People losing their mind over May talking to Gawn, will just LOVE all the harmony that JUH will bring to the club.

Absolutely not!

There’s still a small part of me that thinks Hogan is a chance to come back and finish out his career with us. Maybe it’s just false hope.

I think it's a false hope unfortunately. He'd be brilliant.

Earlier this year I would've said 100% no to JUH, however the more I think about it if he needed a fresh start and the deal was right maybe we take the punt.

Obviously it could backfire badly, but imagine if it came off. He could propel us to multiple flags, that's how talented he is.

I think so too. We've been crying out for a gun KPF. Well, here's our shot.

The other thing were he to nominate us, we can go to someone like Bergman and say 'look we've got a gun key forward coming, we've got Clarry, Trac and Kozzy in the middle., we are in it to win flags'

His wage is the sticking point. Depends how much the Dogs would be willing to pay.

Agree. It may be nothing or maybe if the relationship is untenable we give up a first rounder and they cover 20% or something.

I'm sure that can be worked out.

i'm not sure having jamarra and clarry together is a good idea.

We could get Hunter and Dunstan back as well. Imagine the parties!

I think his salary will be too high if they're only covering 20%. We'd need them to cover upward of 50%+, I reckon.

Melbourne can back right off him thank you very much.

Come back to Fish Creek Sam 👍

Are people serious about referring to JUH as a "gun" KPF"!0

Flanders is an excellent inside mid being wasted at half forward, would be smart for a club to try and drag him out whilst Suns continue to bring in first round academy talent every year

Ah thanks. I presumed it was a GCS supporters' page. Won't delete it as people have replied, but could well be just clickbait with nothing behind it. My bad.

Highly likely it's a troll post BUT it wouldn't surprise me if Flanders actually did look elsewhere to grab a midfield role

Don't shoot the messenger here but while we could give it our best shot, it could backfire badly.

Assume your taking the p 1 5 5 out of me with that post?

It absolutely could backfire badly.... but could also be amazing, not sure how hard that is to understand?

And again, this was said by Billy Brownless I'm not making stuff up and I'd like to think I have a decent rep on here for that.

Your reputation is sound. Of course it’ll be in tatters if Jamarra isn’t in red and blue next year.

The only reason I think it could work is to do with one man, Matt Whelan

He is the best indigenous support worker in the game and we have him at our club. If anyone can support these young guys to get the best out of themselves it is him.

Sam Flanders signed a four-year contract extension tying him to the Suns until the end of 2027.

But the Suns have three more young mids coming through their academy and I’m sure the Suns will be squeezed in the salary cap with Rowell wanting $1m+ per year.

He’s a good ball user and would be welcomed with open arms. But not sure we have the cap, the draft capital or players to trade to make it work.

For what it’s worth Tom Morris is now reporting that there is a watch on Sam Flanders in the second half of this year:
