Who would you have JMac target this year?

Re: Who would you have JMac target this year?

I forgot about that one. My guess is that it was seen as helpful to the player but I wonder if the question around us footing some of the salary was part of it as well?

Given the picks were close I can see the AFL ticking that one off and I doubt other clubs would challenge it but I think us getting say pick 30 and Tippet for pick 60 might be more heavily scrutinized.

Surely pick 6 for Lachie Veale is far worse a manipulation of the trade system from us and Hawks, than say Tippett and pick 30 for pick 75 (St Kilda's 5th coming to us) They signed off on the Veale Deal.

There was plausible deniability and I don't think that would fly now.

They aren't close to the same thing though. One was manipulating the draft, this would be 2 teams working on their list

Hypothetically speaking;

Say Lever stays, and we are still allegedly flush for cap space; do we just take on Tippet's whole salary?

In the NFL this past season, the Browns took on an atrocious contract from the Texans, and in the process also obtained a second round pick from them. I think we could look at a similar type deal, taking on Tippet's whole salary and a 2nd pick for a pick in the 160's. He's only contracted for next season anyway, and it would give Dalrymple another swing at a guy in the 20's, which seems to be his passion in life. Plus who knows, he might be not horrible? The guy that the Browns got in their trade is slated to start at Quarterback for them on opening day.

Sydney are rumoured to be chasing every big fish every single year, so they will probably need the cap space Kurt is currently chewing up. I think it makes for a pretty pragmatic move.

As I posted a few pages back, he's contracted until the end of 2020.

He isn't on as much money as he was originally though - he renegotiated a longer term for less dollars.

A massive no way to Tippett, I don't care what he is on.

Agreed - we've already got a younger better Tippett - his name is Tom Boyd.

Tippett was a very good player but those days seem behind him and he doesn't fill a need for us.

Hmm that obscures it a bit then. I'd think about it for their first.

I have this feeling JMAC might be a target himself surely Collingwood come for him?

Well if he leaves it will be for next seasons draft .. A little late for this years one.
It's an interesting thought though as a recruiter do you go to a club that's on the rebuild or stay with a club you have built and know exactly what's going on and your successful.

Anyone else coming around to Rockliff as free agent?

Today: 22 disposals (77% efficiency), 4 marks (2 inside 50), 2 goals & 1 goal assist, 5 clearances, 4 tackles, smattering of other stats. - Against a pretty good midfield today too.

I'm not against him especially given his effort against Bryce Gibbs the other week shows he can another role than just a high possession winner. Apparently he has a few clubs interested in him and we haven't been linked to him yet

I think I saw Port Adelaide were leading the chase, whatever that means mid-season.....

I'm all for adding another quality midfielder to our mix if it allows Bont to play more forward time.
