Rumour GFC 2024 Player Trading, Drafting FA, Rumours and Wish lists Pt 2

[Klink]

The thing with Darcy (I don't want him) is that even if Freo kicked in money for his current contract, ala Pies-Grundy, the man himself clearly doesn't want to move.

You don't sign a massive deal until the end of 2030 just 12-months ago, if you aren't seriously invested in the club and the location.

He has clearly established himself in WA and made it home. He obviously likes living there and has committed to remaining there for a long time.

That ship has sailed for so many different reasons.

Tbh I think that’ll be his play, next year he’s with us but I can see him requesting a trade to Carlton.

Or his brother requesting a trade to Geelong

 

[Pure_Ownage]

The modern day Mitch Brown

Lol how can he still be on a list? Clearly they have given up on fullarton.

 

[Cataholic]

He's in the wrong profession.
Giving on Cristiano Ronaldo vibes as ripped 'part time model wannabe'.

Well I hope he makes footy his sole profession if he comes to us.

 

[Munich]

?

Oh it's just me perving.

Nothing Geelong-related

 

[CatToTheFuture]

My wife was looking over my shoulder.

Awkward conversation? Yes there's a legitimate reason I'm looking at this 20-something male models abs!

 

[cats_09]

Um. Bazlenka's insta today.

The boxing or when he was getting in & out of the pool...

The good news for us is to afford tdk and sdk carlton would have to trade out one of their good A graders cap wise so we might end up with a decent trade there. But wont be til next year.

Not the boxing...

 

[cats_09]

I assume hes been told marshall will play fwd. Maybe we could lever marshall out of there next year?

I'd rather chase Marshall than Soldo

Not sure it was the abs being looked at

For all the talk of 'we need a ruck' I think we can use Tom Campbell

(as the most recent example) as to how little clubs rate ruck stocks. The footy stats book I have referenced a few times shows the relative irrelevancy of hitouts to winning and we have clubs literally willing to fill their lists with any old tall bloke, or any state level journeyman just in case.

I am still firmly in no need to go and get a ruck.
We have Conway, Stanley, SDK, Blicavs, Edwards and Furphy on the list. Getting someone else just stunts Edwards and Furphy's growth and development potential for no discernible gains.

I swear I was straight 4 minutes ago

 

[dangerwood]

Me: I'm just looking for hints he's going to play for Geelong.

Her: Where's the clue? In his pants?

Nup, you caught me

You are also left with a VFL team that becomes the land of the giants. Not a balanced team at all.

 

[cats_09]

Nup, you caught me

Let's be honest, it's a bit hard not to look

It's also not exactly a clip that's safe to post here - maybe if we had an 18+ section

If anything we need a project KPF.
Cameron another year over 30.
Neale now in the senior team.

Hawkins and possibly Rohan off the list. Foster and Bradtke (not on the list) is poor depth for the position imo.

 

[Stocks_go_Up]

Sick of getting humped in the ruck... Stanley couldn't even beat Daniher FFS.... His days are over

I'm just glad I waited till the end.

Good lord.

Definitely a looming need. Cadman would solve a few issues if there is an veracity to the rumours we are into him. But otherwise we need to be looking to draft a kid. I'm not sure that Foster is going to be an AFL player.

I can see why Bevos pushed him out

To be fair it was our mids who couldn't read his palm downs, he was actually trying to place it

 

[MisterMarcus]

Cockroach of the AFL this bloke. Cannot be killed.

By all accounts, Campbell is a fantastic bloke and terrific clubman - you read comments from Doggies, North and Saints fans, and they cannot speak highly enough of him as a person.

I guess that goes a long way.

Maybe those teams should try and pick good footballers for their lists instead of good blokes.
