Collingwood "sniffing" around Libba

[King Harold]

DaWayne Russell is a total flog. I'm not normally a violent person, but every time I listen to that mental midget commentate a game I have the overwhelming urge to reach through the TV screen and ring his bloody neck.

Fortunately for both him and me technology hasn't advanced that far just yet.

You and me brother !

Isn't that what dogs supporters said about Callan Ward?

Ward grew up going for Essendon and wasn't under contract for four more years.

 

[SauceCode]

Dwayne Russell makes me laugh.

 

[TheHoneyBadger]

I'd put money on it being a complete fabrication, but if it is the case, Collingwood are just doing their dues. He's an outstanding midfielder. Libba won't go anywhere, though.

 

[ivan rassmussen]

At least this is AFL, although "sniffing" could be taken out of context.

If we were in the NRL, his career would be "bubbling" along nicely, which might make him attractive to other clubs for all the wrong reasons!

 

[igloo dweller]

is it a sign of our insecurties as a supporter group that we've given this as much oxygen as we have?

 

[DexterTan]

Ward grew up going for Essendon and wasn't under contract for four more years.

No but he also "bleeds red, white and blue".

 

[total football]

It wasn't Dwayne Russell who said it, it was Tony Shaw. Russell was just rehashing what Shaw had said previously.

 

[footyfan000001]

I disagree.

There are needs and wants - but at the same time you have to remember he is a favourite son of ours, famous name and a future leader of the club. Not to mention how good his midfield work is. Hypothetically if a trade like that did occur, I would be dirty. No matter how badly we need a Travis Cloke.

Good reminder that a lot of us thought why wasn't Ward stitched up earlier. Don't want the same mistake with Libba.

Agree. But the threads credibility ended when the words. " Dwayne Russell said"
My thoughts on that consumer of his own bath water are documented on that shit bloke's thread.

Yeah I agree we should get him to sign a contract extension...
Wait...oh we did.
...last year!?....
Well...uh...(/throws water in face and runs away)

i'm in a rural spot at the moment so couldn't see the full game but it was funny in the highlights hearing him call Kersten's goal "A CONTENDER!" and he also ripped out a "THAT'S GOLD CLASS". monster flog is this man

 

[Jdoggy]

Well this is funny
Coz just suggesting if he was even entertained with a move anywhere, he'd go to Collingwood? We just gave them an absolute pants down showing the other week, and Collingwood supporters livid after Gold Coast have already conceded how s*** they are right now. So sure they want some hella talent coming in but good to see that they're in a bit of a laughing stock from their usual high and mighty egos. Libba and everything he and his family name means to the club won't be leavin

 

[Tommycash]

It would be silly if they aren't. I can't see it happening though.

 

[G-Mo77]

They'd be crazy not to be "sniffing" around so would every other club and I'm sure they are.

 

[SonOfScray]

Isn't that what dogs supporters said about Callan Ward?

It wasn't what I was saying. Ward is a piece of shit. Absolutely dogged it in his last couple of games for us. Which was the worst part of the whole fiasco.

How good is it watching him waste his career in western Sydney. Would love nothing more than to see him finish his career with absolutely no success, well until he comes crawling back offering to play on minimum wages as our 5th + best mid in the year we go back to back

 

[Cudi]

The Ward situation isn't even comparable, Ward was poached by a start up side who had over the top money to throw around.

There's more chance of us rookie listing Fev at the end of season than Libba leaving anytime soon.

 

[Mutt]

Libba signed a contract extension in August last year for a further three years. He is not out of contract until the end of 2016.

 

[BEEG]

Yeah because Dwayne Russell has really great sources to go with his really great football knowledge

God forbid he ever teams up with BT.........

 

[Hrovat24]

Sniffing his jocks maybe

 

[TheHoneyBadger]

Surprised by the sentiments regarding Ward. I don't begrudge him for taking that sort of money and I don't begrudge his latter couple of performances considering he was being booed and taunted relentlessly over it.

I was devastated we lost him, and the way we were pillaged I genuinely hope GWS has no success for well beyond the duration of Cal's career, but no personal grudge. I don't want him back though.
