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

[cats_09]

Ask and we'll try our best to assist - so here's 2024 Provisional AFL Draft Order

As normal, would like to acknowledge & thank Lore for creating this, keeping it up to date and making it available for all users on BF to use and keep track of the picks ahead of the upcoming draft





I'll also sticky this post to ensure it's easily accessible for discussion of our hypothetical trader

 

[Kobe Gryant]

That's a fake account isn't it?

The guy has set it up perfectly for people who don't know there's a pisstake Tom Browne out there.

At a glance, 'Tombrowne7' looks far more legit than 'Tombrowne_Tombrowne' but amazingly, it's the second one that's the real one!!

 

[catempire]

Now to not overpay. Be strong Mack.

 

[CatToTheFuture]

I wonder if Geelong would be interested?

Not sure, we seem pretty stacked for midfielders...

#sarcasm

 

[Strange Cat]

Needs to improve his athleticism if he’s to make it.
He’s slow and lacks acceleration and has the turning circle of the QEII.
He’s a good mark and can roost a ball but that’s not enough to make it in the AFL.
Another thing is when he’s having an ordinary game he’s MIA. Had quite a few games this year where he had 5 possies or less.

I don’t know Hawkins made quite a career with pretty much the same attributes

Burke sounds a little bitter...

 

[Footy Smarts]

Burke sounds a little bitter...

Yep. Just imagine the amount Brisbane owes us for Lincoln McCarthy.

 

[year of the cat]

Burke sounds a little bitter...

Salty much...

 

[Strange Cat]

Salty much...

Yeah imagine a club not proving physio and medical attention just because you might leave would be a massive lawsuit waiting to happen

The guy is a imbecile

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Burke sounds a little bitter...

Surely this is paid for out of an insurance policy the league has

 

[Art Vandelay_]

We should throw our hat in the ring for him.

Heard a rumour at the pub on Saturday that we're in for him. First I'd heard of it, can anyone else confirm this new information.

 

[Cataholic]

Burke sounds a little bitter...

Isn't he going to Hawthorn Nathan??

 

[supahoops]

Can he ruck ?

Maybe forward, the knock on him is speed and athleticism so whether he can build a tank and work on his short burst is the question. Definitely not close to Neale but could compliment him one day, looks a bit like Jacko from back in the day and more suited to an 80’s style game right now.

This is the most stupid thing I've read from him

Normally he's really good, in that he's on top of things and the points he makes are really valid - especially regarding the AFLW

I'm curious what bought this on

 

[Munich]

We should throw our hat in the ring for him.

I thought it was already a done deal.

 

[Cataholic]

I thought it was already a done deal.

There's a bit of banter because the announcement is such a 'surprise'.

 

[Munich]

There's a bit of banter because the announcement is such a 'surprise'.

Oh right haha.

Didn't he buy a place in Geelong a few weeks ago. I thought he'd be more the Torquay type but maybe not.

 

[Cataholic]

That's the rumour.

I think we'll have a lot more clarity as soon as Geelong's race is run.

 

[Boxhead_31]

Yep. Just imagine the amount Brisbane owes us for Lincoln McCarthy.

And Nakia

 

[Boxhead_31]

That's the rumour.

I think we'll have a lot more clarity as soon as Geelong's race is run.

Or if Port knock Hawthorn out this week

 

[Cataholic]

They might suppress it to avoid distraction?

According to James, he bought in Bellbrae

 

[Munich]

Yep. Especially for someone coming off an ACL.

[Jumping Jack]

Salty much...

Burke still has brain trauma from when Ablett Snr nearly killed him one day at Waverley.

He overlooked an important piece of information - Smith is currently contracted through to Oct with the Bulldogs. Whilst he’s a contracted player it’s the clubs contractual obligation to provide all necessary support to the contracted player.

Not a difficult concept to grasp for anyone with a functioning brain.

Will be interesting to see how the Dogs play this out.
