        Waldron is a sad, sad man trying to cling to any semblance of relevance he once had. Ignore and pity him only.

          That is exactly what I think as well.

            Reasonable chance I would say. There are some fairly strong opinions that both Melbourne and Collingwood are ahead of us.

              I seriously hope we've got some irons in the fire and we are just keeping quiet publicly like we did with Boyd.

                According to Lever himself he has not had any meetings with Melbourne.

                    Has Caro changed her view. A couple of weeks back she said Dogs were in front and the Collingwood talks/interview were not good.

                      I haven't seen anything from Caro but my mail is that we are in the mix but perhaps behind both Melbourne and Collingwood.

                          I've heard that Collingwood stuffed up their pitch to him, but personally I suspect (purely based on media discussion) we might be behind Melbourne.

                          Regardless of "mail", it wouldn't really make sense to go past two clubs with extremely bright outlooks to play for one that can't even so much as operate a light switch.

                            You would think we would be the " go to club" out of the three , Melbourne are looking like rabble again and Collingwood are going through a review of everything while we are just going to get better

                              I tend to agree, Lever to the Pies probably won't make them that much better in terms of finals contention but they are one of the biggest clubs and would still be regarded as a destination club.
                              If he came to Melbourne or us then it improves already strong lists that are regarded as finals bound.

                              You could imagine Adelaide would probably prefer that if he has to go then the Pies can offer them an earlier pick.

                                I don't think we will be out bid by any large amount so it's probably not purely a dollar value consideration that gets it done.
