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

[MRB37]

Apparently 7 news said Borlase has signed a two year deal?

Yep, was rumoured a few months ago we'd offered him a 2 year deal (and Himmelberg too), but he was waiting to the end of the year because he was a FA and would evaluate offers.

Guessing it means he didn't get any guarantees he'd be starting elsewhere.

 

[lincsPJ]

Kicking goals this offseason already, Berry, Borlase, Tex and lose Burgess.

You forgot smiths trigger

You forgot smiths trigger

Considered it, but he hid that during the season

 

[Danger in Texas]

If they have it's not been up on their Social Media sites, plenty of Walker/Berry though.

It’s up on their socials now

Have we got the results of Silvers' review yet?

Looking forward to us making the big change of having Coke instead of Pepsi.

Why the f*ck are we just casually handing out 2 year deals to guys no other club wants? Do Reid and co. get off on hamstringing our list or something

This is where I think having a player manager as list manager doesn’t work

Reid would see it as a success having a bunch of average players on less than average deals. That’s a win in his book.

 

[NTRabbit]

If he’s contracted, unless we can do better, tell him he’s staying until we replace him and then do that at an optimal time?

My friend, that is not how employment works

 

[Shifty Crow]

serious question

when Burgo arrived we had an expectation that we would be the fittest club in the competition

We all thought we would run out games better than our opposition..

My question

Was it really that noticeable?

Burgo must have celebrated a little too hard in the box and offended Nicks.

Nothing else gets your fired, dropped or relocated at the AFC faster.

Ugh, can't say I'm onboard with this, not even if Keane's gone.

Fine with it as depth. Basically confirms Keane’s gone I think

Would prefer it was a one-year deal though

 

[El Doederino]

Seems clear Gollant and Berg are gone now (edit and Keane)

Or are we just getting in ANB and banking on organic growth.

What does your heart tell you

 

[PeterSalt]

Burgess might be a soft cap dump to accommodate Nicks' new 2 year deal

Expecting to see a massive dump of Carloloton football dept staff to accommodate Burgo

Also can anyone explain why we had a top shelf fitness coach but a bargain basement coaching panel during a rebuild while the main priority should have been player development?

You forget that the coaches we had before were actually much worse. These are the improvements

 

[woofsson]

Disappointing if true

Maybe Covid and the isolation amplified the issue of being separated, or maybe Burgess prefers Melbourne as a city

Maybe he got Crovid

The crows aflw look like a really happy bunch. Doc clark has created a very good environment. Quality coaches make all the difference.

Better than his cheer leading history.

does that take him to FA?

I know for a fact that a large group of our players aren’t real keen on Scotty Burns
