hickey was qld zoned in 2011, so as with the other draftees it's a standard 2 year deal i'm pretty sure?

Hickey was given a 3 year deal as a young local ruck and Magin wasnt given a 2 year contract given he was only a promoted rookie. He's off contract, dont worry about that.
Yep your right sunny, just 1 thing though, Toy didn't go through the draft, he was with jolly, seller & co.
Toy, an AFL AIS program graduate, is one of 12 eligible 17-year-olds born between January and April 1992 who are able to sign with GCFC[\quote]

I'm not concerned. I'd definitely like to keep them both & I expect they'll sign. I doubt any club would offer them a better deal.Guys, I know that we haven't signed Stanley or Iles yet and both are out of contract in 8 weeks efectivly. Does anyone else see this as a concern? Surely we need to lock these two in for another two years at least?
You know something we dont?At the beginning of the year that's all he would have been worth, really. The rate which he's come on would have surprised the Coaches and supporters alike.
Will get 2 years. Shows that we're obviously keen to keep him on. Very confident something will be worked out.
hope soYou know something we dont?
So what is the go with Dixon? Is he any closer to re-signing? Last I heard he was very close to signing.

Depends on who you ask, Matchu. Where did you hear your info from?
I had a quick little fangirl chat with Charlie at one of the recovery sessions (granted, 4 weeks+ ago now), and he seemed to imply that he was going to re-sign and loved it at the Suns.
However, one of our other users, SUNS, who is pretty good usually with info like this, suggests that he's a 50/50 prospect at this stage. The club just isn't offering what he wants. He loves it at the club, but the offer isn't right. He was offered a 1 year extension at the start of this year but knocked it back. He's since come roaring home, and firmed from a fringe player to one of our top 12 players. I'm not even sure the club expected him to come on as strongly as he has, which could lead to some spanners in the works regarding planning of how all the contracts/money with players sits.
Wait and see I suppose.

Most of my info comes from two close knit groups of players at the club and also a few people I know on the inner sanctum. So most of the time it's ok info, but sometimes it is no more then educated guesses from some of the boys.
In Dicko's case, I find it interesting, because I spoke to him face to face, also at the recovery session (after GWS game) to get the info I have previously said lol.
But from what i'm getting through the grapevine just this morning we could have some happy news to wake up to in coming days![]()
I guess the situation changed then? Since the GWS game is far more recent than when I chatted. Though I may have gotten lost on his huge shoulders. Recovery sessions are always good for a perv. Really nice break from flying back and forth to the States too.
SUNS, as your Moderator, and thus God, Lord and Saviour, I demand that you PM me this word through the grapevine! I don't even care if it's false. I just need some good news!Is It Dixon related? Or something else?
I can not and will not do it, blah blah blah,![]()
Was told the other day between 10 and 14 players to go and there are some surprises amongst them (whatever that means) !! LOL I think everyone has a friend of a friend in the know. I suppose time will tell..
