    They haven't de-listed him yet and he's had a year off to get better.
    Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
    Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

    Maybe you should sign him up to Annie's Allstars?

    McCartin, Ronke, Papley, Dawson, O'Riordan & Armtey who I reckon has an excitement factor about him even though he hasn't played senior game as yet.

    With the impending retirements next year of Macca, Reg & Jack I reckon we have short term cap space relief covered if we land a big fish like Gaff & Moore this year. For the long term, Buddy has only 4 years left on his contract by my calculations, which means we could soon start offering back ended contracts if any of our young uns become bonefide stars. You also have JPK & Smooch entering the over 30 bracket, which at this stage we don't know how many seasons they have left in the tank (quite a few I hope!).

    Is the Gaff to Sydney based on anything more than RWO hope?

    Not really, no.
    But are any of the unconfirmed stories more than rumour and speculation at this time of year.

    Yeah, nah.
    Can't afford him.
    I have a salary cap, just like everyone else.

    Tony Sheehan didn't rule it out when I asked him directly. I think we are having a crack

    Where did I say that Gaff is a mummy's boy? I didn't. I made generalised comments about footballers in general and we were right. I fact, the players I had in the back of my mind were players like Rocca, Grant and most of the GWS and GCS players who have gone home to Victoria.

    .
    They were mummy's boys who were using it as an excuse to leave a club they weren't happy at. I think Gaff's situation is a little different. You're 'generalised' comment seemed to be pointing straight at Gaff, seeing you were championing Barry's 'sooky Gaff' comments. Judge not, lest etc.....

    Annie has heard a number of "rumours" in this thread. Best not to bite

    That does pretty much sum up your comments, Barry.

    Annie is just reporting faithfully what she hears when she talks to herself.
