[eth-dog]

GC open to offers on Elijah Hollands. Any interest for us?

Yes please. 189 inside leaning mid? Oof

 

[ghostdog]

This is what always happens.

What I don't understand is how another 18 year old makes a basket case less of a basket case.

It starts to grease the wheels for when North are relocated. Gun player from Tassie brings his team home to be the home team.

I certainly hope so

[TurnOnTheBrightLights]

Yes please. 189 inside leaning mid? Oof

I remember desperately wanting him to be there at our first pick. If Dimma swoops in it could compel him to stay however. The wraps on him were huge

This came from Jon ralph yeh?

 

[andleanback]

Yes please. 189 inside leaning mid? Oof

Gold coast have wasted 2 years, playing him on a wing.

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Whats the value on Hollands?

2 second rounders enough?

Future first and second plus this years 2nd enough for Hollands and their first?

Take Curtin, Watson and Hollands? Balances the list nicely.

Depends what they’re after. I’d say a late first round pick would do it. But doubt they’d want a first round pick for him this year due to their academy picks. Plus he’s in contract as well.

The only time it’s really been mentioned is a throw away line from Ralph. I doubt they’ll be ready to move him out the door when he’s only 21.

 

[Schnitzengruben]

Jon Ralph usually has good oil right eth-dog ?

 

[ghostdog]

Gold coast have wasted 2 years, playing him on a wing.

He'd be in familiar territory then.

 

[ghostdog]

Future first and second plus this years 2nd enough for Hollands and their first?

Take Curtin, Watson and Hollands? Balances the list nicely.

If we take Watson, what are we doing with Menzie, Davey, Davey, Tex, Guelfi? I presume you'd delist Snelling? The others?

Edited because Guelfi is contracted until 24.

 

[andleanback]

If we take Watson, what are we doing with Menzie, Davey, Davey, Tex? I presume you'd delist Snelling and or Guelfi?

Guelfi in contract until 2024

 

[ghostdog]

Guelfi in contract until 2024

I'll edit accordingly.

 

[ghostdog]

Duursma issues with syndesmosis or something?

 

[eth-dog]

This came from Jon ralph yeh?

Oh damn.

Gold coast have wasted 2 years, playing him on a wing.

Yep. Inside mid through and through

Whats the value on Hollands?

2 second rounders enough?

Future first and second plus this years 2nd enough for Hollands and their first?

Take Curtin, Watson and Hollands? Balances the list nicely.

Probably need to sacrifice our F1. Plus we can't trade both our F1 and F2 without replacing one.

Also Curtin seems a monty to go top 3.

Jon Ralph usually has good oil right eth-dog ?

Snake oil I believe

We'd need to find an F2 or ask AFL to tick off the deal
Doable though I reckon. I haven't really seen him since he's come in but we'd need him to pick up another role
I.e inside mid/wing. Or a HF/inside mid
Otherwise he's fighting for tog with setterfield

 

[citizen-erased]

I think North get Sanders and pick 20 for mckay

Or pick 3 for Mckay and no Sanders

Make them a deal
They can pick which, but no whinging when they're relegated to VFL so tas can come in with even numbers and an established list

 

[Keystone agony]

Adrian will be all over the paying up for Mckay for Band 1 if we get something in return. We will scratch theres if they scrarch ours deal

 

[citizen-erased]

Give us pick 3 and we'll trade them mckay back

 

[Milanista28]

Hope we are aggressive in trying to get another top pick in, the Suns pick looks juicy.

 

[Keystone agony]

No doubt we will consider that not to be the case if we arent the chosen ones and that will be heaped on Adrian

 

[Snake Charmer]

[FlyingV]

Yes, yes, yes to Hollands. He and Martin on the wings with Durham as depth/playing Heppells role would be sick.

 

[eth-dog]

Hollands doesn't want to play wing and isn't good at it either. He's an inside mid.
