Recommitted Cameron Zurhaar [Re-signed to 2024]

[Elmer_Judd]

In other sports you can actually trade coaches. Doc Rivers was traded from Boston to LA Clippers for a first round pick. But that's sprinting and the AFL is still crawling when it comes to this stuff.

What club would be stupid enough to give up a prime draft pick/asset for a washed up scrub coach in Adam Simpson anyway ? Lol

American sports would trade every supporter in the arena for cardboard cut outs if it somehow made them a few extra $$$. The AFL aren't second rate because we don't value trading players mid seasons, or coaches for that matter which is utterly ridiculous.

On Zurhaar, I feel he quite a unique talent who could add something to most teams in the competition. I know for a fact that Hawthorn is missing that enforcer type, with Connor Nash our only real 'tackle to hurt' player. Gunston and Breust are nearing the end. Zurhaar isn't a like for like replacement, but wouldn't look out or place alongside Lewis, Kosi, Moore, Butler etc over the next decade.

The AFL half arse things and pander to the AFLPA. It's possible (however so unlikely that it may as well be impossible) that Luke Jackson (pick 3 2019) could walk to WC this year for nothing. There are rumours around Jason Horne-Francis wanting to leave North already. He's 18 and has played 10 games. We have free agency but publicising player salaries or allowing clubs to choose where players are traded are a big no no. Contracts don't really mean anything unless you are an underperforming player getting paid a lot of money in which case too bad so sad for the club.

I'd love to get Zurhaar if the price is right. 24 so suits our timeline OK. Plays with more intensity that all of our players too.

Unless you can somehow snag him in the PSD, Eagles have little chance of getting him

Seems like North or Freo to me.

 

[Mesc]

Would love him at Freo.

At least he's got 2 grand finals to his name and a premiership.

When's the last time you guys even played finals

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Would love him at Freo.

Was he a Freo supporter as a kid?

 

[ferball]

I don't think he wants to go back to WA. Dunno for sure but its just the impression I get. Maybe chuck in a cooking show as part of the deal and you might interest him.

Zurhaars' comfort food journey

 

[Psicosis]

Has recently bought a $2m house in St Kilda & changed his management group to Vic based. If he leaves, I don't think it's necessarily to WA.

 

[Mr MysteryGuest]

I'd pay our first for him and that could end up being pick 9-11

Would North take that?

Is there a realistic chance of him leaving? seems one of those players that loves the club?

massive overs

I heard he has enrolled his unborn children in WA a school as well.

Happy to pay overs for a gun forward that fits into our forward line

In Perth 2m might get you a sea container sitting on 2 blocks of wood...

The manager that got Zurhaar paid enough to afford a 2m house is stiff

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Is a contract being worked on, or has he put talks on hold?

 

[chopflop]

What's he worth? An early second? Maybe some late swaps to sweeten? Can see us kicking tyres for the right price provided he is not a goose

North Melbourne forward Cam Zurhaar puts contract talks on hold opening up shot for West Coast and Fremantle​

Would be super keen on him at freo. We need a medium tall forward

 

[Warhorse]

Given we've now resorted to playing Logue as a third tall, I really think we should be all over Zurhaar. Logue made a massive difference just being a mobile tall who can mark and pressure, he didnt even need to do anything else and it made us more dangerous.

Think he'd round our forwardline out perfectly and I'd be pretty comfortable handing over a pick around 20 to be honest

or play Sturt maybe?

Probably around there at the moment, but I reckon there would be some stiff competition for him. Potentially an outstanding player in the right environment.

 

[Elmer_Judd]

5 goals in the first half (against anyone) is the sign of a very talented player.

Hope he stays @ North.

 

[Bald]

Reckon my posts in this thread were way off the mark. Gun.

 

[freo_leo29]

Still can't see him going anywhere but happy to cough up for him if he did

 

[Libbaaaa]

The shitty tatts he just got have taken at least $50k off his per year price.

 

[freo1997]

Hoping Freo talks to him. Acres and a 2nd rounder. North need mature bodies, so can’t see any deal for him without including a ready made player.

At the end of the day Lobb is contracted. If he’s gonna keep whining about going to VIC that’s fine..but because he’s contracted he goes where we say imo if he wants us to complete a trade. If North were willing to add a little extra on top of Zurharr!! I would be fine with Zurharr plus a 3rd for Lobb.
