[rocker_oz33]

We are linked to pretty much everyone.

Ollie HENRY would a great Rohan replacement IMO.
I think he'll be better than Freddie kugurer.


B.Scott won't cost much ..where's he play ? Wing.

Hooper like him.

Grundy ? Melb keen aswell.

McKenna flight risk .

B Scott will be a good outside tye. We need those for post Tuohy, Smith, Duncan era. Same can be said about McKenna even if he is best at HBF, he can play wing for sure.

Even if McKenna is a flight risk, which I don't think he will be because of his age. Even if we get 2 seasons from him, that's our window still.

Plus Menegola not young ..

I'm not agaisted Scott .

 

[CatRiot]

I think someone on here mentioned Scott ain't that good with his disposal... well, he's running at 78% Disposal Efficiency... that's pretty decent, also a pretty low Clanger rate. He has an engine too, plus he ain't slow.

How many games this year?

Disposal efficiency takes two to tango too and he's finding a target 78% of the time in one of the worst sides in modern history.

 

[00VicWard001]

All 3 in the team are contracted and we wouldn't be trading any of them. It doesn't make much sense for it to be Rohan. Evans isn't really speedy. If they're talking about Evans or Williams it's not really worth media hype is it?

Everything is worth the the hype and if it’s a contracted fringe player - the Cats will let them go to clear list space for our own trades.

 

[catempire]

I actually reckon it's true. I don't think we have a b22 spot for him

Reckon he could get Rohan’s spot before long.

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Define long though. If you trade him in he's not playing vfl for a year

 

[catempire]

Well, I’d play Henry every game (or say 20 games) in 2023. Most of those at Rohan’s expense and the balance covering injuries.

 

[#6 Thorp #7 Selwood LOL]

Mhmm yep. The Geelong kid who has a brother on our list and has been rumored to want to come home since the day he was drafted is yet to sign a contract... and we are "just keeping an eye on things".

 

[Isaac Norm Smith]

I reckon he's locked and loaded. I have no Intel and frankly no idea, but the fact he hasn't re-signed in the whole two years he's been there is quite telling IMO.

I reckon he's gone.

 

[D BRIDGE]

I reckon he's gone.

He certainly wouldn't be in a rush to sign with the Pies if other sides are knocking (especially us).

Because he isn't even getting a game + they will almost definitely bring another forward in McStay.. and even Bobby Hill.

Pie's offer would be low for sure... You can't offer a guy that's not in your best 22 much, especially when you have cap issues and are bringing in 1 or 2 more forwards that you already have ahead of him.

Sure they'd wanna keep Henry, but just might have to take a deal to move him on... Hopefully, we can get him for a good price.

Surely we are involved behind the scenes in some way... Although he appears not to be our 1st priority (Hopper).

I reckon he's just waiting on Grundy to get traded out so he can ask for more money

Let's see how Rohan goes this finals series first

Geelong already has one speedy Irish defender in Mark O’Connor, but the Cats have been looking at ways to add more pace and run into their side.

Yeah definitely possible his manager has advised him to do this, but there is a chance he's coming I reckon.

But as others have said, we're all in on Hopper as our main priority.

Just another example of modern day quality journalism..

Yeah completely agree. If we could somehow pull off Hopper and Henry...wow

To live the dream would be to get Henry as streak knives in a Grundy trade and Bruhn a steal knives in a Hopper trade.

I'll put down the crack pipe now

And I haven't even mentioned steak knives yet!

Pretty sure pies have a offer on the table for him and it's pretty low.

He's prob looking else where.

They got Freddie kugurer and McSray whos going there on all reports .

Young H will prob better than both those guys.

 

[Hamingja]

I wasn't big on Henry in his draft year and I wouldn't go all out on him now. Those 3rd forwards are always tricky. He has AFL level talent for sure but it can be hard to find a place for them. He has basically been given the Menzel treatment by the Pies due to lack of defensive pressure.
