Just hear that on SEN too Tappy?

For those that didn't hear it, there is gap between what was said on SEN and what Tappy has mentioned.  To add to the story, it was a caller that made the claims.

Take out of it whatever you please.  I know I'll be taking the grain of salt.

Heard it there, but it continues to mentioned all over the place, always being tied to Sydney. I bloody hope not, but it always seems to end up the player leaving when they won't sign on. And I heard Melbourne had a good offer on the table and he wasn't interested. I'm not listening to a random SEN caller, but generally when there's a shitloood of smoke, there's fire

I can confirm, I have today been told by a reliable source within the club prior to the match that Tom has indicated he will sign on to stay within the next month. Finer details still to be worked out

I think I might speak for the silent majority who just can't be bothered answering every negative comment about Tom (and Oscar) but I'll post here every now and again for balance. Tom is a terrif

Can't believe those who are sitting on the fence with this. He's 22 (?) years old and has already done jobs on some of the best forwards in the game. Is a running machi

Brian Waldron teed off on a lot of rumours, Tom Mitchell to Hawks, Bulldogs into Hurley big time and Hibberd keen to join Melbourne and wants out. He stated that he didn't know anything about McDonald, it was Chris, a regular caller and D's fan who bought up the topic of McDonald to Sydney and then it grew from there.

 

 

Chris from Camberwell, I'm a big fan of his work.

Wasn't the same woman who said Buddy to Sydney and was laughed at was it?

I've been to a few Swans games this year and have been unable to buy an Aliir Aliir player badge (my Queensland based friend wants one for his son) they keep telling me they've sold out....What makes Tmac think he'll be any different.

 

What I would love to happen but never will is for someone to hit him up in front of the group at training, Yes it's his right to ask to be traded but it's also his right to man, it's not like we're challenging.

Is telling Watts to play next to him on a wing crazy? I guess with nobody to play forward that would be an issue but Watts is capable of going with him... If there is any player Watts should be trying to be like it is Nick... I think jack could punish him on the rebound too.

Wasn't Roosy saying after the port game they would have liked to play Watts on Westhoff when he was on the wing running a muck. Maybe they will have that in mind this week?

Frankly I don't think that there is anybody "Watts should be trying to be like"! There are plenty of others not doing their current job as consistently or as polished as Jack. Leave him in his current role and let the Saints instead worry about how they are going to try and stop him.

If anyone should go with NR, I would like to see Hunt who didn't play last time Nick gave us an absolute bath. We will have a different looking team this weekend and I am sure that Roos and Goodwin will plan accordingly.

I bet he does. Asks about 9 long winded questions and then tells us he and his mates are no longer going to contribute financially...

And then they go to an ad break....

Thought I recalled a Chris from camberwell thread from last year. Just looked back over it and it is very entertaining. I think it says it all.

He's definitely a character but we can't fault his passion.

If it was Chris from Camberwell I wouldn't be too concerned.

Once again, talk about Chinese whispers...

Yes, it was Chris from Camberwell, but it wasn't him talking up the rumour, it was Brian Waldron after a caller made the claim and Chris was merely expressing his concern.

The way it's been posted you'd think the rumour emanated from Chris.  It didn't.  He rang up expressing his confidence that Prestia was over the line, because he'd heard it from inside the club.  Although I'm not convinced how keen the club now is.

Can people listen to the radio or tv and actually remember what they heard and the sequence of how they heard it ?

Would be surprised they would be able to  fit  a 'high priced' Tmac in salary cap with Buddy , Tippett ? . Would think something would have to give.

 How much will Dawes and Grimes free up....if their contract was front loaded where the f##k is the money going?

    THE CAVALRY ARRIVES by Megg

    The injury plague which has beset the Demons 2024 campaign is finally starting to dissipate and with consecutive wins over GWS Giants and a 2-point nail-biter in Adelade, a sense of optimism is rising.  Some commentators are now asking whether the Dees can make finals? A huge surprise with team selection this week when it was announced that champs Olivia Purcell, Paxy Paxman and Eden Zanker would play.   Hallelujah!  The cavalry has arrived. St Kilda missed the finals last season on pe

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.
