Apparently Buddy is offered a 9 year contract from Sydney
He's not going to last 9 years in his condition, 5 maybe. I don't think it's right for the SFC to use their cost-of-living allowance funds to make room in the salary cap. I mean, delisting half of their squad isn't going to make room for $10million for one player.
I reckon the AFL should veto. (Extremely biased, but having Tippett and Buddy in the same forward line is mildly terrifying)
Also, Freo's Jayden Pitt has to retire because of a heart condition, which is a bit of a shame.
With Dustin Martin, Dale Thomas, Nick Dal Santo, Eddie Betts and Heath Shaw all looking to be on the move, the 2014 season will be shaken up a bit!
Dustin re-signed with Richmond for two years in the past couple of days; hope Richmond have another good year of draft picks and trades (the only dud this time 'round was Sam Lonergan, and even he's not too bad). Heath Shaw might be a good acquisition if we can't get Taylor Adams.
Betts looks to be going to Adelaide, don't know where Dal Santo'll end up...
