I hate to be the bearer of bad news, and I hope I never see the day this happens BUT
I have heard a rumour from a reliable source that there is every chance that Eric Grothe will link up with the Bulldogs in 2011 and he is curently negotiating the possibility.
If this happens I will be shattered and heartbroken. It would be just as bad as a Mortimer being an Eel.
I thought you all should know so that everyone can prepare themselves for the worst.

We'd have an extra $250k and wouldn't have lost anything except for kicks that go straight to the opposition and a lack of direction.
As for Grothe, good on him. If they can offer more than we will (if we are offering anything) then he should take it. He's missed half the year through injury, and looks like he may not play again this year. Grothe is one of my favourites but he is getting on in years and injuries are plaguing him.
