The Trade/Draft Rumour Mill - 2014

[Chelly 827]

After reading the comings and goings on the Paddy Dangerfield thread I realise that we're missing something.

This thread is for off beat trade and draft rumours, not the ones that have been endorsed as possible by members of the journalistic profession but by normal, everyday people, like the local barber or your cousin from Ballarat.

You know, really authoritative stuff from posters like Nudge and Chilliboy who are right there at the coal face.

Anyone like to kick things off?

[Yossarian 1,820]

Whatever Satan.

[Gorgoroth 13,016]

I see what you did there yoss!

[Little Goffy 14,636]

I hear Paddy Ryderfield was going to be traded to St Brisbane for Mitch Lumumba.

Adelaide is keen to acquire Mitch Robinson, but not willing to pay much. They say they are happy to offer their late draft pick for Carlton's late daft [censored].

[Whispering_Jack 30,580]

This is how Nudge and Chilliboy would do it -

Here's what I've heard, and make of it what you will...

Sensational news from Visy Park where Carlton is believed to be prepared to trade Bryce Gibbs who has had a falling out with the club. My information comes from the Blues' bootstudder who sat next to me on the train home last night. The club's new CEO is fielding an offer for from Melbourne which is prepared to offload three former top 20 draft picks in Sam Blease, James Strauss and Luke Tapscott who have all asked for a trade and a fourth rounder to seal the deal.

The Demons have also enquired with the Hawks about the possibility of bringing utility Kyle Cheney back to the fold in exchange for small forward Shannon Byrnes who this week announced he has reconsidered the decision he made earlier this season to retire. Hawthorn is looking for insurance to cover for injury prone Cyril Rioli in the event that his hamstring issues continue to bubble over into 2015.

[Tough Kent 2,137]

So the Hawks bring in Ro Bail as cover for Cyril. Like for like. We get what in return? A 1st rounder?

[Demoneyes 562]

I think your tugging it there a bit WJ but will certainly get the discussion going!

Can anyone tell me where I can see who has 12 months left on contract at the Dees. This isn't so much rumour but I have been told that those that don't sign extension before trade period (ie: the required players) will be traded.

Why are we talking about Nudge and Chiliboy as if they are two different people?

Why are we talking about Nudge and Chiliboy as if they are two different people?

The need to cater for both of their split personalities?

:blink: ........ noooooooooooo...... surely not.

Was this guy pulling your leg?

Anyway thanks for sharing Jack, I certainly hope your proposed Gibbs rumour warrants some truth - I along with every demonlander would do that deal in a heartbeat.

I believe your leg has been pulled. That is all part of the fun of this thread. WJ is a cheeky boy

[The Great One 99 125]

Boot shudders don't lie. And there was a train last night, so it must be true.

facepalm

Obviously you weren't around when Nudge was posting about 20 different trade possibilities a day.

Still, he didn't even measure up to the lofty standards of Chilliboy...............by god those were the days! #Demonland of old # where are they now?

[Gorgoroth 13,016]

Nudge and Chilliboy were the same person I believe.

[olisik 4,060]

Hellsgate!!

Shurely Yze Magic deserves a mention amongst the hallowed named mooted above.

Hahahaa... I didn't believe it, I just didn't want to come across as a smart a**.

Yes I was, although I didn't see him under the alias as Chilliboy, I came a little later when he was under Nudge. I believe they were his last two trade periods being 2011 & 2012.

Strauss for Dangerfield

[AzzKikA 2,371]

I actually heard from an unreliable source that Robbie Gray is looking to leave Port.

Three crap players for a guy that can play (soft as butter on a summer's day, but can play).

That's the dream every October - maybe without the soft bit.

Strauss for Dangerfield

You sure we're not paying overs?

[John Dee 445]

Dunno about Nudge, but I miss Chilliboy!; He was always good for a laugh.
