    Dale Morris recently too. I think everyone is starting to realise this thing is headed towards him staying and working things out with everyone at the club. Or quit the game.

      If Stringer stays, do we still get Crozier?

        Of all eventualities, really hoping this is where we end up.

          If he stays I think it means we can bring in just 2 players from other sides and that will be Trengove and one other

            It's not going to be easy. He won't improve and get better in a linear fashion. It will probably be a couple of steps forward followed by a relapse of the problem behaviours. It takes years to tame those demons and they are tricky. I'm a smart guy and they ran rings around me.

            We need as many players who can kick properly as possible. If you can kick we've got a spot for you.

            I really hope Stringer stays and turns it around. I'd love to see that happen.
            They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

              If we can move someone like Clay Smith on.

                Kind of ironic if we bring in Crozier and trade out Clay Smith.
                More of an In Bruges guy?

                  Did Stringer turn up tonight?

                    Not sure. Can’t blame him if he doesn’t though.

                          I can understand why he wouldn't. Reciprocally, he can understand why lots of people will say he should of.

                            Re: Stringer Trade Worth

                            Seems simple to me.

                            We say we want a top 10 pick. Essendon offer 11 for Stringer and 26. We refuse. Essendon offer pick 11 and we accept.

                            I'd love to see him stay and turn it around but it won't happen. Essendon will cough up 11.

                              You're probably about right. I'd love to see Stringer stay and realise his real ability with us but it ain't gonna happen.

                                At least we're saying the right things publicly in order to maximise his trade value. Whether Essendon takes the bait is another matter.
                                Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.
