Josh Rachele ?

Been dropped by the Crows and looks like a major fallout is brewing.

Yep. Been thinking about bringing this up. Is there a issue here? And what is it?

He is a young gun. 21 years old, kicking 30 goals a season, chases and tackles hard. YES PLS!

But as if Crows are dealing.

Well, comparatively, he's probably more gettable than Petracca!

But Rachele, Schultz, Elliott AND Hill in same F50 may not gel; one small too many?

Is Rachelle a 192cm key defender? No? We dont need any more small forwards. The club is awash with them.

KPPs. Trouble is we don't have much to trade and zero draft capital.

Thank you goose Derek Hine! :evil:

He’s got an attitude problem. Anyone who was happy to see Ginnivan go should have the same view on Rachele in the name of locker room harmony.

Agree with others - we have an abundance of small forwards.

Can't understand how the club hasn't been able to get a sniff of Battle. Why is Hawthorn suddenly the place to be? Smashing the Roos btw, 80 to 14, 4mins till half-time.

Actually, probably just shows how confident we are in Keane coming home.

Elliott is 32, so 2025 may be his last year. If he were available, 100% go for it.

Mark Keane is a 194cm Key Defender. He is in our sights.

He has been a Geelong target for a while now, no hope he gets to us.
Human behavioural studies suggest people who use a lot of swear words tend to be more honest & trustworthy.

No Bolton, thanks. Fails the character test. (Of course, there's no risk of getting him anyway. But just saying...)

Been like that for the last 2-3 months I'd say. We fell out of the race pretty quick.

Is Keane suddenly a magical improvement on Frampton? Then why bother?
I'm actually sick in the guts any time a hot ball is anywhere near either of them...
