[Danger in Texas]

Heard yesterday that GWS will ask Himmelberg to do a medical this week before tabling an offer

Likely to have two offers to chose from GC or GWS

Adelaide have not tabled an offer for Himmelberg

Shows the value of KPP's around the league, they're not waiting for us to just delist him like Hawthorn did with Henderson

Plus getting interstate player to be convinced to come to Adelaide.

Last time we were able to do that for an actually decent non-SA player was Seedsman, right?

 

[FR0GGY]

Round 1 compo pick coming.

Is that in the preseason draft?

 

[spenze]

Can't believe that Jen is getting hassled about sharing a rumour in a rumour thread.

 

[MRB37]

Round 1 compo pick coming.

We won't get anything after signing Cumming.

 

[Peter Doherty]

If Fagan can have Dew come in and help out, there's no excuse for Nicks.

He needs to swallow his pride.

Biggest losing margin in a GF ever.

That will be a long standing legacy.

Just as long as pick 4 is quarantined and used to pick up a mid I’m ok with who else we bring in

Interesting if true. GWS won’t take him as a FA as they would lose compo for Cumming, so could it be because we have been talking to them about a trade for Peatling? Maybe F2 plus Himo for him makes sense, especially with how many players the Giants are going to lose.

is coming back as our senior assistant (current GWS midfield coach) and he's bringing Peatling with him

 

[fossilllCrow]

I agree, we all love a rumour and we finally get one and she’s copping it.

[fuic08]

So who was the rumoured off field acquisition?

 

[glengowan]

I heard today ....this is an actual rumour .....on SEN

Would you exchange Kozi Pickett for Houston ? .....not sure of how the mechanics would work (steak knives)

Port would need to add something else juicy (late 1st or early 2nd) with Houston to get Pickett.

[Mostyn]

Might there be 1-2 of our contracted players getting traded or even paid out?

Smith the obvious one
Pedlar for Peatling?

It's easy to make six spaces on the main list.

Cut Elliot Himmelberg, Rory Sloane, Chris Burgess, Lachlan Gollant and Ned McHenry and move someone contracted for 2025 (like Brodie Smith) to the rookie list.

That's three trades, two draft picks and Welsh.

 

[George Kramer]

It is.

Pick 25 for ANB?
