead him to earn huge dollars.

    What Jake needs to do is knuckle down, become a super star then go for the big dollars. No one is going to give him a 1 milion plus right now. You have to work hard for money like that. Talent alone is not good enough
