Surely not.......

Only connection I can put is the Simon Goodwin relationship having been joint partners of the Alma Hotel in Adelaide....

I imagine there are connections with other clubs, too. For example, Walker and Dangerfield were teammates for a long time. Dare I say, Walker also fits Geelong's age profile, too. 

Nevertheless, if the story has any basis in truth at all, I could see Sydney needing a replacement for Buddy.

While I doubt it's us, he would add potency in an area where we  can appear to need new options... i.e. tall forward. And on his day is a genuine gun.

Lol. I love a posting click bait threads but even I wouldn't post this. 😜

PS: Not accusing you of click baiting just that there is no way we are in any way connected to this.

Surely Tex could not leave the Crows given the song and dance he did about loyalty when Lever left them.

I hope he does leave so I can pay him out even more for being an absolute hypocrite.

Would have to be Freo IMO. Or Sydney if Buddy has indicated he's retiring at years end.

Is Sydney really considered a premiership contending team?

Could easily be Pies or Tiges as well. They think they are close.

He is about 30 isn't he ? It would have to be geelong.

Sydney

Geelong Polo Club

Edit: dl4e is right. It has to be Geelong based on selecting for over 30s.

Can't see them adding Walker to a forward line with Cameron and Hawkins.

I normally would say getting a tall forward capable of kicking 60 goals plus in a year would be a good idea since Tomald and BBB have both ticked over 30. I would have reservations about one who is 32. But I would draw a line in the sand with Tex.

I vehemently disagreed with voices that equated the very rightful condemnation of what he said with some type of unjust public stoning at the time him making racial slurs were revealed. That said, I think that the sheep like booing of Walker when he touches the ball is mindless and unproductive. He served his sentence, nearly lost his career and has to live with the fact that he said something reprehensible about a young man just wanting to play football. It's his time now to be better and I'm not sure this helps.

That said, as a club who has been sensational on reconciliation and reaching out to the indigenous community, I'm not sure this would send a particularly good message. I am all for rehabilitation and redemption, but I don't think him coming to us so soon after the fact would be good for club harmony nor image. 

Plus, I wonder how Jake Lever would feel with Tex in the locker room? They claim they are over it, but in light of how the story unfolded, I'd be pretty annoyed if I were Rick.

Bulldogs maybe? They desperately need someone to help Naughton, depends how Bruce's knee is....no way it would be us....surely??

Carlton or Brisbane with an outside chance of North

Wont be the Lions with their 3 tall forwards.

Don't think Blues either with their 3 tall forwards.

Can't see it being us, with LJ and Gus to re-contract and Weid and JVR outside the best 22 atm.

I think the Dogs, Swans, Dockers and Cats, if Hawkins has indicated he is retiring, are the main chances, if it is indeed true.

If i was picking one, I would say the Dogs have the biggest need.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
