Rumour 2024 Rumours and Speculation Part 3

[Coopers]

why not now with our future first?

Hell yeah brother.

That's what I want to do.

 

[1970crow]

One was in contract (ANB) and the other out of contract (Peatling). We have form in walking players to the PSD and not saying we will here but its implied and offers some more leverage

Thought ANB was on record as retiring if he couldn't get to SA? Not sure our leverage was diminished at all due to the variance in contract status. I doubt very much in our sell to Peatling that it included him possibly having to get past Richmond, Eagles and North in the PSD.

Would you rather Phillipou or Sharpe? if we are going to try and make a play to get one of them

Soonest we could most likely get Sharp is 2028, so I wouldn’t worry about that too much yet

Need a snack ??

 

[Danger in Texas]

Phillipou would be my prime target

I’d have them pretty close, Phillipou with that smaller sample size of excellent form at the end of the year but more superstar potential

 

[Crow till I die]

I was thinking about making a play to get up the draft next year to draft him

 

[Crow till I die]

Well Well Well

Ehh, maybe. Phillipou and NWM will be more ready to go while Dawson/Keays/Hinge/ANB/Cumming are in their prime

 

[johnnypanther]

It's fine but Port supporters wanted two firsts for Houston and not to pay a first for Luko

self-entitlement is part of their creed

 

[relapse]

Well Well Well

 

[Crow till I die]

I agree...but Sharpe (assuming he continues his rise) has a higher ceiling than either of those players...a ceiling similar to JHF maybe.

 

[Crow till I die]

As long as it still requires port to offload that F1 and not get a ridiculous return back...good

 

[croweater 41]

Well Well Well

Is Harrison Wigg still on their list? Might be the additional sweetener needed

North Adelaide

 

[Jarman3]

As long as it still requires port to offload that F1 and not get a ridiculous return back...good

And as long as they still have to take Atkins.

Agree probably on the NWM front. Still think Phillipou could be anything

Either way, if Sharp does continue his trajectory, I don’t think Richmond (most likely) will be giving up pick 1 easily, at all

 

[Thrillthorpe7]

Langford or Lalor to North after you’ve suggested Draper

Yes, North’s apparent strong interest in Draper came at the SA Combine, which the Eagles got wind of. When did I say any of this was final? I made it very clear things change quickly with the draft, just trying to provide updates as I get them.

Should I stop posting any updates on here? It is a very even draft as we all know, there will probably be another 5 versions of this before draft night.

Edit: I see I made a typo, have corrected it. Why didn’t you just ask me if I meant to post Richmond for Lalor or Langford instead of your snide response?

in the mega deal to Port is redefining the meaning of steak knives

I know GC only just signed him, but maybe they can throw in Himmelberg together with RAT for double the amount of laughs.

I’m assuming you meant Lalor and Langford to Richmond instead of North, given that’s where you had them linked in your draft order

 

[Thrillthorpe7]

I’m guessing it’s a typo and he meant Richmond (whether it’s true or not)

Yes sorry, Lalor or Langford to Richmond, that’s definitely a typo

 

[mcleod at 50 lines it up]

Even if he said yes you wouldn't be able to help yourself

Yes, sorry. Not sure why I got such a snide response from George.
