You can back it that Norf had a considerably better $ offer in front of Griffens Logie. Our pitch would have been one of success v cash.
And bet you that priority pick goes to dockers.

So looking at Clarkson at North and if he does go Cadman combined with Larkey & CombenClassic Clarkson, following the Hawthorn template, prioritisng the spine, he clearly sees Logue as his Josh Gibson, he'll probably add Cadman to the mix & then look at bringing in another A class mid. I'm actually very bullish on North, I can see the makings of a top 8 team provided they cease offering up large sums to outside types like Jared Polec. Grundy actually makes perfect sense although you'd question whether he would be happy with a reigning wooden spooner.
Coleman-Jones is a tweener, not good enough for the ruck, not good enough for a key position post. Chol was the one they should have targeted, much more adaptable & is the perfect chop out player when the first ruck needs a spell.So looking at Clarkson at North and if he does go Cadman combined with Larkey & Comben
Coleman Jones is really a square peg
Clarkson had many fails in recruiting too.Classic Clarkson, following the Hawthorn template, prioritisng the spine, he clearly sees Logue as his Josh Gibson, he'll probably add Cadman to the mix & then look at bringing in another A class mid.

He did but he also knows how to build a team from scratch, it's no coincidence that the two recent dynasties have resulted from list managers prioritising the hard to find components first & then adding the finishing touches with astute trading & lowish draft picks. I think Clarke hasn't quite demonstrated that ability as yet although Balta & Gibcus is a decent start, the success ultimately hinging on his ability to find a couple of decent forwards over the next 3-4 years.Clarkson had many fails in recruiting too.
Geez, if a player like Logue can get 5 years, Taranto and Hopper are absolute bargains at 7.5 years for Logue.
Rutten returns to Richmond; Logue to accept five-year deal at Kangas; Tasmania ‘confident’ on AFL licence
Ben Rutten has landed a new position after he was moved on by Essendon, Griffin Logue has told Fremantle he wants a trade to North Melbourne, while Tasmanian Premier Jeremy Rockliff is “confident” the state’s AFL bid would get over the line.www.theage.com.au
We're still waiting for Cornhead's tantrum.Geez, if a player like Logue can get 5 years, Taranto and Hopper are absolute bargains at 7.
Wont be one North are teflon now with Big Al in charge.We're still waiting for Cornhead's tantrum.
Campaigner has stolen a living for 10 yearsSpeaking of 5 year contracts at Norf I just realised Jared Polec is still contracted for 2023!
He is the best 700k for 6 yrs doing sweet FA.Campaigner has stolen a living for 10 years
Pretty sure Cholly was always going to the Coast to be with his family.Coleman-Jones is a tweener, not good enough for the ruck, not good enough for a key position post. Chol was the one they should have targeted, much more adaptable & is the perfect chop out player when the first ruck needs a spell.
If the system ain't broke, why fix it.................the new moto at Arden Street.Norf have been rewarded for been *smile* by getting 2 future draft picks that they must trade this year, so basically it allows them to get Logue and Clark for free………ffs
What a load of garbage. They got themselves in this position so they can get themselves out of it. Geez this competition is so contrived.Norf have been rewarded for been *smile* by getting 2 future draft picks that they must trade this year, so basically it allows them to get Logue and Clark for free………ffs
