Why exactly will Hrovat better our team? He'll add depth, sure. But imo he's just another capable-with-no-standout-attribute footballer who has been in the system a while. Would rather use a pick on a kid.

He wont just add depth he will be in our top 4 mids especially now Gibbs is off to Adelaide. Hrovat is fast, has elite disposal and great leadership qualities.
We need him more than we need Marchbank IMO.

Just ask any doggies fan, they rate him very highly.

Now there are a lot of rumours, gossip and speculation as to whom we are targeting in this years draft, we have quite a few posters on here who seem to be in the know, so I'm calling out to them to give us the good oil on who we are actually going after.
 
Reading the rumours it sounds like Hvorat more likely to go to NM than CFC.
Norf may be bidding their Wells compo pick and we may prefer Honeychurch anyway.

Geeze there are a lot of scenarios whizzing around the media right now, let alone BigFooty. Mad time of year.

Have we been linked to Rockliff in anything other than the Age, which only speculates that he may be of interest if Gibbs goes?
 
Hanley said that, not Rockliff :thumbsu:

Rockliff said similar. They were in it together.

Meanwhile Hanley is leaving Brisbane because he is sick of being a loser.

If you didn't like them before, you're not going to like them any more if reports of Dodoro threatening GC and GWS that they'll be bidding for their Academy players with the pick #1, unless they bow to his wants.

How ******* low is that, if that is what Dodoro/the EFC are threatening clubs via those sorts of means?

The pick #1 that Essendon should not have had been granted, has made Dodoro, Tony Montana........FMD :)

Dodoro is totally full of s$^t, pretty sure they said the same thing last year and didn't bid on the academy players. They are morons and as weak as p$ss! Call their bluff, hopefully they get stuck with Setterfield as No.1.
 
Would love Charlie Cameron. So fast and an amazing tackler.

Nakia Cockatoo in a straight swap for Tuohy is fine by me too. Kid will be a star.

Not sure how we make that stick but it would be a great deal for us.
 
Heard a rumour that those black and red bastards have lost their appeal and are now undeniably cheating campaigners

Got the syringe and the spoon ready for a workmate who is returning to work after a couple of months off oh how sweet its going to be!
 
Just how long is our rebuild going to take though? Will Rockliff at 26 make it? He's been fairly injury prone. Not buying into him having a bad attitude problem, it would be tough leading that club and frustrations can overflow. This sounds like something a few people said on bigfooty or social media and everyone just went with it. He'd be just about our best midfielder if he stayed fit. He'd be coming to us as a 27 year old, I think this puts him out of our target range.

He's always looked a bit chubby to me.

Would he start off in Bolts "Fat Club"???

Might be the reality check he needs.
 
I hope to god Essendon call Bowes then Setterfield, because I think there's a massive chance GWS pass and make them look like complete idiots. Bowes is fine, he could possibly be no. 1, but no way on Setterfield.

In fact, I think every AFL club should buy them a beer if they do it.
 
Would a three-way deal like this work for us:

Gibbs -> Adelaide
13 -> Brisbane
Rockliff + Dear -> Carlton
There was previous word of a possible 3 way including gold coast.
Any chance of
Gibbs, 24, GC 2017 3rd -> Adelaide
13, Adel 2017 1st, Lyons -> Gold coast
Swallow, 8 -> Us.

Keep pick 5 leaving 2 x top 10 picks to use on two of Brodie, SPS, Taranto or Ainsworth.:thumbsu:
