List Mgmt. 2015 Trade, Free agency and draft rumours

[MrPremiership]

I think all this stuff is just a smoke screen. The club doesn't usually get much media attention about blokes they're trying to sign.

Didn't think anyone was really talking about us into Hale/Gibbo
Ditto McEvoy
Ditto Silk
Frawley talk was all about putting him into a Geelong jumper
Gunston chat was very late.
Lake probably the exception

I suspect that the Hawks target isnt going to be somewhere the media are aware of.

Correct...it's just another guess by Barrett.
He's thrown enough darts that he's bound to land one somewhere in the same ball park one day.
Laughed when he had Robbie Tarrant all but coming to us and then saw him re-sign with the Kangas the next week.

Riewoldt's reaction goes to show just how sceptical some players/clubs are of other teams pay structures. Not everyone plays for the same dollars you do Saint Nick....some are more interested in team success and make sacrifices for the benefit of their team/club!
There's a salary cap in place for a reason sunshine....it's up to the club how they spend it. Clearly our club does it better than yours, and every other club in the league I might add!

Our club is all about the four pillars: Endurance, Courage, Mateship, "Sacrifice"

From a month or two ago: http://www.independent.ie/sport/gae...-kick-derry-to-provincial-final-31336508.htmlI don't know if there is actually anything confirmed, but there's a few articles about us flying him and his family out here.

I've heard the club also has plans to buddy him up with Sam Grimley, to help him settle into club and aussie life. They've even bought Conor a house as a sweetener to his sign-on deal. There's a few house rules though. One being, "no wrestling!".

Something about..... not throwing Stones in Glass houses...




Sorry.

from the afl website article on carlisle:
The Brisbane Lions, Western Bulldogs, Geelong, Carlton, North Melbourne, Fremantle, St Kilda and Hawthorn are among the clubs believed to be actively in the market for a key defender this year.
Why would this be? Are they thinking a replacement for Gibbo? Getting a gig in the backline is hard enough at the Hawks let alone getting another defender

I'd say more about the premiership medals than mateship..

Again, if they throw enough darts they are likely to get one in the same ball park one day!
If Carlisle ends up at one of those clubs they're first article about it would start something like "as report in August Jake Carlisle has requested a trade to...."

New information regarding Suckling that I've heard is that he is communicating with the Hawks but he has a massive 4 year offer from Gold Coast, and it is one the Hawks can't/won't match. It's all down to what he wants now, money or success.

 

[Great 2008]

I'm going early on the Bennell bandwagon. Good kick off both feet.

Is it enough for an end of first round pick ? If so I think it's a win for all three parties

 

[dipper86]

Bennell at Hawthorn........Croady's back in business.
Low blow.

What happened to Brisbane? Word is they offered $400k over 4 years.

 

[Thaihawk]

I just have a feeling that with the massive increase in money available for players from 2017, we have a big fish in our sights. I'm not sure we'd take another risk like last year, so Bennell is probably on the outer.

So, who is it?

 

[Buddy Guy]

Lets not underestimate how huge it would be for us to land Harley Bennell.
He is already a rolled gold jet and at Hawthorn would be a SUPER STAR of the competition.

 

[Big A]

Iirc Frawley was linked to us as early as March last year. As such, shows 1 in a mil do actually come to fruition and maybe one of all the ones we are being linked to might eventuate.

Ok so Suckers and WX and 2 x first rounders for JOM + Rory Thompson? Am i doing this right?

 

[phreeze77]

Jed Anderson hasn't re-signed yet and I am worried by the lack of opportunity and not even getting a look in as an emergency.

 

[Big A]

Theres no way Jed and Billy are going anywhere

 

[Wundo]

Something up the nose about Bennell.

Fixed it for you.

 

[Ordovician]

Jed Anderson hasn't re-signed yet and I am worried by the lack of opportunity and not even getting a look in as an emergency.

I would be very surprised if he did not get a run against Brisvegas and Carltank.

His form has been good at BH so he deserves a run before eth finals when rest a few players, but there are issues with keeping position on the field that have to be ground into him.

 

[Dewnior]

What happened to Brisbane? Word is they offered $400k over 4 years.

There was some speculation that their preference may be to pick him up in the PSD rather than as a FA to avoid diluting the compensation they believe they'll get when they lose Leunberger to FA

 

[Kuuz]

Didn't Barrett also insist that we were balls deep into Tarrant? Maybe we were ... but until you hear it from a more reliable source take it with a cup of salt!

Barrett is a spud and will always be a spud. Do not listen to his crap.

 

[Roughies Boys]

Terry thinks Hawks are up to something (from 8.55mins)....

I heard about Hawks & Gibbo. McEvoy & Burgoyne also.

Hawks were interested in him, but thought he was a untouchable until they started Savage talks.

Get around me cryptor. I'm the biggest news breaker in the biz!

Surely the best?
