from what i heard at the footy yesterday its not going to matter anyway Greenvale have signed 3 former afl players including a ruckman
 
Not 100% there bricksta but i was having a beer with one of the doutta boys and and old chap from greenvale who handles all the contracts was saying that they have allready signed up 3 i would say Matty Robbins would be 1 not sure who the retired ruckman would be maybe Darcy?

he also said Rhys Bloomfield is certainly available but after hearing what his asking price is i think a few clubs would shy away

Well, you have to take your hat off to them, their recruiting Last/this year was nothing short of brilliant, the pickups from Coburg of Kuret, Jorgenson and Randello just to name a few, not just names but players to fill their deficiencies...they realised that their a 9 point better team than the mores, where they need to improve on this year and jumped on the momentum to bolster their stocks...very proffesional I would say!

Maybe Henneman??? Costly though.....
 
how much is Bloomfield asking and if they have got another runckman why would they pay him?

Can't give a number (don't know). But as previously stated it's apparently very high and have to agree with you that if they have Potter, Briggs and Henneman then Bloomfield at a high price may not be worth it..... Nice problems to have though.;)
 
i was absolutley astounded to hear some of the figures of what players are on good luck to them if they can get it i suppose
 
From what i heard he wont be going to Gv there is a couple of other clubs that will be talking to him but i doubt they will offer him the sort of coin he wants

Totally agree i certainly wouldnt be paying anywhere near that but in saying that there is a few clubs who need big men?
 
Seeing his last couple of performances in the Port Melbourne seconds there is no way he'd be worth anywhere near that. Looks overweight and his footy has gone backwards.

Fair point, given that VFL Ones players are rarely demanding that sort of money... The fact is he's tall strong and fairly athletic and local clubs just don't stumble over that type of player in the off season.......
 
Gazza,

Im really not too sure if you expect anyone to believe a word you are saying but i will bite.

Not sure who you had a beer with but i dare say it wasnt Bruce Kent, who is sitting in sunny Cairo, and handles 100% of the contracts. There is no other single person at greenvale that deals with them but him. And that includes Steve Macpherson!
 
Names are: joey, aaron, rick and jimmy with out these 4 those douttas boys, 4 big holes for douttas to fill. with out these 4, not even judd can help douttas in 2008!! im not dising douttas but this is real not fiction.

might as well close the doors at cooper st, fold em or merge with the two blues. come on boys all can be replaced and some for the cash forked out with that lot.

Q: have they got the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
A: no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
for them to work this out , they need to start looking at cleaning out the older players and work on the younger and new players...
joey isn't happy and keilor asking him to play for $550.00

hear that keilor are having a west coast (happy pills)happening there .is there any truth !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Has there been a more meteoric rise than Matthew Egan?
Premiership player at Oak Park 2002 and 2003, ALL AUSTRALIAN CHB 2007!

Only injury may prevent him from playing in an AFL premiership.
It is worth noting he did not come through the so-called normal (TAC) process, which gives hope to a lot of late developers.

You would like to think his success could be used by the EDFL to promote the competition.

Yeah joey will probably end up at keilor in 2008 lucky as l heard the same thing from a few keilor people. Has a brother that plays juniors there and his old man has a couple of mates as well, but has there ever been a more arrogant player than him??
And yes its true that west coast keilor had a few probs with the "lollies", but they have it under control now, l think:confused:. The club very quickly dealed with it as best they could and its not just keilor. Every club probably has an issue with it and l think its only going to get bigger in the future. l Know the EDFL has its concerns as we met three weeks ago for a drug seminar. Expect it to be raised in 2008

I take it you dont know him personally?
One of the better blokes you could meet..and highly liked at Douttas!
 
All you blokes that think Saad x 2 will be going to Greenvale next year obviously do not know the bloke. He put himself around last year and even had a crack at a rookie listing at the bombers. Ended up staying at Seymour because of the dollars. Don't think Greenvale will be able to afford him if the others that are rumoured to be going there are correct. Robbins (ex Footscray), Henneman (ex essendon), Fortunato Caruso (ex Coburg), Bloomfield (back from Pt. Melb.), and Zerafa (ex Marby park) and Saad x 2 at $1000 a game. I don't think so.
What then happens to the locals coming through at the club. Good luck to Strathmore and the others that think they have a snowballs hope in hell of competeing with them.
Could be the first club to go over the $250,000 mark.
If this is the case Hille will have to sell his business to keep in touch with them.
Believe Greenvale are also expecting the number 17 pick in the draft to help them out. Maybe even 3 picks in the top 50.
E.D.F.L. going into hyperdrive for 2008.

Old news, Greenvale paid $250K this season so they are headed for at least $350K with this lot aded unless they trim some existing highly paid players.
