So one of two things happen;
1) Boyd will play for the Giants in 2015 then head to Whitten oval in 2016 after his contract expires, and GWS trade picks for Griffen, possibly 4 and 7
2) they change their mind and do the deal that both playes have requested
i dont get the thought of holding players against their will, surely if they've said 'I want to go elsewhere' then their loyalty is not there and they wont perform at 100%.
What i'd love to see is us trade Grif for picks then swap those picks (say 4 and 6) for 1 and get in McCartin, then sign Boyd in 2016 and have 2 of the best young forwards going around and hopefulyl make them count!
RE Cooney and Jones, it would be sad to see Cooney go but he's 29 so no big loss, and Jones, well bugger me he's our Jonny Butcher, main difference being we have no-one that can take his place in our best 22, now THAT is sad!
