To get Waite and Higgins is very handy for the Roo's but if it leads to loosing Greenwood due to salary issues then it really tarnishes the deal. Roo's have to retain Greenwood but is the money there.
That's the issue I'm a bit concerned about. Not sure how North is sitting salary cap wise but would hope they've ensured they have enough to keep Greenwood.

trade radio boys make a compelling arguement he wont fit in the 22 once you bring waite and higgins in
Lol, he was close to their best player this year. I wouldn't mind him at the Tiges!
Greenwood will go close to taking home the Syd Barker tonight as Vinny said, no way he's not best 22. Doesn't even play the same role as Higgins or Waite so not sure how that comes about.

Would think Jacobs/Mullett/Bastinac give way for Higgins, and perhaps Black for Waite.

Mailman the 2nd

Malceski's manager says he's keen to stay at Sydney

Yeah, I reckon he finishes top 2.

Agreed, Black for Waite is a no-brainer and Greenwood is easily ahead of the others. No way will he not be best 22.

I don't think he'll leave, but if another club comes to him with a much better offer than Norf's, I'm sure he'd consider it.

i thought North were in salary cap trouble? yet they bring in Missy Higgins and Waite. How can they possibly keep Greenwood then

Mailman the 2nd

Doubt Greenwood would be on much dough at all. You'd have to be wary whether he'll return to his rubbish form from past years

Were they? Concerning  :-\

Perhaps a couple moving onto the veterans list or something in that regard. Not too sure how the new veterans list works

round 2 seems high to me?

It is too high. He's an absolute spud, the most overrated player in the competition! Soft as butter! Lazy! Got dropped this season because he is just not very good. He's almost as shower as Liam Jones.

Wouldn't call him overrated, don't many people rate him too highly. Definitely wouldn't be 2nd round for mine though.

Dogs get lucky, chance to get another strong player if they pick right
