If we do offer him another contract, it will surely be on a year by year basis, and on a much reduced wage. I can't see any other club being interested, except as a depth player.
I agree but isn't there a thread on "what were they thinking when they signed Daisy?"
It looks like it is going to be a good day for the footy and I'm revising the number of layers I will wear

The MCG is magnificent in the sunshine. The usual swirling breeze is evident but it should be good day for footy.
It's a pity there aren't more people here.
The hovercraft has just made an appearance. I want one!

Joe Biden is on the ground, accompanied by some scary dudes

EDIT : we don't have the depth to take risks on injury prone players.
Signing Thomas wasn't a mistake in itself, the dollars were but we've made far worse mistakes in recent times.
As I said earlier, losing Jacobs was a far bigger error and I could list at least half a dozen others over the last four or five years, in Daisy's case at least it only comes down to money.
How is pick 7 for Jaksch, Whiley and Boekhorst looking?
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.
