Let's move on about the conversation about Grundy, we are out of the race for him...

I don’t reckon we’re just quietly

 

[Isaac Norm Smith]

I don’t reckon we’re just quietly

Intel or gut-feel?

 

[calder_daddy]

Intel or gut-feel?

Gut
Last night doesn’t hurt the situation either

 

[pussygalore]

Gut
Last night doesn’t hurt the situation either

I say let's look at TDK instead

 

[foxdog50]

I don’t reckon we’re just quietly

Why do you say that?

 

[SuperVolley11]

I say let's look at TDK instead

Pretty sure we offered a first rounder for him already and the blues knocked it back. A year or so ago.

 

[calder_daddy]

I say let's look at TDK instead

Well there is history there so it’s an option

Why do you say that?

Just a feeling
Stanley sat on the bench for a lot of the last 1/4 last night

 

[Strange Cat]

I swear if they give Stanley another shot in the prem and he gives no intensity or hunger for the ball that’s his paper stamps…even if we win drop him

I’m sick of it and just hoping last night game was due to a lack of game time leading up to the finals

Why give him another shot.
At least Ceglar will run through Gawn

SEN’s Sam Edmund reported last month that the Cats were “invested” in acquiring Hopper’s services and AFL journalist Damian Barrett expects him to wear the hoops next season as Geelong has “done a lot of work behind the scenes”.
“They are still a mess the Giants when it comes to the salary cap,” Barrett said on Nine’s Sunday Footy Show.

believes that’s a tough start for Kingsley to arrive at the club after losing two key players.
“It’s a tough one for Kingsley,” Cornes said.
“You get the job, and then two of your young best midfielders move out again.”
Hopper is currently contracted until the end of the 2023 season at GWS and will need to be traded this off-season to end up a Cat.

[Gee Class Loco]

Why give him another shot.
At least Ceglar will run through Gawn

And Gawn will run him outta puff by the end of the first quarter.
The guys tank is as big as my big toe.
His athletic ability is that of a elephant.
Stanley has done really well in about 80% of his games this year… he was bound to have a shocker.
a bit like the shockers Blitz Hawk Tuohy and Stenge had… Big picture not small required here.
Cheers Larry

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Slightly surprised Callow got cut by the Hawks.

Understand the point.
Stanley has the weakest marking hands on a ruck I've seen.
My big picture is there
Just want a big m an who can clunk and hit to position
He is neither

And yet with him we've risen to the top of the pile this year. He must of been doing something right yeah?
He has played a fair few good games this year.
When he's on he's gonna make a win a lot easier is all i know.
Cheers

To be fair cegs had the mcg as his home ground for 9 years and ran out games well there so he can do it-the question is after an injury interrupted year does he still have that fitness base or would he run out of puff? Its a big question mark i agree.

What do you think we'll be trading to get this deal done? 2 knees?

 

[calder_daddy]

What do you think we'll be trading to get this deal done? 2 knees?

We kneed to offer something half decent

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Have you read this thread? I definitely seen people rather Rhys and Ceglar over Grundy and say Rhys backup.

People would rather Rhys' contract and zero pick trade in price over Grundys contract and trade in price. It's a little more complex than player versus player

 

[CatToTheFuture]

To be fair cegs had the mcg as his home ground for 9 years and ran out games well there so he can do it-the question is after an injury interrupted year does he still have that fitness base or would he run out of puff? Its a big question mark i agree.

Ceglar has played 40 games at the mcg. Stanley has played 38

 

[fpm84]

If Hopper is a done deal I can only assume that Selwood is definitely retiring.

 

[CatRiot]

2022 AFL trade week will begin on
Monday, 3 October
and ends on
Wednesday, 12 October

Silly season officially begins

 

[CatRiot]

I wonder if giving Pick 18+46 to GWS for Hopper + 39 is doable?

 

[CatRiot]

If Hopper is a done deal I can only assume that Selwood is definitely retiring.

I think so. Probably with 97.5% confidence too.

 

[CatRiot]

I wonder if giving Pick 18+46 to GWS for Hopper + 39 is doable?

Probably not, unless they get picks before 39 in other trades... But maybe Pick 18+60 for Hopper + 57 is quite realistic.

 

[jnrburger]

So assuming Hopper is done (and pick 18 with nothing else involved would be a steal - GWS cap issues or not) as Selwood retires, it leaves us with two other issues - key defender depth, and a transition / supporting ruck for the gap between Stanley and Ceglar retiring, Conway being able to come up.

Plenty already said re: ruck options, but what about key defender depth? No room to pay up if getting Hopper (and potentially targeting Grundy) - so need to find a cheap KPD backstop option to sit in VFL.

Outside draft options, was looking at the swans list. Melican or Gould perhaps? Either one would likely only cost us something like R3 or R4 pick and not much on the pay scale. (McAsey is the other one sitting in SANFL but others seem to be already into him more).
