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.

    Carlton?

    Freo

    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.

    I hope Lever gives him a public serve and tells the [censored] he's taking money over success.

    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.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
