What I read into that is that they are looking at trading him now (which he knows) rather than losing him to FA now (which they dont know for sure that he will go, he may choose to stay long term). Its all a bit of a mess if you ask me. My preference would be to try and keep him for 2 and hopefully we fire up and he stays longer. If he has to leave, his preference is Geel for obvious reasons and its here that I feel Curly's Boy will cave in and we will end up with dregs off Geel (again).Id love Heeney or Warner in an ideal world but there is no way they would leave Sydney unless fired out the door and thats not going to happen.My thoughts have always been he would love to go to Geelong and be close to family but as you say they dont have the right trade bait imho and would need to get very creative or just stitch us up with rubbish which is highly likely.
My own preference if we have to trade his is to Syd involving Papley or Heeney.
Id want picks in this draft and maybe some points for the Campo kids for the following year not Geelong fringe discards and/or future picks in a weak draft. Then you have the other scenario's of trying to trade with Dodo at Essendon or SOS at Stkilda if TDK wanted the extra dough.
Im not against keeping him but it wouldnt be for big dollars however I agree he is our best trade bait and with an overhaul of the list likely and only one decent draft pick in such a strong draft coming up I cant see the club not testing the market which will make him want out for sure..
