Rumour GFC 2021 Player Trading, Drafting FA, Rumours and Wish lists... Part II

[Drunkcat]

I'd rather Norman Gunstan.

Is he still alive

 

[Grimoz]

Is he still alive

He's only 72, we could play him on the ball i reckon!!

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

Is he still alive

I know he's a band-aid solution but it could work.

 

[iameviljez]

Have we got Ceglar and Gunstan yet?

I hear Burgoyne is free. And Michael Tuck wasn’t too thrilled about being let go

 

[rocker_oz33]

Not bad use of media .

Boomer still in good nic

 

[Boxhead_31]

It's called Shaun Higgins Syndrome

I thought that was the cure for the condition

 

[iameviljez]

Boomer still in good nic

Necromancers currently working on Reg Hickey

 

[catman2006]

Would maibaum be worth having at look at, only issue could be a bit short at 194cm

 

[Larry Donohue]

We could have Higgins on one flank and Zaharakis on the other with Gunstan in the pocket

While on the syndrome circuit
2022 team invite hendo back and now Scarlo has taken the year off

Tuohy Scarlett A. Bews
Stewart Gunston Henderson
Zaharakis Menegola Smith
Dangerfield Cameron Rohan
Lonie Hawkins J. Thomas
Ceglar Selwood Guthrie
I/C Anyone under 30

Gives huge interchange flexibility

I like it i think you could go put your house on that side for the flag

 

[Drunkcat]

Just reading on AFL board Hawthorn are having a clearance sale anyone over 26 is up for sale

 

[And_ROOS]

Rohan's an interesting case for me, as much as hes inconsistent can we really afford to lose 30 goals out of our forward line right now?

Simple solution, play him all season, drop him for finals

No Betts? What do you think we signed him for, to coach?

Wow.
fast way to wreck the club

 

[Cat Addict]

I wonder if that type of deal happens in draft.

Would have to happen early you would recon a bid for Darcy happens at pick 3. -> 23 would be gone as part of the match.

 

[PeasFC]

I have just got the old player bug now i see a cheap old player and get excited

hahaha I was about to say...
"have i been conditioned by geelong because i was driving to work this morning thinking f*** it lets get mitchell and wingard and go again."

 

[Turbocat]

I tend 2 agree.
The way it stands 30 32 & 34 turn into 28 30 & 32 with 41 dropping back to 38 account another Pies pick going..
Dogs(23) & Pies(27) picks are erased for comp picks.
Even going into the draft with 19(22?), 28, 30, 32, 39 is not a bad hand.
I suspect 32-39 might be used to creep up (Dogs 23?) if we only need 4 picks.
But FWIW i'd rather get a little bolder and target Brisbane's 14 or 18 picks with 32 with next years 2nd rounder going their way.
They have 2 father sons on their radar with Ashcroft's son looking like a 15-20 pick and Adrian Fletcher's son a top 30-40 prospect.
If we are going to rebuild/rejig/refurbish or whatever you want to call it, grabbing 4 players from 14-28 or 18-28 range in 2021 will be a great start.
Nothing like having picks 14/or18, 19, 28, 30 to start the ball rolling.

I wonder if , just like with Holmes, a certain player is there.. what you alluded to is actioned. Lets say they love Sonsie and he is there... do they say lets do it . It hurts next year but it gives us 12 months with him.

Id prefer to keep a hot hand next year. Not only will we be losing players..we will probably be looking at trades.

The down side of a mature list is the lack of trade collateral. It seems once your list is on the nose the only way to get picks is to pay the price in H&A.

 

[My Tilly]

Wow.

Have a look at their history.

You will quickly notice they seem to get it right a lot more so than what other teams do.

 

[catman2006]

Wow.

Its a risky strategy but can understand why, brings them closer to a premiership or leaves them in the wilderness for years

 

[And_ROOS]

You mean you could put your retirement village on it.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Lobb doesnt like to play ruck... but one would think someone up there would be thinking about their position. Mumford gone but Preuess to come back. If they are happy good luck to them for developing their own..but it seems rucks are the most liquid role. Almost certain that one of them ends up elsewhere.

The kid at Ess is one id keep an eye on to... it will be hard for him to jump Draper

Yeah i just think gws have a lot of rucks and tall forwards so if Lobb goes there i reckon you could try and get one (though they are contracted). Im not sure id want preuss at his 4th club but id definitely be keen on briggs.

Bryan you mean? Yeah hes one id consider long term.

Wonder if Wingard goes back to Port.

 

[Turbocat]

Wow.

History says its worked for them. Clubs taking players off them that were nearly done. Clubs who were overly focused on the now. They were the last #1 pick trade i think.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Wonder if Wingard goes back to Port.

Port dont want him back and i think the crows have other priorities.

Fair call. Dropping Josh Thomas as we speak
