Docherty in the middle does make sense. I think he said he wants to play there as well.

I disagree

He's the best back flank in the comp

I don't think he's that good in the midfield, and even with more development there won't be elite.

He needs to remain the general behind the play.

 

[HBF]

Yay! Welcome home Teague!!!

Would be pretty happy to get him to the club.
One of the better assistant coaches out there.

Spot on......

Cripps, Rocky, Kennedy, Smith etc dishing off to Docher's, running off Half Back..

Cant wait to see that.

 

[Juddrockz]

Reasonably good mail: Rockliff flew to port singularly to get cfc to match offer. They have. He will be in blue next year. Announcement on Friday.

Thanks for the info.
How confident are you on this?
Port supporters still think they have Rocky over the line.
Bring on Thursday!

 

[HBF]

Not the Murphy crap again..... Building a new house, Baby on the way. Why go interstate? None of it makes sense.

I don't get it either.

 

[reubsblues]

If Rockliff does choose us and gibbs does want to stay how do we get Kennedy Smith and Saad we may be forced to bring pick 3 into calculations

Very very confident

I'd want to see him play at least a full game in midfield before saying he couldn't be elite.

 

[Sharks On A Plane]

Very very confident

Strong username to Rockliff wining and dining party correlation.

 

[Juddrockz]

Very very confident

Cheers!

Imo if we are getting Rockjy, Gibbs is goneski..

 

[F_therest]

Kornes saying that Port doesn't seem very confident of getting Rockliff. He thinks he'll be at Carlton.

I know he's a flog who barely get's anything right but you'd think he'd be reasonably accurate with Port info...and he'd hate to say bad news for Port so doubt he's making it up.

 

[BuxbaumBixby]

Hope I'm proven wrong but not confident that Rocky is going to pick us. He'd be such a handy offsider for Cripps, and even possibly extends Cripps' career by a couple of years by taking some of the load (and we'd get 20 goals out of Cripps resting in the goal-square).

The Kernahan/Judd manoeuvre seems like a last ditch effort for mine - and the words McKay chose yesterday make me think we're not that confident on getting him.

It's a really interesting fit for Rocky with us - I reckon Lions leadership have targeted our introverted leader/s pretty savagely every game we've played against them the last few years (which has worked the majority of the time).

While I think it was Hanley that publicly denigrated the 'go home five' - can't help but wonder what the Rocky/Doc relationship would be like too.

 

[bluekidjoe]

Kane Cornes (FLOG) on AFL TRADE RADIO SAYING HE THINKS ROCKLIFF WILL CHOOSE CARLTON OVER PORT AND ROCKLIFF TO GIVE A DECISION BY THURSDAY

Reckon I'm the only person who enjoy's Kane's controversy. Good news.

 

[Canyouhearthedrums]

Saints are into Gaff. Not one we should be interested in but WC may be heading for a reset. Could change the landscape a bit?

 

[james Dean]

We would have to trade pick 3

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

Would have no problem going for Ah chee

I wonder if his nickname's Jughead?

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

Jesus you guys, I'll never paraphrase a Star Wars quote ever again

*waves hand*
This is not the reaction you're looking for.

 

[Omega Blue]

I think wce are seeking to sell high with gaff, was the best wingmen in the comp last season, but he had Priddis and Mitchell doing the inside work, without those two getting the hard ball he could find himself exposed. Not to mention he's a free agent next year.

It seems that Judd and Kernahan were there on our initial meeting with him, so doesn't seem last ditch, was probably planned all along

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

I had a peppermint magnum today, it hit 'ultimate' on the deliciosity scale.

I'm having trouble even saying that in my head!



I like it though

 

[BuxbaumBixby]

Didn't he meet with Silvagni and have a medical last week? .... then he went over to Port (rumour was that he was staying at Boak's place) .... then after that we got Judd/Kernahan in front of him this week?

Gaff is a gun...every team has inside players to do the grunt work.
Mitchell was only there this year.

West Coast look like they'll be in for quite a few lean years if they lose Gaff...their midfield is already shallow.
Their kids haven't quite come on as hoped like Duggan and Sheed. They're ok but not great.
