    Could be some truth in it, the Pies Vice President is Eastern Maar and she is close to JUH and his family.

        Re: Early Trade Rumours 2023

        The JUH rumour was started by one of those troll Twitter accounts that just rattle off a bunch of stuff.

        But we need to assume every club in the land is asking about him- especially right now. Not in the top bracket of best forwards (so could get him cheaper versus if he tears it up next year), but trajectory is impressive and has shown he will likely get there. Super marketable.

        We need to get him signed on. The longer it goes, the more it will cost and the more likely someone might be able to sell their clubs vision. When it comes to Collingwood et al that means bigger crowds, Anzac Day and max blockbusters, and likely opportunities under the table that the big clubs allegedly do better.

          It's being reported that Jack Gunston is seeking a trade back to Hawthorn.

            Believe that the paperwork for Jade Gresham's free agency move to Essendon has been lodged. Now the wait is on what the free agency compensation looks like as St Kilda has weighed up whether it matches or takes the pick.

              Wow. That would be bizarre.

                I'm sure the Hawks would take him back for a year as well but clearly he can't be happy up in Brisbane.

                      He's what I don't get... If there's a simple formula that determines a the compensation depending on the salary compared to other players in their age rage... why do we wait to hear what the compensation will be? It doesn't take a supercomputer to calculate something like that, you're not mining bitcoin. Just tell us!

                          You know I shouldn't be surprised if it turns out they have someone manually enter all the data every time they need to run the calculation.

                            I like Rory. Cannot explain *why* but I’d rather him be around.

                              And what's the bet that there's an error in the Excel macro and no one even realises.

                                We legit can't afford to lose him as he's now technically our backup ruck. We really need someone on the list as a proper backup though. Supposedly Teakle desisted from Port is a chance and fits the mobile English archetype in both the good ways and the worst ways (the few times he played his opponents got brownlow votes and Port fans are calling him the worst player in the league)
