        Chin up comrade. Better than a dose of novachok for falling out with dear leader.

            Mitch Cleary reporting:

            Sydney has shown interest in Essendon’s Aaron Francis with discussions progressing. The Bombers are happy to facilitate a trade for the 25yo former first-rounder for a fresh start.

                  You mean teams interested in pick 7, with Jack Bowes as steak knives.

                    This just feels like one of those ones you've gotta be in the conversation for. I had the same feeling with Treloar and I'm glad that worked out. Wish we were at the table on this one. Imagine if we'd had picks 1, 2, 7 in 3 years and not missed the finals?!

                      Unless we really rate Bowes as a player it feels like too big a hit to the salary cap that would seriously hamper our ability to do other things now and in the future. It's being reported as $850K per season for the next 2 years.

                        I think he is a reasonable player and I'd have been interested in getting him for a 3rd rounder.
                        That said picking up 1.6M over the next 2 years is crazy money.

                          He might agree to spread the $1.6 over 4

                            To help the Suns he kept pushing back money which got him into this position. Lets see if he can work with a club.
                            He might ask for a 2M over 4 year deal.

                              I agree.

                              Next year Ben McKay comes out of contract. If we want to pitch an offer to him we will need $850k per season I suspect. We can't allow our cap to burst and cut us out of the race for any player who might make a genuine difference.
                              Pick 7 would be nice to have. I'm hoping Brisbane can earn it for us.
