Rumour Thread

[Visions]

wellingham's manager is on crack 3rd round for him are you having a laugh

what a twit.

Based on that his contract shouldn't be more than $150K a season.

 

[danielnajdek]

Tippett will announce he wants to be traded to Sydney.

Are the AFL gonna investigate how Sydney can fit him into their cap. Oh wait the AFL gives them extra cap money...

Absolute joke.

In other news, Greg Denham is reporting that GWS looks set to retain ruckman Jonathan Giles on a new 2 year contract.

Lots of good news this morning!

Can u fill me in royal I can't be arsed getting out of bed

It looks like we won't be shooting ourselves in the foot with Tippett, nor are we panicking over Ceglar and Witts' development to the point where we have to give up a 3rd first round pick in 5 years for another ruckman in Giles.

Happy days.

So we didn't get anyone.. err yay?

This 1 minute shows why we should do everything to get Martin from the Dees. Don't rate him on this year. Don't rate anyone from that club on their performances this year. I think there was a collective sigh from the whole side when it appeared they had taken a massive backward step.
He can run, take a decent overhead mark. really athletic, and his best is ahead of him. Lets jump on.

 

[FIGJAM]

He can run

He is slow though.

Can do the big man things well and can play forward foil, which he has over Wood, and can be #1 rich to protect Witts and the very skinny Ceglar.

Wouldn't be averse to bring him in via a Dawes trade.

Bock must be treacle then as Martin burnt him off in the highlights at the end.

Hi, I'm Derek Hine. You might remember me from such drafts as 2006 when I picked two premiership KP defenders, and 2008 when I nabbed Rusty and Beamer with #12 and #30!

I'm with you TRS. Time the club injected some young talent with earlyish picks. If the Pies feel the need to move picks on for other players then so be it but I'm more than happy to head to the draft with 2-3 top 20 picks and let Hine/Rendell do their thing.

Rather strangely, I think he has good pace when he's going, but off the mark he can appear lumbering and as a big man, he can wear down quicker than your smaller players.

yeah I think his endurance could use some work but I'd say the whole Melb side needs to lift there.

What a life.

 

[FIGJAM]

I wish some rumour mongers would get out of bed and give us some goddamn "reliable source" rumours that are worth talking about, otherwise I might have to engage in life!

 

[Mudeo]

If the club is moving players on for picks then they must have something planned for the draft, Hine and Rendell wouldn't go in under prepared. So just remember what ever happens for this club happens for a reason and many plans are put in place to be successful.

Reports are Saying that Koby Stevens could be Involved in the Wellingham Trade

Source?
He seems average.
They must be thinking Stevens and pick 38.....

 

[Shade]

I just dont understand the logic in us being interested in Mitch Brown it would be beyond pointless wouldnt even get a game with us.

yeah but some of the reports i think are unfounded
like 3 way deals that effectively result in the eagles swapping stevens for wellingham
no way that will happen
wellingham is much more valuable than stevens
we need to just wait and see
i think at the very least we will get the eagles first round choice

[piesforlife]

why hasnt there been any talk about us going after clinton young, hes a free agent and would solve the leon davis role and would be perfect for the kick ins with that big left foot. been rumored Melbourne are going to make a play for him as well as Brisbane. would be a better pick up for our team than tippett wouldn't cost us 800,000-900,000

Absolute joke.

How much extra do they give them?
