Welcome to the Tigers Jacob Hopper

They won’t accept that, I‘d like to see pick 31 and HRS, maybe a swap of round picks next year.
We‘ve moved out of this years draft, I’d hate to lose round 1 of next years too.
No way the deal gets done without next year's first round pick involved

Reasonably confident that Banks, will be a better player than Hugo, so might Brown. Therefore i would rather that Hugo's part of the Hopper deal than Soldo.

I'm confused. Why are they wanting more than pick 31 and F1st with Hopper but then announce Whitfield and Haynes as possible trades too?
Absolutely amateur stuff,u can ignore Whitfield etc ,all rubbish lies,it's such a bad attempt and tigers would know this.

If GWS is shedding 4-5 players for salary cap reasons then they were surely well over the cap this season. Taranto, hopper,bruin, Whitfield and Haynes = serious salary cap issues. Why are they not being investigated?
Gws have been over the cap by millions before corrupt afl just tells them to fix it with no punishment, if it was Richmond, they would pump us,afl.sees gws has its own club.

It's getting done. Get your head around it.
It should get done but not if it includes our future 1st.
This is a salary dump no question and the RFC is under no obligation to pay other than a fair compensation.
A player, maybe 2 and pick 31 is that.
The clubs interests will not be properly supported if the trade includes a future 1st.

That's what's doing my head in, they need a few out, but they want him to stay. I can only assume it's because they'll get bugger all for him next year, so they want to cash in.
He'll gws know that they can clean up their cap or just be half a million over as they will be protected by afl.
 
In all seriousness, if we end up landing Taranto AND Hopper without having to find at least a couple of top ten picks from somewhere, we’re making out like absolute bandits.

I mean, landing one of them would have been amazing. But both?? This is once in a generation stuff. You don’t spit in the face of the footy gods for the sake of a pick in the teens and/or fringe players. Hell no. You sign on the dotted line as fast as you can before the universe finds a way to restore itself to a state of equilibrium.

Get it done, tiges.

If Soldo’s had a medical, things would have to take a 90 degree turn for Hugo to be involved.
