Game of Sloane (THE OFFICIAL HE IS STAYING thread) Thread now closed

[Vooligan]

Rory Sloane is a Restricted Free Agent.

I hope that is correct, and I hope it’s not confirmation bias. Been a few reporting the opposite.

Also can we pick up Guthrie so he stops tearing us a new one whenever we play at Kardinia Park?

Rory Sloane is a Restricted Free Agent.

So it means we can match and force a trade to get better picks, correct?

It’s from the AFL, it’s correct

His original one did rhyme. Just think about it a little harder.

Oh dear, please don’t tell me you thought I was serious!

Oh no! D Mac in unrestricted! Sign him up quick!

On a more serious note, this is the first time he has come out of contract after 8 years of service. Therefore, if he was in our top 25% of salaries, then he would be restricted. At least we know he is not getting paid as one of our top 10 players (this year at least).

He's just above the league average. Probably about right for a 200 game 15-25 ranked player.

Considering I helped put the banner together this week, I can confirm that will not be the case.

But...if we did put his contract on the banner in fine print and Sloaney touched the banner with his hand as he ran out onto the oval would this (in your legal opinion as a member of the Crows cheer squad) constitute offer and acceptance and therefore a legally binding contract?

 

[Wood_Duck]

I hope i haven't wasted a sick day!

2nd week in a row.

 

[Scorpus]

Imagine paying Shaun Atley, Jordan Roughead or Scott Lycett enough money that they are restricted free agents.

 

[FR0GGY]

2nd week in a row.

I know, sloaney better sign before I have to start eating into my annual leave.

Heavily frontloaded.

I just figured you were a little on the slow side Froggy!

Rory Sloane is a Restricted Free Agent.

Its finally settled. Thank **** for that!

 

[WhiskeyTangoFoxtrot]

My first thought when I looked through the FA list was "wait, Atley's still on the NM list? I was even more surprised to see he was a RFA.

I am,that’s whats got me 3 kids.

 

[CrowsFlag2018]

Sloaney just texted me asking to catch up at Gate 7 tomorrow night. Ill know more after our chat.

 

[Tarasque36]

He must be staying! 'Sloaney' just sent me a text regarding cheering them on on Friday night, and prizes at Gate 7!!

Just saw your post CF2018... me too!

Like he'd talk to us if he was leaving!

 

[radiojake]

Last time I got a text from a Crows player is was flipping Danger!


And then Round 1 the following year I got another sms from Danger but telling me to cheer on the Cats! (I used to get heaps of Geelong stuff after buying tickets to a Kardinia Park game)

GAWN

You should have known the homeless guy behind the supermarket wasn't really Rory Sloane. You'll probably leave missing a kidney.

We had a good ping at Lycett, would you rather him or JJ? At least JJ can stay healthy.

None of the above

 

[arrowman]

Not so sure. Isn't that the same Official Patrick Keane who has previously stated, officially and on behalf of the AFL, that Sloane was UFA?

Sorry. Couldn't help myself.

Lycett is a mediocre ruck and a terrible forward. I'd... take Jenkins

 

[Cap]

Get over it everyone.

Sloane is leaving at years end. I have no insider knowledge or anything however it is playing out exactly like all the others who left.

It’s the same Patrick Keane you thought wasn’t THE official league spokesman
