Prediction 2017 Free Agency & Trading - go to the Gibbs thread if you wish to discuss Gibbs!!!

[Golumless]

Either way the likelihood we are getting Rockliff of a good midfielder is slim, there is zero talk or rumours about it

Dusty will resign with tigers in the next few weeks and things will get real flat

Organic growth it seems for our midfield at this stage, I'd start looking who else is around that will be available

Was 0 talk about Gibbs until September, as we seem to do things on the quiet.

 

[Crouch#44]

Gets me annoyed how everyone only feels that Gov is only likely to go home to WA

He is just as likely to head to the kangaroos to be a combo with brown

It's about the $$$$$ these days

And we feel we will still have another shot at him ?

 

[Golumless]

Yeah, that seems to be the plan. Hopefully Carlton aren't as ridiculous this time, seeing having Gibbs this season hasn't helped them that much (Seeing they've gone a little bit backwards this season, thought not too far from breaking even on last)

And what's the back up plan?

**** knows, wait until the period between the grand final and trade period, I suppose, when everything becomes more clearer.

 

[Cleric]

We should be going all out for Rocky as a FA and not Gibbs. He is younger and wont cost anything. We still have our first rounder.

100% agree and I think that's what will happen. Doesn't quite have the class of Gibbs but we just need a genuine inside/outside workhorse who can go forward.

 

[Sanders]

Dan Menzel? Puhlease. Just no

McGovern will be our best forward, easily, within 3 years

Zak Jones would be a star at west lakes

So freo offering 700k to gov? That's a top 10 pick right there

Not with our list management team it's not!

 

[Cleric]

Ben Kennedy cant get a game at Melbourne but has been playing well in their seconds. Its pretty hard to break into their side with all their mids.

What do we want with him?

Is that the Glenelg guy we were all fapping over years ago?

Seen a few of his VFL games over the last couple of seasons, certainly better than that grade, probably lacks a bit of size for a full time AFL midfield role but does burrow in hard in that role from what I've seen. Reckon he'd be excellent midfield/forward depth as he's also very handy up forward and he has a well developed defensive side to his game along with canny goal sense. I could see him pushing for selection at the Crows for sure and like you say would cost very little.

So how will we spend our 20 first rounders?

Going to be tough to say no to that much money...

Hopefully we can convince him we are in the flag window and sign him for a couple of years on unders.

 

[skittlebrew]

Probably just throw them in the bin like the last couple of years.

How would we feel if we were offering 700k to a player say from Geelong who was their fourth best forward

huh?

Lever is a resounding success - even if we trade him this season
Milera is well on the way to being a success
Doedee - Highly rated but was a project player (In a very weak draft I may add)
Gooch - well on the way to being a success

Get his brother in the side.

Yeh coz our drafting has been terrible. Top of the ladder with 0 top 10 picks.

 

[SnakesLadders]

I feel confident we will add a star this off season

That is it
