    No surprise he'll chase big money elsewhere, given he gets financial advice from Adam Cooney.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

        What shits me is that less than 12 months after we win a Premiership, we head straight back to our old ways with on field and off field issues surfacing.

            Barrett reads too many forums like BF. I don't believe a word. He latches on to any rumour involving the cub.

              I hope your right but I have a sick feeling in my gut that Barrett is on the money this time.

                In many ways Stringer is an ideal trade-out candidate. Inconsistent but mercurial and brilliant at his best, young enough to be seen as having 'upside' by other clubs, on a high wage with 1 year to go on his current contract. If it's a trade that is on our terms and advantages us, I'm happy to hear the offers. Stringer has too many 5-8 possession zero impact games for someone on the upper echelon pay scale for us. Also can he ever be more than a pinch hitter in midfield with his tank?

                The reality is that if he has another middling year in 2018, that's 3 years in a row and his trade value plummets in 12 months' time.

                  Yep - too often clubs and supporters alike get sucked into what a player can do, and not what they consistently do.

                  How many times has Jake played well in a big game? I can only think of one - v Hawthorn in the SF. On just about every other occasion in big games against good opposition in finals and H&A, he's been ineffective.

                  Any chance we can lure Kelly?

                    Kicked over 40 goals last year - so your 3 is actually 2. He had a bad year this year and so did many others.

                      I was just thinking that. With StevieJ finishing up, and a likelihood of of losing Kelly, Smith, Whitfield, the lure of a flashy mercurial type like Jake to market on, GWS might play.

                        He wasn't great in 2016 - 40 goals flattered him, with big bags against the lower ranked teams.
