    With open arms. He oozes leadership.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

          Logic would suggest yes. But I could never support him in a Dogs jumper again, the way he played in that last game for us and the build up to his departure has soured my view of him and damaged my love for the Club (albeit briefly).

          Why has this been brought up? Any news to suggest he might want out of GWS?

            He signed a 5 year contract. Ask me again in 3 years

              No, he preferred to line his pockets rather than stick with us when we really needed him. All well and good if that was his attitude towards our club, but I won't forget what truly motivates him.

                The question should be with our developing list, should we pay his asking price and have to let others go. I would rather buy a KPP with what would be needed to secure him. Different question though...

                  Yes, with some reservations - on our terms ... but he's no Daniel Cross.

                    This, its probably vindictive but I hate seeing him run out for the Giants, his name has a black mark through it for me

                      Yep. Could have been an immortal in Red, White and Blue. Just a nobody now.

                        Bulldogs through and through? It's a no for me, I don't think he would be good value.

                          This for me. Obviously the money is more important to him.

                            We'd sell/trade just about any one of our players into a poorer situation if it meant we'd benefit.

                            Footy's changed.

                            I didn't like the fact we left him exposed, and I didn't like the way he handled the situation, he shouldn't have played the last game.

                            If attaining his services at a price that wasn't detrimental to our overall list I'd take him back in a second. He's a gun.
                            TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.

                              No, he has no loyalty except to the filthy lucre. Plus it would cost an absolute fortune to bring him back.
