Gibbs to be #1
Gibbs to be #1
No surprises there is there?
Wow Carlton...you are going to offer him a 3-4 year deal, he;s under no obligation to sign anything over a 2 year deal.
Just because you offer it doesn't mean he's going to fall over himself to sign it.
Lets fly Mark Murphy over there to convince him that Carlton will be a good team.
Got the makings off a good midfield with Walker, Murphy and probably Gibbs, but they will be nowhere near as good as they would if something resembling a decent ruckman on the list.
Besides if Gibbs' Dad as any control over him whatsoever, he'll be going back to Adelaide in two years time, and really at the moment Carlton don't have the team, culture or stability to make anyone overly confident of their long term viability either on or off the field.
Take Gibbs complain when he goes home in 2 years time, you still don't have a decent ruckman and Luenberger is tearing it up for another team you idiots.

See, this is why Caroline Wilson is a fool. You cant give a rookie a 4 year deal, they can only get a 2 year deal.bombercol wrote:It was in the Age today that Carlton have officially told him and they're apparantly going to offer him a 3-4 year deal.
Any speculation is well and truly over.

Tried to.
Rumour was that Collingwood were offering him the same, but under AFL rules, they couldnt.
Im pretty sure thats the rules anyway, its to avoid the farce that happened in the NBA with Glen Robinson.

Nah that would make too much sense for Sheedy.BenDoolan wrote:Say hello to Lachlan Hansen everyone.....
We need a key position backman so we will probably be taking Joel Selwood at number 2.
Which I wouldn't mind if we can be sure he was over his knee injury.
But really, the top end key position players in this draft are just to good to pass up...and there will still be very promising midfielders available at 18 and 20.
Better be Hansen/Gumbleton with pick 2...with me leaning strongly towards Hansen.
I can think of plenty far more concrete reasons why she is a fool.Rossoneri wrote:See, this is why Caroline Wilson is a fool. You cant give a rookie a 4 year deal, they can only get a 2 year deal.
You couldn't fool your own mother on the foolingest day of your life with an electrified fooling machine.
Carlton F.C. knows that if they do not draft Gibbs the supporters will bloody crucify them.Anyway i am glad they're taking him,i'll be much happier with Lachlan Hansen or even a Scotty Gumbleton! We will win out big time in this years Draft.SO lets ALL get over this Gibbs obsession,he is not the be all and end all of Midfielders,we will get a great one or two on Nov.25th anyway!!!!!!!!!.............. ![Evil or Very Mad :evil:](./images/smilies/icon_evil.gif)
