no it's his paranoia

also wtf is the benefit to having a deal not to poach collingwood stars where does GWS win from that? I wouldn't be surprised if they have already signed pendal's last year and thats why he onlt signed a 12 month contract.

If anyone in the media is not in the know it's Thommo
Have to disagree there. He was a senior coach for 5 years and works on one of the most high-profile football shows in the country. Yet he doesn't know anything or know persons that know such?


Have to disagree. Thommo ALWAYS backs up his statements with firm, logical reasons. You may not agree with his logic but he does always explain his statements, unlike Hutchy, who frivoulously bandies about opinion, hearsay and lies and parades them as fact.

He is the anti-media media performer and he is fantastic.

He is also very bitter towards the AFL and purposely pots them at every opportunity. Like a person scorned.

Thus making his opinion anything AFL related worth completely nothing. As it is biased.


You're not going to get a balanced view.

would be just the same as ablett, 2 first round draft picks

I thought that, due to free agency, and that he has been at the club for 7+ years, we dont get anything in return?

You just counted out every opinion on this website too, Spinner.

Correct. Similar to GC and GWS taking players out of contract.

In all honesty, there is no incentive for Goddard to go to GWS.
He wont win a premiership there, he will have a better living standard down here.
Let's remember, Ablett had done everything you could do in football, premierships and Brownlow, so he probably saw it as a good working holiday up on the Gold Coast.
I think BJ is driven to succeed, and he has better chance of doing that down here.
As for all the talk of Gold Coast and GWS dominating in 5 years time, let's just wait and see how many of those draft picks stay with the clubs.
Don't be surprised if a good number of them want to come home after a couple of years, especially as they will still have way more losses than victories.
I'll be honest, wouldn't surprise me if GWS's no. 1 pick patton, ends up with us in a couple of years.


Except for the sanity nothing much has been lost.
