    Or he stays, knuckles down, finds some form and looks at his contract status next year. Him staying is a fine worst case scenario.
    For me him staying is best case scenario.

    The player always holds the whip to me, they pick which club they want to go to and then the clubs negotiate.

      We all hope that. Hopefully he has a look from the edge and doesn't like what he sees.
      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        I agree what was said about Jake not reading the situation . How does he think it was going to be perceived by rocking up late to training and tardy with his rehab ?

          Heard this one from my cousin a keen doggie supporter.
          Armitage from St Kilda and our first pick to GC, we'd get Peter Wright and Saints would get Stringer.

            Stringer and 9 for Wright?

            We are getting reamed.

            Saints getting Stringer for Armitage. Yeah, nah.

              Has to be St Kilda's pick 7 or 8. Can't possibly be our pick.

                Wright for Stringer would be a decent trade.

                      Yeah, as Sedat said it'd have to be Ainters tossing in a pick.

                        Yep. If we got Wright it would be a good trade for us.

                          Yeah that making the best of a bad situation for sure. We would be in desperate need of a medium sized forward without Stringer though.

                            Get them to throw in Branden Matera to help out with the small forward thing too. Blood Lipinski as the mid sized forward unless one pops up.

                              Certainly not a medium forward as mercurial as Skinner but I'd be happy with Wright. We'd have to sweeten the deal surely? Wright is a high draft pick who has barely put a foot wrong since he came into GC's side.
                              They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                                Stringer has the potential to be the next Dusty. He is 23 and has so much talent but just needs to get his head right and support around him. Dusty wasn't exactly turning heads his first few years. If we trade him and I see him in a few years time demolishing us with the fend off and racking up 30 possessions then I'll spew. He was AA a couple of years ago. I think we need to keep him next year and put him in the midfield and let the Bont be a tall option up forward (we just need to find someone that can teach everyone to kick straight).
