Trade Rumour.

[ablettjnr]

I don't believe it one bit, for MANY reasons, but it came from a source near to the club...

Akermanis + Rd 2 Draft pick <===> Mooney.

Like I said, I don't believe it, and I wouldn't want it either.

 

[Devilcat]

Still LOLing at 'the worst kick in football history' by Mooney against the Crows. Akermanis = the next Sam Newman. That is why they hate each other so much.

Mooney is way to valuable, not jsut to the club on the field but also for the field off the club. He is a great leader and helps out around the community. The GFC would not trade him. And if they did...........

 

[finrod]

Why would Brisbane need Mooney anyhow? And I'd want a first round pick for him - forget Akermanis!

 

[Soupy]

Odd trade to me, looks like BS for a few reasons

Bomber has said he doesnt want Aker.
Mooney has proved his value this year, would look more "real" with a name such as J.Kelly

Edit: I wouldnt want that smartass Aker at our club either, the little twit I could imagine would not be too welcome down at the Cattery in place of the popular Moons.

 

[thehoff]

GARBAGE!

Mooney = GFC Captain for season 2007.

Note Mooney's sudden involvement is post game interviews and media appearances..... ALl training for next year and i for one am all for it.

GO MOONDOG!

You know how sometimes you hear a trade rumour and you say to yourself, "hmm, that's not bad, it's win-win and could actually happen".

This, is not one of them.

How quick these things seem to change , Acker(Brownlow Medalist)+R2 pick in a super draft for a guy who is reckless, destructive , upsetting and was basically a game or two from being flicked, it would have seem an amazing deal not so long ago.

Now we have a fantastic fringe dwelling finisher thats near the end of his career , someone who is past his best and has basically brought his own club to the point of implosion + a very handy pick that will probably take 2 years min. to be worth anything for us in exchange for a guy who has developed into game breaking, match winning key froward or a power mid who can break packs and opposing players with his strength.

Yeah, seems like a bargain

mooney?? or should there have been a full-stop?

Was it the guy that picks up the garbage each week ?

 

[JUBJUB]

Hang on,ablettjnr never said which Mooney.Perhaps it's Darren.

Okay,DEAL !!!!!!!

 

[billybrownless16]

NO DEAL

 

[Copernicus]

Bloody well hope not. Wonder who the 'source' is, though. A bottle of Heinz, maybe?

 

[thegerman]

Acker is probably the most over-rated player at the moment, his gums are flappin but nothing is happening on the field. He is the next Sam Newman, the only difference is he has won a flag, both are still losers though.

 

[CF]

if it looks like a duck, and walks like a duck, then it is a duck

 

[LongBomb]

I've heard some dodgy rumours over the years but this one take the cake.

The club finally have someone who is showing a bit of ticker at CHF. A future captain.
And they would trade him for a bloke who is divisive and well past his prime?

Not going to happen.

 

[ablettjnr]

I've already said I don't believe it one bit.

Came from a guy who lives with some GFC players.

I think your sorce may have been on the sauce when he came up with this one. Moons would be pretty much untouchable ATM and has step up and shown great leadership. Something that our club won't trade away.

 

[Mooney_d'King]

Hang on,ablettjnr never said which Mooney.Perhaps it's Darren.

Okay,DEAL !!!!!!!

Excellent thinking - Darren Mooney for Aker - BRILLIANT!!!

I'd have to agree.

 

[TGTOA]

Objectively, it's a balanced trade. BUT:
-can't see why Brisbane would want Mooney
-can't see why Geelong would want Aker
-can't see Geelong letting Mooney go, unless someone offerred WAY over the odds for him

[FONT=&quot]Sounds like a winning move. [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Geelong[/FONT][FONT=&quot] have an abundance of marking options who are regularly taking contested marks up forward. Mooney's are a dim a dozen down at [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Geelong[/FONT][FONT=&quot]. Still Imaine a Brisbane side with a decent CHF that is capable of playing in the midfield.

Another positive is that the move would fill the massive hole in the [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Geelong[/FONT][FONT=&quot] side. [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Geelong[/FONT][FONT=&quot] desperately needs another small forward/midfielder. Kelly, Bartel, Chapman, Ablett, Stokes, Tenace, Byrnes & Varcoe leave us perilously short of options in this department.[/FONT]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Ahhh that was so funny. But not if Darren Mooney is GOOD! Lol.

And NO to the Akermanis trade.
Anything to do with Akermanis the answer is NO!

 

[Rosella]

I think the source close to the club is someone who lives in sheltered accomodation within spitting distance of Kardinia Park.

 

[captain dewy]

yeah as if somebody that lives with a GFC player would know such planning.
As if anyone that is a GFC player would know such planning.
This sort of planning would never be discussed.
Acker would put it out into the media as we all know he represents himself and did this **** last time his contract was up for negotiation.
We have a stong heart and he will stay! end of thread!
