Michael Hurley?
On 3AW this morning at about 7.10am, on the rumour file Ross mentioned twice that the Saints are after Michael Hurley and are prepared to give up a big name to get him.
Anyone hear it or know anything?

Re: Michael Hurley?
he is alleged to have bashed a cab driver and is expected to be charged on summons. i would say that he would be off our radar on those grounds alone.robbie muir wrote:Anyone hear it or know anything?

We'd probably have to give up Kosi and one other quality guy (who Essendon believes would get a regular game with them), or Kosi and our first round draft pick. May still be worth it, though, unless Kosi gets back to his best on a consistent basis.
As someone else said, Essendon would have been/would be planning to build their team around this guy, as long as he's not in jail. We'd be a much better chance of getting Gumbleton, I expect.

I reckon I have a better chance of running out at CHF in Rd1 2010 than St Kilda does of even talking to Hurley's management.
Hurley is their new Lloyd. He'll be there for life FFS.
Have never used FFS before. It feels good.

"The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break in the game. Every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'
Why would they have to be cleared up? The young man made a mistake and will get a slap on the wrist and a small fine.BaysideSaint wrote:legal issues would need to be cleared up firstly before any bleeps would emerge on our radar .. until then - no bleeps.
Dissapointing to see a young man do what he did however nobody knows why it came about or the fault of either party involved.
Love him at St.Kilda however this clearly will not happen. The Saints and the Dons are 5+ difference in their core unit of players both clubs sees as premiership contenders. The only winner out of the trade is St.Kilda at getting Hurley. By the time the dons young core have become middle aged like ours the player St. Kilda traded will be ineffectual and most probably retired.
I imagine you'd still have a soft spot, but I don't imagine Michael Hurley turning up to a St Kilda game with his scarf on yelling, "CARN SAINTERS!"AnythingsPossibleSaints wrote:All of them?OLB wrote:

This one goal Hurley kicked against Hawthorn round 22 stands out.
Outside 50, he swings around on his left foot and puts it through.
Who decides to use their wrong foot when going for goal from outside 50? That's rare.
Reincarnated became excited for the first time in months at the thought of Michael Hurley swinging around on the left from 50+ out and slotting one through for usOLB wrote:I imagine you'd still have a soft spot, but I don't imagine Michael Hurley turning up to a St Kilda game with his scarf on yelling, "CARN SAINTERS!"AnythingsPossibleSaints wrote:All of them?OLB wrote:

Pure talent. He wasn't forced to use his left, he chose to. I can't think of anyone off the top of my head who does that.reincarnated wrote:Reincarnated became excited for the first time in months at the thought of Michael Hurley swinging around on the left from 50+ out and slotting one through for usOLB wrote:I imagine you'd still have a soft spot, but I don't imagine Michael Hurley turning up to a St Kilda game with his scarf on yelling, "CARN SAINTERS!"AnythingsPossibleSaints wrote:All of them?OLB wrote:

Well I'll throw this in.
This is from someone close to Essendon.
Three way - Williams to Essendon, Lovett to Port, Burgoyne to Hawks - deal trying to be done and Williams happy to be going to Essendon.
Would this effect the Hurley trade at all?

Lance or James??
There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

"Someone close to Essendon", or a mate that lives in Moonee Ponds?

The big winner is the hawks in that deal - IF - it comes true.
Look, these things abound at this time of year. Williams was at Windy Hill the other day and the deal is being worked on. May not happen - just throwing out what I heard - take it or leave it - doesn't really matter though does it?
