Rumour 2024 Rumours and Speculation (Rumours total 25, last 28th August)

[robboaustralia]

He would have to, If tex was not getting a contract we would know about it this week before the last home game I assume. In that case I can't see Luko being anywhere in our forward line with TEX, FOG & RT

RT ruck. Prob see him as another midfielder.

RT ruck

Love the idea but not much support for him, big ask to be the only true ruck. Haven't watched heaps of luko but doubt that's within his capabilities

 

[AFC979810]

A first round pick should never be in the discussion for Jack ‘soft’ Lukosious. That sits somewhere between negligent list management and just plain stupid.

7 days ago you were saying the same about Rachele.

 

[weekend at bernies]

I always saw Luko going to Poort. With Dixon retiring would fill a need. effectively Houston out, Luko in.

 

[Pugsley]

It was mentioned on SEN a few weeks ago when the Oliver trade scenario came up again.

I can't prove the club said anything, thats why I said 'apparently'.

But the club has said they will be active again this trade period, Tim Silvers has said this publicly. So they are obviously looking to bring in some more experience. Which is why I am worried we will offer overs to the Suns for Luko so we can show that we did something at trade time.

I hope they are good at handling rejection again.

Terrible idea.

Can be a top 3 contested mark in the AFL and kick 50+. Why waste that as a ruckman?

I voted 'no' to landing a big fish.
So just clarifying, Luko doesn't count as a big fish does he?

He is more of a puffer fish.

 

[Bearded Clam]

Just close friend through Rozee.

Surely he’d be far closer to rankine.

Given rozee is a port augusta lad and butters is from vicco..

And he went to school with rankine and played and lived on the goldy with him for 3 or so years..

 

[GROTTO]

Nicks meeting Luko on the Gold Coast.

 

[skam85]

Maybe we've kept Ned on the list so long to help us catch a big fish

 

[Pugsley]

I know how to catch a big fish

 

[AFC979810]

All this talk on Luko and we have no clue if we are even into him

And your fighting with Bicks is a better topic?

It’ll be a Tommy Ruff

 

[GameofSloanes]

Would we be happy with an offseason like this?

Pick 4. Mid.
Keane and Berry to Pies. Pick(s) to Melbourne for Oliver.
Future first to GC for Lukosius.
Cumming FA.

If we did that reid's position is safe

 

[Pugsley]

Reid isn't going anywhere while Mumbles is there.

 

[George Kramer]

Hey at least that’s real!

 

[Trigger13]

7 days ago you were saying the same about Rachele.

I’ve been critical of Rachele, as many of us rightly have.

I was also very glowing of his performance on the weekend.

I call it as I see it.

I see luko as a player we simply don’t need. Especially at the expense of a high draft pick.

Do you think we would offer our F1, bearing in mind thats likely to be a Top 5 pick too.

I would hope not. I honestly don’t think Luko would make us any better. No matter where he plays on the ground. So, by that logic, i wouldn't pay anything for him. That’s how much I don’t rate him.

Be a lot of juvenile dick talk if it did happen. It’d be justified too

 

[Bazz_27]

That's one way of saying you are wrong.

Critical of someone and then when presented with indisputable facts you say that it was what you had wanted.

This circle jerk ensures you are always right. Great job

I disagree

I agree

This is the hard part of Future Picks

If we get Luko for a F1 PLUS a Draper or Lalor or Perryman - do we finish bottom 4?

Oh wait Nicks - but surely even he couldnt - oh wait

But the point is improving now pushes those picks out for other teams

They are gambling we will have Nicks for the full year - we are not
