Latest murmurings of a crazy time

[The Devil's Advocate 2]

i hope so. i would be devastated.

[Jaded No More 68,975]

CONFIRMED

I lol'ed

Even if Frawley wanted out, he is contracted so good luck to him.

He is ours, and we won't be letting him go!

[markc 975]

Pick 13 is gone & is now Pick 20.

Dees expect another top 25 pick to come their way via other deals in coming days also!

Draft wise, Dees confident of Toumpas @ 4 with Wines & Macrae rumored to be GWS pref choice at 3 & even Grundy has come into contenion at that pick if they lose Giles. If GC had #2 Toumpas would be gone, but now they dont, dees have a shot!

it has been said in another thread that Dom Barry could also be part of the Hogan trade , have you heard anything on this ?

[Jordie_tackles 354]

I have heard a rumour (supposedly from the mouth of a StKilda director) that Frawley wants to go to St Kilda. Can somebody confirm that this is rubbish please!!!

He welcomed Viney to the club with open arms today

Great news getting @jackviney12 at pick 26! What a steal! Welcome to the club big man! #toughasnails

Neeld loves his pace & rebound from defensive 50, may be added as the final piece instead of the late pick GWS has been asked to add to complete the deal.

Will know by midday tomorrow we hope!

[Demon Disciple 12,452]

My god, this trade period makes our previous 5 year's trade efforts look like Crafternoon gatherings of the local CWA.

(Mitch Clark excepted, of course)

That's what happens when you have a coach who isn't afraid to go after what he wants, as opposed to one being lead around by the nose, by an incompetent recruiting manager.

[binman 44,519]

Nudge, 3 and 13 for Hogan sounds overs even with pick 20 and/or Barry thrown in the mix. In your opinion is this related to the Viney deal?

so the deal might look like 3+13 for Hogan+20+Barry? Why Barry over someone like Jed Anderson Nudge (if you know)?

If we take Grundy at 4, Hogan at 3 and Dawes at 20 wouldn' t that result in the MFC wasting another opportunity to fix our midfield...

[Jesse Christ 2,884]

Has to be 13 to GC for Caddy.

I bet that was the sweetheart agreement with GC to pass.

They will probably announce it later so it seems like it just happened naturally. That's my bet.

[Yossarian 1,820]

Cheers for the goss, Nudge. Love these threads.

I am 100% certain we will recruit a midfielder with pick 4.

Viney and pick 4 wont be sufficient enough to turn midfield around. 3 and 13s is overs for Hogan...

Everyone seems to be forgetting a kid Neeld drafted last year, in Rory Taggert. He hits the contest hard and has a good kick on him. I reckon he might have a thing or two to do with our re-shaping midfield.

If he can get on the park...

Hopefully something like Gysberts for Wellingham is put on the table. We need outside mids.

Pick 20 have much talent in the draft? Any chance Vlastuin or Simpson will drop that far?

Think im just shattered over no Stringer or Kennedy

Our midfield is mostly still very young. Grimes, Viney, Trenners, Howe, whoever pick 4 is, Jordie, Jones, Taggert. There's a midfield there that has to be developed. I don't think it's about finding players with talent at this point, it's about sorting our sh*t out as a club.

Ah the forgotten man!! Went to a couple Casey games this year, one specifically to watch him and definitely liked what I saw anyways. He is classier than Tynan in my opinion and showed a great leg hitting team mates.

Cant recall him smashing packs but remembered some great runs (Blease like) and hitting team mates lace out.

i think 1 would get to 20 yes

[Jesse Christ 2,884]

Something doesn't seem right to me with this pick 13 business.

How sure are you that it is part of the Hogan trade? It doesn't make sense to me why GC pay less for MD1.

I'm getting a sick feeling that if pick 13 is gone, GC have it. And we have a player that doesn't want to be on our list.

Someone tell me it can't be possible.

[Yossarian 1,820]

Are you here just to make me feel sad in my life, Sloonie?

Actually drafted by the one and only Barry P.

Spot of revisionism going on on the boards.

[trout 385]

Getting Pedersen and Dawes in addition to Hogan is madness. We need midfielders - one key forward (Hogan) should be the aim with the rest spent on midfielders.

100% correct

Hogan is 17. He's an investment in the future. Dawes and Pederson are investments in the present.
