[Hearts to hearts]

I'm disappointed but philosophical about the outcome - annoyed by the process, though. It's not right to get backflips this late, after other decisions have been made.

 

[Hot Shame]

Pretty embarrassing. All these “sources” and connections “inside”. You people are all dreamers. You all know nothing.

Listen you ******* peanut. Getting tired of your shit. He backflipped. The end of story.

Mate, for what it's worth I have no doubt that everything you reported to us was accurate. And you always did so in a measured way.Things change. Unfortunately we have been on the wrong end of that the last few years. Anyway thanks for sharing what you could.
What I would like to see less of in the future is people repeatedly banging on with "Its happening!", and then mocking other posters who express any sort of doubt.

 

[Thewlis Dish]

Not sure we have the trade currency to just "move on" to another big target. The appeal of Gaff was that he was free.

 

[Flawed Genius]

Oh yeah. How'd that end up?

About as well as your “journalism” career is going.....

Right

That's enough out of the both of you

 

[kingcarey1]

Cameron Joyce has some serious explaining to do

To be fair, why would anyone accept an offer from this clown?

 

[Firestarter]

Still curious as to what announcements Brad Scott was referring to on Friday night.

I'm sticking with my Lamont left fielder.

EXCLUSIVE: Gaff set to stay with Eagles

Andrew Gaff is set to reject North Melbourne's massive offer and stay at West Coast

ANDREW Gaff is set to stay at West Coast after being seriously tempted to join North Melbourne as a free agent.

The West Coast star is yet to officially announce his decision but AFL.com.au understands he is in the process of informing people that he will re-sign with the Eagles.

The dual All Australian delayed a decision on his future until after the season as he grappled with remaining with the Eagles or moving to Arden St on a deal that was understood to be for seven years and worth about $8 million.

Gaff was genuinely torn between the two clubs, but ultimately his loyalty to West Coast swayed his decision.

The Kangaroos have already won commitments from Jared Polec and Aaron Hall ahead of the NAB AFL Trade Period.

Although they could yet switch their attention to another big fish this year, the Roos appear all but certain to make another huge play for GWS star Josh Kelly at the end of next season.

More to come

Spill the beans. Which team's flag should you really have?

 

[susurrar]

josh kelly will do a last second "backflip" too. bookmark it.

 

[Kanga1996]

Gaff confirmed to North the Friday before the grand final that he was coming.

The constant back flipping is going to make even harder to land someone now.

Yeah $ure it wa$

Where's that Carlton poster from like three hours ago

Trolling another Forum. :stern look

 

[Harvey Manfrenjensenden]

Sorry UpTheTigs Dusty's not in the best shape

 

[Phillyroo]

Right

That's enough out of the both of you

Hahaha, really?

...,Jon Snow’

You forgot that

But he’s fictional; like you, so head back off to your main Avatar wherever that maybe

Probably WC poster. Timing is too convenient.

No he doesn't. He and the recruiting team at North had a go. As did a number of other clubs. The others dropped out and it came down to between us and the Eagles. The club could not have done more to try to get him.

 

[DrZaius]

"Gaff was genuinely torn but his loyalty to West Coast ultimately won out"

Yeah $ure it wa$

Honestly I think this was the case, unlike Dusty last year where it was all about $$

 

[The Y Factor]

Cameron Joyce has some serious explaining to do

I imagine that the club is , at this stage, operating in good faith.

I don't believe the bit about the club not knowing anything. There is too much st stake with the rest of trade week, contracts etc.

The club would be aware of what's going on and waiting for the player to do their part.

As frustrating as it is , if that's the case, the club is just operating in good faith.

The club is doing. Great job and needs to be left to keep the direction and for us to be patient.

Very hard- I'm dying

 

[LETSGOKANGAS]

So WC didnt match meaning he stayed for much less $$$

 

[Flawed Genius]

Hahaha, really?

If you want to argue with each other do it in PMs

That goes for long time posters like Philly and new "ITK" accounts like Rolling Zone, Hot Shame, and anyone else

No point in gloating that you're right and others are plebs. Fluid situations complicated by a range of factors. I have no doubt that Gaff was across the line and has backflipped for whatever reason

Let's try and move on

 

[kangaspurs]

We'll carry on. I mean, we've come through much bigger challenges than this.

But there's no doubt that after last year, this is a ****ing shocking look for the footy club in every sense. We're going to seriously need to do some excellent PR work over the next couple of days.

There's every chance it could put doubts in other players' minds as well when they look at coming to North.

 

[Gasometer]

"Gaff was genuinely torn but his loyalty to West Coast ultimately won out"

Yeah $ure it wa$

Must be tough knocking back $200 a minute on a footy field

I feel sorry for him

 

[wazza03]

Stuff Gaff, sick of all of this
We should immediately shift our focus to Kelly or Shiel
Make sure that we secure Finlayson then we’ll be right
