Pavlich rumour

[Groucho]

Doing the rounds that Collingwood have offered Pavlich $2.1 mill for 3 years PLUS a spot on a Channel 9 show. Other interested parties mighty peeved!

Who cares - Pavlich wont go to Melbourne.

Collingwood offer him a Channel 9 spot and I think you will find the AFL would investigate. Seems a little bit like bending of the rules to me.

Don't you mean Channel Nine have offered him $2.1 million for three years AND a spot on the Collingwood list?

 

[dougthelegend]

wouldnt surprise me about the media contract part. That part puts just about any other club out of the running, who else has the likes of Eddie Maguire as club president.

rofl that sounds about right

 

[SupaCat]

Looks like Channel 9 is undergoing a revamp. Pavlich and Carey joining Channel Ed!

I'm starting to think I did mean that!

If Pavlich leaves Freo it will be to come home to Adelaide and play. If Collingwood offered him that much you would wonder how much they were exceeding their salary cap by.

 

[dougthelegend]

Collingwood: "Salary Cap....What Salary Cap....Whats That??"

Theres no way hes going to Collingwood.

I don't want him to go to Port either, Pav and Tredrea in the same team for the next 10 years will be too unfair to opposition sides.

Collingwood's definitely one of the teams in the mix. Always have been very interested.

Ooh. Not happy with Christopher Rohan?

 

[Danny Chook Fan Club]

He's a flanker. Shouldn't be played key position, because he doesn't respond to that focus.

If Molloy or Cummings could get into the ones, that would improve him.

 

[dbhattarai]

We don't need anymore over-rated forwards.

I wish someone would blast a rocket up you know where. So talented but so laconic.

Tazz would be a superstar if he had Hamill's intensity.

If he wasn't the focal point he might still be.
Bit hard to force someone to be what he isn't.

Tredrea was never going to be a champion FF, but for a couple of years that's where people wanted him.
Playing players "out" of position will make them seem inconsistent, the occasional brilliant game followed by a number of ordinary ones.

Freo, over-rated forwards?
Surely not.

 

[dbhattarai]

Trent Croad
Justin Longmuir
Jeff Farmer
Clive Waterhouse
Luke McPharlin
Matthew Pavlich
Paul Medhurst


... in other words, the whole forward line.

 

[Danny Chook Fan Club]

This should be interesting. What time does sabre wake up?

From my point of view, J Longmuir and Medhurst are not overrated, while Pavlich and McPharlin aren't really forwards.

Do you think Hamill is a flanker too? I do.

 

[Lockyer24]

overrated? more like un-rated

 

[The Spornstar]

Have to disagree on McPharlin. That kid could be anything if he stays injury free. Would love him at Carlton. Though he's a defender if you ask me.

Slightly different. Much better as a flanker, but capable of playing CHF (definitely not FF).

Combined, Hamill and Whitnall had just about everything (except pace). Great combination, it's a pity for Carlton it couldn't be nurtured. They could have made a dud like Fevola respectible in time.

Definitely a thread to keep an eye on.

Agree.
Victims of circumstances.
How much are these four getting paid wrt. the others mentioned?

Well I wake up around 8 but then I go to uni.
But just for your DCFC I have come on while at uni so here goes.

McPharlin if anything is underated.
The 2 times he has been thrown forward I think he has kicked 2 bags of 4.
Very much the Hay type player as I think you have said before.

Pavlich is a Kouta type mr fixit and can play anywhere on the field.

Croad overated??
Well you guys didnt rate him too highly over here and I never had over the top expectations.
Overpaid maybe

Farmer yes slightly overated I must admit i expected better.

Same goes for longmuir...sure he has been injured all season but I still expected better.

Medhurst is a first year player that quite often is our only option up forward.
No way is he overated.
