Cale Hooker

[Yeti]

Woah...."Foxfooty.com.au understands Hooker has been offered a five-year deal to depart Essendon for the Dockers for the 2017 season."

Foxfooty "understands"

So they have been reading BigFooty?

 

[Taylor]

5 year deal for a 28 year old (next year)?

He is younger than Ibbo, about the same age as Chris Mayne but the big one...

A year younger than Alex Silvani..

 

[go_the_dockers]

The hawks got Frawley for 450k-500k when it was reported he was offered much more.

Hopefully this is the same. If we are going to maintain a top 4 team, we need players playing for less.

 

[FUS_RO_DAH]

A year off, will be fresh as a daisy, proven quality KPD. 27 years old.
Literally, LITERALLY the perfect stop-gap until Alex Pearce comes on.

Let's be honest, if we can't land this one then we're forever doomed to never get any talls over.

McCarthy and Hooker would do me noicely thanks.

It's more than a stop-gap solution. Hooker/Pearce would be the best KPD combo in the competition.

dont all the bombers players become free agents at the end of the year because of their breach of contract...

Either way he at worst he is a RFA. Can't see the bombers matching it if he wants to go.

That's meant to be the case, but if that report is true then the AFL will make some weird exception to ensure Essendon get pick 2/3

The Dogs just drafted a pretty handy combo of KPD's too.

Could you imagine the meltdowns if we landed Hooker, McCarthy and Hogan over the next two years, on top of landing Bennell?

 

[scon]

I love imagining that shit!

Even a Hooker, McCarthy, Bennell trio is a pretty handy list of ins across 3 very important lines...

 

[meima]

I love imagining that shit!

Imagine- John Lennon
Imagine all this player
Play for freo club (oohoo)
You may say scon a dreamer
But his not the only one.

 

[masai]

Bombers board reporting he's been looking at houses in Cottesloe.

Been seen enquiring about :-

Schooling at Aquinas, Scotch, Hale etc.

Road conditions between Fremantle and Cockburn Central.

Bicton real estate

 

[Square Peg]

I wonder how long bushie can really keep this cheerful meima thing going? I though for sure he would have blown up by now. Giving great effort.

Also signed up at Royal Perth, too.

 

[DMan 11]

This year of Hooker speculation is gonna drive me bonkers.
Already face palming at the media dribble.
Ugghh

 

[Carnthedockers]

I remember one of our posters ran into him last year, and he indicated to them that he would be prepared to entertain a Freo move if they wanted him..
Sounds very legit to me

 

[Superkoops]

Also signed up at Royal Perth, too.

I just called them and Cale is on their wait list. The receptionist said some bloke called Mr Brendon Goddard pulled his name off the list.

I am trying to wake him up, then I will go back to my shell.

 

[wayToGo_]

Interesting if true - although they lost me at the end:

"He was rated elite by Champion Data for general defenders in disposals, uncontested possessions and marks in season 2016."

Apparently he was rated elite for this year (the future) when he isn't going to be playing AFL. Quality journalism when they can't even get the year right. How many other facts in this article are inaccurate I wonder?

 

[Freeeoo]

Good to see our boys being proactive if true.

Could the Receptionist tell you if a Mr Hogan has his name on the list ?.

Do you think he wishes that he didn't?

 

[Superkoops]

She told me he only pulled his name off in November. Maybe those BF rumours of him coming last trade period were closer than we thought.
