R Palmer

Hearing wispers that Ryce Palmer is seeking to be traded

Just heard on 6PR

 

[alfy!]

why were they whispering

 

[Defacto]

would be a good fit for essendon or brisbane.

He is not happy about being dropped and not getting opportunities will be interesting to see if he gets picked for the next game if not then his days at freo might be over

What a lil girl, he doesn't deserve his spot just yet. He's looking slow and off the mark, definitely will look better next season after a good pre season and some games after the injury but thats just soft if true.

Wait to hear that it's actually true before you hang one of your players out to dry.

He'll need to improve his appearance if he is to move to cultural Melbourne. Can't have rat tails.

Find it hard to believe, given he's orginally a WA boy.

 

[The Falcon Strike]

Given it was on 6pr - he's probably just signed a 3 year deal!

I heard the rumour from someone I believe to be a very reliable source that the club is keen to trade him this off-season. Apparently Harvey just doesn't rate him.

As bad as he's been this year, I hope they give him another year to recover from his injury and get back to his best. He was by far our best midfielder in 2008.

this.

I wouldn't particularly see him as a good fit for Essendon. The last thing we need is a midfielder with iffy kicking skills.

Be interesting to hear the reactions of some Essendon supporters who spent 2 years sooking we chose Myers over him

 

[Philhawk]

If we could afford him, would definitely give love to see him with us.

I really rated him last year and I think he could benefit learning from someone like Burgoyne.

 

[W. Smithers]

Might be a good move. Freo had a good year without much input from him. He'll definitely have value and might help them pick up another early pick or a required positional player.

I'm a massive Myers fan but you can't exactly say he's got Palmer covered at this stage.

Both have been pretty disappointing (injuries playing their part in both cases)

 

[Herne Hill Hammer]

Malceski had an ordinary season in '09 after returning from his knee.

Not me.

He'll obviously be better next year after another pre-season, but his kicking skills are average, the game has got wicker and he's lost a little pace and power. Result, his skills aren't getting better any time soon.

I'd definitely pass.

Gimme gimme gimme.

Worst rumour I've heard since the last one I heard on 6pr.

Contracted ball magnet in a team that, yes, has done well without him but still don't exactly have a lot of midfield depth.

His first year was exceptionally good, he has struggled a bit coming back from a knee reconstruction but 95% of players do.

My opinion - there is no chance Harvey "doesn't rate him", and there is no chance he is not in Freo's plans for the future. Just like there is no chance Akermanis is going to be picked up by the Gold Coast, and there was no chance Malthouse to Richmond was a "done deal" last year. But keep 'em coming 6pr

 

[raskolnikov]

I'd like him at the Dons. We seem to have a pretty good record with ex-Freo players.

This whole post.

 

[Docker Clint]

why were they whispering

it's a secret.

 

[kirbylovespurple]

this rumour has been around for a few weeks now... I doubt its true, he is a WA boy, and from what ive heard he likes it here.

no, you're right, I'm not saying either has set the world on fire. But you should have heard the wailing and gnashing of teeth down our boards way for about 2 years. Understandable in some ways given Palmer's RS performance, but typically myopic of some

 

[Esky Lid]

Dockers may as well get rid of him. the only thing he did all year was break Barlows Leg ! ... And what was he doing there anyway ! He has cost the Dockers Big Time.

He is only a Good Midfielder in Crap Team. West Coast will take him ... he is best mates with Masten. You can tell they taught each other to kick !
