Rumour 2023 Rumours and Speculation (Rumours total 33!, 1 BIG FISH ALERT last October 4th) (7 confirmed! 11 Busted!)

[ContrarianCrow]

Clarry tackles them, Laird picks up the ball, handballs to Dawson who bombs it long to tex on the lead.

I like the cut of your jib.

Thread marked as Hayward for some reason

we were speculating, but when I posted this (1st sep) the soure said a huge player straight after finals from a finals bound team. Never would have guessed Clatyon Oliver

 

[Danger in Texas]

Bump, my sauces seem to have been on the money with this one.

Doesn’t sound like we’ve put an offer on the table for him yet, though? Moreso sussing out the situation

 

[Jibroni]

Think we will be working towards getting pick 4, moving that to Melbourne with pick 9 and McAdam. Melbourne are then on their way to Reid.

Pick 25 for McAdam helps us get pick 4, do it Melbourne.

How would you beat the Dogs to Pick 4?

As mentioned 4,9, McAdam and Gollant would be very close to the mark. Im assuming we would on trade 4 and 6 for Reid and something....

Were they in the cupboard?.. or the fridge?..

Cause if its the fridge..

 

[Coopers]

Offer pick 9, future first and Macadam and offer to pick up all of his salary to get it off the Dees books. We should have enough space in our cap to fit it in...

In what world would the destination club for Oliver not pay his whole salary?

 

[Crow till I die]

maybe we go for pick 10 in that dogs GC trade? - by using our 2nds to get it for points from GC

Then we could offer 9, 10 & F1 & McAdam?

So you want MvAdam, and our McAdam replacement? Bit unfair.

I imagine one of these picks needs to be a Top 4 or a player of this value.

Otherwise some people at the MFC might as well resign.

When there's player issues between team mates, I.e. disconnect and outright distrust it's very hard for the club.
Melbourne might be in a no win situation where Oliver isn't welcome amongst the leadership group and needs to go.

Except Gollant isnt our mcadam replacement..

Mcadam was out of the side through injury and suspension for how many games this year?… and not once did gollant come in to the 22 to replace him..

Gollant only comes in to replace one of tex, TT or fog..

And we might have chol and burgess to do this by the end of trade period..

I’d be ok with Gollant being involved..

We wouldn’t know

I dont disagree but from a MFC perspective you should be finding the best counsellor in Australia to remedy any player fractures.

I just dont see how we trade him without receiving a substantial offer.

I'm fascinated by our offseason. Literally no leaks of a first 22 player other than the media running with Oliver.

End of 2024 will also be interesting as Hayward will be OOC, and we may also look to get Petty then.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

Ok you’re working on the assumption there is only one way for us to complete trades. Is that how it works? We’ve got a first rounder this year haven’t we? Could we not have used that on Rankine for example?

Probably not ....given GC is trying to get rid of their pick #4 this year
