News 2019 Rumour File - discuss rumours here! (Part 2)

[Brenton Davy]

For those who haven’t seen it..good for a laugh.

In an age where the players are all media trained in all the cliches and politically correct behaviour this is really refreshing.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

If you just look at the raw numbers they're deceptive....Kemp has spent large portions of a lot of his games playing half forward and half back as well as midfield minutes, of course if you compare him with blokes like Rowell who play almost permanent midfield you would get that impression. That's the beauty of Kemp he's a true mid/utility that offers versatility few AFL footballers have. Surely you've noticed this year Bontompelli has spent periods of games playing forward as well as midfield?

So , how much time at junior U18 games has Kemp been playing Midfield?

 

[Danger_zone]

Does anyone know what happened to the Trade Shouter?

Have to admit, I did like his gunslinger approach to AFL trade week twitter. Throwing content out left and right and calling out Journo’s... Was pretty unreliable info, but at least it was entertaining in the trade week dead period (I.e. the first 8 days)

Now what are we left with, Tricky Nixon and the boring as hell whisperer?

Vomit!

Old account was one of us AFC BF posters! however taken over by hackers.

The account now (AFL Shouter on insta) is full of click baity / Vic Bias rumour bs. Post quality has significantly dropped from the new owners.

I don't keep a stop watch handy unfortunately, I don't think many do?

I would only be guessing if I quoted you a number but I'd say fairly considerable off the top of my head.

Looking through his profile, he's suggesting Nicks with McRae as Senior Asst.

How accurate was the old AFL Shouter??

A lot of his footy this year was also for Geelong Grammar in the school's comp and I'm not aware of where he exactly played there though he regularly features in the bests.

Perhaps read Pete Williams draft bio on Brodie to get a better feel what his capabilities are?

******* lol

Brad Crouch didnt seem to make his way to Richmond in the offseason?

The reddit account (ie The AFL shouter OG) seemed pretty reliable. Not always 100% correct, but never sprouted journalist / click baity BS.

I also loved that he called out all the BS from the so called AFL journalist Via Twitter. Was gold Jerry !

 

[DangerSloane]

And two players currently playing under him don't.

Not true.
Jack Steven just doesnt want to be under someone else at the club if you know what i mean

 

[Vader]

Wonder how much input Binuk has in things like this? Maybe the chance of getting an AA type player is better with 3 top 20 picks, compared with 1 top 5 pick.

The odds are still better, with 1x top-4 pick than 3x picks in the 11-20 range.

 

[Vader]

I think we blew a pick 2 to get Wayne Carey. Daniel Wells to North Melbourne....other than that we haven’t got great form with sub 4 picks. Maybe spread the odds where we are more comfortable. At least there we have some form.

Nope, we blew pick #4 on Carey. The pick was subsequently upgraded to #2 after the fact, when Carlton were stripped of picks #1 and #2 for paying players under the table in brown paper bags.

Richmond & Adelaide are both on record as stating that they never would have done the deal if they knew they were trading pick #2 instead of #4.

Richmond ?

 

[xchadders]

Richmond ?

we got the pick from them for trading kane johnson

 

[ad victoriam]

Wonder if the the Crows get luckly,
Trade pick 4 to GWS for 12, 18 and 2020 1st,
Then follow that up with a trade to St Kilda, pick 12 and 18 for pick 6.

Effectively we lose pick 4 but gain pick 6 and a 2020 late 1st rd.

 

[FR0GGY]

Brad Crouch didnt seem to make his way to Richmond in the offseason?

Fair to say Brad would have been mighty pissed off around that time due to his injures could quite have easily said to his manager to find me someone else.

He was definitely pissed off

Really? I'd love the data on that.

Don't hate that.

Not massivley interested in trading into next year. I'd rather a player.

Sounds exactly what we need. A mid that can actually go forward and be dangerous.

This. I want our Martin/Bont/Danger

 

[rabidcrow]

Sounds like the vics will attempt to derail a 3rd season in a row as well, mentioned the truth about the camp will come out, and existing players relationships with the club will be affected again.

We should “8 mile” this in the review. Disclose what happened so there is no more story next year - move on those responsible - and take all of the air out of it

then hope another club implodes next year!

But if it gives extra trade currency for Luko (assuming he wants to come back to us) this will help immensely. 2 x 1sts (GWS and AFC), with 1 highly likely to be a top 5/10 pick.

Pick Swap finalised

GWS get P6 and P59
Saints get P12 & P18

Freo asking Saints for 2 1sts for Hill, Saints not willing to trade next year's first.
Seems like a good deal for Saints if they are keen for the 2nd King Twin next year.
