Re: Michael Hurley

Tom Browne reported that it's down to us and Essendon. He said we're making a big push but thinks he's likely to stay at the bombers.

The longer it drags on the better we start looking.

Throw the kitchen sink at it. 5 years, good cash, legal help and a meeting with Bevo, Bob, Bonts, Tom Boyd & Stringer with Prismall & Crameri at Peter Gordon's house. This is a huge result to be down to the last two, but it's for nothing if we can't seal the deal.

Re: Michael Hurley

Ok wasn't sure where to post this ...my boss who knows nothing about footy was having breakfast at a cafe yesterday and sitting next to her was "that Essendon guy" and a young guy and they were talking about changing clubs..how difficult it can be.
She is certain she heard the Bulldogs mentioned and how "he is a great bloke and they would look after him"
Have no idea who the player was but have worked out it was Worsfold.
The player drove off in a jeep.

Re: Michael Hurley

Interesting, thanks for sharing.

Was it Worsfold who was commenting that the young person was a great bloke, and that EFC would look after him? Or was he suggesting that we would look after the young player and that someone at our club was a great bloke?

Re: Michael Hurley

It's Hurley then. Michael 100% drives a Jeep. I get twitter info all the time from him about Jeeps. We are good detectives aren't we.

From what I'm hearing we are more likely than unlikely. The jungle drums are banging. Having Crammers and Hurls next year and a full list will put us in Premiership contention.

Ditto this question.

But we must be close, if Worsfold is meeting with him. Is the coach and his banned player allowed to meet under the suspension terms?

Re: Michael Hurley

But isn't Hurley overseas?
The coach was suggesting that the person in charge at the new club was a good bloke and that the club would look after him.
When I heard the Jeep thing I immediately thought of Richmond but she was pretty sure that the player was leaving rather than being courted..who knows I showed her heaps of photos but to no avail!

Re: Michael Hurley

ABC radio uploaded an interview with Bevo today on Twitter (sorry don't know how to link it).

We will be 'on the front foot with Hurley', and
'how could you say no to a player and a person like Michael Hurley', and
'we won't coerce anyone, it's up to them to look at their past and up to them to look at their future'.

Re: Michael Hurley

I think he's still o/s by all reports.

The question was asked on a forward option to cover jacks injury, and he said we'd be looking closely on a short term option.

Heard the interview. I wonder if this is where the interest in Vardy comes into it.

Re: Michael Hurley

It might be someone they're trading out to secure Clay or BTC.........

Re: Michael Hurley

I listened to that and the one on SEN and he makes a point of saying That it's not just one player but all of those Essendon players that have yet to commit...would there be another one we are interested in?
