Players being linked to Richmond - Rumours

[Oiafi]

I still find it hard to believe though that we stand up say how we are going to be very much involved with the trade week and then out of every player that has been available so far, none have even been linked to us. How the hell does that work?? I would just like someone to be linked to us...hehehe..

Seems they did a good job with the silicon gun.

Brennan has left Brisbane as well. Gold Coast are interested but they can't get him as an uncontracted player as they've already signed Rischitelli from the Lions. GC will need to trade for Brennan like everyone else.

What about David Hale?

PORT Adelaide may have secured its coach for 2010 but is still trying to finalise the futures of Daniel Motlop and Steven Salopek.

The pair has flagged an interest in leaving the club, with the Power hoping they decide to stay on under new coach Matthew Primus.

ADELAIDE recruiting manager Matt Rendell has confirmed the club is targeting Carlton pair Andrew Walker and Sam Jacobs ahead of next month's AFL exchange period.

Rendell revealed the Crows had also put in calls to Matthew Pavlich (Fremantle), Ryan Griffen (Western Bulldogs), Shannon Hurn (West Coast) and Beau Waters (West Coast) - all South Australians - but none were willing or able to leave their current clubs.

The Crows and Power have also been monitoring another budding ruckman in Sturt's Jonathan Giles.

Giles spent four years at Port Adelaide but failed to play an AFL game and was delisted at the end of last season.

The 22-year-old has since switched from SANFL powerhouse Central District to become one of the premier ruckmen in that competition.

A strong rumor is that Brennan to Richmond with GC trying to put a spanner in the works.

Brennan should have come to the club last year, he would be welcome still but not for draft picks, swap Polo, Nahas..etc.

[Hellenic Tiger]

When media outlets come up with articles in May that we will be active at trade time whether it be true or not all uncontracted players, unless they are on their way to the Suns there will be rumours based on those articles that they are coming to us.

What about David Hale?

No chance. We discussed this last year and it would be a waste. Bloke has no impact on games. Struggling at North and is not worth it when we have our own key forwards and ruck in Jack, Griff, Post, Vickery, Graham, Browne. Would be against the philosophy of Hardwick and would be a waste of a draft pick. WOuld not even trade for a player for player swap with Hale.

Would cost too much and does not fit the age bracket we are looking at IMHO.

Isn't he only 26?? Wouldn't really think that age was too far out of our bracket. Don't think he will cost that much either, I mean if they tried to play hard ball too much he could go through to the PSD (out of contract players and recycled players) and we could pick him up there with our second pick.

Voss is stupid, but not that stupid.

Polo and Nahas have no value.

Tambling for Brennan maybe???

[WA Tiger]

We all know that once an out of contract player names the club of his choice he usually ends up there. The biggest high profile player that did not go to the club of his choice was Nick Stevens... I think. That was many many years ago.

If Brennan names Richmond we will not have to give up much IMO, if Voss isn't that stupid why did he get Raines... and for 3 years!!

Heard on the news over here tonight that Essendon, Carlton and the Tigers were ready to throw a lot of money at Mundy... Carlton has now been linked to recruiting every player in the leauge... have to love the salary cap....  ??? ???
