Rumour Gaff at Geelong?

[Macpotata]

The hopped Jumper does suit Gaff. I can envision him playing at the Cattery but from all reports Melbourne seem to be the number 1 candidate for the Victorian born midfield guru. In all honesty, Melbourne look a team on the up and on the verge of becoming a heavyweight contender for years to come while we're already midfield loaded and hovering around finals extinction in season 2018.

With Tim Kelly almost certain to leave the Cattery at the end of the year, does Gaff have a realistic chance to come to Geelong or are Melbourne the lone candidate to claim the WCE champion on baller?

Is this actually a rumour or are you just thinking out loud?

Doubt Gaff will leave.

I thought this was the rumour and scandals board, not the thought of the day

Don’t ruled Carlton out is my inside mail.

Your inside mail is an idiot if he thinks that's happening.

 

[HTPunter]

Melbourne is just a far too logical choice.

Team of inside mids needing that final class and polish, although Gaff can win the ball himself when he needs too. Up and coming. I'd say WC without Gaff is going to be lesser than Melbourne with Gaff, so in terms of success likelihood it makes since. Melbourne should have cap room to give him a decent pay day, and they have the ability to get the deal done if it comes to a trade - they certainly can give up better than pick 16 if necessary (much like Danger to Geelong wasn't market value but it was better than a solitary first rounder if he left as a FA) - Eagles can stretch the value they get for his exit.

Ok, time will tell and we’ll see who the idiot is.
Never said it’s happening but it’s definitely been discussed

There's no reason for him to go to Carlton.

No, Gaff is.

I'd love to know what it is that prompts you to make some of these threads. For starters the general mail around Kelly is that he's got at least until the end of next season (you know, when his contract runs out) and as recently as this week it was suggested that Scott knows a bit about his future plans courtesy of his 'Tim has a heap of good footy in him for the Cats' comment that attracted some attention.

You mean you didn't realise this was the Scandals, Rumours and Showerthoughts board.

Dew was saying that about Lynch not so long ago.

$$$$$$$$$$

EDIT: Apparently the source also said Betts is going back to Carlton. Play on.

Lynch was also a free agent

 

[FastLane]

why would he go to team that is likely not to be in finals for the next few years??

It's rumoured to be West Coast mate, not Freo.

[StillAtLarge]

Gary Ablett was contracted to the suns as well, didn’t stop him from getting to geelong...

Being contracted doesn’t mean that much these days.

For Gaff, he could end up anywhere atm. If he doesn’t sign by finals time I think he’s gone though.

Why not, you and Carlton won’t be playing finals this year so what’s the difference

Nice rumour bra

Gold Coast also knew they could get nothing more out of him. Even if he stayed and got on the paddock, being carried by a 34 year old wouldn't advance their cause at all so they stood to gain nothing keeping him.
While we aren't a title threat, we're still in the finals mix so you'd think we've got a lot more reason to at least say 'you can go home in a year, just give us one season of your best and you can go with our best wishes.'
