Fair trade.
Equivalent of pick 37 (in points).
And in 4 hours we were getting absolutely nothing for him.
We just traded a player who averages 2 marks a game, let's not over rate him shall we. |

The history of big guys and the time they take to hit their best footy is well known to be a longer ride.
Be careful not to under rate his potential.
That said we cant force guys to sit in the VFL as back ups in case something happens to Grundy. So good luck to the guy. Fair trade IMO. _________________ No Pressure, No Diamonds

I wish him well. We can't keep them all and sadly, I've always thought he lacked the little bit of mongrel needed.

Not criticising the decision here as we really couldn't do anything else, but we will regret this in 3-4 years :-/ _________________ Go Pies!! |

So much for your pick in the 20's inxs88

He played 2 senior games and we have been given overs for him in my view. |
gee culprit, I bet you've been living on your computer the last 11 days waiting to throw that one out! 7-8 spots out! I am a terrible judge. _________________ I love the Pies, hate Carlscum |

Collingwood + the Gold Coast have agree to a deal which will make @j_witts15 a Sun. Picks 44 + 62 come our way. |

That VFL finals game was a shocker.
Curious to see if he gets a game (given Nicholls) or plays NEAFL. _________________ All We Can Be |

I wonder how the Witts v Nicholls battle for NO1 ruck position will play out. Would have thought there were better clubs for him to go to if he wanted more certainty about playing senior footy.
Good luck to him, Think he'll blossom into 1 of the better tap ruckmen in the league, shame it can't be at the Pies. |

In 4 years? So what do we do for 4 years? Pay him to play reserves???
P.S. We won't regret this when Daics and Rowdy are running around in the black and white. He's a slow, old school lumbering ruckman with a few tricks. _________________ Est. 2002 |
