Brisbane will take Membrey or Reid gladly

As would the Pies, although we'll get White ( is more of a utility, Gunston like)

Cloke, Reid, White up forward, gun

So, do the Giants now keep #1 and get Boyd?  ???

Of course they will! Patton will be out of the question also. Don't know why GWS wanted Franklin to begin with when they have Boyd.

I think Buddy was a big name that would sell.

They were probably fishing around to see what they could draw out from other clubs

Now if you were the Pies - you would certainly be making a move for Reid wouldn't you?

How Sydney plays that will be MASSIVE!!

the plan was to trade boyd for a really good midfielder, then have franklin up front with cameron and patton.

it was a reasonable plan :P

Exactly. all the reasons you cant put an exact value on.

Bums on seats.
Marketing sales
Advertising $$
Brand awareness.

All really good reasons why the swans also didnt want GWS to get Buddy.

All really good reasons why the Swans have pulled a massive swiftie on this one!!

Now that Sydney have Franklin, surely they make a move for Heater? Sam Reid with Ben, Heath with Rhyce?

Get as much experience for three years, have a good genuine go and they they're older blokes retire. Heater would polish this all off superbly, and Collingwood would be extremely happy with the outcome.

I dont think the Swans want Heater. and dont think we need him.

GWS offered 6 x $1.2m. Swans guzzumped them with 5 x $1.4m. Cost of living allowance most certainly gone.

eski lead the afl in rebounds by a mile i cant imagine you need heater either.

Will cost too much.

With Mummy going im more worried about the ruckline, Pyke and Naismith is shakey.

What does the cost of living have to do with it? Both clubs get it.

Yeah true, didn't think of that. What happens if Pyke goes down with an injury? You can't expect Naismith to take over as #1 ruckman.
