2014 Free Agency Players

[Cleric]

Seriously? It was announced at last years B&F he re-signed until end of 2016, so where do you get your info North are worried?

I was repeating what i was told last year before their b and f. Okay, nothing to see hear now. Norf were smart to sign him a year before he was out of contract and a free agent. Infact they signed an extention 12 months after they signed their last 2 year extension. Norf were worried about him, but were good enough to put him away. Carry on lol

Isn't siggins meant to have a bit of run and attack in him? I seem to recall his draft highlights showed a bit of that but he is obviously not quite there yet

Siggins is way to skinny to play KPD in the AFL. He won't play this year but it should be interesting to see how he goes in the magoos where we'll all get an idea how good his rebound is

You're repeating in February something you claim to have been told in October last year and calling it current?

 

[Draft Bored]

I reckon Cleric might be Rowie

Haha, made me lol.

Also, how do you tag people with more than 1 word in their name?

Bump! I've wanted to know that for a while.

 

[spenze]

Bloody useless Crows for not targeting Thomas earlier, that's what happens when we sit on our hands...again

Pretty much......but to be fair i did say it then as well.

For future reference I think we'd all like to know it was dated information

I just type in their name

So like @ sign and then the full name? As soon as i do a space it disappears.

Are you doing on PC, or phone? Cos on the PC it remains; from memory, on Tapatalk, it disappears, but the linkage still happens.

PC.
Maybe if I just type in the name i'd be alright, but the dropdown list disappears as soon as i hit space.

Agreed, PC using Firefox. It disappears for me and doesn't link.... wait a second... it looks like it's been fixed with the latest upgrade!

Testing... 1, 2, 3

EDIT: Yep works with the drop down now AND if you just type it without selecting anything from the dropdown.

I'd be happy to pay Gibbs $700K p/a over 5 years (he might take $650K for that length). Salary cap goes up each year and we must still have spare cap space from the Tippett fiasco.

Dangerfield, Sloane et al will know (cos we'll tell them) that they'll receive pay increases in their next deals.

Gibbs IS exactly the type of player our midfield needs and you have to pay overs to land a free agent.

It's ok to say 'we should target a younger player' or whatever but we'd have to trade (possibly handsomely) to get them.

The MASSIVE benefit of landing a free agent is that you don't have to give up anything except salary cap space. This is incredibly valuable in building a list.

Frawley is quality but doesn't give a whole lot of drive from defence for such a highly rated player; he's on par with Jamieson.

 

[GROTTO]

We need a bloody back up ruckman.

Why couldnt Rehn have been born later in life or pathetic Pittman or Bighlands. :-(

 

[mattymac]

Yep Gibbs would be massive for us. We don't bottom feed for picks as a club so FA really is our optimal route to build a quality list. We would light it up in a couple years with a midfield of Danger, Sloane, Gibbs, the Crouch brothers, Grigg, Smith and Aish

Dream on.

Sam Jacobs for pick #1?

 

[1990crow]

Sam Jacobs for pick #1?

I think he's just getting frustrated that his club keeps drafting SA players.
Betts, Jacobs, Gibbs. Who should we go for after? Menzel?

 

[GROTTO]

We may even offer Gibbs a longer contract but lesser amount? Do a kinbd of Buddy deal on him??

I doubt it

 

[simmo97]

if we go after Gibbs we will most likely offer him a 4 year deal with his salary probably to be front ended to save more of the pie
for key players like Dangerfield, Sloane, Talia etc

 

[The Sloane Ranger]

The Sloane Ranger

What ?

 

[GROTTO]

I think it is going to take something from left field to snag him. I wouldnt want the Club to pay overs and then lose someone from our Top 5or 6 untouchables at the Club.

Oh and no more Kurt Tippett deals lol.
