Travis Boots

Wants out is what ive heard

Given his destructive recreational habits and how willing we were to show the door, im finding it really cringeworthy to see several of you foaming at the mouth wanting us to bring him back.

??‍♂️ maybe they have? But that could also be deflection give their “current” cap issues. If they would have confirmed interest imagine how much the de goey talk would amplify etc

Brown

Was told he has agreed to move to collingwood on a 4 year deal a couple of weeks back. Source is in industry and is a sponsor of one of their best players and has a good network with others in the industry. I dismissed iit given the cap issues they have with their ooc players but now with the talk of shipping out treloar im thinking a decent chunk of that would be for this

My mail is he was unhappy with medico staff (dont know if this is related to burgess or others and over what exactly). No talk of him wanting to leave. (2nd hand info from a friend who knows a player)

Wow, my friend knows someone very high up at the pies and this is could turn out to be a horrible appointment

If Lewis hadnt of come across then it would have been a yes from me but definetely not now. Similar sentiments to previous posts, we've got enough inside mids and need to put games into the youngsters. Another 29 year old on top of a 30 year old will hinder us just as were entering our "premiership window".

Slow down there buddy. We might even get away with giving up our 4th round pick and at most our 3rd for lewis

Not at all, OX said he has been told we are livid with the hawks for reneging

Wallet was just on SEN with the story of how it all transpired, suggested he was pushed to leave rather than been given the chance to explore his options should he wish. I think he will still become a Dee, it sounds (imo) as if the relationship is unrepairable

Young talented kpf who has only recently got into afl after playing basketball. Lot to work on apparently how could have a very high upside

Concerning quote from his manager. First time theres been any acknowledgement that going home is a possibility

Going to have to buy tickets from ticketmaster resale site. $120 each!!! What a rort

Whos to say it wasnt true and that it just didnt eventuate? Deals fall through at the last minute all the time

Tis true, someone from melb has confirmed this to me.....BUT.....its the reason why they DONT want him to go back home, especially his mum. This is why i think he'll wait to see if there is a reduction on the years for free agency before he commits to length rather than it being about money. Thats not to say he wont be here for even longer past the next contract. Dont be surprised if its only a 2 year extension if free agency is reduced to 6 years, ill happily take that, if were not a top 4 team in 3 years then i wouldnt blame him leaving

Fairly confident hes waiting to see if free agency is reduced to 6 or 7 years and will commit up until this point. thats not to say that he would definetely leave at the end of it especially if were genuine contenders

Doubt we'll get more than 60-63k. Collingwood fans wont show.

Really want this to happen. He's a great kick and this is one of our biggest issues out of the backline

He was TERRIBLE!!!!! still young and needs a lot of time at Casey, nowhere near AFL standard.........yet

Really worried about his long term playing future. 3 concussions in such a short period of time does not bode well especially given 2 of those were in the opening contest. I really think he needs to be put in cotton wool for the remainder of the season with no contact work until pre season. There is an argument that it can take 9-12 months to recover (somewhat) from repeat concussions

Haha, i think we may know the same person

Been told this as well but that his family want him to stay in melbourne

Spoke to the Ox and he reckons its not true from what hes heard

Would love a whitfield or josh kelly type. That along with a good kpd would round us off nicely
