Rumour Thread

[St Ick]

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???

As a swap, certainly. I'd also consider ray + 3rd rounder. I think he's quite a talent.

In the age they say Gysberts to Cats for late 3rd rounder...

Is it just me or do these guys seem like hicks taking the gold nugget to the big smoke and swapping it for a magic bean? they are so embarrassingly incompetent it hurts. They were trying to give the Pies pick 3 for Dawes and wellingham now they want a 3 rd rounder for someone that is a developing mid? They might just be lucky they have about 10 selections in the top 30 because you only back them to get one right.

Someone posted this on Bigfooty. Not sure of the source, but if it's true...wow.

'News coming through is that the Saints have offered their Brendon Goddard compensation pick (13), pick 24 and pick 34 for Gold Coast pair Josh Caddy and Tom Hickey.

Gold Coast have reportedly knocked back the deal.'

[Ralphy]

Wow.... GC really are turning into utter tossers

I am glad they knocked it back, it's too much. Let's keep our picks.

[savatage]

There is no way we would've offered that. We're not run by morons.

hey, they must really rate them if they were going to do that and I would suggest some down graded picks would come into it too. They would get some guys that are half way there not 4 years away and with Lee and brown would almost get us a ready made coast to coast line that should be ready to go from round one. I would almost do it if they agreed to it if we think the Brown deal could be a goer.

We also can't offer a draft pick we don't have, don't forget!

This article is spot on

GC are out of their minds if they think they are going to get a better offer than that!!

Thank god they knocked it back I would have been outraged. Please don't get Caddy St.Kilda he is so overrated it's not funny go after someone else such as Ben Jacobs he will be much much cheaper and possibly just as good.

[paddy]

seems possible, but probably not 24 and 34 maybe 24 and 43?

gcs are playing pretty hard ball, i kind of hope that they play too hard and caddy walks on them now....

I would prefer to keep 13, and trade 24 and 34 and cripps for hickey and brown....

where is caddy going to play/ who is he gonna keep out?

[MC Gusto]

That deal sounds unlikely

[sainterinsydney]

For them to turn that down makes it seem bogus, to me.

[noob]

With all these trades are we seriously going to have any picks left to draft 3 players?

Clarke, Ray, Jones -------> fire sale
blake ---------> fin

we currently have 9 picks available.

[rexy]

There's no limit to how many picks you can have at the end of the draft, might end up with 81-83

We sure do not have 13. I read somewhere that the Demons have flogged it on to the Giants for some 17 yo from the west and some other incentives ehrown both ways...........

which will be pushed up to 14 when we get allocated 13... every spot will move up one from 13 on....

Why do we have to?

[SaintWodonga]

We should target Giles. GCS are proving hard to deal with, asking too much for Hickey. With SOS at GWS, I think we can get a deal done for Giles instead of Hickey... Thoughts?

Why do we have to?

I thought it was a minimum ? or is it 2?

I thought you had to delist 3 players.

[Teflon]

Yes to Gysberts - good age and we also need midfield depth

If Cats get him for 3rd rounder it's a steal - especially if they land Caddy also

Gysbert for Ray plus 3rd our way it's done!
