RUMOUR FILE

[deeflog 679]

It is a rather balmy night in Melbourne.

if this is true i will be bloody delighted, its no coincidence that the last 2 clubs he has been at have had a huge amount of success

[beelzebub 23,382]

whats the enticement to leave a perfectly good scratching post though ?

[Tony Tea 2,809]

The Eagles are travelling to Los Pollos Hermanos before the game tonight to get a 'winning edge'; must be something in the chicken.

Los Pollos Hermanos: 11 secret herbs and spices and blue crystals.

[rpfc 28,753]

Not that one. The guy that oversees total football operations

left vacant by Leoncelli

That's the way I read it anyway.

I really doubt that.

The position left vacant by Leoncelli, as mentioned, is a board position that Garry is standing in.

The Director of Football is usually reserved for former players and with good reason - having a non-loyal Demon in a position on the board with an ear to all facets of the club would be dangerous.

I think the position you have caught wind of would be in the FD, hopefully as head of the FD.

Get some tiger balm on our nuts, get us moving again...

[beelzebub 23,382]

Hed be a purfect fit

Yes ... a board member regardless of type, not just of our club but any club ... must be dyed in the wool for that club.

My only query

Look out for Asian Managers who drive Volvo Wagons.....

[Lutz 76]

I know this is ridiculous, but this is a rumours thread..........:....

My neanderthal Essendon supporting mates keep telling me Neeld is looking to trade Moloney and that Beamer has met with James Hird at his house about a possible move.

I just laugh at it, but they are adamant and it keeps coming up.

[Lutz 76]

He's Chilean.

Oh, my favorite time of year is Autumn, for that very reason.

Mark Fall - Head of Coaching?

What are your informants saying we're getting in return?

Let me guess ... Leroy Jetta and a fourth round pick?

[Lutz 76]

No details to that end.

Just that Beamer has been meeting with Hird at his house and that the clubs are talking about a trade.

No details beyond that........... probably because of their limited imagination.

NB - I hope so.

I heard that Michael Hurley is moving to GWS for alot of money....

Cant reveal my source but yeah James Hird doesnt feel like he needs his best player anymore,

So guess its happening

[old55 23,687]

The new head of our football department will be announced after the finals

because they are participating in the finals.

Poor misguided attempt at humour?

It was, but i was also showing that thats the amount of credibility your friends have and how simple it is to make that crap up

[Lutz 76]

I think we're all already aware of that.

Nonetheless, it was a rumour rather than just an attempt to wind me up - they are genuinely excited at the prospect.

Just sharing what I've heard... as seems to be the entire point of this thread.

Was never an attempt to wind you up Lutz, but definitely to wind your mates up, or a poor attempt at doing so

was just trying to show you how little it all meant, as you may have been taking something out of their comments

Although rumours started as soon as Scully's stopped about Hurley to GWS, i obviously no little about it

btw your mates sound alot like Essendon supporting mates i know...

[Lutz 76]

Well they ARE essendon supporters...

[1964nowMORE 492]

I watched Tom Curran play for Wesley vs Carey the day I went to see young Jack Viney have a hit out....Wesley won by 100+pts and Curran kicked at least 8 goals....was simply massive compared to the defence....looked ok to me

Rumor from BigFooty

"Melbourne thinking about using all first round picks (including compo) to make a play for Jaeger and Dangerfield. They feel that Craig could help get the deal done."

http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/showthread.php?t=874854&page=65

Most likely bullcrap, interesting either way with Damian Barrett mentioning salary cap room.

I can really see both happening.

Dangerfield wants to come home to VIC. And is a big fan of Craig! Has stated before his future will be influenced by whether the Crows keep Craig or not. Craig has for one chosen the MFC over opposition clubs. Including Carlton. For this reason Dangerfield will be a Demon. Pick 12 & a player.

The Dee's will use both compo picks on a player like O'meara in a heart beat. We want the best! And we are out to get it done... We are no longer the club players put a line through. First class facilities, coaches, fitness staff and calling the G home is a huge draw card for players. The Melbourne FC will be world class! Both Scully compo picks & a player ready to go. Warnock, Bate, Maric, Morton etc. GWS wont want to put all there draft picks into one season. Dealing with the Dee's give's them flexibilty to draft or trade again in there 2nd year. More advantageous than GC pick 4. Dee's will make sure this deal gets done! O'meara & Viney ready to go in 2013.

I love the tone and optimism of this post, but do you think it'll really happen? Is Dangerfield that besotted with Craig? Won't he hang around to see how the new coach works out?

Pick 12 + Warnock??
