WC would have picked him if they didn't pick Allen instead.... you had your chance, you waited.

Important for the future years trades too. You often hear: "Stephen Wells is pretty upfront and straight with you" (usually when we're being accomodating!) so now they know when he says something at the other end of the scale he means it too.

Barrett actually said he doesn't know what the offer is, he was just assuming it was more than what was previously offered.

Freo official said they "won't die wondering"

Kelly will say no to Freo. He'd prefer the Cats.

It's that he was told ahead of time he couldn't do it but did it anyway that's the issue. Ordinary. And stupid, did he think they wouldn't find out?

:poo: deal/management

Can we get through the first page without mentioning the G word? :D

I think when people move their whole lives interstate or overseas they should steel themselves that they very well could be unhappy and find it hard for a period of time. You can't recreate a whole support system, social circle, sense of ease and belonging straight away. It takes time and you...

As for Geelong's tough words.... every club talks this way before doing trades that never quite satisfy both sets of supporter bases, so prepare a little.... I know he's contracted but that's the new normal.

Freo have to spend big (picks) to get Hogan and Lobb. They aren't going to have enough left over to spend on a player who doesn't want to go there and who has a manager that publicly insulted them.

Top 10 or in the 20's. Don't want the cursed teens.... Brown, Menzel, Smedts, Lang, Thurlow....

Gold Coast were interested in GHS end of 2016. Gold Coast rejected his offer to go there end of 2017 as part the Ablett deal. Gold Coast are interested in GHS end of 2018.

Apologies for not reading the thread but only have about two minutes. What would have to happen for us to miss finals?

Those comments by Scott about Menzel are ridiculous. Implying he'd be lucky to get a one year deal. He keeps up his form he'll get offered more than that by someone else. Geelong should shut up publicly about Dan. If he keeps kicking goals and not doing his knee we will want to keep him and...

I thought only 18 year olds were required to have a minimum two year contract once drafted. Mature aged players (eg 23 year old Tim Kelly) could be only given a one year deal. His managers comments about playing the year out and then seeing, makes me wonder.

Trying to imagine Mackie, Lonergan, Henderson and Taylor all being out at once last year....

Remember how much he used to fawn over Carey?

Gotta be Crameri's fault....

I would imagine the recruiters are looking at players years in advance, so perhaps wouldn't need a tip a month out from the draft though?

Interesting that they committed in public to Hayball, rather than the way they left options open with Ruggles... You'd think they'd want flexibility.

I thought Mark O'Connor was gone?

Luff from Champion Data was asked who the big winners were from the draft, and he said Geelong.

Fox Footy Rankings had our guys: Fogarty 11 Kelly 20 Constable 14 Miers 22

Loved that little green "Bargain Buy" sign that popped up against our picks, followed by highlights packages.

Hey, I've actually heard of all 3 of our picks!

O'Brien to Carlton

Will all eyes be on Pick 19 for Cats supporters? ;)

Now it gets interesting...
