The Trade/Draft Rumour Mill

Recommended Posts

Woweeee still not on the list. Who was gonna play instead of rodan in those games he played? What an injured taggert? Tynan? Or you are a magner sympathiser? Gonna blame neeld for him too?

In your quickness to have a crack at me you failed to realise that I was not having a go at Rodan and his recruitment at all.

Should we be looking at Jurrah as a rookie?

No

We should forget about Jurrah unless he shows some serious signs of being ready to dedicate himself to AFL again and strings together some very good form in the VFL. Otherwise, no chance.

There would seem very little downside to listing him as a rookie, IF Roos assess him as having appropriate application and dedication.

first time post guys so go easy i think it is a must to trade pick 2 for adams and gws's compo pick to draft freeman and then use pick 20 on dunstan if he slides

welcome b&ritH.

I like your thinking

but is Adams available to Us? I've almost given up hope of getting this deal thru. he or his management has made no noises about whether he would come to the Dees.

Frankenstein may well turn out to be "damaged goods" and end up poisoning the young GW$ list. They are welcome to him, IMO.

Spot on Belzebubsy, the AFL caves in to pressure regarding our priority pick and yet there's always some small print available to GWS that enables them to squeeze another top liner into their team. Can you imagine the All Star line up they'll have by 2016. Sure, no one in Western Sydney will give a flying flock about them but we will be force fed a diet of what a great achievement it is.

RTG don't stir me up! According to Vlad we have an ample seam of young kids on our list, a big kid who has not played an AFL game, a father son and Jimmy T. Gee that look out Hawks! We need help, a second round priority was a minimum I thought. But no it's GWS that gets it all. They have already passed us for heaven sacks but still they get more. Scully on a squill ion and now it looks like Buddy on two squillion. Is there anything more we can do for them?

Not a bad scenario B&R Head. GWS need to reduce their list, and this effectively does that by 1 and upgrades them for a compo and and a player that was going to leave anyway. The issue is, does Adams want to become a Dee and what is his asking price? Personally, I'd also prefer Couch to Freeman. However, welcome aboard the SS Madhouse.

Stress less old fella. Jonesy will be a Dee for a long time yet - there isn't anything we'd take from Geelong for him that they'd offer up.

He is also possibly in line for the captaincy. Nate bleeds for the club, he won't be going anywhere.

Hate it, D. :P

As many thought when he first reported Paul Roos to the Dees as a done deal. .

Not saying it's going to happen, but with Bolton, Mattner, Morton and probably Mumford and White coming off the books, that would clear some space in the cap.

You are being too cryptic for me. What is the meaning of your hieroglyphics?

we got penalised for list managing last summer prior to the 2013 season. the same list managing that nearly all other clubs did as well, even if they did it more stealthily.

they way I see it, all the commissions outcomes are all done with a great deal of massaging an outcome. & virtually No public notice of the actioning.

I feel Sure we are being watched over since 12 months ago, & I feel sure some things will drop into our hands, all things being equal?

we'll have to await, & see what transpires. but I reckon/hope we will come out of things OK.

a theory, time will tell.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
