Riewoldt to Essendon?

[RIGGA12]

I was just informed by a pretty reliable source that Nick Riewoldt is sick of the Saints and through all of the clubs troubles this year he wants out and possible with his friendship with sheeds a move to essendon. 80% sure of thsi one. Comments????? anybody else heard this?

 

[DonMania#5]

Is Gerard Healy on 3aw your source?
If so, that is not a reliable source

 

[ManWithNoName]

It was Gerard Healy on 3AW. And we obviously need him, with our complete lack of tall forwards

Who said Riewoldt plays as a KP forward.

 

[Darealrath]

Healy is a smart bloke but I can't see this happening. If we're going to be after anyone of his price I'd rather it be a midfielder.

 

[RIGGA12]

It wasn't Gerrard Healy

You want him in defence, next to Mal ? Be just like old times.

lol, good call. its a partnership no one could have imagined.

Was it Tockley? if it was, then Reiwoldt, here we come

 

[MmkMrMackie]

Why start a stupid thread like this. You've already got Courtney Johns, Lloyd and Lucas in your forward line. Why would you even consider getting Riewoldt?

 

[monty1104]

UMMMM, because he is a good player. Im sure if WCE offered you Judd, you wouldnt say "no thanks, we already have Bartel, Ling, Corey, Ablett and Chapman. Nice of you to offer though"

 

[Wahooti Fandango]

Gumby has the potential to be as good as Riewoldt so lets just wait for him to develop.

 

[High Ryder]

If Riewoldty wanted to come to Essendon you''d move heaven and earth to get him, no doubt about it.

 

[bomberstomake8]

i very much doubt he will come to essendon... with lucas lloyd, johns, gumbleton, even KB down forward as tall targets we dont need another.. of course his reiwoldt so it would still be positive however it is more likely for us to get the likes of dal santo or judd than reiwoldt...

 

[Broady Poker Tour]

I'd take Dal Santo if we had the choice

 

[bomberstomake8]

if that happened lucas would probably be moved to the backline i think..... we cant keep gumby and johns at BB forever and we dont have room for like 4 tall forwards.

adding to that reiwoldts manager was asked on the footy show if nick will leave the saints next year and his manager just walked away and said no comment, seemed like he was hiding something so i recon their is truth to that rumour.. wouldnt be suprised if the eagles got reiwoldt and judd went to st kilda..

would that be an even trade???
i personally think reiwoldt will be more value to WC than judd would to st kilda given that the saints already have a decent midfield adn WC lack a real dominant forward..

I think you are all missing the biggest problem with Riewoldt coming to essendon...

How the hell would we tell him and McPhee apart???

HAHA yeah i forgot about that. shit commentators would have some trouble wouldnt they, i remmeber when they were both in the international rules in 2004 i think and whoever was calling it at the time kept screwing it up..

 

[go team]

Cornflakes to coach Essendon in 08?

 

[BABYBOMBERS2007]

What a forward line.

Hird, Lucas, Lovett
Gumby, Lloyd, Riewoldt

 

[Tonche]

i very much doubt he will come to essendon... with lucas lloyd, johns, gumbleton, even KB down forward as tall targets we dont need another..

Crazy talk. No idea if Johns will end up making it and in 3-4 years we won't have Lucas and Lloyd. Gumby is probably a safe bet though.

Would be a monumental pickup for us.

 

[The Dustbin]

What a forward line.

Hird, Lucas, Lovett
Gumby, Lloyd, Riewoldt

Alwyn?

 

[BABYBOMBERS2007]

Alwyn?

Too true, forgot bout him, replace Lovett with him.

Hird, Lucas, Davey
Gumby, Lloyd, Riewoldt

 

[whirl]

Hird, Lucas, Davey
Gumby, Lloyd, Riewoldt

too many talls.

take gumbleton out and put Lovett back in.

According to Mero on blitz Healy has got his Nick's confused.
