News McGuane to Brisbane.

[Grockadoc]

Announced on trade radio on the AFL site McGuane will most likely be heading to Brisbane. He will be on trade radio shortly.

 

[Greggy]

Heading home to Brisbane.

McGuane: I've played on the number one forwards in the comp when Richmond were struggling so I'm capable of going back.

I remember we also lost by 100s of points when we were struggling Lukey.

 

[Tigermick17]

This move I'm ok with. He's heading home and will be handy up forward for the Lions. Good get for Leppa.

 

[PuntRoadEnd]

No great loss as Edwards has taken his spot
Best of luck at the lions luke

 

[jstone]

Thanks lukey - hung tough during some hard times and deserves some oppertunity. All the best mate

 

[Grockadoc]

So with White and McGuane leaving as free agents what kind of compo can we expect? An end of first might be a bit overs but I'd say both are worth second rounders.

 

[The Goon]

Would have liked to keep him for depth, but you can't begrudge a guy going home and likely to get more opportunities there. Not that it really matters, but what's the lowest level of compo you can get under the FA rules? Nothing?

 

[Grechy]

Fringe players are realising it's going to be much harder to break into our squad and are looking for more oppurtunity. This is what I'd like to believe anyway.

Good luck Luke.

Seeya Lukey, Thanks for the memories good and bad

Even that is a stretch. All about their contracts. White is worth a 2nd rounder. McGuane a 3rd if we're lucky.

I'm also curious about this, azza has taken lukeys spot and then the big BEAN will be in soon so this is not a big loss at all

 

[R.F.C 4 life]

Wish him all the best, he always had a crack, and I guess he played his best footy in the last 2 years but this may be a blessing in disguise. Free's up more cap space, Tuck, White, Mcguane, and more likely to be others including Nahas, and Stephenson, maybe we can have a serious crack at billy longer or another un contracted player.

About 300-350k in the cap.

 

[Ralll]

No spot on our list for Luke with McBean coming through and Edwards overtaking him so good luck to him at Brisbane.

 

[nobulltiger]

Will be missed

 

[Terry Tan]

The only good game I remember him playing was against Port Adelaide in 2010.

Goodbye & Good Luck.

 

[nobulltiger]

Will do a Shulz for brisbane

[RICHOLEGEND12]

Good luck Luke been a good servant of the RFC.

 

[UpTheGuts]

Ahh, good times

 

[Ned_Flanders]

Post lol

Or a Tambling at the Crows, Collins at the Blues, Putt when re-drafted from the VFL, Polo at the Saints, or even Gus at the Crows.

Every year we hear "mark my words, we will pay for letting this guy go, he'll prosper at ABC and we will be a laughing stock yet again"

9 out of 10 times, these guys disappear to local leagues

I don't think we will be crying over the premiership exploits of McGuane - He's a role player, nothing more, and he has been surpassed by Edwards
