    suck shite, sorry, but seriously.

    Weller reminds me of a young Gryffen but better above his head.
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

    McCarthy is contracted until the end of 2017. Going to take something very good to make this deal happen.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

    If we can facilitate some pain back, great. Getting a good player, even better. All these high draft picks mean nothing for GWS when they line up to leave.

    How his head office taking this? Dixon, Bennell, Treloar, McCarthy all turning their back on pretend 'made for TV' clubs.

    He's a pretty big Freo fan by all accounts .
    This has Tom Boyd written all over it, and no doubt Wastelands will talk tough then release him.

    With all the excitement of our finals appearance, the 8 announcements then Dalrymple & McCartney, this may actually be the biggest news of all for us

    We've always thought we were building a great side, we just thought we were about to run into two mega teams full of first rounders

    They are looking more and more depleted by the day

    Everytime I see Cam McCarthy I think of Cletis from The Simpsons.

    GWS have confirmed via Twitter that "despite media speculation, Cam McCarthy has not requested a trade and is contracted until 2017".

    Ah, the memories!

    (this was followed by Barrett tweeting confirmation from McCarthy's manager on the record, and then a GWS player tweeting a picture of them all sharing a beer together...right before Toby Greene and Devon Smith started brawling with each other, probablu)

    Weller rocks and would really help us nail that 13-∞ female demographic in our marketing efforts.

    BUT; on instagram, McCarthy said (and I quote) "im not fu#king leaving". So there's that in the way.

    He was at a pub with some of the other GWS players, and given what had been posted on Callan Ward's page the last few days I'd imagine it was a similar Facebook hack.

    Apparently the McCarthy offer is 700 large per year!
    More of an In Bruges guy?

    He'd be crazy not to chase that hard. I love the legacy of the Gryphon trade is GWS contracted gun players feel they can demand to get their trades on big money. If they hadn't of poached him, the Boyd example of them folding wouldn't be there to follow. What that thing akin to the law of cause and effect....

    700 is crazy overs for mine. McCarthy was a handy 2nd banana to Cameron when GWS were going ok, but from what he's shown to date, he's just not big or good enough to be the focal point and take the main defender (unless Freo have someone else in mind as well).
