Broughton

[Kickett Punches Read]

Everyone seems more certain on Greg being gone... Is there some info in missing? Nothing on the afl website

 

[rgauci]

Gold Coast have heaps of WA talent, O'Meara, Martin, Bennell, Swallow, Matera, can't see any of those 5 being on the table unless something has gone drastically wrong.

Interestingly they also have Bock who suits our window far better than theirs. Reckon Bock would look good lining up as a forward next to Pav.

Also potentially a 3 club trade involved given Toy wants to leave. Or simply it could be draft picks, or even simpler, the trade rumour is bullshit.

Broughton is a bad loss, man, this bloke was a solid solid defender who got thrown in the midfield and then got shit outta luck, bad move by the management, very bad move.

we can cover him and he's one of the few dudes who could be surplus and still command something decent that will enable us to plug up discrepancies in the list.

Agreed yep, i'll sit back and wait. but yeh, was one of my favourites.

 

[malpaso]

Please tell me we aren't getting Josh Toy...

 

[BananaOnTheRun]

Broughton and pick 40 in exchange for 13 from Gold Coast?

If the net result going into the draft with 13, 17, 60 etc. I would take that any day with the added bonus of Broughts going to a side that is having a tilt at the flag at the moment.

Greg loves the sand and surf, at least we would be doing our duty of care!

other than leaving the club, he'd be in a good place. well-resourced club, will be able to help with the kids, surf, be in the company of heaps of tanned, nubile, pneumatic chicks, be closer to his rellos. dude's sitting pretty.

 

[jedi mind tricks]

He is a really solid player and hope we get something decent otherwise this will be a waste of a trade. The player/draft pick better be decent.

mine too. honest and quietly went about his business being awesome.

Bocks 29, 30 next yr, barely in our window and didnt he break a leg too this year??

 

[WrongUn]

Suns #13 for Broughton & Freo #17? + the usual swapping of later picks? Maybe a QLD zone pick may have been bundled?

 

[apuchar]

Karl who broke the news on 6pr last night, has suggested that the deal has been done.

 

[Mesc]

Goddam, I'd love to see O'meara come to Freo.

 

[BananaOnTheRun]

yeah, broke his leg kicking matty deboer in the midriff. silly man.

What deal nothing has been reported

Langdon stated Broughts was in for medical today. Paperwork all that is left to file. Whatever has been tabled has been accepted - we'll know tomorrow.

Broughton worth a whole lot more than a 4 pick upgrade. Hardly worth it.

This sounds the most likely option to me. I'd be surprised if we got pick 13, and upset if we got pick 37. I like the sound of Toy being looked at by the Bulldogs. Maybe for pick 22?

This is the word on the street KPR that is all. I am passing on info from our local media. Don't take it to heart until it is confirmed.

Ah ok. Well I would hope we get a whole new draft pick not just an upgrade

Ah ok cheers

 

[juzzo]

Aaaand Karl Langdon is a moron. But I guess we knew that.

 

[Kaney321]

Would be devestated even with pick 13. Rediculously underrated player, easily in our top ten players, better midfielder then Barlow, better defender then anyone in our side around his size. The only thin that doesn't make me extremely upset if he does go is the whole surplus and lyons team defense doesn't rely as much on the individual. Better get something friggen decent if he does go

 

[Aussiblood]

Yeah in the wash it'll end up being GWS that does the deal

 

[juzzo]

Was more referring to the fact that he said Broughton was worth pick 37 and had no idea who the upcoming WA draftees were.

Yes he is underrated, and probably in our top 10, but there is no way you could say no to pick 13.
And he isn't a better midfielder than Barlow
