List Mgmt. OFFICIAL: Scott Selwood moves to Geelong as free agent

[Willo_]

and no doubt would really want to perform in a team with his brother as Captain and (generally) the best player.

having brothers myself I reckon he would want to OUTPERFORM his brother

 

[Footy Smarts]

If he wants to come it'll be about playing with one brother and having Troy involved at the club too. No reason to think he wouldn't accept a lower contract to achieve that. If he's willing to come at a reasonable rate it seems a no brained to me.

 

[CatTricks]

He won't break the bank.
He will get 400-500 and the Eagles will get a second round pick.

he is done and dusted
nice addition to a weak midfield

Awesome!

 

[Mahlepi]

question is, is he better than than our fifth round pick
answer is yes, move on people he is coming home

Wait - move on where? Why? Is it too crowded in here? I get claustrophobic...

 

[Biggy_Boy]

I reckon we've got heaps of cap space. Built up through front-ended contracts still in play, new back-ended deals (e.g. Hawkins), banked 2014 TPP and retirements in 2015. Pure_Ownage does a good explanation of this. I don't think it's the limiting factor.

If Motlop leaves, that will leave a pretty big hole too.

there is no if
I think the club recruited cockatoo in anticipation
they had a fair idea on sel, and pd and then loaded to get cockatoo

these moves are in the making
we just need to rip something of value out of Richmond, as their first round pick is not enough if he ends up there

move on to another issue
the selwood comparison needs to be a spec pick in the draft as he doesn't cost a pick

Richmond types, don't tell me 'and Taylor Hunt'

I like the guy, but not in a trade

Motlop's not going anywhere. People are reading too much into him holding out for more cash and fielding offers from rivals.

Do you know that definitively?

I have had a gut feel he is going all year, and nothing will change that until he puts pen to paper I'm afraid

 

[Mahlepi]

Do you know that definitively?

the club have made him a fair offer and he wants between 200 to 300k more - geelong will not pay what he thinks he deserves

 

[catempire]

Do you know that definitively?

No. But I have not seen a single sign to the contrary.

 

[CatTricks]

I have heard this from 2 other people also. I just hope it doesn't happen.

 

[Mahlepi]

No. But I have not seen a single sign to the contrary.

listen to the cookman talk about the motlop situation, and you will have no confidence in the deal being done

I have no brothers , but a cricket side of cousins , sport at Christmas used to be playing Basket Brawl... so yes I'd agree with you. But the first time someone whacks him , watch the wheels on the Scooter roll.

yeah I am not a violent person at all, but the only time I ever got involved in that on the footy field was when someone went at my younger brother

Id say its a young midfield that needs some mature help but lets not play Semantic Tennis

What would that be ..their theme song.. nothing else appeals

Anyway wrong thread for the discussion

Here its all about the Scooter

 

[Catatonic Shock]

McBean perhaps.

What about that Taylor Hunt fella? Right age bracket.
