Opinion No Buddy or Jesse White , No Worries !!!!!

[valkorum]

Wait until Hawthorn trade for Mumford

Mumford was sensational against us in the PF..... pfft

 

[go_the_dockers]

Our midfield put the Swans midfield to the sword in the PF.

Franklin has never played that well against us. Mcpharlin in particular towels him up every year.

I actually think this deal was a dumb strategic move for Sydney, and won't impact on us at all.

If Swans can trade away White, Mumford and maybe Reid for 2 more second rounders and a 1st rounder if they trade Reid, they have done unbelievable.

They can then draft and develop 3 new players with out losing anything.

Don't forget mason shaw at port.. Didn't play on the first and may have limited chances next year given the ports line up. AFL seriously needs to consider this CoLA bs, it's not the same as it is 20 years when they brought it in. Perth is now expensive, where's west coast and fremantle's salary cap help? Screw the afl and Demetriou

 

[free at last]

Mumford would be odds on to end up at Melbourne surely.

Is the mummy out of contract?

 

[Kram]

Seems a bit of a strange fit for Sydney structurally, although he's obviously still very good he's a bit overrated these days, not really sure he's worth paying an obscene amount of money to.

Pretty risky though - putting alot of eggs in the Buddy basket.

Maybe grab Mummy and turn Clarke into a forward. Then after Sandilands retires, bring in Griffin and have Mumford and Griffin as our ruck combo with Clarke and maybe Bradley switching roles on occasion.

Clarke is not a forward, he is a ruck and will be our ruck on 1-2 years. We have Sandi has our ruck, we do not need another one.

 

[YelloMit]

Clarke can take great contested marks and seems to be a relatively accurate set shot for goal, plus he has the agility and athleticism to crumb as well if need be.

What is this based on? His entire career of not showing it as a forward?

 

[StingBitten]

We need a young genuine, tall forward. Not a ruckman who can kick goals. Sandi, Clarke and Griffin can all take marks and contribute the odd goal, but they're not specialised forwards.

We were never after Buddy, although it would have been better him moving to an irrelevant team whilst making a strong team slightly weaker as opposed to somehow making two elite clubs even stronger.

Sharrod didn't do enough to seduce Buddy to come home. **** you Sharrod and your puncey hairdo.

Straight to the original post.
Fyfe

5 years and huge bucks. Hope it burns them.

How are we not after Buddy? apparently we've started making inquiries again. Plus GWS have seemingly been told buddy isn't interested and the giants have assumed he's going to sydney.

 

[jusjoshin]

Love Fyfe, but if they offered Jeremy Cameron...

I'd probably do it.

If they had offered Cameron @ #1 you'd have too take it- but with a heavy heart & we have too remember if it did occur its only because Fyfe forced it. Highly unlikely we'd force it.

 

[JunglistPosse]

Buddy can use this Cola for Coke

 

[HowieD]

I think you're all forgetting the big thing.

Kepler will be back in full force in 2014! Pavlich, Kepler, and a resting ruckman in Griffin, Sandi or Clarke. Drool...

9 years, not 5. No wonder we didn't touch him

 

[FreoGirl]

leaves us with more money in the kitty to keep Fyfe

 

[salim malik]

Cant be right,9 years would make him a 36 yr old at contract end and still on their books

 

[Purple_Passion]

Also means GWS have a lot more money to throw at Fyfe

 

[Freo Hitman]

Everything into perspective here , Franklin is not worth more than $750k per year.

 

[FreoGirl]

I will throw everything I have at Fyfe
