The race to sign off-contract GWS star Stephen Coniglio is down to four clubs, according to SEN’s Time On host Sam McClure.
Coniglio, 25, is yet to re-sign with the Giants and is attracting plenty of interest from Victorian and Western Australian clubs, who are closely monitoring his contract situation.
“It’s fair to say that the chase for Stephen Coniglio has well and truly begun,” McClure told The Match Committee.
“He’s flown down to Melbourne this week; he has caught up with his powerful player manager - Tom Petroro.
“My read on it is this … and I want to preface all this by saying I think he is staying (at GWS), but the clubs that are chasing him are clearly now: Carlton, Hawthorn, Geelong and West Coast.
Contrary to recent reports of a planned $1.4 million per season offer, McClure believes St Kilda are out of the running for the midfielder’s signature.
“I think St Kilda are out,” he added.
“St Kilda have made it known that they like him … I don’t think he will go to St Kilda.”
