is Daw AFL ready yet?
He's barely VFL ready. Has talent but going to need an absolute monster preseason to get up to scratch. Wouldn't want to be counting on him should Goldy go down.

Losing Hmac and Pedersen could be...bad. :-X

Yeh that what I thought. Both would be a massive loss

He is contracted with North Melbourne until the end of 2013 so any departure from Aegis Park would have to happen via a trade.
Couldn't he delist himself?

no?

I have a very bad feeling about free agency. I think it might send player payments much higher.

Ziplock

they'll just crank the salary cap then :P

And up go ticket costs. I've heard that it costs US$200 to go to the baseball :(

roo boys!

Certainly could be, really hoping we don't let that happen. HMac as good as gone now IMO, so Pedo should and hopefully does stay.

They're already doing it. :-X

Roughly 400k increases per year, and in 2016 it's going to be 10 mil +.

Ziplock

that's actually not that much more than the inflation rate.

Apparently his manager said that he thought he'd end up at Coll but haven't heard it myself.

Hmac going to Geelong would seriously piss me off.

Wish he came to Hawks. Mind you, I am happy with how Hale is travelling.
