Trade Whispers / Rumours and Confirmations

[crackedactor]

Rory Lobb perhaps? Heard a rumour mid-year that we were keen on him. WAFL ruckman for Swan Districts.

I noticed this article in the yesterday's newspaper prior to Mummy signing with GWS.

But Sydney, which has had enormous success developing former Canadian rugby player Mike Pyke and could lose out-of-contract ruckman Shane Mumford, is also circling Lobb.

Lobb's endurance is elite for a tall, having clocked 3km in less than 11 minutes.

The developing ruckman is expected to shine during testing at the AFL draft combine next month.

Who is James O'Connor

Played with the Wallabies. Huge talent, recently sacked for off-field issues.

Neil Cordy confirmed Armstrong, White, Mummy and Everitt were out the door.

Membrey will need to work on his fitness base, going to be hard to snag a forward line gig

What a hypocrite Eddie is whacking us then going after Riewoldt. Reasons are obvious didn't have his act together Andrew Ireland and Colless embarrassed him with hard work now he is desperate

From that article, Lobb sounds like an interesting prospect, but not one that is ready to come in and be ready to play senior AFL footy next year.

Veszpremi delisted. Maybe we should rookie him?

[Dosser]

On SEN this morning, the news in WA was that Freo are into Sam Reid. The news was from Tim Gossage.

[Reggi]

I would think Freo more likely into Jesse. He would be smart to go there Collingwood are a rabble

Would be funny. Everitt out Veszpremi in. Back to the future.

[AnnieH]

Vez.
Funny.

I can still be damaging: Veszpremi - AFL.com.au

At the end of the article he says that he's mature enough to move interstate (again).
Not to us he's not.

Clutching. At. Straws.

SEN just announced there will be a significant announcement from Freo at 3pm today. Hope it had nothing to do with this.

[Industrial Fan]

Would swap Reid for Fyfe. That would be good news.

[ernie koala]

Why would Reid agree to go to Freo, when the talk has been he's been a little homesick ?

Sydney is a lot more accessible to Melbourne than Perth.

I don't know - maybe it is a furphy and they are going to land Jesse White? I know Ross was interested in him.

[Panttz]

I think we might be able to squeeze him in the pocket somewhere.
