Soldo for duursma and pickswapping is the word on the street
Please say it ain't so

even if he wins the game off his own boot for us im still gonna boo him if he does the bow n arrow

 

[Gratees]

Honestly think duurma for cheap would be fine, An upgrade on Macca on the wing atleast. But yeah awkward history there lol (For some fans, i highly doubt the players would give a s**t)

 

[Tigers Time]

Duursma has s**t himself in so many finals games he is a liability no wonder Port would potentially trade him. Wouldn’t trust him to do half the stuff Macca and Pickett do.

Would end up a bigger whipping boy than George, Macca, Pickett & Graham combined on this board.

Similar style of player to macca but at this stage superior , gets a decent amount of ball and good tackler , not a clinical kick sadly so will fit right in ,,,wip for ooze

Macca is well past it

 

[prodigy]

Big yes on Duursma.

He already helped win us a flag, may as well do it while playing for us.

The sleeper agent, Would be real Isaac Smith to Geelong energies about it

 

[THE THIN MAN]

Because he used to do the bow and arrow? who gives a *. He's a model citizen off field and captained gippy as a junior.

Reckon he'd thrive with a change of scenery and would add something different to our midfield mix.

To be fair that's the whole club, not jist Duursma.

What's your point?

We have enough players who could not hit the side of a barn with a banjo.

How about recruiting players with elite disposal?

 

[NZ_Tiger]

Langdon has horrendous skills and no way are his better than HRS, whom I can say I’m NOT a fan of.

Langdon is 10x the player.

Finishing top ten in our b&f says the club doesn’t agree with you.

Can’t trust rangas
Got burnt by Dan Connors… clarry lookalike

Would struggle to see the point in getting Duursma. We already have 3 higher rating wingers than him, Pickett, McIntosh, Ross. The only possible thing I can see is Duursma probably has the overhead ability to play the way we like our wingers to play, as aerial support in defence. But getting him would only make sense to me if one of our 3 established wingers was going to leave.

 

[BAFLD]

Can’t see us taking Durrsma. Interviewed him once and he openly hates us. Also where does that Leave Banks for a wing spot. Not sure we need anymore winger types. I’d like a KPD OR KPF for Soldo if we are swapping players. Address a need. Wingers are not a need of ours

[Lord of the Wings]

Duursma has big upside.

Yeah he could transition from a campaigner to a massive campaigner yet.

Our no dickheads policy should ensure he never comes to Punt Rd.

He is only 23 though tbf, only started in 2019.

 

[panatha1908]

In a weak draft we probably prefer a player for soldo to port, but if nothing suits them a future pick for Soldo maybe? I actually hope he goes as he deserves a few years as number 1 ruck the big Ivan!

 

[Morro]

Duuuuursma went alright as a HF in his first couple of years.

Don't get sucked in to thinking how our wings played under Hardwick is going to remain the same under Yze.

At Melbourne their wings kept their width and were used as outlets to be part of their counter attack. I can see us doing something similar especially if we bring in better ball users to play those roles.
