Rumour Speculation, Rumours, Lies Thread 2025 - Part 2

[Kane McGoodwin]

Ah Chee is a good get (it will happen tomorrow of that there is no doubt). Stevens could be good value. Otherwise, time to back in the players you have, lots to develop and progress with there

You are still in with a chance if ge goes into the PSD.

 

[Shuestar13]

Your still in with a chance if ge goes into the PSD.

Salary wise no problem but our list spots are tight. I think there would be some tacit agreement amongst clubs re the PSD. He’ll get to you guys one way or another

 

[rumour_troll_626]

The deal we put to Ah Chee is worth $2.6m over the five years.

Front ended in the first 3 years.

 

[Danger in Texas]

For all the whining, Crows have done very well the last few years so a quieter year was spoon the cards.

Look I’m still happy we’re getting someone who’ll be top 12 on our list, and I’ll also feel better if Hawks/Cats can’t land Merrett/Marshall

Just feels disappointing that we’re yet again relying on player development to improve our weakest area of the ground

 

[Linekers Ears]

Generally Geelong keep the players they rate, outside of Jordan Clark.

And Dean Gore....

Well given the username I can’t take this seriously lol

But not a bad contract if that’s true, a tad over 500k a year on average

They say you should always forgive a good horse one bad run, but 57 of them? I'm out.

My kingdom for a horse poster with real intel.

Trigger is a horse and Trigger13 nailed Burgess going to Juventis pretty early.

Well our starting midfield next year will probably be Dawson, Rankine and Peatling, all who we traded in.

lol .. shit puns galore this arvo

Just "horsing" around!

True, but we had to develop the first two into midfielders

Geelong second hand cars.....

Stupid trade week, got my hopes up for nothing.
I hope we atleast can get in CAH, nervous WCE pick him up he walks to PSD.

I know organic growth isn’t exactly what we wanted, but gotta remain positive. We have done some excellent recruiting last year and look where it got us this year…
Think of the players that improved, Woz, TT, Curtin etc. I have faith other players will improve right in front of our eyes.
Really was hoping someone like Powell could come over. But still remaining positive

Clearly the most important thought around here atm is to "never look a gift horse in the mouth"

 

[Schulzycrow]

I've enjoyed the trade period, mainly because I didn't listen to a minute of Trade Radio. We have been spoiled the last couple of years, and this is just back to Crows doing not much apart from telling Brisbane to stop being a bitch and see reason. 5:30 tomorrow, roll on and onto organic growth.

 

[TBM]

Still concerned we aren't exhausting all options to improve our squad. 1-2 extra low-cost additions like Stevens or Rosas would have been shrewd recruiting in positions we appear light on.

With a hard draw likely, if injuries strike next year we may be exposed. Save for a surprise tomorrow, looks like we're sticking to our usual conservative trade period (last year the obvious outlier) and not addressing the midfield bar organic growth

I think we are trying to to address the mids but no takers

Is the rumour true that Kenny used to be a dodgy brother?

Just running with it

How will it be harder than this year? We played Hawthorn, Gold Coast, Collingwood and Port twice.

There is evidence he is....he's the one on the left!

 

[PeterSalt]

****en hahahaha .. they thought they may lose this bloke to a senior coaching position in Melbourne

Instead it seems he's just going down the road to give Hardwick a reach around

 

[CROUCH #2]

Breaking up the quiet trade week.

What happened to Sanders? And when was the last time Alex popped up?
