List Mgmt. The 2017 Draft & Trade Hypotheticals Thread (cont. in Part II)

Any takers for Gaff? Didn't I read he was on the table? I've never paid him much attention, but he's an elite runner and outside mid, right? Probably cost us Hewett and a 2nd rounder?

I would love to get Gaff but won't happen. Wouldn't want to lose Hewett anyway as I highly rate him

We met Watts today.

Did the meeting go well?

 

[ashep]

We met Watts today.

I'll believe it when I read it on chunky's blog.

 

[mikey_san]

He wants to come to Melbourne and St Scum are cashed up

Don't be rude to our development club for Full Forwards.
But yeah I guess they have some Roo cash to spend.

Bontempelli unhappy at Dogs!

I heard Stringer was shagging his way through the ****** ******

Wait.. this is rumours we don't already know?

 

[Tedeski]

We met Watts today.

So Watts happening.

 

[SilentHunter_]

Watts with these puns?

 

[caesar88]

Watts with these puns?

I hope the rumours about Watts don't turn out to be a Gaff

 

[grimlock]

Sheahan is bedford?

Settle down. That post is off by Miles.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Not these puns again.

Anthony Miles won the Tigers B&F in the VFL

Have to say the way Melbourne have publicly shamed Watts is doing nothing for his value i would offer them 31 and thats it.

It's very strange. It's the sort of tough talking language clubs usually use when they're pissed off with losing a player rather than encouraging one to leave.

They have definitely created a scenario where there is no turning back.

Perhaps a scare tactic to motivate him?

I think it is a bit unprofessional and over the top what they have said.

Most of the talk they could have kept behind closed doors if all they wanted to do was light a fire.

All to weird another thing how the heck do Port have enough salary cap to sign Rockcliff, Watts and Motlop who is rumored to be linked to them?

Free up cap space for Lever who will be on $750k+. Watts salary would be a decent amount.

Will be interesting a club trying to force a player out that doesn't wanna leave!

 

[Tuco]

Maybe. Shocking way to try and motivate a bloke though.

Certain types of personalities can respond - usually the very strong ones - to being dressed down like that (your Toby greene/s and Stevie Johnson's) but those self-confident types are just as likely to have a massive falling out and react like an Akker or Hall did and completely break with the club.

I don't get the sense Watts is that type of player. Could be wrong though.

Hawks tried to move Schoenmakers along at the end of 14, he didn't budge, stayed and played in the 15 grand final. Player has the upper hand when still contracted.

They didn't come out and throw everything into the public though did they?

Weird situation. But if he did meet with us sounds like he might at least be pragmatic as opposed to digging his heels in.

 

[Punts]

Watts is also meeting with pies players and officials as he decides where he wants to play
