What’s GWS’s socials got to say tonight?

**** you Adelaide

Not their wittiest effort mind you.

 

[PeterSalt]

Good clip .. Cogs giving him a little attention too

 

[ams4crows]

Well I'll drink to this fabulous news!

 

[Mutineer]

Good clip .. Cogs giving him a little attention too

Came through the same junior pathway with Keiran Briggs, do we need a new ruck soon or what?

 

[RunBurgundy]

What's that feeling? Hope?

Less shame

 

[Burtonsgottago]

Rory Laird was the bloke slamming Rachele for not putting the team first.
He’s not at midfield level. I would put him and half back to play a similar roll to Zorko.

I wouldn’t play him at all. Trade while he still has some value.

 

[CrowBloke]

Have a watch!

Thanks!

Well, they're called 'highlights' for a reason, but I saw enough to want
IN: Peatling
OUT: Murphy

At least one has highlights

 

[CrowBloke]

And apparently Clayton Oliver is available again.

Geelong will find a spot for him ...
...
... and jobs for all of his extended family and a few mates.

Sounds to me like he wants a farm like the others

Laird has no value.

Yeh, made up of the triangle formed by Geelong/Great Otway National Park/ Warrnambool/ Geelong,
including
The Great Ocean Road.

 

[AFC979810]

agree
Hinge is on the precipice of AA Squad level imo

Lets pump the breaks.

Hinge is great for us. But he aint anywhere near AA level.

Hinge's 2024 was seriously down on his 2023 form which is understandable. In 2023 he was able to get off the chain a little bit because we had Milera having a great season and Smith (whilst declining) hadn't fallen off the cliff yet.

In 2024 - he lost Milera to injury and a combination of Smith falling off and Hamill being shite was terrible as we didnt have a second rebounding defender.

Cumming / Hinge should be a bloody fantastic partnership and they should help each other considerably.

He is definitely capable. Just needs to find consistency. But at the same time we were getting swamped in defense by our poor game plan and if you have an obsession to control the ball then players wont run off and create, its just a chip and catch exercise to the closest free player. This would have hampered someone like Hinge's form.

 

[Drummond]

Wowww.

Peatling is good, I rate him. Not the best ball user, can turn it over, but his defensive work is brilliant, elite. Tackling, pressuring, work-rate, all excellent. Can kick a goal, can find the footy, works both ways. Big tick!

 

[AFC979810]

We should have just taken him over Patty Parnell in the 2021 mid-season draft.

Nah Moyle, given he’s the one that chose to re-sign

Ha ha ha.

In all seriousness though -GWS would be filthy. Developed this kid for 3 and a half years.

In the backend of 2024 does enough to displace 30 year olds Coniglio and Kelly for the key midfield spots and would be there 3rd or 4th best midfielder in 2025.

Isnt given enough time to truly showcase his talents in the midfield and has zero draft capital - so the price wont be crazy high.

Will be a far more impactful recruit than ANB & Cumming IMO.

The caveat on this is there are probably "game state" effects - easy clearances in junk time, or easier clearances as the sub when everyone else is buggered. But it's still very promising. Think he could be our long-term Crouch replacement.

 

[Cromulant]

Laird has no value.

I know we are all bashing Laird, myself included.... but to say he's got no value is pretty laughable.

If we decided we would like to trade him he'll have plenty of suitors.

But sadly, we won't do that.

LAIRD HAS NO VALUE.

There’s nothing laughable about it.

He is a terrible footballer and a selfish flog of a team mate.

Its astounding people still cant see it.

I can see it, but you're saying if we offered him up for a trade that no one would take him ??

Now THAT is laughable.
