Rumour Tales from the Henley Beach Cafe: CROWS 2021 RUMOURS

[CutAboveTheRest]

From what I've read it seems he's only contracted till the end of 2020?

Scrap that SuperCrouchBros - managed to find an article on foxsports that says he's contracted for 3 years.

Stengle suspension 6-10 weeks? That seems extremely over the top and just shooting ourselves in the foot, but are we worried about media backlash if we don’t go hard?

Should be no matches imo. He wasn't charged with anything. The AFL PA won't allow a suspension more than a couple of weeks as it's a health issue. The only difference from the majority of other players that do it during the offseason is that he was stupid enough to get caught. Spare us the false outrage AFC.

 

[hey shorty]

Bickley is such a square dick.

He said the other day Crows supporters would want to see the players severely punished because they’ve done the wrong thing and it involved coke.

I think most supporters who aren’t 80 realise coke is just part of life for a lot younger adults with money.

It would be rampant in the league so why should our players get smashed just because they were caught.

I mentioned that via text, unsurprisingly it didn't get to air.

I'm no fan of drugs but I'd be annoyed if we gave either a huge sanction. I'd say going by the market rate on similar issues he gets a 2 game ban.

The getting caught is the issue.

 

[hey shorty]

Drugs are bad but not as bad as cheating on your wife and mother of your kids. Bicks should pipe down.

Keerrrrrrbang.

Essendon have said that they'll match any FA offer for Daniher, so will want Brisbane to trade for him instead, because their compo would be too shite. So yes, Essendon could take Crouch as a FA

essendon are not taking crouch FA they lose their daniher compo which will be pick 8! we onky interested in losing him to band 1 compo

I think we should pause our judgement until an offical announcement

Personally my gut feeling is his ban will consider the requirements of the drug policy and again he has again found himself in trouble two off seasons in a row

If he copped 4 weeks club suspension last time, I cant see Stengle getting anything less than 4 weeks

Shit empty threat that one. Daniher isn’t staying at the bombers.

Can always take Daniher in the PSD then. Give him a chance to get back to his best and flip him for a first next year.

I'd be surprised if they did match any offer.

He doesn't want to be there, has played less than 20 games in 3 seasons and is clearly a destabilising influence on the club. Rutten probably has his bags packed for him already.

If Essendon are smart they'll let him walk, the FA compo is likely to be higher than any trade deal they will get.

Weeks not games. Can play again by Christmas.

Ah, the Impey suspension!

Lol bringing in Fantasia to cover Stengle's suspension. What a wank.

With Orazio's body and our fitness program, Stengle will be back on the park before he would be.

and may as well delist murphy then if they are thinking of bringing in Fantasia to take a small forward spot

 

[crow2crow]

He is 100% under contract.

hes under contract to 31 dec 2020
that doesn't mean anything for next year

Seems Stengles biggest crime is the fact hes now caused us to consider Fantasia, not the drug possession.

Thats not when player contracts start or finish

they talking about burgo

 

[SaltPeter]

they talking about burgo

Carry on

 

[jackster83]

Why?.. because we’d end up with the compo pick?..

not sure what you mean by this..

Because any compo they would get for losing their free agent (Daniher) would be either reduced or eliminated completely if they bring in another free agent (Crouch). Would mean our picks don't get pushed back.

 

[radiojake]

Stengle's DUI was a much bigger issue than his "drug bust" - that had the potential to injure someone else

De Goey is still allowed to run around and ne deified despite a goddamn sexual assualt charge hanging on his head

We have so many of our collective priorities misplaced

Stengle is more likely to get busted again then Fantasia playing for us.

 

[crow2crow]

if they truely are going after parfitt (which i personally doubt he will come) then neither fantasia nor stengle are in the best 22. AFC might be looking at fantasia as a backup if they cant get parfitt not as a backup for stengle...
