The benefits of being the Premiers, hey?

Balls in our court over how hard we wanna go at Geelong.

Trade the 2018 premiership plus Jarrod Brander.

Stop underrating him

 

[kaiserchief13]

Lycett or Gaff compo only. If they don't accept throw in Nelson or Partington as well. If they don't agree they can keep him

 

[woosha24]

Stop underrating him

2018 + future 2019 premiership then?

 

[Belltower]

Knew about this a while back, have a connection to his agent

Will be great but will have to pay more than we will get for Gaff, Lycett and Gaff likely the same compo doesn't make sense. Size and length of contract a massive difference and also Gaff is AA and won a F& B, I thought all that is supposed to make a difference

 

[Carbine Chaos]

I think the Gaff compo and a future second rounder would be fair. Maybe a swap of later picks as well.

Will fit into our side very well.

Depends on Geelong's outlook. They could be arseholes about it and be known as "the cut-throat club that doesn't think about player welfare", and in a way I would respect them for that, but then they have to sideline Kelly for a year and keep paying him. Theoretically they could trade him to Freo, but then Freo assumes the risk of having a player on their payroll that may not necessarily want to associate with them.

Based on previous experience I think both clubs will look to get it done. If we gave Geelong Pick 20 + one of our compo picks for Gaff/ Lycett it would probably see the deal done, and it honestly wouldn't surprise me if that's what eventuates.

will be massive if we land him!!!! the guy is a beast!!

The AFL takes all of these factors, and many more, into detailed consideration in a series of intense meetings over a period of weeks, and then they throw a dart at a dartboard or something to decide it.

How’s this guy’s body hold up?

Has he had injury history?

Shitting myself that we’ll pay heaps for him and he’ll struggle to get on the park

 

[Truckosaurus]

They can have Gold Coast's 2nd rounder. It's an earlier pick than the one they drafted him with and in a purportedly better draft pool.

Played every game for Geelong this year. In his last four years at Souths he played 23, 20, 18 and 20 games.

Nail on the head!

 

[Crimson King]

Wow wee. We could be looking at the ballsy decisions made through the 2017 trade period/draft as the most pivotal period that set us up for years of sustained success down the line. OAllen, Brander, Ryan, Ainsworth, Pet, Hammer and now Kelly.

This would 100% get the deal done. Just very badly, we'd be giving up way too much.

Pick 20 plus a Nelson or Partingon
or Pick 20 and maybe 36

I wouldn’t be surprised at all if we give up two compo picks and maybe ask for a late pick from Geelong in exchange.

We’ll pay a lot for him - the club’s not going to play hardball

[ChampRevesby]

So hopefully Gaff and Lycett call time soon so we can get Kelly in the door asap.

Ixnay on the ealthyha. Injury concerns could be the equivalent of a 'Darling Tent'. I like where FKASC was going.

I'm also concerned about his ability to get on the park...wink wink... Anyone else concerned?

 

[Schismd]

Has anyone read the cats statement about it, claiming that “he is highly likely to stay at the club in 2019”.

Legit sounds like Chris Scott wrote it after being informed of the news. Pouting and sobbing

Meh. Posturing. Every club's doing it.

Gold Coast said they wouldn't necessarily let Lynch go without matching. Five minutes ago Steve Rosich just said they wouldn't take pick 4 for Neale.
