2017 Trade and FA thread

From the 'Scandals & Rumours' board.

'Hi,
New Poster. But have a legit scoop.

Can someone add this to the "Scandals and Rumours" thread. I am a long time reader of it.

Luke Hodge is going to Brisbane Lions today, source is a sponsor.

Thanks, I will post more soon.'


Yeah, yeah I know why would we believe such a rumour but after hearing Hodge's manager the other day and then the odd rumour about Hodge coming here I don't think it's out of the realms of possibility given his relationship with Fages.

Whether that's in a playing or coaching capacity as his manager said is yet to be seen I guess.

What did his manager say?

All for Hodge coming to Brisbane whether it's playing for a year then coaching or as an assistant coach. The more individuals we can get to the club that have won flags the better.

I'm not sure about this unauthorised use of my catchphrase.

Every time there is a rumour on here I can't help but feel this scene from Game of Thrones is being played out.

Certainly not ruling anything out...

 

[SizeMatters]

Luke Hodge would be huge as an assistant coach. Do we have space for him in our department or can we even afford him?

 

[jackess]

I was wondering the other day if Nick Riewoldt would like a return to Queensland to work with our forwards.

 

[Saucery]

When's the trade period?

It's basically 365 days a year if you are discrete about it.

Are any of his family still here?

 

[Not a Psycho]

Does anyone know the ruling around re-signing one of our own DFAs? For example, if we felt we needed another pick to cover any possible bid for Ballenden could we delist C Beams and re-sign him after the draft?

Delisting a player but then re-drafting them as a rookie is pretty common.

I meant bypassing the draft completely and re-signing the player as a delisted free agent.

Can't do that, has to be a redraft.

 

[Not a Psycho]

Well if he does come to the GC he can catch up with the remaining family and when they move the GC licence to Hobart he can catch up with his relatives from Sandy Bay fc.

 

[Comeback Lions]

Savage and Lonie both resigned with St Kilda. Is there anyone we've been linked with still uncontracted? These early trade rumours are a waste of time... endless, pointless speculation. Might just tune out until the last 2 hours of trade week and then find out what's happened.

 

[Devz15]

Braydon Preuss is at the top of my Wishlist for the upcoming trade period. He fits the age of our list perfectly and is behind Goldstein in the pecking order at the Roos.

Only if Stef goes I would think.

Otherwise , wouldn't another ruckman be superfluous to requirements?

 

[iBeng]

Swans have delisted:

Brandon Jack, Michael Talia and Tyrone Leonardis.

Talia worth a sniff as a defender? Although hes listed as 1.94 and 94kg, only 24 years old...thought he showed a little bit at the Dogs at least, although obviously has been dodgy off-field.

If only it were so.

Give it 3 yrs

Has there ever been a player, win a premiership one week and request a trade to the wooden spooners the next?????
Or will Charlie Cameron (possibly) be the first?
He was very good tonight, hopefully puting on one last performance for the home Adelaide crowd.

Des Headland moving to Freo in 03 wouldn't have been far off.

Are we the only suitor or is GC a chance if they can offer Adelaide or Cameron better stuff?
