    Re: Cameron Mooney and Luke Darcy say maligned Western Bulldog Tom Boyd should take a pay cut to ease pressure

    Tongue in cheek more than anything else, though the HUN had a spread stating he'd consider leaving if the world was offered to him and if it was the best thing for his family about two weeks ago.

    He did say his intention is to stay a Bulldog and be a one club player because we had faith to pick him at 5 when others were off him due to his leg break, but they all say that type of thing mid contract.
    TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.

      I would be surprised if he left, however, throw big money at a player and it is hard to resist.

        Weren't we struggling to fill the cap a year or so back.
        He couldn't have his first year with us front-loaded - the first two years of a draftee's contract are mandated by the AFL.

          Can we just give him a $50 pay cut and tell the media he took a pay cut for the good of the club? The amount of which is confidential. Just to spin the media a bit.

            Yeah right, makes sense. I remember that thread now. I even commeneted that if offered enough of course he'd go and I wouldn't blame him.

            Gut still tells me his preference wont be to go.

              Does this type of situation need Bevo to do a Bomber style 'all of you...ALL OF YOU' rant at the media?

              I find Cam Mooney raising this and then having the gall to say he 'feels sorry for him' laughable. What a ____ idiot. This yarn couldn't have been more manufactured.

                We need to do something.. The constant bullshit discussion from these media wannabes has to be dealt with... But as usual we sit on our hands.

                It would take a Gary Ablett or Tom Boyd like deal to drag Stringer away which I can't see happening in the short term.. Either that or the ass falls out of our team and we become a cellar dweller in the next 4-6 years... That isn't happening either.

                  At the same time, getting involved perpetuates the situation as well. We just need a Young Tall/Tom Boyd fact sheet to hand out or provide a link when necessary.

                  Barrett: Luke, why are you so Tom Boyd stupid?
                  Bevo: Here's your fact sheet chickenhead.

                    The media must be going crazy down there at the moment. You're all starting to sound panicked

                    I'm not so sure we need to be addressing every fantasy the media concocts
                    If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

                      Didn't he get fined for his recent tiff with Cordy? If so, he's already reduced his pay!
