    Is Callan going to GWS?

    Well we have a month of footy left and I'm interested to hear from all those WOOFERS who voted on the 'Is Callan leaving poll' to assess if there has been any change of heart on this matter. This poll is just to assess if WOOFERS have changed their mind. It would be best to keep general discussion about this topic central to chef's existing thread.

    So, where are we at now? Is there any variation to the 75% staying and 25% going ratio as per the existing poll?
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

    Going. If the GWS offer is as ridiculous as reported, he'd be mad if he didn't.
    The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

    Seems similar to Harbrow's situation, in that the less we hear, the worse it is.

    I'll be devastated.

    Players dont generally switch for money, they switch for success

    GWS wont be playing finals until 2016-2017 at least so good luck to Callan in ever playing in a GF - because I doubt GWS ability to attract and retain players soley for dollars and reach a GF in the foreseeable future

    If he leaves good luck to him - it will just consolidate the fact that poorer clubs like us, Melbourne and North will continue to suffer and loose players like we have throughout our whole existence, and it will make it even tougher for us to ever win another flag...

    If we get 2 first round draft picks for him then I wont be complaining though

    Ward and Scully will be hunted men every match they play - they are going to earn all of the extra money that they are payed via the extra attention the opposition will pay to them....and I hope they enjoy the multiple >100 point thrashings that will be handed out to them week-on-week in 2012 and enjoy all of the bumps and sledging that is coming their way as having to carry the midfield as 21 year olds.

    I don't know if he's decided yet but like most men his age I'd be surprised if he chose less money over more regardless of the loyalty factor. I also reckon Connors will be whispering in his ear, driving him to the airport and buying the ticket to Sydney himself to get it done. He's probably got the pen ready to hand to Cal (if it was allowable to sign now of course )

    Connors is probably clicking a pen in Callan's ear

    I voted he was going from the start and still think the same. He's playing like a man with his mind at ease ATM IMO.

    GWS is a "We're only in it for thr Money" option. I have a feeling he will stay as his future with the Bulldogs looks assured. He has developed brilliantly this year and looks that even next year he could match Griff and Cooney (hopefully) a the most valuable players in the club.

    Without knowing his leadership qualities, Captaincy following Boyd may be a possibilty. I am sure the $$ over the years at the Dogs will be enough.

    The lifestyle between playing for GWS and The Dogs is worlds apart.

    Couldn't decide a month ago but now I'm sure he's gone. The longer it goes the worse it looks (for us).

    Interesting theory.

    He's hamming up his asking price with a few BOG performances in the second half of the year if you ask me.

    The ratio is taking a downward turn from the one you started a month ago Chef.
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

    I hope not but that's what my head is saying.
