I can see how this one came up.. He had a downish year and seems like he would have a fair bit of currency.

I doubt it's true but I think he is an easy target for a rumour like this.

The page that posted it hasn’t been outlandish and put any stories up that haven’t been shown to be accurate.

I’m not saying all these are trade but what he said about them were all true.

That killed the buzz mystery player

It was fun to think that there may be a mystery player.

TBPH I’d be completely ecstatic about landing Papley, Martin and Betts in one trade period.

Papley finished 4th in their BnF and was their leading goal kicker. Exactly what we need.

Martin was being touted as the next big thing in his draft year, imagine what he’ll achieve at a real football club.

Betts for a year or two is strategic and calculated. He WILL boost membership, I have no doubt in that.

I’m truly excited about landing those three, couldn’t give two ***ts about anyone else

You slot those three into the forward line and not only are we infinitely more dangerous when the ball hits the deck, we are 3-4 goals a game better imo.

Add Doc back in and we are a completely different side. I’ll probably tear up seeing he and Betts run out together.

I understand it’s human nature to want more but I think adding those 4 to the mix in 2020 is gargantuan.

Just my opinion

Thats because they dirty delete most of their stuff that isnt true

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

Maybe,
But OR and Royal Blue clearly think there is another player that we may land. Actually TCP him/herself alluded to it with a fishing rod. (Unless that meant we got Martin or Paps ...
So I'm still awaiting the unexpected. (shall do so quietly though mebbe as you are also expecting)

Kinda goes without saying that the club would be exploring all their trade options though, doesn’t it?

 

[Red_man2008]

Matt Rowell is a carlton fan (interview with Gary and Tim) and Eddie Betts is his favourite player. Surely we go after him now in 2 years time from the GC. score.

 

[ferrisb]

My genius iPad autocorrected my address when I placed two orders recently. I even went through the payment section on PayPal and the last step was to confirm the order. I decided to look through the details, otherwise I would have been screwed.

I mean, why autocorrect an address? Lol. I googled to see if there was such an address and yeah there is... in Denver.

I ducking hate autoconnect!

 

[RPCB]

Looking forward to moving on from the non existent mystery player yewwwwww

Now is Eddie back yet or what

I thought it was trolling when it was first posted and looks to be the case now.

Pretty much posted off the back of Gaff apparently wanting to return home to Victoria. Of course the “mystery player” would be a topic of discussion.

This is an interesting thought.

I wonder if the List Management team are thinking long-term about this in our current dealings for Jack Martin?

Do we look at slightly paying 'overs' for Jack to build a good trading relationship with GC down the track (i.e. when Rowell is OOC and looking to return home).

Im pretty confident that Silvagni and the team would judge every proposition on its merits, but some would argue that Rowell (or any GC recruit) eventually wanting to return home is a fait accompli and even then, pre-draft club allegiences mean very little when it comes down to business.

Yeah, I hear ya, but I guess I'm saying I have no doubt there is a mystery fish and that we are or were close to landing him at CFC. (Which came out of due diligence and as earlier disclosed, interest in our club shown by others.)
I'm a believer!

 

[Stamos]

Any legs on this one??

Please think before you post something stupid from markey-uppy facebook. It adds nothing of value to this thread.

 

[teknodeejay]

Eagles are overpaying, but they have got themselves in a position to be able to do so.

They will be fine, Kelly will be great for them.

not as much as Sydney are about to overpay for Daniher imo.

although I do think WCE are about to fall off a cliff with respect to the age of their squad and their best player. Two more years to capitalise imo, then they might wish they had more top end draft talent.

I hope Rowell plays 250 games for the Suns. Enough with them being a feeder club for everyone.

Where there is smoke there is usually fire: RE Fisher. Doesn’t mean he’s definitely gone, but it doesn’t surprise me in the least West Coast and Freo would be keen.

I don’t think we have seen anywhere near the best of Fish though, and putting any trade aside, I’d hate to lose such a clever player in our front half and I suspect he will go on to become an AA-caliber player one way or another.

Part of triumvirate of players who seem to get themselves in all sorts of “off-site” trouble - two of whom are untouchable - one of those two injured in a “basketball” incident, the other a far better on field captain than off field captain and should know better.

Not surprised we are countenancing his departure.

I think their flag(s) will keep them warm enough though. You gotta load up and go for it in your window.

As much as I think Gold Coast should be Tasmania, I agree with this post.
The articles of St Kilda going the big poach on King when it’s clear the new crop of Gold Coast players need to be protected in their system is just trash.
The AFL looked after Coniglio. They should be doing whatever it takes to lock away King, Luko and the bumper crop they pick this year until they hit free agency... or just admit defeat and relocate the club.

If the rumour re: Fisher is true, I'm asking for Liam Duggan

Just on the Kelly trade, I know it's different due to free agency, but the Tigers identified an elite target and paid a lot. He comes in and wins them a flag immediately. Youve gotta overpay for quality.

If they hit them! They weren’t too convincing when it mattered this year.

They are pretty well known deals in the industry though. He is very hit and miss. Last year he posted kelly to us as done deal for some ridiculous amounts. I’ll take it with a grain a salt for now

So your saying the players can't play a bit of basketball in the off season. If that's the case then they will come back after their break unfit. They are aloud to have a bit of fun, accidents happen

Didn’t say couldn’t play basketball, I said was injured playing “basketball”.

Lol Benno_900 made this up on our WhatsApp group as a troll and somehow found its way on here.

Fake news.

Duggan is average IMO. Just a neat player with nice skills, but a low ceiling. Career role player.

I’d be asking for Brander or Venables.
