Can't say I've seen this kid play much, did see he was named this week.
GWS Liam Sumner roumered to want a return to melbourne and his first preference is to play for the pies in 2015.
Will watch him with interest this weekend.
Probably sub so wont see a hell of alot.

I hope this is true! He hasn’t to this stage shown any inside ability but as an outside mid he has the potential to be very, very good. Has really explosive pace and can break lines easily and carry the ball great distances. Incredibly agile and can dance around opponents and spin through tackles easily. Very high skill level and finds targets by foot consistently. Can influence the game with limited touches. Tackles well for someone fairly light and shows some potential there.

Really thought Hawks could've held on to Jordan Lisle. Hope he gets another chance somewhere.

Esp if Leuneberger is #1 at the dons

Just personally I reckon the story by Tom Browne of Ryder wanting to go to Brisbane is BS. There are just so many different aspects to the notion that simply don't add up.

Like the fact why would he want to go to Brisbane??

Talk Looney may head to WA

$$$$$$. They have a war chest apparently

Talk Looney may head to WA

Freo need Paddy Ryder, fwd/ruck. We chased Mitch Clark as well and Sandi can't have long left.

Ryder was offered plenty of $$$ from GWS a couple of years ago but resisted. He is currently contracted until the end of 2016, so two more years to run. When he signed his latest contract 2 years ago it was reported by the Herald Sun as being for $2million for the 4 years, so lets assume that would be $500,000 a year, would the Lions be offering significantly more than that?

Plus the Lions would also have to come to a trade deal that Essendon would accept, it's not like he is uncontracted and they can force the Bombers hand. Further the Lions have Leuey, Martin and West, even if one goes it still doesn't make much sense, unless they want to use Ryder as a forward. While Paddy is a decent forward he seems to play much better when playing as the sole ruckman.

Next he is from WA, so if he was to move anywhere surely it would be back there one would assume. From all reports Ryder is quite the family man, why would he move his own kid and fiancée to Brisbane instead?

Now there are two other things I have considered. First he is managed by Paul Connors. This is the guy who notoriously manages his players by leaking to the media that other Clubs are interested in paying big bucks for his clients. It is just the way he operates. Is he trying to pump Ryder's wages up after his best season? Secondly Ryder is getting married in North Qld during the off season. Has the reporter added 2 plus 2 to get 8?

Anyway I could be wrong, but my gut tells me I will be watching Paddy play in a red and black jumper next year.

There is a massive rumour that Collingwood has expressed high interest in hard-nut Blue, Mitch Robinson!

 

[Brettthejett]

From facey

Um no thanks wouldn't surprise me though they have gotten a couple of other useless recruits the last few years

 

[BC]

Could do with a hard nut. Cant name..... any since leigh brown lol

 

[PC]

Robbo would certainly add the tasty spice of stupid to the Collingwood team...

Not sure why Eddie, sorry Bucks would want him - he is a spud imo!
