And be happy we are not over spending on anyone

This is a Phil Walsh implementation
Believe it or not

Was still less than what was offered elsewhere

 

[Crowman32]

I dont think we will be bringing any one in, fully expecting organic growth comment again. The only one who seems to have some inside info is stiffy who seems to think we are a good chance to get gibbs. Hopefully he is right.

Can you explain what your post meant?

We have trade targets who have agreed to come and we are working out deals?

He never says anything. He just put out little teasers but i dont think he has any inside info. When something does go down he will turn around and say i was told this by my source.

Surely Rockliff makes Port's midfield very one-paced?

 

[Danger in Texas]

Here is hoping. Charlie will be gone if Brisbane offer something decent

Roo rates Motlop, gave him 3 votes in his rising star year. ( the year talia won)

He's here Later this week according to the Courier Mail so hopefully we put on a show

Hear Unlikely to GC but Pear are in box seat atm

Cripps has said he hasn’t met with Motlop as of today, so maybe he’s here to preference who he likes best later this week?

Are we more of a chance than GC?

 

[Vader]

True. But they hold all the cards. If Brisbane match the port offer Port will have to use its own currency to get the deal done. From getting a player for free they have to pay Brisbane some compensation. What do they lose. They can pick him up at going rate in PSD or Rockliff misses out. Up to Port to make a deal.

Brisbane have already said that they won't match any offers, and won't stand in the way of his leaving.

I'd want Brisbane's pick 12 for Cameron. He's contracted, so I'd expect overs. Give 'em back our pick 52.

Not going to get it, and I doubt we'd even bother asking. Pick #18 is already overs.

Don't know re the Cripps thing and pretty sure like last time with Cats and Tigers he will take less than offered by others. In this case the big offer is GCS , no idea what we or Pear are offering but my mail is he is Adelaide (the city that is) bound unless Cats match.
Cats wouldn't of matched anything 4 weeks ago. After finals will cost a bit more to prise him out.

They can let Ebert and Polec stay outside, even quicker if they still add Motlop.

 

[hippyhippy]

If we want motlop.. I'd tell Geelong we can only give our third rounder cause we need our other picks for our trades and draft

He’s a FA

 

[hippyhippy]

He’s a FA

What sort money he be demanding? 500k?

 

[MRB37]

Wish we would all relax, we have clarity on attaining some trade currency now, therefore we will be trading

There is zero chance we won't be active this trade period or will we be using any attained high draft picks for organic growth (zero)
"This is fact not rumour"

Highly confident

Being active isn't much good when you try and short change everyone on deals.

 

[Danger in Texas]

What sort money he be demanding? 500k?

You’d think it’d be around this mark. I’d pay it if Cameron leaves

 

[pjcrows]

And the rest.

 

[hippyhippy]

Well.. I think motlop does a few things better than Cameron.. If betts can get into him to lift his work ethic.. Could be lots of upside. I'm sure he'd love to play with betts.

 

[Corvus]

And the rest.

Know that for a fact? In any case reckon Geelong would match up to that. ( restricted free agent remember and not one that "wants out" ) if he wants "and the rest" will be aGoldCoast player

Do geelong really want him? They didn't mid year.

Could be late to the party but has anyone worked out that this guy posts exactly like a supposed dead guy?

 

[Bernie L]

I know a little birdy.

Cameron hasnt said anything.

 

[ams4crows]

Surely Rockliff makes Port's midfield very one-paced?

And ours isn't?

 

[CROWS84]

Redhorse please tell us there's a big fish coming. Even if we can dream for a couple of weeks

 

[Matman23]

I have heard a strong rumor that Devon Smith was set on a move to Adelaide. But it fell apart when he wasn't willing to change his name to Fritz.

 

[VictorianCrow85]

Lol. No club is going to swap pick 10 and 17 for pick 3. Rankine and Lukosius could be top 2 taken.
We will not ever in this world get the currency for pick 1.
Take this, we lost Danger and Lever for pick 9, 10, 27, 27. No club is going to give up Rankine at pick 1 for those picks. So we lose a top 2 player in the game today, and the best young defender and wouldnt get enough to pick up either of those two.

I don't know anything about Rankine but everyone rates him highly, we should be in his ear already about his trade home soon as his first contract or two are done. Effectively start the poach years ahead and try make him a big fish that we screw someone else over for.
