    Me thinking this also.

    Would be a win-win if all parties can agree to terms.

    Doesn't Davey want around $600,000 per year?

    I think i heard on the radio that was his asking price, not many clubs would fork out that much.

    Yes he wants that over 4 years, ie a total of around $2.3 million

    I'm convinced the media either get fed bullshit intentionally by the player managers trying to help their own cause or simply make stuff up.

    It was reported earlier this year that we were interested in Marcus Drum. The reply I got was,"I'd rather Damian Drum".

    Don't believe everything you read this time of year. Journo's read BigFooty too.

    I actually think Rocket handles fringe players brilliantly.

    I am on record as being passionately against trading. My main issue is how do you ask for passion and loyalty if you are going to pimp blokes around to the highest bidder?

    Have a look at the blokes who have wanted out recently - McMahon, Power, Everitt... Common link? All lack hardness and intensity that doesn't fit in with Rocket's style.

    I think Rocket deliberately upsets blokes he want to be shot of so that to the rest of the team it looks like they want out rather than the club offering them about.

    They clearly read WOOF too.

    It's amazing the number of times stuff we make up in speculation finds its way into the papers in its original (unsubstantiated and unresearched) form!

    For which I'm very pleased about although there was a bit more than just speculation to this story. For a contracted player to be permitted by the club to be interviewed by at least 2 clubs I know of indicates the club was at least open to the idea of a trade. Very pleased that the club held their ground and didn't fire sale Dre. The salary cap pressure must've made it tempting.

    Dre should feel really satisfied that we did our best but that other clubs didn't rate him as highly as we do hope he pulls his finger out now !!

    Well hopefully he matures in the head and finds some passion to play at the highest level. He has to realize he has an opportunity that thousands of kids out their don't get.
