Rumour Leuenberger to leave Brisbane

[a mayes ing]

Bit of a coincidence don't you think? Where there is smoke there is fire.. but keep fighting the good fighter tiger

I know quite a bit more, but you get in trouble round here for posting reliable information. One thing I will say is that there is no possibility of Rockliff continuing on as sole Captain next year, either he will be given the boot or will be a co captain with another less combative leader.

what a crock of s**t. Are you secretly from Collingwood?

 

[iBeng]

The recent reports about Rockliff's unpopularity as captain and the divide he has put in the playing group have done nothing but vindicate me.

Lions have informed leuenberger he will not have his contract renewed next year ..... What is Leppitsch doing

Little slow there buddy. We were always going to trade 1 of Martin and Leuey.

What good is it having 2 number 1 rucks on big coin if neither of them can play up forward. It doesn't matter what the Lions do this off season they will always be criticized

Well done champ. You're only three weeks behind. But keep trying, you'll catch up.

 

[Abomination]

The club seems almost gleeful letting these players go yet cry foul that players don't want to be there and start demanding priority picks?

Huh? Are you confusing some posters on Big Footy with "the club"?

 

[The Real JG]

So we should just keep every player except the ones that want to leave under their own accord?

Do we know Leuenberger wants to stay?? Do we know if the $$ he is asking for is what the Lions are willing to pay. The Lions can't keep people for the sake of it.

 

[Matchu]

So where is Leuey going? The Dogs?

 

[baz_machine]

Players obviously in the market are

Dogs
Swans
Essendon
Richmond (maric is almost done and you don't want Hampson as numero uno)

Rucks on the market

LBerger
Z Smith
and then Lycett / Lobbe might move for the right trade
i expect TBC to walk / trade if essendon sign LBerger / Smith

 

[Milux]

Id be ok if we got smith if luey leaves.

Well its like comparing a kid two seasons into development verses a ruck whos barely managed 100 games in something like 7 or 8 seasons.

 

[baz_machine]

well you can put a line thru him going to essendon with TBC re-signing

 

[Eons]

Yes, because TBC isn't injury prone at all.

 

[baz_machine]

Yes, because TBC isn't injury prone at all.

oh I agree but Bombers have obviously got an injury prone ruck cheaper than playing overs for L Berger.

For the record, I would have preferred L Berger as number 1 ruck at Essendon

Between the 2 of them you would get a full season.

Looks like it was true in the end. Essendon appear to have landed him.

Care to elaborate? Not doubting you just wanting to know

 

[bresker]

Strong mail says he going to the Bulldogs. Not my words, but from a usually reliable source.

Minson going elsewhere?

Luey would be a great get for the doggies

 

[iBeng]

Its going to be tough but I can see Burger player at 3 clubs next season, giving each team about 7 games.

Are you guys going to overpay him so we get a band 1 compo?
