| How about a straight swap - Boyd for Cloke: they get a guy who doesn't kick goals and we get a guy who never misses (because he never gets a kick). |

Twenty kicks and four handballs wasn't too bad an effort. Although he may retire in a week. |

Please make it happen. Hampered by a shoulder injury basically the entire year. Anyway, although I enjoy sarcasm we can only dream.
We'll get nothing for poor old Clokey, except some cap relief.

3 kicks against Hawthorn, 2 kicks against GWS - I think you may have the wrong Boyd? |

We don't have to get Clokes salary off our books when we just got Swanny's, Caff's & Tooves off it. Clokes would have dropped substantially if he stayed because he apparently didn't meet certain criteria as well. That is a hell of a lot of TPP savings right there. If we are moving Cloke on I'd say it has zero to do with getting his reduced wage off our books & more a case of lets see what we can get for him. |
Yep, even the recent signings of Treloar and Howe wouldn't have pushed them beyond 95%. |

He was magnificent today, especially after that thug and dud player, Dunn, tried to smash his shoulder at the 1st quarter break. |
Very clever from the Dogs. They strapped his good shoulder!! |
The only problem is - that trick only works once; he wouldn't last a quarter against the Swans, it would look like a scene from Romper Stomper.

I know that. I was being a smart arse. Aren't lawyers trained to write in a clear manner that excludes ambiguity? |

The table below didn't translate well from the AFL website, but LJ would have done well to take any votes away from the names below; most of whom were very influential last saturday against GWS...
