Noticing that the speculation about GWS's next victim/target is very muted this year. Is Boak off to GWS? If not, then which lucky player(s) and unlucky club(s) is going to win the AFL's lotto and earn more than they're worth?

It's not us so all good there.

Goddard is not signing with the saints in a very quiet manner.

I don't think they can Poach him, they've already taken one from us.

I was speaking in general actually, they can have Green if they want.

Nah, Green after yesterday's performance has more worth at the club than I thought he did a month ago. He will play next year I hope

How good did green look when we had clearance's and he was playing deep forward? Man I wish we had a good midfield it would make green look better and he would get the respect he deserves. Also would give Petterd a chance to show his stuff too.

Dunno, but they need to snag someone. Their two Marquee signings of Scully & Folau have been absolute duds. The lack of any GWS talk tells me they've got nothing yet as opposed to the very loud jungle drums of years past re: player movement. The other point is that there is a massive gap in their list between youngtsers and players who have just about had it. If they don't score a credentialled big name Gubby Allen and Sheeds with have substantial egg on their faces, AFL to the rescue?

If GWS has taken a player from a club already under the uncontracted player rule, can they take another who also happens to be a free agent or restricted free agent? As the GWS rules were done before the free agency rules logic would say they cannot. Anyone know the definitive answer?

Given the earlier talk that Jamar might be targeted as a FA by GWS, i think they can take more players this way.

Probably "at the discretion of the AFL Commission"

Hopefully not Sam Blease in the PSD.

Haven't the rules changed and players have to go in the National Draft first?? No chance Blease to get to GWS if thats the case.

Moot point anyway. He aint going anywhere.

If GWS cant buy the guns in the age group they want, I could see them going again with a handful of semi-retirees.

There are a few contemplating retirement - forced or otherwise (eg. Green, Corey, Gilbee etc). Add assistant-coach to the title and they might jag a few 1 year gap fillers.

There's no point paying millions for a Goddard if he wont be around when/if GWS start making finals.

Key defenders. Ben Reid yet to sign. Cloke re-signing could force him out. Their cap must be tight.

Not sure they'd go for KPD....... They've already got some decent ones there....

I'd think they're more likely to target ruckmen and possibly medium lead-up forwards, personally.

Posted

Wonder if Sam Blease wants to join his mate scully. We could trade for an u17.

I would prefer not to but just in case that does happen i thought i would put it out there.

Posted

Ben Reid looks a good bet atm. I doubt anyone from the Hawks is planning a move. Is Sam Reid contracted? It'd be a hell of a coup to get the pair.

Bloody oath he is.......

Sam Reid signed a five year deal with the Swans earlier this sason.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
