Man these Josh Giddey rumours are wild on Twitter

What happened?

 

[dexter_]

What happened?

Allegedly slept with a 15 year old.

 

[Nothing]

Allegedly slept with a 15 year old.

Please say when he was 15 too.

 

[EastcoastDocker]

Allegedly slept with a 15 year old.

Does he support st kilda?

 

[malpaso]

Allegedly slept with a 15 year old.

Very hard to tell in the US, some look 22 at that age there esp. in the south.

I wonder what the chances are of the AFL removing the warning for the team that breaks,infringes on the 6-6_6,rule.
The rule is now four years old,going into the fifth year.Why do the umpires still have to warn the infringing team.
Surely now is the time to pay an immediate free kick against theinfringing team.

Especially seeing teams are now gaming the system for an advantage (surprise, surprise) 'Did it on purpose': Debate erupts after Collingwood's dodgy act comes to light

Always thought they should keep the warning for the first half, and then it's an immediate free kick in the second half to prevent time wasting.

Plus the other component is that it immediately stops a bounce, with a guaranteed ball up which can suit certain ruckman in close moments.

That country Giddey is in has been led by worse people.

Awwww, the Eagles got Harley a stable pony.

That’s what friends are for! Harley’s best mate joins Eagles

West Coast’s latest list move is set to make star draftee Harley Reid’s welcome to the club even smoother, with the teenager’s best friend joining the Eagles set-up.

To be fair, we did that with Lachie Neale when we also drafted Alex Forster.

Except Neale was supposed to be the stable pony and ended up the thoroughbred.

Wait for his mum & dad to get a gig.

How many number 1 draft picks have actually won premierships curiously is there actually many.

 

[King Huskii]

Not many if any

 

[Ysaye]

How many number 1 draft picks have actually won premierships curiously is there actually many.

Looking only at 2000 - current:
2001 - Luke Hodge
2013 - Tom Boyd

Quite a few that have played in grand finals though.

 

[Paracleet]

Not many if any

Hodge, Banfield, Headland, Boyd. At least 3 were on lists when their team won but they didn't play (Gardiner, Cooney, Fraser).

Tom Boyd was traded as well 1 year into his career to the Dogs.

So you could technically say Luke Hodge is the only player to go at Pick 1 and won a premiership at the club he was drafted at this century.

Nothing like getting on ya mates Coat tails

Man, the media ( The West ) obsession with Reid is something to behold. The poor kid will have people going through his rubbish bins soon.

Puts the hoo-ha surrounding Nicnat to shame.

I'm sure itll die down when he plays a game and is shown to be human. Right now he is pure potential. Although if he is as good as they hype him to be, well then we may never get a front page ever again.

I don't know if you'd use the "coat tails" phrase if you are playing in the Eagles WAFL team. That is like being sent to Coventry.

Widgemooltha Wombats would beat the Eagles Reserves !!!.

 

[Nodgey]

The Slime are worried he'll head home and pulling out all the stops. Reeks of desperation to me. First they get Nic Nat involved and hand him their 'sacred' number. The pressure is on now - how dare he consider abandoning the No. 9!! Now they bring his mate over. Looks like a salary cap rort to me...

He probably will already have a HJ’s franchise gifted to him
