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

[SLOWNE]

I think he stays put and this is just the Suns giving him a kick up the bum.

I don't think they can afford to keep him.

Crows really need to stand strong, our position should've been R2 only, surely you cant use that on ANB.

 

[Vader]

I reckon theres solid AFL ability in the first 2.

I can see Ned carving out a Keays like career somewhere

You might want to get your eyes checked!

 

[Crow till I die]

Trade 5 – Brisbane
Pick 25~, 39, 41, 49, 52, 66 & 73 (equivalent of pick 4) OUT; Pick 15 and 2025 1st (via BRIS) IN

Wow… even for a PlayStation trade that is crazy.

No one actually believes this, right?

I mean, why isn't this dude saying for us to be in on that. Pick 25, 42 (we can trade our f2 into this year for a bunch of junk picks) and we can get Brisbane's 1st and future 1st for it. Why should it be exclusive to Richmond to completely fleece a side for picks?

 

[George Kramer]

You're hounding of Wayno is way way over the top.

What the hell are you on about? I’m actually quoting you, not him. Why bring him into it? Pretty shit deflection from your odd choice to bring Mods into a discussion about ROB being dropped.

As for Wayne he brings it upon himself, if you’re going to state some superior intellect and insight to justify his support of Nicks and mock those who don’t share that opinion, well then you’ve got to expect it back. Besides given his posting there is a very real possibility he’s just trolling anyway.

They've normally made the first round of announcements by now.

Mind you, they've also normally held the B&F by now too. I can understand them holding off on the delistings until after the B&F. Not sure why the B&F has been delayed so long, given that both the AFL & SANFL teams have been finished for several weeks.

It's probably being influenced by a lack of certainty over the inbound players. ANB is confirmed, but they're obviously still waiting for Luko & Cumming to make decisions. Once they know how many players are inbound, they can finalise the number of players they need to delist to make it happen.

A lot of players on holiday at the moment, so can only assume it was planned to have it later in the year.

[tinman]

Being told to check your options is pretty clear and there really isn't going back from that imho. Especially a player like luko who could walk into any club

He could walk to any club if he takes a massive haircut. On $2m over the next 2 years there’ll be very few clubs in the queue.

 

[fossilllCrow]

Far out, what a sad time if we miss on everyone. I can’t comprehend life if we do. After banging on about being aggressive all year. Eeeeek

 

[crow2crow]

Oh for sure, I dont think we need him but I just think he's another thats been pretty poorly managed over his time here.

one thing with ned is he will land on his feet thats obvious

 

[latinoheat]

GC should fold if pick 6 is involved in the Rioli trade

Yep , that’s as far as I got into the story , didn’t bother reading that crap after that

 

[Mutineer]

Most players don’t like to announce moves until after their clubs BnF nights

Cept Jack Gunston..

That's what happens if you don't perform on the field!

Why do you think everyone wants to go to Geelong and Hawthorn? Because they win and win often.

Essendon despite being a big 4 club can't attract anyone because they haven't won jack shit in awhile. North were throwing out bags of money to stars and they all said no.

Stkilda have fallen into the trap of offering a bucket load of cash to sloppy seconds, and we are really close to going down that path too.

Money is great if you're a stock standard 18-22 player on a list but those top 5 guys or ones that want to be a top 5 calibre player on the list they want to bloody win.

It seems it was always planned because most of the lads are over in Europe or other places.

The big group of young lads together is good to see, Soligo Thilthorpe Nank Dowling Bond Michalaney. Looks like a rip roaring good time!

According to Rowey on this, all our assistants have been signed up for next season. So none of the current crop moving on, all staying.

It’ll be adding a director of coaching and that’s it

Pretty gutless

Tom Morris also reported this, so it's likely true

You had Rooch saying Burns was stepping aside from Senior Assistant

Probably where Rowey got it from in all honesty

Luko’s preference is Port (offer around 3.6m over 4 years). Cumming will be a crow. Come at me

 

[Carmo]

Hands down, we would have the cheapest group of Coaches and Football GM in the AFL.... Its actually embarrassing.

Like, we wouldn't even be close to the 'Soft Cap'.... Outside of D Burgess, we must be so far under the soft cap the AFL must be paying us.

This pathetic small minded "but... but... we can't attract anyone... " excuse is such loser mentality complacency.

If Geelong can attract players to live near farms in bum****ville 2 hours out of Melbourne, Adelaide can attract players. Its not Adelaide - its the useless inept people trying to convince them that's the problem.

One hopes there was some logic like there's no point having a top shelf coaching group while we're at the bottom in the rebuild, let's be minimal, bank the cash and then splash it once we're heading to the top again.

Didnt you say a few days ago both would be at Port ??
