Travis Colyer

[Dee1987 277]

Been reported and some talk the we are keeping a close eye on him? Swap with Dom Tyson??

[Engorged Onion 10,215]

We're getting some fairly bogan names - Travis, Brayden.... doesn't suit the image...or perhaps we're changing the image

[DemonLad5 1,642]

No way we’d do a straight swap for Tyson. Colyer is 27

[Guest]

He has some toe but isn't he a crumber?

[Bring-Back-Powell 14,790]

Didn't we want to trade pick 2 for him back in 2013/2014? Him and David Myers off memory.

[Dr.D 1,771]

colyer is a line breaker. id take him in a heartbeat

[Dee Zephyr 19,267]

Has only managed a full season once in his 8 seasons with 22 games played in 2017 and hasn’t played more than 12 in the other 7. I’m not sure he would offer more than what we already have. 

I’d rather put some more development into Hunt and Stretch as ‘Line Breakers’ as they have age on their side.

Agree but doesn't hurt as depth in that department and Hunt and Stretch have been injured a bit

hello dean kent

[DeeSpencer 25,522]

No player was more disrupted by the drugs stuff, he was on the verge of breaking out, hurt his foot then had to miss the whole year.

He'd want to be cheap and maybe only a 1 year deal but I'd certainly take him.

Colyer is one I wanted us to recruit around the $cully years.  A good run & carry player through the corridor.

I can't remember exactly which draft, if it was $cully draft or next. 

# edit:  I just went back to check that draft... and I also wanted us to grab Daniel Talia big-time,,, in this draft... then I noticed who we took 2 places earlier than Talia...  arghh.... we took Gysberts.

I would prefer Colyer to $ulky, every day of any week.

Winger/Half-forward, linkup player, ball carrier.

I think those biases are shining through. 

Scully is 10 times the player Colyer is.

Yes he would, and when young Farmer comes available to us,,, he will need some development time at Casey.

Colyer fits our timeline.

Look at the players we've delisted, they are the ones we are replacing.

... ready made 'run and carry', are top of my list at least.

[Wiseblood 24,637]

Meh.

Is he any better than Kent?  AVB?  JKH?  Probably not.  If the FD see something in him and can get him super cheap then I guess you can't have too many complaints, but the bloke doesn't do a whole lot for me.

[whatwhat say what 22,712]

my bombers mate says 'take him...take him NOW'

she thinks he's one of the biggest butchers in their side, and that's when he gets it more than 15 times a game, which is basically never

suffice to say, not all peptiders rate him

I would not let $cully back into this club.  We don't need him.  &   I for one, don't want him.

There's plenty more smelly fish around.

They also didn’t rate Melksham

[spirit of norm smith 16,329]

No. Nudda. Nein 

[Adzman 2,154]

He would be a depth player much like he is at Essendon.

 

[chook fowler 19,447]

Tyson reportedly going to the Peptides - ? a direct swab. Trading One boomerang boot for another 

[Philthy 284]

Fumble king....it's a no from me.

[Ash35 425]

Can get the fumbles, and can butcher it a bit.

But has real pace and knows where the goals are.

Would give you more than the likes of Stretch and Kent.

Probably needs a change of club to get the best out of him, a la Melksham
