Player Watch Daniel Curtin - Debut

[GreyCrow]

Nobody is saying it is impossible that he leaves or that nobody ever leaves while contracted. There's just no particular reason to assume that it's happening at this stage, and most player movements happen while OOC.

Nobody thought McGovern was leaving either

Until the whispers started

Guess we'll see then.

They can also not change.

Regardless we have absolutely no way of knowing, players who are leaving are still going to (usually) do media talking about how great they club is and players who are staying are still usually subject to rumours that they are going to leave when there's cause for speculation (OOC, go home factor etc). For now Curtin is contracted so it's very improbable he's going anywhere.

Let the bed wetters TakeOver this thread. Much funnier that way.

Seriously, a nobody text to Mr Tabloid himself is actually beyond laughable as a source. Why many didn’t bother to check the credibility of the source says a lot about their default outlook.

Hopefully Rowey reads out my text making publicly available information in H Reid, Daicos, Curnow, JHF and friends are likely to demand a move to the tri colours come seasons end.

Nigel was drafted as a wingman, that's where he played almost exclusively at the Panthers before we drafted him.

But we didn't demand that they master being a KPD at AFL level before starting them on their journeys to become AFL mids.

Tyson Edwards and Simon Goodwin were both back pockets too

 

[Enviable Tradition]

I’m wondering if any player has ever turned from a key defender to a midfielder?
Cannot think of one?
We’ve either over spent on a defender or he’s never going to make a good key defender imo.

He didn’t spend much time there did he?
Nor did he end up there or have I got that wrong?

That footage of him on Channel 7 news tonight was disturbing. Looked upset, consoled by Chelsea Randall and trained on his own they said. Feel for the kid.

Right at the end 1.30

Yeah I saw that, as they snuck that in at the end, and messaged a mate about it. Devastating.

He has Covid apparently? Would explain the isolation and looking upset?

Ok I watched it. I didn’t think there was much in the footage at all. Was expecting to see him sobbing or something from your description.

If he is Covid positive, is Cook as well? He had no sign of any injury last week?

They mentioned Cook has a knee injury. Didn't say what it was, though expect it to be only 1 week

Things can change in a short time.

Did you see him in the Dowling video? Was sitting just to his right. Dan looked naturally happy and content. And stoked for his teammate.

He still seemed quite happy and engaged with the squad

That's good.

Hopefully he wasn't symptomatic when sitting next to Dowling at his debut announcement.

Regardless of his thoughts on his own career, being part of an AFL club in his first year with his mates is always going to be enjoyable.

 

[mcleod at 50 lines it up]

if playing a high pick at full back in the reserves isn't a way to gain endearment from a player i don't know what is

but ofc in general many players once retired say how much they disliked moving and were unsettled the first few years, so in general no biggie i reckon, just with the crows you're never sure if they're going to get the tex walker, fogarty, mcasey etc spend your development in sanfl treatment

Where there's smoke there's fire... he won't be at the club past 2025. no wonder this rebuild has failed. 3 top 10 draft picks since 2018 burnt! Jones, McAsey and now prob Curtain with the reports that he is home sick....

He's certainly home, sick, today.

Someone suggested Curtin might be carrying something.

His boarding pass to Perth maybe?

 

[n4sir]

I'm still wondering WTF is happening with Curtin? So last week he's celebrating Dowling getting a call up to the Seniors... then training on his own with Chelsea consoling him, people thinking it's Covid? Nek Minnut, someone posts here he's pouring water over Sloane for the SA freeze Thusrsday night, and then out there playing today? I just don't get it? WTF is going on?

People heard Curtin trained on his own and just all started speculating it was because he had COVID. Nothing more too it than that.

Was odd people using Chelsea consoling him though as proof given generally people with COVID don't sit out there talking with other people.
