Re: Rumour Thread
GC have to cull their list and will take minimum picks...
By offering 3 picks where they're likely to use only 1 or 2 with omeara and acquisition is probably why

Re: Rumour Thread
Bains said if the deal is right pick 13 could still be on the table.... but would it be Caddy? Or is there anyone else? If we gave those picks to Suns, we'd want another player! 13, 24 & 34 for the two we want and Toy or Weller... or maybe 13 & Gilbert for the two... not sure... they might just be pushing their luck for this week or until we get our BJ compo and then they'll get serious...
If Caddy is worth two first round, Hickey a first rounder, Wellingham for 17, then Ray must be worth Dees second rounder at least based on that... I'm dirty that WC are playing hardball with Crippa and Brown... I still reckon Stevens for Cripps and the pick for Luke Thompson is a better deal...

Re: Rumour Thread
As much as I'd like to keep Faz, if he's going to move on, I' love to do this trade. I remember that Gysberts was an absolute ball magnet when he first started with the Dees racking up big numbers and looked like an established player, not a rookie. I think he'd be worth a punt....probably sick of getting nowhere at Melbourne and just needs a fresh start.St Chris wrote:Jordan Gysberts supposedly on the trade table from Melbourne.....probably being used as a filler for either the Dawes deal or the Hogan Mini Draft deal, but could we get in first and use Farren Ray in a deal to get him????
21 year old midfielder, reasonable foot skills???

Re: Rumour Thread
Gysberts in his 3 years at Melbourne has averaged 20 disposals, 4 marks and 4 tackles per gameSuperDuper wrote:Agree, Gysberts is good.. get him
Had a decent 2011 (15 games) however was curtailed by injuries this year - firstly an ankle problem that kept him out for 5 weeks and then a broken jaw in his comeback game which kept him out for another 5 weeks (both earlier in the season)
After this he played a further 11 games with Casey (in 8 games he averaged over 20 possessions per game) and 1 further game with the senior Melbourne side
Obviously it seems he is out of favour with Neeld (reasons??) considering he played 15 games the previous year whilst racking up some impressive numbers as a 19/20 year old.

Re: Rumour Thread
And as other FA compo picks get allocated even further back....so pick 50 may become say pick 54 or whatever.Sobraz wrote:which will be pushed up to 14 when we get allocated 13... every spot will move up one from 13 on....santazzi wrote:We sure do not have 13.

Definitely worth a punt, I would rather get Gysberts than Caddy to be honestWatts the Buzz wrote:As much as I'd like to keep Faz, if he's going to move on, I' love to do this trade.

Re: Rumour Thread
We may go for Gysberts, Jacobs, Stevens, even a trade for Moloney on the cheap if we miss out on Caddy.. but doubt we'd trade for any mids prior to Caddy deal being done (wherever he ends up).
Just on Brown... didn't hear it but Eagles are emphatic that Brown wont go anywhere... geez I hope this doesnt bite us in the ass with Crippa walking for zilch...![Rolling Eyes :roll:](./images/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif)
Just on Brown... didn't hear it but Eagles are emphatic that Brown wont go anywhere... geez I hope this doesnt bite us in the ass with Crippa walking for zilch...

IF Cats get him as 3rd rounder I'll be filthy.
Any thoughts on his disposal?

Re: Rumour Thread
Cripps & 13 for Brown, Stevens & 38
24 for Jacobs
34 & 38 for Hickey, Toy & 44
Ray for Gysberts
Leaves us 43, 44, 53 & so on plus 6 pretty handy players under 24.
Won't happen though!

Your first one might, if we were to offer it. I don't think we will though. 34 & 38 for Hickey won't happen, let alone Toy.sax wrote:Cripps & 13 for Brown, Stevens & 38

If we do the first trade then out list management stuff should immediately be sacked.

I hope Ray stays. Saints should play hard ball as well.
I hope we get all those and Caddy but it won't happen.

Re: Rumour Thread
@RossLyon29: We just offered Pavlich, Sandilands, Fyfe, Hill and Pick 16 for Caddy. Gold Coast knocked it back.

Re: Rumour Thread
Maybe we should do another deal with GWS. Give them a couple of players for pick 20 and Jed Anderson. I know they are interested in Jackson Ferguson, who is a local boy for them.

Should not trade 13, dont think we will get caddy with 13 unless with threw in Dal, Joey and Zoo as well.
I think we will end up with Hickey and maybe Brown but not much more, good to be wrong though
I love this club

Re: Rumour Thread
cats still have that compo for ablett yeah?
i know they used one on billy smedts
so they have pick 15 which would get pushed out a few wouldnt it with the compo port and we get?
so theyd get another pick straight after their first rounder???
surely they wont pass both on to secure caddy
prob one and a second rounder???
theres a fair bot of hype over this caddy
not sure its entirely warranted![Question :?:](./images/smilies/icon_question.gif)

Re: Rumour Thread
Yeah, but they can't use it this year - you have to lock it in at the start of the year. They can trade it, though, but it will always be locked to Geelong's finishing position in whatever year it's used.matrix wrote:cats still have that compo for ablett yeah?
Re: Rumour Thread
I personally think that we should just give up on Caddy, and try recruit someone good with our pick 13...
Unfortunately WCE gave up their pick 17 as we could have traded crips and 13 for brown and 17....
anyway, it is the best pick we have had in years seems like we should back a youn'un to take us forward

Re: Rumour Thread
thanks berg
so technically they can still use it and pass it on with their first rounder to snare caddy
bit much i reckon if they went that way
i reckon we might hear something about where caddy is going today
and lets sort this tippet and dawes stuff out
so theres no chance of it holding up other trades
tippett
what an over rated hack
wants near on a million and dawes has better stats than him and is younger!
dont see him asking for 800 tho plus
tippett
lol

Gold Coast have to use at least 3 picks in the draft, same as all other clubs.Batnoe wrote:GC have to cull their list and will take minimum picks...

I think their list has to by cut by 4 as well. So thats 7 seven players they need to cull.
