    Someone just posted on Jordan Lewis topic that ....Jordan Lewis will be playing for dees in 2017, Rockliff  is 90% sorted /over the line and with genuine sad news  (that added by me ) Chris Dawes will be delisted tomorrow/announced. However my suspicion is he will be offered a rookie spot.  No way the club would simply give him the flick so easily me thinks some kind of role?

    As good a bloke as Chris is.... His body is broken and is only being weighed down more by the wallet that we filled...

    Thanks for your efforts

    The Riddler never sleeps. However the Riddler will only provide one more clue before trade period re-opens tomorrow: the player is from interstate. 

    Has his name been mentioned yet??

    We're a serious football club off the field these days and I love it. It won't be long before we're a serious club onfield too. Hopefully starting next year.

    The external pressure will increase dramatically if we do manage to snag the 3 names we are mentioning most...

    As would the internal pressure I would assume...

    When I heard the breaking news of Lewis On Trade radio I came straight to this page and the rumour had already been talked about for 5 hours by then.

    Rumours seem to start here first and most of the time they end up being true. 

    One of the loosest things I have ever read :)

  5. Just wondering how people would react if out of the 3 names we keep talking (Lewis, Rockliff & Hibberd)

    That we got none of them and went in with our current draft picks...

    I am not sure if DL is ready for such a thing....

    In the post? DemonLad said he forwarded a message from the source however never told us what he said 

    he then forwarded me a message that supposedly was from his sources

    Zanotti: I read it as this IS the message from his source, telling him not to release earlier for his FB pages sake ---> Just don't release the info until maybe tomorrow morning? Because although Lewis is 100%, Rocky is about 99.99%. I think for the pages sake, wait until tomorrow when rumours start flying around.
    But in the end, you're call!

     

    I could be wrong though.... Not uncommon

    Mind boggles....happily....but boggles.

    seriously wtf...  left field , outfileld , next door and over the fence. 

    I thought we were just getting Hibberd !!!

     

    2017 with a real footy team....not sure if ready for this........I need a drink

    I too am suffering a touch of shock at the moment...

    If this happens then unless the football gods cruel us with injury I may have to book some holidays in September :o

  8. Which player spreads both butter and his wings, yet remains ocean-bound?

    Spreads butter and has wings.... 

    Ocean bound.... Anchor our midfield? or future captain of our ship?

    OK... Thinking out loud....

    Flying knife...

    Fyfe...

    Clint has it I reckon....

    For what it's worth, I've been told by someone who has been told someone that Rockliff will be a Melbourne player tomorrow. 

    The original source (not my contact) is parent of a current Melbourne player. Not sure how they would necessarily know but better than Judd's grandma.

    Jordan Lewis' parents already getting involved.... I like it! :cool:

    Riddle me this: Which player spreads both butter and his wings, yet remains ocean-bound?

    On a Sunday evening..... Are you serious?  I need to refresh my mind before another week at the grind stone... I can't sleep as it is...

    Boo Riddler.... Boo....

  11. I have never bounced between threads on DL so often as I have in the last 7 days...

    The thought of having a midfield that possibly consists of 

    • Jones
    • Viney
    • Tyson
    • Lewis
    • Rockliff

    With the below rotating through

    • Vince
    • Oliver
    • Petracca
    • Brayshaw

    Gives me goosebumps!!!

    If this scenario eventuates I will be a happy man... and I am sure I will not be alone in this feeling of joy

    let's not forget that against the Dogs he did his shoulder in the first 15 mins, said on 360 it impacted him throughout the game.  I was at the Cats game and he was clearly BOG.  It's his leadership and premiership experience that will be so invaluable for this team...I reckon our kids will stand taller with him there.  

    You've hit the nail on the head mate! I've seriously disliked the bloke for years but the reason is obvious... He's been a star in a seriously successful outfit and is a 'one in all in' player who gives 100% effort at every contest... Not that long ago the Hawks lacked hardness and leadership whenever he was out of the side... This trade can only end up good for our blossoming bunch of hard nut midfielders!
