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

[CatToTheFuture]

Gehrig was always insanely fit too, except for the tail end of his career where he copped a few injuries. But its funny because early in his career he was a pacey winger and in the end he was a monster forward. Imagine if Hawkins was a winger from 07 to 2012 and then became a KPF after that.

Gehrig, 1995, drafted to the Eagles in 1993 VS Gehrig, PF 2004.

So jarrod brander should go to the gym and get massive?

 

[year of the cat]

Freo draft the WA tall forwards surely.

Just hoping that they will be taken with the picks prior to our first allowing Knevitt to slide to us. Have a feeling the Hawks or Syd may take him before us.

I'm a huge fan of McLachlan but we already have Miers, Dahlhaus, Simpson, Close, Evans, Holmes and now Stengle that all play a similar role.

Surely he offers more than Dal
I’ve also been a massive fan on Evans from day one but think Jackson could go past him tbh

Petracca is only 186cm. I'm talking 190cm+. There's really not many that have been successful outside Bont, Cripps, Fyfe and Mundy. JPK is 189cm, could argue Hugh Greenwood (191cm) is decent.

There's been lots of 190cm+ MIDs taken early that end up being flops - Setterfield, Scrimshaw, Langford (some might disagree), Acres, Collier-Dawkins.

Geelongs best midfielder was 190+. Joel Corey.

 

[And_ROOS]

So jarrod brander should go to the gym and get massive?

Yes. And then when Hawk retires Brander can start kicking 100 goals a season.

Also, saw this before

 

[BORIS332]

What role is that? Dahlhaus and Close are tackling/pressure forwards, Miers is a FP that is always up the field but chips in with some goals and assists, Simpson is a slower midfielder, probably inside mid but flexible, and Holmes is a pacey outside mid/winger.
And Stengle will be a dedicated goal scoring forward pocket.

Small forward.

 

[BORIS332]

Geelongs best midfielder was 190+. Joel Corey.

And he was drafted two decades ago.

 

[Scottland2007]

And he was drafted two decades ago.

Is he not still playing?

 

[foxdog50]

Still hope to be rookie listed Foxy.
I'm rooting for it

I don't understand it.... Can someone pass a message to him, saying I don't agree with what they have done? I'm his biggest fan

Trend setter.

You may be able to tell him that in next year VFL huddle

 

[foxdog50]

Geelong are eyeing the Dogs pick 23 according to the AFL app.

What are they saying which picks we swap for?

Ill get my local football club to pick him up so I can see him in person

 

[Two Planks]

What are they saying which picks we swap for?

They dont

 

[goyoucatters]

Not sure that picking up a tall via the DFA option equates to SDK not being given a go next season

We went into this past season with Henderson, Blicavs, Kreuger & SDK as tall defensive options. With our list changes we've lost half those players, and if we don't look at a tall defensive option via DFA list or draft, we may well be leaving ourselves short next year.

I see what you did there...

 

[cats_09]

Smith auditioning for his new role in list management - wonder if next year he could have a few friendly words with a few younger former teammates

 

[CatToTheFuture]

What are they saying which picks we swap for?

I think they'll have to work through scenarios and live trade out on the night spending on where the pick lands. Could go a lot of ways and Wells will have to have contingency picks for all our picks and theirs as any scenario could play out

 

[cats_09]

I see what you did there...

It was completely unintentional,

 

[Warhorse]

Small forward.

Can take over the close or dahlhaus role of small forward who doesn't kick goals

 

[And_ROOS]

Freos social media accounts are great! Its literally the only thing the club has going for it besides Sean Darcy

Man that is awesome. That is how you run a social media account

This will give some people nightmares.




Oh. You said “younger”.

So this time next year we should expect to see McEvoy, Gunston & Shiels in the hoops...

 

[Turbocat]

Makes sense..offer them extra points and try and get it.
