Come on guys, Cats have only really got 1 big fish in a looooong time, Ottens was his name. I can't see why a player would come to us now, we've had our run. Let's just concentrate in kids.

If this danger rumour is true I will be shattered. Yet other player lost to unforeseen circumstances That gfc can not Control. Just more bad luck for gfc I am so over getting my hopes up only to be cut right back down. However I do not blame danger for staying I am just fustrated That we have not landed a big fish yet.
had he signed this week it would have been announced this week
massive good news story

and we havent seen the geelong mafia visit which occurs when a deal is about to be breached

Mahlepi can I ask if your source is giving you updated information? A few people have had sources tell them that Patty "agreed" to come to Geelong at the end of last year. Is your confidence based on what was true back then or do you get updated information about his continued affirmation of that decision?

Why do we need to keep going over this? The answer is geography.

Don't really get the logic behind waiting two weeks to announce it if he's been signed. It may be true, but I don't see what it accomplishes. Surely if they'd signed Danger, they'd want to make it public as soon as possible in order to end the rampant speculation. The sideshow would be over, and both clubs could move on. I guess if he signed right around the time of Phil Walsh's death, I could understand keeping it under wraps for a little while, but you'd think enough time had passed by now and this would be the type of news to pick the supporters up after that tragedy. Arbitrarily choosing to keep it hidden for weeks seems to serve little purpose.

If we signed Motlop, I wouldn't want them to wait two weeks before announcing it. That's two more weeks of media figures droning on about it, which nobody involved enjoys.

I'm still leaning towards him staying at the Crows, but these rumours about done deals and delayed announcements are worthy of quite a bit of skepticism.

Willo, I am behind on the Corey Gregson injury issue- do you know anything about it? He was subbed off for a foot, no great news on the replay. I HATE FOOT injuries in FOOTballers.
I'll get one of my minions onto it

:D
Doesn't appear to be a lot to it Vdubs. He was subbed out with what looked to be an ankle injury but post-game Scott said it was "a little bit sore" and the sub was more tactical than anything (read: Gregson was in the gun as the 21st best player on the ground at the time). He seemed to be walking on the foot fine after the game and cats_09 saw him today walking fine too.

Maybe they'll be cautious and give him a week off or maybe he'll be fine. Tough to say at this stage.




(PS. will there be anything else Willo_ ??)
