Would love him at tigerland for 2 years.
His presence and professionalism isn't something you can buy readily.
Would be a huge positive influence on the youngsters......
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

BREAKING

There is news emerging that Paul Chapman will not be offered a new deal by the Geelong Football Club, and as such Collingwood, GWS and Richmond have made direct contact with Chapman's management and will make a play for the three-time premiership player next week.

I'll just ask a couple of questions and people can answer how they choose.

Does everybody or most agree that Azza and McGuane on the list now just make us competitive until McBean demands a senior gig week in week out with Azza and McGuane just being foot soldiers at best?

Chapman feels he has something to offer, Geelong think its time to turn over their list and introduce more youth now and avoid bottoming out something they have done successfully for about 40 years and avoiding the bottom 3. With Nahas nowhere, King struggling and neither of those boys being played in the midfield with any degree of success would Chapman if he comes cheap be worth it given he is a 3 times premiership player and could bring added leadership? As long as we don't give up early picks and can trade players for them then why not. I think it may benefit us and improve the whole list not just on the field but above the shoulders as well. Just a thought guys. :thumbsup

We should get him (if he comes cheap) and hopefully when he does retire in 1-2 years we have a ready made replacement in McDonough. Would offer a wealth of guidance to the team as well off field as well as being able to contribute on field (when he isn't injured).

If Geelong do not offer him another contract, he becomes a delisted free agent and can sign with who he pleases? Is he already a free agent?

When you last left Monk you said you weren't coming back. Why the backflip?
