Like everyone in here, just had enough of the lack of info been detailed by the club and decided to do something about it .I think Nicks reaction to the no go for the Bowes trade tipped me over the edge .
I rang the club and asked about all the questions we need answers on. Here we go.
Bowes deal involves 2 million of salary cap,of which we are not prepared to pay as we have young mids in need of a pay rise.
It was reported 850k is owed to him from past contracts not paid.
‘Hunter Clarke has not requested a trade and we have not had any such conversation with him .
The lack of communication about players is nothing to see here and we do not comment on speculation through the media.
The much awaited report was tried to spin a positive but I said it’s too late.It should have been completed 2 weeks ago.
Anyway at least he took my call and in summary i believe we are sitting on our hands until the report is completed.

Great work on the info.
Would argue none of our young mids will have warranted a huge pay rise by the end of next year but appreciate the narrative

As in he took your call.

Which young mids are in need of a pay rise? 🤔

Owens and Windy have signed on but you'd hope that's on a pretty basic wage...

Bytel? Byrne's? Clark?

I find it strange that we wouldn't have had a conversation around Clark being traded, but we are allowing the media to run with the fact that it's likely going to happen.

I'm not sure what we'd get out of that.

Well done on calling them though

Will Brodie and 2 metre Peter couldn’t get a game at the Suns and now they’re doing very well at new clubs. Bowes could be the next.

If Gold Coast want to dump salary we should enquire about Ainsworth, he is Victorian and might want to come home, he is a real talent who has been disappointing thus far but could break out at a new club.
 
We are talking about trade week though

The Clarkson debacle is a different story

So you don't think that's totally impacted their trade week and completely blown it away and the fact they don't have coaches isn't further impacting them - that they're going pretty are they?

Hahaha, OK champ!
 
Although if they’re going to lose Rankine they probably don’t want to deal another small forward type. I’m sure we’ll ask the question.
I just hope the saints don’t go for the likes of sexton or fiorini.
 
Gold Coast can't be that stupid to give away Bowes and pick 7 for very little, more than likely they will wat Geelongs future first and future second for pick 7. It's a little to much for pick 7 as next years draft is meant to filled with very good talent. The narrative is all Geelongs way because Bowes hasn't nominated a club yet but hopefully the AFL don't sign off on a lopsided trade.
I hope so and I hope you're right

3 mids mentioned ,Windy,Owens and Nassiah
 
On the Bowes thread they mentioned that the Suns want a late first back. So you'd think we'd have to split 9 in order to get him. It would have been awkward.

That explains why we weren’t interested. Not sure many others will be either.

I’d laugh if Geelong said no and the Suns were forced to grovel for someone to take Bowes of their hands.

Bugger them. Let them take responsibility and deal with a blown salary cap.
