News 2019 Rumour File - discuss rumours here! (Part 2)

[Vader]

No, we didn't. Port got Woodcock at 76 - our pick before that was Scholl at 64. We didn't pass on any picks last year.

By definition we passed on our last 2 selections, given that we only had 38 players on our senior list this year.

 

[Mutineer]

Think we traded in a pick to get Sholl.

Yup

See draft guru

 

[Scorpus]

I wish I could get paid good money to spend 6 hours a day on radio talking out my ass, getting facts wrong, not really understanding what I'm talking about, and making shit up

 

[Elite Crow]

Think we traded in a pick to get Sholl.

Just looked it up, we gave pick 67 and 2019 fifth rounder for 64 to get Scholl

 

[Elite Crow]

Yup

See draft guru

Nope

Barrett thinks pick 15 is too much for Crouch. ****ing ******* that man.

 

[hey shorty]

Barrett thinks pick 15 is too much for Crouch. ******* ******* that man.

He doesn't watch football

 

[DangerSloane]

Nothing like a flog who thinks he can run with the same joke twice

You've been running with the same anti-Mackay agenda for 5 years.
I think my joke has a few more legs in it yet compared with that.

 

[ad victoriam]

aaa

Unfortunatly it wont be a quick rebuild

Richmond entered into a 10 year blue print to get where they are

Carlton have taken a while but look like doing the same, as much as people bagged SOS their team is taking shape

2 to 3 years isn't possible without some amazing currency to bring players in with and without trading out the crouches that isn't going to happen, look at the players leaving they are worth nothing of any substance

Face facts we will go through a minimum of 5 years pain to bounce back hard, 2-3 years if you just want to be competitive

Come back and talk to me and of 2020, but if we lose the Crouch brothers it almost granteed will not contend for 5 plus years if we are lucky.
And Richmond and Carlton did not start a rebuild with youthful strong core group the Crows have that.

 

[DangerSloane]

What irritates me about the afl is that a lot has been written about BKing and that he will definitely leave next year and not a work is said about him.
Luko though is all talk, he not going anywhere and not up for trade.

At this stage in both careers, King has shown more and looks the better prospect. Luko has shown talent as well but not as much.

This is Vic rhetoric as always

Not true.
Luko has shown a skill-set we're really yet to see in the AFL.

A truly top level kick in a key position size player.

 

[Scorpus]

Barrett thinks pick 15 is too much for Crouch. ******* ******* that man.

Not only does he not watch football, he's on an AFL trade show and he's clearly not looked up any past AFL trades to assess the 'going rate' for certain types of players

 

[Mutineer]

Just looked it up, we gave pick 67 and 2019 fifth rounder for 64 to get Scholl

Or he went to Carlton.

 

[DangerSloane]

Barrett thinks pick 15 is too much for Crouch. ******* ******* that man.

Wow.
What a dunce.
He's a better player than Dion Prestia.

 

[D Style]

Has anyone heard if we would be into Orazio Fantasia if available? I understand he has his love of the coaches etc at Port, but why wouldn't we be looking at him? Cap space and list space, and probably better draft picks to offer the Bombers to make it happen?

I'd be surprised if we weren't, it'll depend on what his contract demands are.

 

[Elite Crow]

Or he went to Carlton.

The question is whether we had a pick after 67 given Woodcock was picked in the 70s

 

[the universal]

He doesn't watch football

At this point I'm entirely convinced of this, he's only interested in the off field stuff.

 

[Elite Crow]

Given you posted one semi funny post in that time I’m not surprised you will try and milk it

 

[marvin]

Where are you finding that? If it’s on the draft results they don’t show passed picks

Got it from footywire.

I had assumed that because they listed passes for rookie picks that meant that they did the same for the main draft. Digging through a bit of twitter history shows we passed on 72.

So you were right, and I just learned something.

List management would indicate a small forward is not a great need if we're backing our guys in given we've brought in both Stengle and McAdam.

He said Pick 6 for Brad Hill earlier though. I've just had to unfollow Trade radio Twitter. They're either idiots or deliberately trying to shit stir.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

CROUCH NOT GOING CHEAP
The Suns have signalled their intentions of luring Brad Crouch to the club but what will they need to give up? Mitch Cleary thinks they'll have to pay overs and possibly give up their pick 15 this year and pick 11 next year, but Damian Barrett isn't sure Crouch is even worth one first-rounder, let alone two.

 

[1991firstgamer]

I got a rumour: David Mackay banged Elite Crow's partner and thats why they're so sour.

Inappropriate dude

[GROTTO]

Too much

I thought that initially but the 2020 1st rounder is the sweetener.

Think about this for a moment, we would have rebuilt the team with two Pick 1s and a Pick 2.

 

[FAITH]

I wouldnt trade pick 1 for Matt + Brad Crouch.
What makes people think we will get 1 and 2 for them?
