Not much in this article about GWS, its mainly about how the roos lacked vision in not relocated to the gold coast when they had the chance. But it is interesting to see:
Sheedy says GWS have already signed two elite AFL players. He has faith he will get plenty more and eventually win over a legion of fans too.http://www.couriermail.com.au/sport/afl/kangaroos-may-come-to-rue-creating-place-for-the-gold-coast-suns/story-fn842gep-1226073230302
Thoughts?
My thoughts?
To Sheeds, Laycock and Dyson were Elite!
I don't doubt sheedy in the slightest, he could possibly have the 2 best players in the competition, but he is just as likely to of signed Courtney Johns and Paul Salmon.
Either way i'm excited to see the verdict and the list GWS have put together :thumbsu:

According to Matt Rendell from the crows the deal of the 17 years old that we have to on trade is done in August. So it is highly likely that these two elite players are from clubs who have agreed to trade for the 17 year old's. Here is the Rendell interview.

From an older article these are the clubs that were keen on trading for the 17 year olds: Essendon, Collingwood, Richmond, Gold Coast, Freemantle and West Coast.

So we might know our first signings as soon as August.
