Re: 'Alleged' rumours resurfacing ...



Folks, this is the way things are here.

Posters are responsible for what they post. Moderators can not attest to the accuracy or otherwise of any rumour posted.

Moderators will intervene for a couple of reasons.

1. If a thread is threatening to be derailed because of a post.

2. If invested parties request the removal of material.

None of this draws a conclusion as to the accuracy or otherwise of the original post.

There is no need to further speculate. What will be will be.



Also, you need to remember that this thread like all parts of this forum is bound by the rules of poster conduct. If you want to express skepticism towards a rumour that's fine, but having a crack at posters who are contributors to this forum is simply not on and will be acted upon.

Simply put, don't be a dick.

Thanks all!
 
I can’t see us doing a deal where it just leaves us with Florent and the picks. I think Austin and co. are working to get the best outcome possible and Syd know that, and are working as hard to meet the need. It seems to be consistent from any ITK info. Twomey saying Cats still don’t count them out… I can’t see it, they don’t have the currency and are stubborn as

Interestingly there are no leaks coming from Carlton or Sydney, only a couple from managers of Sydney players who are potentially on the trade block. We finally appear to be conducting ourselves professionally with Wright and Davies in charge.
Also means things are serious so noone wants to derail any potential deal
 
I don't even want Florent as part of a package with another player, let alone as the only player.

Sydney about to blow up their entire playing list.... hilarious.


Florent, who is originally from Melbourne, can’t say for sure what other options he had on the table because he was so set on remaining at the Swans that he didn’t even ask his manager who else was interested.

He does know he could have earned more money by leaving but with the Swans staring through a wide-open premiership window, he never seriously entertained the thought.

The club has said publicly we want players, not picks. Highly doubt we would settle for a couple of picks and Florent
I could say it a million times over. Tell me exactly where the club has publicly said we want players. The only public line has ever been that Charlie is not for trade.

Now obviously, the behind closed doors is different. But not once has the club publicly said we want players.

How are you lot not going insane reading this incessant drivel. 4 weeks of discussion on Charlie trade value repeated, rehashed, reworded, revised. 🤦 do y'all think you're the list manger? 😂😂

Love to do a word used search on Charlie, florent & hayward
It's still preferable to real work which is even more painful atm
 
From where I sit right now, the worst-case scenario in terms of the offer from Sydney looks like Pick 11, F1, Hayward, and Florent.

However, I’m more interested in what our plans are for Picks 10 and 11, especially with the Harry Dean and Jack Ison implications in play.

I can’t see us heading to the draft holding both of those picks and I’d expect one of the following to happen:
  • Trade up to secure a pick before likely bid territory (unlikely)
  • Trade out for future capital in 2026 (likely)
  • Trade for a mature player to help sell the Charlie deal to the members and media etc (very likely).
What sort of operation is GW running here if our own GM is having to read through the tea leaves?

These photo makes a lot more sense now...
