This is the best thread of the period yet. Quote

Preuss was recruited as a back up for Gawn, with the understanding he'd learn from the best in the game and maybe take over from him in a few years. Perhaps get a few games with or without Gawn in the mean time. Not sure i'd call that a failure 12 mths down the track I'm not sure that is why he ewas recruited. My sense is that ideally he play as a forward - and pinch hitting to give Maxy a chop out. He does not look like he is going to be a forward option. If it was to play at casey for a few years and be back up for maxy,well sure that isn't a failure. But i'm pretty sure all concerned had grander plans than that. Quote

My best guess is either Tim O'Brien or Gunston. Jon Patton comes in so they will definitely be moving on a key forward and I assume are moving some $$ away to make a run in at Whitfield or Cameron next year. Nothing has been said about Frost's move to the Hawks since it was first reported, and I reckon us trying to grab one of those two might be the sticking point between that deal getting done. 2 Quote
Demonstone 23,600 Posted October 10, 2019 Posted October 10, 2019 Yoko used the phases "excited by" and "not a battler". That would rule out Tim O'Brien I reckon. 3 Quote

Yokozuna 1,004 Posted October 10, 2019 Posted October 10, 2019 Apologies, but I was nervous about giving too much info and ruining the trust of my source. So, you can rule in ANYONE mentioned in this thread, wether they have been ruled out by me or others or not. Last post on this, I will leave you all to muse on it until I am allowed more, or the players name actually comes out. 1 Quote

Superunknown 4,246 Posted October 10, 2019 Posted October 10, 2019 I reckon Gunston definitely thread of the trade period especially lace out’s contribution . Champagne comedy Quote
FireInTheBennelly 4,104 Posted October 10, 2019 Posted October 10, 2019 (edited) It was also said not from Collingwood I believe? I got the impression from one of Yoko's posts that it was actually a small, not a tall. Am I alone in that assumption? As per Yoko's post #191 " I will ease your minds and say it isn’t Cox or anyone from that club! " So all Pies players can come off the possibles list.

I also posted that was it wrong to assume if it is a key forward but in the Elliot mould not necessarily a tall. So I got that impression as well. Saints need to clear cap space but it aint Membrey so I thought Billings. 2 Quote
