Brendon Goddard

[Clark_Kent 315]

I havn't heard much talk about this guy.

He is a FA at the end of the year and I was interested to see if people think he would be worth chasing?

Would add class,spread and work ethic to our side. Could be a big help to the younger guys.

[Sir Why You Little 34,443]

Yes.

[olisik 4,060]

Freo going to go hard at him once Cloke signs apparently.

Funny enough the whole Cloke saga has suspiciously died down this week...

Provided Clark's foot comes up OK, and I guess it will be a while before anything definite is known, then Goddard would probably offer us more options then would Cloke. He would be a huge pick up!

[Deers 202]

I liked the idea a few months ago, but have cooled since.

We should focus our energies on the draft: building a strong, two-tiered squad of talented youngsters (Trengove / Watts / Gysberts et al & the 2012 class).

[BIG JIM 508]

I would have to say no.

Would be getting old now and would like to see the money go to Beams or Boak.

[stuie 7,374]

Absolutely.

Definitely a Neeld type player too.

Stating to slide slowly in his workrate & hurt factor. Passe'.

I'd rather Boak @ age 23ish.

[Hannibal 5,814]

Not for me. He's been in the system now for a decade, is late 20's and has played his best footy.

Yup would rather concentrate on getting the Mids right, but...... as some of the older players are soon to drop off (prob very soon) we do need a few generals around the place if we could get him without going out on a limb, then do it. If the saints have a bad finish to the season then he might be tempted. Having Mission at the dees may help.

[Dee1987 277]

According to Brad Hardie, Cloke has now been offered 7 years by the dees. Didn't Mark Robinson say that Cloke would be signed at Collingwood by last Friday????? I'm thinking the Cloke saga may be far from over

[rjay 23,903]

No

If we offered him 7 years our board and management would be totally incompetent and Brad Hardie would be less relevant than I thought.

We wouldn't be THAT stupid would we?? Would we............?

[Range Rover 1,935]

No. Goddard's output is on the wane yet he's still going to command huge coin from some club. It shouldn't be us.

I'd offer a more modest two year deal to Chappy if the Cats only offer him one.

[Guest lambtotheslaughter]

Get Goddard, he and Jordie would be a great teaming (TFIC)

What give up pick 3 or 4 for him, no way. And 13 (kennedy) could end up a young anything, even a young Shayne Crawford type.

Don't want any expensive soon to be past its. I don't mind if we take a mature player with a 5th Rnd pick & $$$.

Yet he'd probably be one of our best players...

Would be great for our culture, toughness, and on-field spirit IMO.

Goddard's a free agent.

[MadAsHell 4,088]

No for me.

Very good player but don't think he's the midfield general that we're after. Lenny Hayes leads the way down there at Seaford (still sounds weird saying that).

I'd prefer Boak. Think he's more capable of leading the midfield.

[Paul Gardner 6]

My info says he wants to get to the Blues.

[Dee1987 277]

Exactly i wouldn't be paying lots of coin for Goddard, he isn't overly that quick and tends to fade out of games ( although he is a good user of the pill we need both speed and skill) . Would Rather we pay for a Cloke Boak Caddy or Beams

[Redleg 37,577]

Agree.
