    Can’t play. No thanks.
    What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

      That’s why I said Footscray, I don’t want him in the AFL team.

        Wouldn't we have said the same thing about Sam Reid (GWS version) up until 12-18 months ago? Now he's a vital cog in one of the best teams going around. I'm not saying that we should recruit Kerstan but sometimes a player's worth goes past pure ability.
        They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

          If Cordy plays forward he could play that tall(ish) competitor role anyway.
          That relies on us getting KPD cover for him though.

              Cordy should play forward all the time. I'd rather see Called Daniel falling over and giving away simple frees. It's like Cordy is a different player when he plays that mobile 2/3rd mobile type forward role. He's far less clumsy in attack, I wonder why we play him in defence

                I don’t know about Tom Brownes sources, or if we are it. Saw on Twitter he reckons we’ve offered Tippa $450,000 a season and Essendon don’t really have the salary cap to match it. I assume he stays for less or comes across and Dodo gets a little snookered.

                Also said there’s a three way chase for Tomlinson: Dogs, Dees, Saints.

                Doesn’t have us in the hunt for either Hill.

                If we retire Morris, Dicko, Suckers & move on Roberts & Webb (Williams?). We could sign Tippa & Tomlinson and still have over a million bucks left to go after Martin & Keith etc.

                  450k for Tippa is a good deal. If he comes for that I'm stoked.

                    Martin has had a very average season. Only 8 possies on the weekend. Might improve in a better side.

                        Martin is the X factor and Tippa the fast tackling pressure forward, we need both.
                        I believe both would be better with us.

                            Could we really see Tippa leaving the bombers. He seems like their most loved player and one of those players that bring fans through the gates. Would love to get him.

                              Out of contract with three games to go says yes. Amazing that he hasn't been wrapped up prior to this.
                              I should leave it alone but you're not right

                                Word is the Bombers are working on a deal with him. I personally reckon he's worth 500-550k he's a freak of a player. I think it's where we need to be if we have any hope of extracting him.
                                But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.
