So 2 blokes that were going to be delisted have joined your club, pretty sure they wernt in a position to be picky.
They also know they are assured of AFL games when the suspensions are handed down

Plus Chapman

Who are the 7 that will be suspended, will have to be Jobe?
You still have Jetta contracted for another year dont you? Should have said we will take Aylett if you take Jetta

Not sure of which players but was told the club is preparing for the worst and were doing behind the scenes work to get the charges cut down significantly.
And even if we offered to pay Jetta's final year no club would want him, Roosy likes taking duds at Melbourne, maybe we can send him there with the other Jetta spud

His manager should be the most sought after in the AFL, anyone that can get Jetta a contract and for more than one year is a genius. Maybe Jetta really suffered when the "supplements" program ceased

Big win to the Pies, get in a good young kid and send a flog the other way.
Think of all the booze and gear that Shaw can buy in Sydney for $700k

Its not pick 22 though, with the compo picks it works out to pick 26.
Essendon are trying to swap our pick 66 for their pick 42 in the deal aswell

Shaw is no flog. Yeah he gets emotive and demonstrative, but is passionate about footy and I think he can be a good leader for the GWS kids during the back half of his career.

I will remember him for that smother on Rooey in the goalsquare during the GF rematch, hope he guess well at his new club.

Obviously FIGJAM sees it differant, couldnt wait to run him out of town.
Collingwood have had an excellant draft period so far

Collingwood are paying some of Shaw's contract next year to get the deal done. GWS were not happy with just a straight swap

Even pick 26 is a huge win for the bombers, let alone also getting 42 for 66.
IMO he's a very ordinary player who has a habit of dropping his head in marking contests.
