Welcome to the Tigers Jacob Hopper

Its *smile* disappointing that they don't feel they need to communicate with their 100k members on something as critical as trades! It's not good enough. Every other club does it and yet for some reason Blair can't be bothered.
Prefer our quiet approach to leaking like a sieve.

Keeping a low profile is part of his strategy.

I have always doubted that he would leave us no picks this year and without a first next year.
I think we may be in for a surprise that might yet include 2 of George, Jack and Ivan.
 
Tom Browne reporting Richmond feel they can get Jacob Hopper without having to give up Ivan Soldo

Keeping the negotiations behind closed door seems way more professional to me. Just come back in 2 weeks and find out what happened. Not the Tigers job to create outrage and clicks.

Blair is in a stare off with McCartney
 
Hopper deal is done. Soldo is staying. Take it to the bank - F1 & 31 and we get some late picks back!!

Well done Blair credit where its due.

This guy confirmed Taranto and Hopper were Punt Rd bound on 7th September so this will be on the money

Sure hope so Some reports we’re saying for Hopper we give F1 31 late pick & Soldo
If true, it'll be interesting to see how we kept Soldo and convinced them someway. Maybe GWS drank too much during this poker game.

Geez, this trade is like you’ve been sitting in a fully booked economy class seat on a long haul flight to Europe doing a movie marathon and eating everything dished up to you including pinching your neighbours bunghole. No water either, just beer.

GWS will need our picks for O'Meara and couldn't convince Soldo to commit in time so had to bite the bullet and take the 2 picks available to give them time to get O'Meara done.
 
Just reading some GWS fans comments on BF, I hope it's not Hopper being wishy-washy on the contract we offered.
