[Saintly Viewed]

Target 1: A Treloar

But even surpassing these two is The Dangerman
Then i'll have kittens (think about the play on words kittens / cats)

 

[CFC2010]

Why would he make it up?

Hey boxy99 when Scharanberg signs I want the first tweet & the sauce please!

 

[CFC2010]

Just had a look at the Brisbane board and they seem to think that Eddie has it in for them and will be doing everything he can to get even with Brisbane for poaching Beams last season. Well I'll be f......ed, I thought Aish wanted to leave last season but was told that there would be no deal for him. Well one year later, Yes Collingwood are knocking but its not personal its just business. We wanted Aish last season and nothing has changed. This time around he is uncontracted and he holds the cards.

Told TBdog this last week that Eddie is the root of all their evil.........didn't go down to well!

 

[Matt_352]

After Treloar and Aish we need a Tall-Medium Fwd, Crumbing FWD, Running Backman and a replacement for Witts if he goes. Must Re-Sign Shaz and Freeman.

It's been a long day without you TradeDraft
And I'll tell you all about it when you post again

Speaking of which, he was all over the Drafts board last year, he even came onto our board with Beams in his avatar, couldn't get enough of the trade talk. These days, I sometimes I tag him, I want to discuss trade talk, but he's, he's invisible, he's not to be seen. It's like, you wait for TBD to talk footy, but all you get is tumbleweed flying outside the local saloon.

Grundy tick, Marsh and Langdon both late picks, tick. Maynard tick, Moore and De Goey, tick tick. They don't all make it champ. Scharenberg is a tick at the moment as well, not sure what else you want.

Too early to give ticks to all that lot. Marsh is hamstrung. Pardon the pun. Might struggle to play 100 games. See Reid and Freeman.
Moore picks himself (father son) well don't think Hine had any other choice or we would go in to melt down.
Maynard well he seemed to look ok a long way to go.
DeGoey yes good pick up but so you should pick good players in the first few picks.
Overall Hine has failed on the rookie draft front for over 5 years. Guys like Farmer Ugle Freeman Kennedy have been busts.

What afl team do you really support ?

 

[Vicky Park]

Not looking forward to this week, or even today, when delistings are announced. A horrible time of year.

I know its ridiculous, and it has to happen. But when you invest hope, expectation, affection, all those things in guys - mainly because they have donned a black and white jumper - it hurts to see them let go.

 

[Boris the Contradiction]

Thomas, Keefe, Young, Armstrong, (Dwyer?), (Gault?), (Karnezis?).

I'd say the last two are tradeable so will be traded, at least for now. Karnezis probably has the most to offer and is the most likely to be retained if a suitable trade doesn't materialise. Who do others think are on the chopping block?

 

[si tacuisses]

What afl do you really support ?

TG supports the universal brotherhood of trolls, a commitment beyond race, creed, club, or nation.

I agree with you RE: giving him contract length he wants. BUT if he cracks it, sooks up and refuses to sign anything, would you take pick 23-25 for him? We won't be getting pick 5-7 for him

He told the club he wants to stay but obviously needs security.

Club should give him the 2 years, ffs they had Gault on the list for 4...

 

[loki04]

Freeman's manager was saying something about how players don't have 10 year hamstrings.

So far Freeman's had a 2 year hamstring and with his main attribute apparently being his pace, I'm a little wary.

What is the Saints offer?

Somewhere between Sweet FA and nothing.

 

[Pendles!]

Reading between the lines they're obviously not confident in his ability to come back from these hamstrings. Has he been as committed to rehab as he maybe should have been? I'd be giving him two years but it seems like the club aren't confident.

Think there is also a monitory difference as well as length. we are only guessing so who really knows it may well be we have offered 2 years and he wants 3 due to saints offer??

I would say from everything we saw and heard of Freeman over pre-season the kid would of done his due diligence on getting right.

Kid is from all reports a fitness freak. Can't see him not committing 100% to his rehab.

 

[surfer1]

Ah yes, Coogee, the spiritual heartland of Greater Western Sydney

Just need to get across Anzac. parade no probs

 

[sloth6]

Sure I read somewhere that we'd sent Gault in for hip surgery too - surely that would mean he stays in some capacity?

 

[Linda_Lovelace]

Tall medium forwrd = Hoew

Running half back = Hampton

The rest now idea.

 

[Apex36]

Not neccessarily. The kid injured himself playing for our club, the least we can do is pay for his required surgery. Doesn't mean we'll retain him on the list.

 

[gtrain23]

Very slow news morning.
Gonna be a long day i take it.

"young forward Corey Gault underwent a hip and adductor release procedure" http://www.collingwoodfc.com.au/news/2015-09-10/magpies-stars-to-go-under-the-knife-2015

I think this would just be standard care for players injured whilst they are on our list (like workcover) so would have no bearing on whether he stays or goes.

Given he has had 2 years on rookie list and I think it's a maximum of 3 I think he's a reasonable chance of being kept for another year - especially if it's a shallow draft year. Whether Keeffe & Thomas are rookie listed this year or next (and whether anyone beats us to the punch) could impact the club's decision on Gault.

Think of the positives VP, at least this year you've already got a heads up on 2 delistings (Keeffe & Thomas) so impact will be reduced.

 

[PicaBoo]

Gonna be a long day i take it.

Not as long for the Richmond supporters.

 

[unplugged]

You'd think Keeffe and Thomas will be the ones done straight away.

And Clinton Young. He bought a house in Gisborne. Pretty sure you don't buy a house in Gisborne if you're still going to play AFL or VFL...
