And if you're referring to drugs, then perhaps the player involved shouldn't delve in them if the issue is so damn sensitive.

You don't read the papers or listen to the news then?

I do ... I say, name & shame. Fastest incentive to rebhabilitation.
... but sorry, that's another subject!

The law says that the names are printed.

[i'm-uninformed2]

Would clubs do testing on players being recruited who were known to have problems? Not that I am referring to any one ruckman here of course

Good one, barge arse.

So if Hawks do a deal with the Saints, Spida can say shove it & run the risk of the PSD?

Yes but he can be picked up by any club that wants him. However, the Saints have a higher pick there, and is it right you cant trade a PSD pick?
Also, Spider cannot turn down one club and accept another, yeah?

Bloody hell Annie.... Everyone knows that nothing happens in trade week until the last two hours.... It's all show and no go until about 12 noon on the day of closing...

I remember one year a player missing the deadline by four minutes after procrastinating and teasing about his intentions all week....

Nothing much today but someone posted this on our favourite site. Big footy.

- Sydney has offered a package deal of Spriggs/Chambers + 3rd round pick for Everitt. Malceski will not be on the table. Hawthorn have refused everything and believe Everitt is worth a top 30 pick.
- Nic Fosdike will meet with Port Adelaide officials tomorrow to discuss a move back to Adelaide. However, it is unlikey Port will meet Sydney's asking price of a second-round pick. Big chance to head into the PSD if Port can meet his asking price.

Fosdike is still contracted isn't he?

300k would be a bit to pay a 26 year old who you don't think is worth a 2nd round pick.

I'm betting someone from Hawthorn or Everitt himself made the post on big footy... or his manager.....

I seriously doubt the Fosdike will go to PTA... He's had a taste of success and likes it....

And the chicks are much hotter here in Sydney anyway.. Have you seen the women in PTA????

Didn't someone from here speak to Fossie at the B&F and he totally dismissed the idea of leaving?

Here is the good oil as told to me today by a person who knows very well, someone who tips a fair bit into the club.

It is on the issue of Spida fitting in etc. with what we can best describe as a chequered record with reference to his character.

My mail is he already knows exactly what is expected of him and has known for a while what would be expected of him. Out of the limelight of Melbourne and copious footy shows, he will be subservient and a good servant of the club in what will be his last chance to win a flag.

Echo the others such as Plugger, Bazza etc.

What worries me is all that indicates is an extremely selfish attitude, and not an attitude required to win a flag. He can run and hide all he likes, but he will have to do the things required within the scope and all however. If he in fact turns up with a stinking attitude that says "me, me, me" how will the club look? It isn't the Jolly scenario one where people will back on and say "we were wrong", but the club will look silly.

There is absolutely no chance Everitt will rock up to Sydney with a bad attitude. He wants to play for Sydney and knows that this is his last chance for a shot at a flag. He also comes to the club knowing exactly what will be required of him due to our stringent and well publicised team rules.

The only question mark will be whether his body can hold out for two more years, but a light year in 2005 will help in this regard.

If we do get two full years out of Everitt, he will benefit the club greatly in it's quest for a flag or two as there is no doubt he can play.
