2012 list management.

[CQSUN]

Wilkinson is another who as far as I know hasn't got a contract past 2012 at this stage, another possibility for a trade/delisting. Similarly Patrick, there were rumours that he did sign but still no official announcement from the club?? I would imagine he is one who would draw significant interest from a few other clubs.

 

[Sunny_]

It's hard to tell with us. Some players get renewed and we aren't told for how long. Bothersome really.

 

[SUNS]

Hickey still has not been signed. Perhaps a Collingwood or Carlton could be interested in him?

 

[Sunny_]

The contracts thread says he's good until end of 2013.

I think he was a rookie that was promoted on the standard 2 year deal at the end of last year?

 

[SUNS]

Might be a slight oversee somewhere. At the ladies lunch at Metricon he mentioned to the chickadees that he was out of contract at years end

 

[Sunny_]

Hmm. That's unfortunate.

Will be upset if we lose him. But if he wants to go, that's his choice I suppose. I have no doubt a contract would have been offered to him.

 

[SUNS]

Hard to say if he wants to go. I would have thought he was liking it up here. Will come down to the value the club believes they can get from him in a trade

I think we are about to find out that even fan favourites are not invincible from the trading block

 

[Sunny_]

Well, if Hickey goes you can bet your bottom dollar Gorringe won't be!

isnt he from up there.. brisbane to be exact

Yeah morningside he played for I think. By up here I mean as opposed to where he would be if he was traded to a Vic club.

 

[Sunny_]

Yeah, we picked him up as a zone selection. I just would be surprised to see us let him go, but if he still has yet to sign, who knows? :/

I guess we just have to have faith in Clayton and our trading. Thus far all of our trades (that's 100%!) have been a success. Pick #48 for Warnock was a huge steal.

 

[Scotty_222]

apparently Damien Barrett thinks collingwood are the darkhorse to get caddy.
what do you think the trade could be

 

[Sunny_]

You would think if this is true, they would be the third club involved in getting Tippett to GC.

 

[Sunny_]

Also open to swapping for Pendlebury.

 

[Scotty_222]

yeah apparently caddy to pies, brown to crows and tippett to us

 

[Sunny_]

I guess we can ignore that Damo is a numbskull for now.

Also, will be keeping an eye on Goldsack. Just to make sure that one game vs. the Eagles wasn't a fluke. But he could be an option. Still out of contract.

 

[manureid]

Is Jolly being delisted? What is his status as far as contract, out of it isnt he?

 

[Sunny_]

If he's not traded he'll be delisted. Out of contract this year.

Club seems to rate Wilko's tagging pretty highly, so good chance he will stay.

Is out of contract, but has told the club that he wants to go home. Port are keen on him, but upto the suns to decide if they will just let him walk, or trade him, maybe as part of the Tippett deal.

Clay Cameron smashing it at the combine. If he keeps this up, you would put money on him being selected by us as a zone selection. Would love him in GC colours!

Loved the sound of his enthusiasm towards the game after attending the GF. Genuinely in awe of our great game.

Interested to see how he goes, dont think wed get him though.

yeah i dont think we need another ruckman lol
would be awesome to watch him go at it
i think you will see more and more african americans coming over
to try it

 

[Big Red Machine]

I truly think that an ex-College or NFL tight end could crack the AFL as a gun forward. Soild frame, height, fairly quick, Getting Serperation, good hands, not being afraid of contact are all plusses. Kicking, handballing and Footy IQ are some of the draw backs but can be teachable. I think the Suns are just the team to give this a whirl. They taught Karmichael to football after all.
