At that point his value would be limited but at the end of 2019 it would be zero, so we could at least salvage something.
Footscray traded Griffin, their captain, for Boyd, and some years ago North traded their captain for Shannon Grant, you have to give something to get something.
Unless we want to keep trading in the likes of Sumner, Smedts and Wiley, which has worked out well.
B4L if Harry has not shown anything by the end of the year I suspect his trade value would be close to zero anyway without the need to provide a further year's demonstration. There would always be a risk though that some sharp-eyed list manager saw something in him that a club thought could be developed. I can't see that translating into anything of real value for us though.
Reality always wins in the end.
