Draft Rumours

Post by afisher »

Having wasted a little time on the big footy site and digested and then "threw-up", the litany of rumours (everyone bar Josh to go), I was wondering if anyone here had some rumours that may have a reasonable basis (some credability), and could share them with us. Who could we get (subject to deals) and who will go to get them.
From my perspective Im hoping for a Spider Everitt (not sure of his influence on the young blokes), but he could fill the hole in the ruck where we probably lost a top 4 (and hence any finals ) appearance, but there would be some pain (good players to the saints) to get him

I have been to the AFL.COM rumor file a few times. Really stupid rumors, half of them are about Tarrant.
"Tarrant to Freo?"
"Tarrant for West"
"Tarrant for Moorcroft" etc...alot of crap.

I keep reading that we are interested in Corey McKernen.
Oh God, Collingwood, haven't we wern't from McKee?
McKernen is a hack that is past his prime. Half way through the year he was dropped from the Roos side, then came back, kicked a few goals, and that was it. Don't be interested in him, he will last 2 years, if that. We should be busting our gut to sign Spider Everitt. Who can play ruck and kick goals. Im sure the fact that he is at a new club would inspire him, especially being that he would be at Collingwood.

I have heard from a fellow Pie supporter in BigFooty chat that Tarrant and a draft pick will go to Freo for Pavelich and Black. But im not believeing anything yet.

I've heard a few goodies - hope this one happens - Tarrant to West Coast in exchange for Cousins! He 'apparently' misses Mick and West Coast need a new forward after loosing Mitchell White to Geelong last year.

Haven't heard the Tarrant rumours, although apparently Pavlich wants to go back to Adelaide, and Black wants to come back to Melbourne.

What I have heard is a fairly involved trade deal.

Everitt to Collingwood
Nick Davis and Barry Hall to Sydney
Andrew Schauble and Nic Fosdyke and 1st round draft choice to St.Kilda

If this doesn't happen, we are supposed to be interested in Greg Stafford. We could sweeten the first deal by telling both St.Kilda and Sydney that we wont mention McKee in the trade, and we promise to play him in the matches against them. Worth at least 2 good players.

Listened to Nicks dad interviewed on ABC radio a couple of weeks ago. Nick is happy to be at CFC and Craig Davis says that although he lives in Sydney, works for the AFL and supports the Swans, he still barracks for Collingwood and will always be a Pie at heart.
So no real chance of Nick wanting to leave, or his father moving him (ala Jason McCartney).

Of course if St Kilda required him to be swapped for Everitt, what do we do?

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Nick Davis is a future leader of the club and a class act. Everitt is worth getting but not at that price

We can't trade Nick Davis. He is all quality.
We need a ruckman but not at his expense.
