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

[NTRabbit]

But we knew he'd be getting older

I would have thought salaries would be parabolic over a player's career

Maybe ours are more like an upwards ramp!

 

[FR0GGY]

GC are bringing in two high priced players .....they have to find the money from somewhere

The fact Rosas has been asked to shop himself around, IMO demonstrates a need to free up spots ...with more Academy picks coming

Fancy Rosas being flicked ....and Atkins enjoys the remainder of his newly signed Contract

Yep, but hopefully we don’t cave early, imo we should have the upper hand.

 

[Crows I Am]

No way we giving a first round + playing 1m each year for luko.

Suns will want that salary off their books

Well if they are happy to keep him if they don't get a first rounder then good luck to them and they can keep him. Not our problem how they then plan to fit in their new recruits with Luko's contract still on the books.

We offer a 2nd rounder and hold firm. If it doesn't happen we will then get him next year for less.

 

[Trigger13]

Of course we would give up a F1 for Luko. Why would anyone expect anything less from Reid and co.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

Yep, but hopefully we don’t cave early, imo we should have the upper hand.

I think both parties realise where each other sits .....IMO this will be a reasonable trade for both .....the pendulum might be slightly in our favour

Of course this will all depend on the Contract we give Lukosius .....he's accustomed to being OVERPAID ....will take a drop of humility to see where he lies in the pecking order

 

[Jirkago75]

Agree I hope we dont get suckered into this. We are doing them the favour.

Luko off their books will be a huge advantage for them for the salary cap.

Get the feeling they will need to do it quick too or they may not be able to get Rioli and Noble into the cap. We just need him to pick us and we can start screwing them down, price wise that is. How many clubs have that sort of room in the cap?? Maybe 3 or 4 clubs?? GC won’t be able to do much if they want to get their targets in the trade period and also the academy players

[CromradeCromulent]

Houston wouldn't be close to 1m per year atm ...

 

[WeeBlake]

If it’s Burgess or Hombsch I’ll be pissed off

 

[WeeBlake]

Silvers was in the footage

 

[jbanger]

Isn't Bello leaving/already left?

 

[Danger in Texas]

people will either be rejoicing or microwaving their memberships soon

If it’s Burgess I stg

 

[relapse]

Roo?

I think it could potentially be Roo, surely if it was Burgess they wouldn't be referring to him as a "major off field figure"

 

[Crow_68]

people will either be rejoicing or microwaving their memberships soon

Surely they missed the 's' off figure?

 

[jackster83]

Hopefully it's Adam Kelly.

I half thought roo might have been hanging around till his sons were eligible for FS, how long is that away?

 

[jbanger]

Silvers was in the footage

as was Burgess, Nicks, Brent Reilly etc

It is worrying though that they showed Burgess with the first bit of footage

 

[jbanger]

Who was next to him?

 

[AtypicalHorse007]

Gollant is more likely to be gone this off-season. The AFC will need to free up spots so I can't see them trying to keep him if he wants to leave.

 

[Mutineer]

Josh Manuel?

 

[40porpoise]

I think Burgess is gone. The good burgess not the bad one
