The Trade/Draft Rumour Mill

[rjay 25,362]

It's not a quick fix, it's stabilizing the list. We grab a couple of guys in their late twenties to fill the experience gaps that have been there for years and then aim younger. We need a more balanced list, this has been obvious for years.

Depends on the price, a player like Montagna won't come cheap and that's not for us. Some of our list is now moving into the over 25's anyway so age wise the list is balancing out. We missed top picks with GC and GWS coming in and there will be a hole in the younger talent unless we can recruit a Swallow or Adams if not we need to get into this draft and develop the ones we get along with Viney, Hogan, Toumpas and Barry.

Amjust going to say no!

[the fork 357]

No haven't seen it. Will have a look. Thx

Better still maybe your "client" read it on Demonland. Ha!

[Demoneyes 562]

Always that possibility!

free agents will do that, without coughing up picks that will help build our opponents.

only giveup picks for players who will give us a potential minimum of 5years

[Demoneyes 562]

We have numerous young guys. PRoos will be trying to in both young and experienced in an ideal mix. Look forward to sunnier times D'landers

U a bit bored tonight Demoneyes as u have posted on every thread?

Must be a record I reckon.

Yep, agree with you on this.

This dude Tom Ledger has been delisted by saints.

Anyone know anything about him? Is he worth a go?

[ChaserJ 5,189]

Heath's cousin, can find the ball, but lacks footspeed. Surprised he didn't get more of an opportunity at st Kilda. I know a few saints fans who weren't happy he wasn't in the team.

[TheoX 1,222]

Sounds like a Tom Couch type. No thanks.

NO

[Dockett 32 1,239]

I heard a rumour yesterday that montagna is linked with Dees.

To be honest not sure how I'd feel about this. I suppose if it was for a 2nd round pick it'd be ok.

Turn it up! What's this another one for the MFC retirement home. No thanks

Only in the accounts department...

[Demoneyes 562]

Couldn't have come up with a worse dad's joke myself!

[Ted Lasso 19,568]

Not a rumour but my god I would love if we got our hands on Nat Fyfe, I reckon i'd prefer him to any other player in the comp besides Gary Ablett to be honest.

Fyfe is an absolute jet, totally untouchable right now.

And I want a toilet made out of solid gold but it's just not in the cards now is it?

Rumours people, rumours.

Dustin Martin to re-sign because no one wants to give up anything to get him. That is the only rumour I have heard outside of this site. Auf wiedersehn.

The only reason you would want Fyfe is to double your chance for 'mark of the round'! His three early set shots for goal yesterday for a return of 1 point cost Freo the game yesterdayand certainly gave Hawthorn the momentum. No thanks.

[Robbie57 2,041]

Are you suggesting that the two out of bounds on the full by Fyfe followed by a point from three gettable set shots early in the game might not have altered the outcome for Freo? I cannot see that observation is any where near as moronic as bringing back Bennell.

because up to that point he was about 90% on set shots over the season and despite those kicks was with Mundy their best player on the day.

[Whispering_Jack 31,308]

Cut it out with the abuse please folks.

Well apparently not. Just announced in the Sunday Footy show that Fyfe rumoured to be on the table. GWS willing to offer pick 1.

Virtually Fyfe for Boyd.

Nice carrot, GWS.

[the fork 357]

Nice carrot indeed.

Also mentioned that Freo is still in the mix for Buddy. Could Fyfe also be part of the deal here? Perhaps given his rumoured desire to return to Victoria this would be a more likely outcome. Freo would surely prefer a ready made Franklin rather than a young Boyd.

Fyfe is a W.A. boy?
