Rhys Stanley & GWS

[Con Gorozidis]

I am getting a real strong hunch that Rhys Stanley is signed and sealed with GWS and is more than likely "playing dead" for us.

I still suspect he may be a gun.

Anyone got any thoughts/info on
this?

[Batnoe]

I have a hunch that u will come to lord stanley friday night?

[Stillwaiting]

I hope you hunch is wrong Con. Do you have any reason other than a hunch to think this will happen?

[Spinner]

Hahahahaha

Well then everyone at GWS should be sacked.


Recruiting a 10 game third year player that struggles at times in the reserves.


This would actually be good for us. Would stop them chasing players like Goddard.


Logic not prevailing in this thread unfortunately.

Are all AFL players with hamstring injuries playing dead?

Exactly. If they had any thoughts of getting BJ they arent going to go after a guy who has basically done nothing. I would love to know why Con has this hunch because there isnt a lot of logic in it. If GWS were into Stanley then they must be into at least 150 players because that is about where he should be on their list.

Based on no information whatsoever. Pure speculation on my part. And pure hunch.

Not sure how BJ is relevant?

Id say Rhys would go from like 100k with the Saints to 200k or something like that with GWS. So a small fish in their salary cap.

Don't be so negative.

BJ is out of contract next year. If they got Stanley this year they couldnt even bid for BJ next year so it is relevant.

Unless we trade Rhys to them or if Goddard is traded to them next year if Rhys goes as uncontracted....

Isn't the talk around Goddard more about trading (for 1 of the 17 year olds) for him rather than a uncontracted player?

[Con Gorozidis]

I think there are a few trade scenarios. And the rules around what GWS can and cant do have a certain looseness about them.

bj wont go anywhere imo

he is going to be loyal to us and see out his playing days with us
he will be our next capt and lead us to another flag

stanley wont get picked up i dont think
he hasnt exactly been dominating in the vfl due to injury

id be chasing joey as well if i was GWS

I have a hunch that hunch is on home detention.

[dragit]

What is the compensation like for an up and comer like rhys?

4th round?

Sheedy asked Joey point blank on AFL Game Day if he was interested in 7.5M over 5 years.

Joey said thanks for the offer but he was staying at Linen House Oval.

[matrix]

incorrect
he said no to 5 million
said prob no to 6 million
and laughed at 7.5 million

Pretty decent money for someone who according to some one here is…
"…a down-hill skier, who only beats up on lowly interstate teams, doesn't win his own ball and fails in big games"
pffff

Maybe the post was meant to read: 

"I am getting a real strong hunch that James Gwilt is signed and sealed with GWS and is more than likely "playing dead" for us." 

[lurker#134]

Whats the odds that Sheeds will try and dud us again?

Nothing i wouldnt think.

GWS are going to need more goers than Rhys. Anyone with re-occuring hammy injuries would be of immediate concern. Only a couple of AFL uncompetitive games and not ripping up the VFL. I think that I would be looking elsewhere if I were at GWS.

I'm not saying hes a marquee signing for them.

You are though as he will be one of only 16 picks and the one from our club. Surely there are 100 better options.

Lets take confidence from Chris Pelchen's reputation. He has a reputation for keeping the players he wants and removing those he doesn't.......


..........And not being afraid to step on a few toes along the way if he has to !!
