Rumour 2023 Rumours and Speculation (Rumours total 37!, 1 (busted) BIG FISH ALERT last October 9th) (9 confirmed! 17 Busted!)

[George Kramer]

We should be throwing this money at any quality midfielder.

We should be able to do both

 

[Hodgy]

Fine by me. Hope we can convince McAdam to stay by using some of this money we seem to have so much of.

 

[Danger in Texas]

We should be throwing this money at any quality midfielder.

I do wonder if we are dipping into the Oliver money, or if that cap space is separate

 

[jackster83]

We should be throwing this money at any quality midfielder.

We're stacked though.

 

[Danger in Texas]

Welp, Theo got the clicks he wanted I guess

 

[Mr MysteryGuest]

The Lever chickens coming home to roost somewhat amusing.

Not really , they got Petty out that trade

 

[ams4crows]

No..

I bet whats happened is geelong has all along demanded ports future first for Rat..

And the stubborn welfare club of scumbags never want to pay full price..

So they instead split their future first for 23 and a junk pick so they could then turn to geelong and say “sorry, we bo longer have our F1 so you’ll just have to accept this”..

But it seems it has backfired as geelong have said “fxxk you… we’ll send him to the PSD and he can go play for the Hawks!”..

Now powa are gonna have to scramble to come up with a deal equal to their F1 they no longer have!..

Its brilliant!

Will be even funnier if we did in fact land Petty and they've been making a lot of noise about all the need is a good key back and then fail to bring in the same guy two years in a row and they end up only with BZT who was statistically the defender who conceeded the most goals this year.

 

[BigBoSS_Riot]

Correct me if anyone thinks the following figures are miles out…

clarry’s on 1m a year..

petracca would be on atleast $900k

Gawn on $800k

fritch on $600k

Viney on $700k

Brayshaw on $600k

lever on $7-800k

may on $600k

Pickett on $600k

Grundy on $600k (with pies paying the other $300k) and who they will have to continue to pay something towards once he is at the swans..

thats $7.2 million of their cap used up on just 9 players!.. over half of it!

WHAT THE FXXK ARE THEY PAYING THEIR OTHER 30 OR SO LISTED PLAYERS.. some must be on a pittance..

Even if you take a 100k off here and there from those figures.. its still a lot of coin on 9 players..

So….

Whats everyone here reckon Petty is on?..

He cant be on a cent more than $500k, if that… and if he is.. then the dees need to have their salary cap audited.

So if the crows are offering him $800k a year.. a whole $300,000 dollars A YEAR more..

Petty will definitely be formally asking the dees for that trade home in the coming days… if he hasnt already..

The rest is just the dees posturing for the best deal possible and that will involve pick 10.

Melbourne won't be paying Grundy any money - only Collingwood and Sydney are paying him. That's why Melbourne didn't receive particularly impressive picks for him.

 

[ams4crows]

Top 10 midfielders in the league who are not South Australian don't want to live in Adelaide. There aren't any top line mids available, there was a very small opening with Oliver but that door was slammed shut.

It's the actually convincing star players to live here which is our problem.

 

[Bearded Clam]

Melbourne won't be paying Grundy any money - only Collingwood and Sydney are paying him. That's why Melbourne didn't receive particularly impressive picks for him.

Well.. geez… that $600k less makes a massive difference..

what are they paying

Sparrow
Langdon
spargo
Salem
hunter
Chandler

these blokes must be on peanuts..

 

[bonehilda]

Ok no Petty then, but hopefully we’ve enticed/flattered him enough that he doesn’t extend with them and still considers heading our way in a couple years time… so now what are we getting for Shane? Dees have 41, 46 and two F2

 

[Brett Cummings]

Another stoner club. As if you’d knock back 23, he’s not even worth that.

Good luck to any club trying to get pick 8 from geelong. They are a pain in the ass to trade with. Never wanna be reasonable.

 

[Crows4Flag]

Petty goes OK but he isn't the player we should be paying that kind of money if the figures Drop is quoting are correct.

What would you rather spend the cash on?

 

[GROTTO]

Wow… Port actually caved to Geelong’s horseshite demands, which now has just given the Cats license to keep posturing for even more. LOL

Esava is Port's Bryce Gibbs.

This will hurt Port both in the present and in the future. Its beautiful.

 

[Samcro24]

What would you rather spend the cash on?

Anti inflammatories

 

[Samcro24]

We should be able to do both

Odds on to do neither

salary dump + GWS pick being discussed.

 

[Peter Doherty]

Nick Haynes salary dump + GWS pick being discussed.

Thank you!

7 or 16?

 

[Brett Cummings]

Nick Haynes salary dump + GWS pick being discussed.

Cool, would rather deal with them than that cat piss club.

 

[Crow_68]

This would be mildly amusing….straight swap for Ratugolea?

 

[C4[2]Yo`DooR]

Thank you!

7 or 16?

Not sure yet sorry - will keep you posted

 

[Danger in Texas]

Nick Haynes salary dump + GWS pick being discussed.

I wouldn’t mind this, if we can’t get anyone in the door this year. Also needs to involve 7

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Will be even funnier if we did in fact land Petty and they've been making a lot of noise about all the need is a good key back and then fail to bring in the same guy two years in a row and they end up only with BZT who was statistically the defender who conceeded the most goals this year.

In the unlikely chance we land Petty, we could trade them Butts for pick #24.

 

[Brett Cummings]

This would be mildly amusing….straight swap for Ratugolea?

My god mackie is a flog but hey, if it's port it's ok.

 

[Bearded Clam]

This would be mildly amusing….straight swap for Ratugolea?

This lad can play ok..

until he has to set shot kick for goal!..
