Prediction Draft rumours

[Turbocat]

Twomey thinks the sun shines out of Vic Metro kids compared to the rest so carries a fair bit of bias. He seems a nice guy and his articles are very readable but i wouldn't back for him for inside info to the same degree that Quayle had.

how often is he right a couple of weeks out... he seems to wait till the last moment.. as much as possible..

Betts ( FA) play his junior footy with Cannons , Lycett (FA)
Troy menzel was crab at Carlton , offload to Adelaide for pick 28 and Kerridge .

Wce wanted lycett to stay and he came home. Troy menzel was not crap at carlton and was a dangerous forward that was tempted home and betts was a SA boy that also rejected the chance to stay in victoria and come home. Wingard put off others in the draft toensure he got to an adelaide club who since shafted him and they will rue it. Point is that there have been SA boys that have come home it is just that there are less of them playing than vic kids. If you go back i could list darren jarman, matty robran, tony macginess as very high profile players lured back to SA.

Lycett going for the money and contract length Eagles can't offer better deal due to Gaff and Jeremy contract extension.

Yep but they still didn't want to lose him

What are the different between Rumors and Fraud ?

I just think he is a fraud because he and his employers title him a draft expert when he clearly isn't.

Like a poster above pointed out, he interviews a lot of them - I don't consider that a draft expert.

It's like calling Hutchy and Barrett AFL experts (yes I'm aware that title in itself is fraught with ambiguity but you know what I mean).

Woulda thought Suns take the King boys and sign em long term and reboot and market the side with them as poster boys.

Bit hard to reboot the image when they be in the neafl for 2 years.

This is for draft rumours not personal opinions

Cal Twomey - he is a victorian isn't he?..funny how it is only the vic kids that seem like the flight risks yet the interstaters who everyone else sees as flight risks are somehow fine. Part of a strategy on their part to make sure their best kids get to stay in melbourne?

I doubt Cal Twomey is part of a media conspiracy to shape the recruitment decisions of non-Victorian teams (as if recruiters would consider his opinion above that of their own staff, eg. player interviewers). He goes for Essendon anyway, and they're nowhere near the top in the draft

 

[Sidthehat]

For some reason Caldwell to the Suns at 6 is the one I believe most.

 

[TradeDraft]

I look forward to reading a bunch of bs rumours based on nothing and no sources.

Just like During Trade Period

 

[TradeDraft]

Collingwood will get Quyanor and Kelly BUT can't name my Source

 

[TradeDraft]

Cal Twomey is the biggest fraud in the AFL media. He doesn't even attend U18 games regularly throughout the year, he simply watches highlights.

Moral of the story? Don't listen to Cal Twomey.

Just have to see his Father/Sons and Acadmey Prospect he Ranks

Nope.

Menzel wanted to stay at Carlton.

Carlton wanted him gone (and for good reason).

Nah..he wanted to play for the crows and jumped at the opportunity

Really capitalised on that opportunity didnt he? There was/is something else going on with him behind the scenes that hasnt been reported in the media. We needed him gone and he needed to return home.

I normally doubt randoms on the internet, but C4's notoriously on the money with this kind of thing. I'd definitely back him with this one.

There has been a number of connected opinions that Rankine is on the slide for 'reasons'.

As long he isn't waiting at Wet N Wild.

Not school holidays, no lines so should be ok.

True or tourists.

I have no doubt Menzel wasn’t wanted at Carlton, or more so Carlton wasn’t overly disappointed for a trade to eventuate. This isn’t really news, it was known at the time. Adelaide just thought they could turn his mindset around, they were wrong. Troy only has himself to blame.

This is for draft rumours not boring talk about troy Menzel.....get off this forum.

 

[adammania9]

Dunno if this means anything, but Rozee did comment this on Lukosius’ second most recent Instagram post

He could not get himself fit. he was one of your better players that left the club at the time

Fair enough although the article offers a different take
