Matthew Pavlich: Adelaide

[KUNG FU]

I was watching "Best Goals" on Bigpond TV on afl.com.au and it listed Matthew Pavlich as an Adelaide player. Freudian slip?

I know this will end up being little more than hearsay and speculation, but what are people's thoughts on this. Pav playing a solid marking role at CHF would certainly make us the shorts odds favourite for the flag in 2007

 

[Gets!]

Not again.

Whispers here suggest Peter Bell will drop the captaincy of the Fremantle Football Club after this season ends and that Matthew Pavlich is the heir apparent to lead the FFC

SORRY! I'm a newbie!

I wouldn't be surprised at all.

 

[Lach72]

Get away from him! All of you!

ALL OF YOU!!!!!

Shorter than $2.80?

 

[FCAGJAT]

This thread was certainly misleading

 

[RogerRabbit69]

Reckon there's a fair chance Pav would like to return to SA at some stage. Don't know how soon, though.

 

[KUNG FU]

I'd put $100 on at $1.01

Would love him at the AFC but this years draft is loaded with great young players and to get Pavlich we would need to offer Freo our 1st round pick, the AFC would be insane to give it away.

How good do you think the draft is? Giving away a pick in the mid teens in any draft for a player of Pavlich's quality would be an absolute steal. He'd cost a fair bit more. And he'd be worth every bit of it.

 

[RogerRabbit69]

^^^^ Agreed. I'd give up our first-round pick for Pav in a heartbeat. He's only 24 and should have another 6-7 years of top-line footy in him.

 

[sludgebucket_05]

Personally knowing the man, even though he has business interests over there he is keen as to finish his career back in Adelaide. Preferably at the Crows.

The draft is very very good this year probably the best for a long time.

So what?!

As Craigy and Fantasia said on the new today, just because the draft is considered good and deep, its doesn't mean that we will go all out to recruit as many kinds as possible.

If Pavlich is there for the taking and it involves our 1st round pick, you can bet your bottom dollar we will be there offering it.

Dont get me wrong I would love Pavlich at the AFC, maybe they will throw the farm at Fremantle to secure him, who knows.

Problem is Fremantle have already set the bar on what a player is worth by giving up 3 draft choices for Josh Carr...they would expect something similar imo

We would have no issue giving up our 1st round pick for Pav. Heck we would even throw in the CHB from the best defence in the AFL if he wanted to return home. Problem is Freo would want more, so I can see him coming home just yet - unless he walks.

lol. this is too good, you're the best!

Agreed ... and those draft picks don't always turn out the players they are supposed to be. It's definitely a risk worth taking with Pavlich!

It's not our problem that they are shocking traders.

Pick 16 + a player and I'll take Pav in a heartbeat.

Lets get S.Stevens worth up for the rest of the season. Let him play it out, and get the boys around him to keep making him look awesome. Trade pick 16 and one S.Stevens for Pav

Realistically, if Freo don't make finals this year or next, he will walk. His contract runs out at the end of next year. I'm sure he's hungry for some success. And right now, he won't get it at freo with CC at the helm.

But, if a new coach were to come in, i doubt we would get him, as A: they will likely be more successful and B: The new coach couldn't be as dumb as "cuddles"

[Cynic mode = on]
Can't help thinking that if I was after the captain's seat and a pay rise at Freo, I'd be loving rumours like this...

[Mad Dog]

hmmm - trade something for Pavlich.....now there's an idea.....
