Rumour GFC 2018 Player Trading, Drafting, FA, Rumours, and Wish lists - PT4

[Mr Blicavs]

crap footballer couldn't get a game with Hawks no better than Murdock,thurlow etc

Yuuuuuuuup

 

[00VicWard001]

So far we’ve lost:
McCarthy
GHS
Thurlow
Gardner
Gregson
Black
Crameri

Gained:
Rohan
Dahlaus
Krueger
Picks 42 and 70

Held onto:
Menzel
Scooter
A cooked Taylor


And I thought this years list was paper thin. Can hardly wait for 2019

All those you've listed as players we've lost were not in the senior team apart from random cameos. Dalhaus and Rohan are best 22 in their previous AFL teams. I'd say we've gotten rid of some players that were just not going to make it in our team and replaced them with ready to play senior players.

 

[BigCat1]

Thurlow wasn't being offered a contract. Quite rightfully we received nothing for him.

Good luck to him but not sure what the swans are doing.

 

[rocker_oz33]

What sort of name is Teia anyways.

 

[BigCat1]

Teia Miles would be better than anything we get at pick 70

We won't be using 70. We will have prob 3 picks and Brownless. Maybe two if Kelly stays.

Miles Vs Matty Hayball

Miles.

Go Catters

 

[CatRiot]

Isn't Miles a DFA? Do we need to use a draft pick on a DFA?

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

Do you think before you post?

 

[Stan The Caddy]

Yeah, he's worth more. But we didn't get bent over. We helped him get to a another club.
You do know the difference?

I hope that's a rhetorical question...

 

[CatRiot]

On the Kelly trade again, the more I think about it, Pick 20 + 22 + 2019 First rounder, for Kelly + Our 2019 2nd rounder = good deal.

But I suspect we have one more year left with this list, so they will keep him, then its proper rebuild start.

 

[CatRiot]

Pick 70 = Extra points available for Brownless; not that we would've needed it, as Pick 59+60 would've been plenty for him.

 

[Larry Donohue]

Congrats to Thrurlow.
The kid can play and was treated like shit at Geelong.
Hope he sticks it to us.

Scary proposition really. Rampe, Mills, Grundy, Smith, McVeigh, Thurlow.

While retaining perennially injured players.
Can’t wait for the injuries of Menzel, Cockatoo, Scooter, and co. to kick in again .......there’s no one left to bring up. Not even for cameos. This is the thinnest list I can ever remember.

6 out > 2 in.

You forgot LLYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD .

 

[Deeskys]

They are trying to free mills into the midfield. Went for langdon, failed and have now gotten Thurlow. Fair play

I can see Thurlow getting a regular game at Sydney mate. Geelong shit all over him while he was here and never gave him a good run at it

Same but a cat fans have already responded to me that it wouldn't be good even if we didn't give anything back. Clearly some cats fans won't be happy unless we get pick 1 or something absurd like that.

 

[Moggy]

Thurlow for pick 70.
We just got bent over!

Mmmm, the trick now is to trade that pick 70 to the Pies for Grundy.

Get it done, Cats

That's what I meant. No sarcasm attached.

No way does a re build start while we have J Selwood, Dangerfield or Hawkins.

Hawkins and Selwood both 31 next year. I think Selwood will drop off more, and will definitely need a new position if he wants to extend his career imo. Hawkins probably could go another 2 seasons without a major form drop off, if no injuries.

You keep referring that he was shit on by Geelong. Is that because they played him in the twos and didn't see him worthy of a spot in the ones?

 

[hamG]

Are we contending or not? Our moves this trade period look like we are pretty happy with the status quo. There is so much talent bouncing around the trade tables and we were not interested in any of it.

The brains trust at the club obviously think we just need to tinker around the edges to be thereabouts or improve next season.
