    I'm sure Warwick Capper would be keen. We could have a two pronged attack. And the advantage is we could draft them as late as we liked. Nobody else is likely to.
    Speaking of the Wizz , he was 41$ at Sportsbet for the Brisbane job !

      I'd want considerably longer odds than that on Warwick capper getting any AFL coaching job anywhere ever if I was going to be tempted to back him.
      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        If they offered odds of a million to one, they might actually get a few suckers to put 5 bucks on it and add a little to their coffers (and a little publicity). $41 is just silly.

          Surely the odds you got would be irrelevant as it just will not happen.

          Even 4 million to 1 would simply be a waste of the effort to take the bet.

                  Am I the boy one that thinks that, for Redpath cover, Drew Petrie for a year for free is better than Cloke at a price??

                  He presents well, would be a better mentor of sorts for Boyd, could come in and out of the side as required, kicks straight and is a pretty good pro..!

                  Just a thought. His returns year on year have been solid enough and he's a decent professional..

                      Yep. He should've been retired two years ago. He's well and truly cooked.

                        Even over done.

                        Last game against GWS, Petrie had 4 touches compared to Cloke 8 marks, 2 goals 2 and 10 disposals.

                        However, I wouldn't want to overpay for him.

                          I'd say so Webby or maybe one of very few.

                              Ben Lennon seeking more opportunities.

                              Wouldn't mind enquiring here, think he's had a few injuries which has stifled his development but the talent is there. Uses the ball well and can kick a goal.

                              Doesn't fit our versatility mantra but he's a solid medium forward option.

                                Prestia without surprise has nominated never playing winning finals, 9th place finishes, vicious fans but a large pay packet.

                                They're going to have to give up their first rounder. But they need to draft, I wonder who they might put up who we might be interested in?
