Well, I think it helps the fact that he's reassurance that he's got a job for the next few years.
Obviously, there's a lot of pressure being that they – pressure that the fact that they re-signed him when he still had years to go and there's obviously been a lot of talk about that, the money that he's on.
especially with what St Kilda have spent over the last few years.
That's probably put him into the same bag as De Kooning and Nass with where their salary cap's going.
So that's a little bit of pressure.
But I think players have to expect that.
This is the way that football's gone with the amount of money that they are earning.
But having a contract there reassuring that you've got a home for the end of that deal and both teams want to part ways.
So that would be reassuring for him.

Then they went and got the best player.

So you look at this and it's probably two things that, yes, tick the box, that's how you're going to get the most.
matched
Getting the best player from Geelong who'd won premierships, won a Brown loan and put him up there.
matched
But does that lead to success?
matched
I think the best way out of the two was the way Gold Coast, as the way the Giants had followed with their pathway, and that was go and get some former players in McDonald, in Power, in Brogan.
