Is the TW still around, surely he has lost all followers aftera few years of terrible “inside” intel

 

[Howard Moon]

Don't make me fact check the whisperer...

I thought we covered this - all sources are good when they tell us things we want to hear???

 

[DallasCrane316]

I would recommend against that, it would take the fun out of the Gaff news.

To think he's still covering the ground better than poor old Alex Johnson was.

The more I think about it the more we must go for Gaff. We really need to exploit the lack of need to trade here and pick someone up essentially for free. BJ was on big coin and no doubt the likes of Green, Jerrett, Leuenberger and a few others we are yet to dump are on a few hundred thousand between them. We could feasibly land Gaff, Shiel and Setterfield for our first and second rounders (plus perhaps a few trimmings) and be an absolutely formidable force next year.

All hail Dodoro if he pulls off this coup, and if he does we must erect a statue and change our mascot to the Dodo bird immediately.

I want Gaff now as our first priority. Big fish as a free hit.

I’d like Gaff but I honestly believe if he leaves he’ll look after WCE and therefore I think he’ll need to be traded for.

However if not I’d hope we have our hats in the ring.

Won’t Eagles be compensated with a pick if he leaves as a free agent?

 

[Mr Mojo Risin]

Won’t Eagles be compensated with a pick if he leaves as a free agent?

Yes but it’d likely be a pick far lower than what value he’d be at the trade table.

 

[BrunoV]

Have no interest in Gaff.

Absolutely none.

What, Colyer and a third rounder?

 

[Howard Moon]

Cant see no Xavier Menzies there

Just revisiting this post

I see Shiel and Parker both there, I keep thinking shiel would be a better get because hes younger than Parker who feels like a crusty old veteran.... Now I see this and assume they must be at or around the same age?

Interesting.

Parker is 6 months older than Shiel.

 

[foj1]

He has presided over a list that hasn't won a final for the longest stint of any afl club except Gold Coast. It is questionable how he has held his job.
He has had one good trading year in 18 odd years.
I hope you are taking the piss or you enjoy mediocrity.

Gaff will cost pick 8. No chance WC don't match our bid.

Edit: FWIW i think he becomes a Roo.

I totally think he was 100% seriously suggesting a statue of Dodoro actually be erected. No really.

Luke Parker just confirmed on his Instagram that hes staying put
