Re: Trade Rumours 2024
So we are basically down to XOH as a potentially In and thats about it from a trade front?
I must say considering we knew Smith was going and that Macrae and Daniel were off the pace early it's a little surprising that we haven't been able to land anyone.

I?d be disappointed if we had no ability to hold some of our cards to our chest and all of our business was leaked out.
Lets wait and see.Lots to play out.

There will be someone else delisted from another club, we'll get one of them, don't stress.

This is the key point. We know that we have CHASED a few big names - Barrass, Holmes, Houston, SDK, even Butters is being reported - and then looking at some smaller names in XOH, Peatling, etc. I don't think the club can be accused of not trying, or not recognising the need to improve the list - but unfortunately those players chose not to come to us.
I'm sure that our contract terms and pitch were good - but when someone else is whispering "we'll give you another farm" it's a lot more enticing than "here's a brown paper bag filled with tortilla chips".

Re: Trade Rumours 2024
Other names will emerge. We are still in with a chance for Peatling and if he stays at GWS then they might be more open to trading XOH.
I wouldn't mind us having a talk to Finn Maginness and Deven Robertson. It's still very early in the process.
