      Jeez Baz, you are a sensitive soul. You criticised the AFL for removing GWS's CoLA at the same time as they removed ours. My question was a fair one. I'm still waiting for an answer.

          Just heard same. If true would be brilliant recruitment. Big mid. 24 years old. I think their might be something in it although he signed a long term contract with the Dogs less than a year ago tying him to them until 2022. How can we pay for it (in trade terms)? The reasons I'm not writing this off are 1) he's exactly what we need and we have cleared some cap space for something. 2) I watched his acceptance speech when he won the runner up for the Bulldogs B&F and his demeanour suggested something might be up.

              its more credible if you dont know the source. but if you really want to know there is a flog on twitter who names him/herself the trade whisperer, claims to be a media insider
              but in reality just another big footy moderator

                  The answer is they both need cap space

                          Lachie Hunter won the Dogs B & F this year however McRae was top of their most disposals list. If we get him I think it may have something to do with out new recruitment guy being from the Dogs.

                                This McCrae stuff is just nonsense, not worth uttering his name again. As much creedence as Parker to Essendon, so please stop.

                                Also doubt there's any player coming from the Saints.

                                We'll probably get in a couple of bottom six types, trade our first for a couple of seconds for more points and head to the draft for Blakey and a couple in the mid 30s. The real cream will be in the rookie draft of course!

                                That would be his WA U18s coach? How has this come to be discussed in the west? Not that I think we're getting a Saints player in the trade.
