Rumour Tales from the Henley Beach Cafe: CROWS 2021 RUMOURS

[MarcusP2]

They keep saying he's about to sign a two year extension, but that's been floating around for a few weeks with no action. Was first mentioned at the same time as Hawkins.

Has Parfitt definitely signed on at Geelong? Now with Smith and Higgins coming in, he may want to move.

Actually... my sauce lives in my cupboard. I simply posted what bottles actually state. The theory is... that the manufacturer believes that items that live in the cupboard are often overlooked, whereas if they are in the fridge, they are seen many times a day and therefore more likely to be used.

Also, not sure how I get equated to be Trump loving???

FFS it’s on the label due to food standards

Similar to Brad Hill last year, am I the only one who doesn't get the hype over Zac Williams?

Half back flanker with shocking disposal. No AA's, B&F's etc.

is a better player and even he annoys me at times.

Paying more than $800k for a player like this just seems like incredibly poor list management.

is definitely not a better player. Not close

Brad hill is a better player

zac Williams contract makes no sense

 

[Panther Blood]

Could be wrong here, but didn't Jaidyn illegally bet on AFL games as well.

Yeah he did. He's no good at that either.

He has a poor work ethic unfortunately. It's a hard pass from me.

 

[jenny61_99]

Serious question why would any FA paper work need to wait? If for example like Crouch he knows St Kilda have X years with $Y in front of him and he has accepted it why would it have to wait to be done?

All of the free agents should be completed by 9:01am you would think. Particularly the ones who have known where they are going for some time.

AFL probably want us to drag it out for the drama and suspense.

last year and Dahlhaus and Rohan the year before that.

Does Geelong even have a salary cap?

Poor Paddy and Selwood are now on work experience wages.

 

[mistylake]

Looks like Fogarty and Jones are out there today doing some early training with Sloane, Smith and a few others.

Is there any chance of Fogarty donating 10kg to Jones. Would benefit both I think.

 

[mistylake]

Should replace Henley Beach Cafe with Hastings Street, NOOSA.

Not that anyone probably cares but So far in the last 3 days I’ve seen B Crouch about 10 times, R O’Brien, Seed, Dion Prestia

..and Danger has apparently just checked into my hotel. I also had a great chat with umpire Matt Stevic. Good bloke.

It’s a footy nuffie’s paradise here.

As you were.

Much nicer than the Goldy but not much nightlife.
A nice place for the male eyeball though

Not wrong there. Got caught looking a few times by Mrs Trigger.

 

[mistylake]

Not wrong there. Got caught looking a few times by Mrs Trigger.

I bought my first house in Sunrise Beach back in 1999. Worked on many a beachfront home new and reno from Sunshine beach to Peregian beach from ‘99 - ‘04.
We had a code word amongst the boy’s when it was worth diverting the eyes to a lovely sort walking to or from the beach. “Hey Jamie have you got the straight edge”.

 

[1970crow]

Poor Paddy and Selwood are now on work experience wages.

Paddy is on circa $1m, nothing more certain.

 

[1970crow]

Not wrong there. Got caught looking a few times by Mrs Trigger.

I'm sure Mrs Trigger hasn't noticed all the young, fit footballers wandering around in their swimming attire with their abs out. If anything like my darling, it would come with a, "why don't you look like that anymore".

 

[mistylake]

Because you’re such an awesome cook.

 

[mistylake]

So half the list are living on 2 minute noodles. And they consistently bring in big names on good money packages.
Do they have the same cap as us.
It’s truly a demented system where shitty teams must be overpaying underperforming players because they must spend the cap. It surely encourages teams to play poorly because there is no incentive if you still earn the same whether you collectively play well or just go through the motions.
Hey greens voters think about this when you suggest socialism is a good idea.

 

[fortunatecrow]

Just take the "anymore" and run

 

[jenny61_99]

I never understood why women have a problem with fellas looking at other women.

 

[CROUCH #2]

**** off troll

Have a rest bud

 

[Grenville]

Creative license.

 

[CROUCH #2]

Very cold year for rumours...

Too much uncertainty with the list size and cap seems to put ICE on the off season.

I'm hoping this isn't a sign for things to come in 2021

zac Williams contract makes no sense

Williams contract makes perfect sense when the initial start of offensive drive upfield is the from the half back line. With 6/6/6 now, that line has to be fully stoked.

 

[hey shorty]

800K...... No it doesn't make much sense at all.

 

[Red mist]

800K...... No it doesn't make much sense at all.

They’ve got the cap. And it will be done again even by us.
