Anyone know what the deal is with Jared Brennan?

[hotash25]

He was rumoured to be in favour of a move to carlton ahead of gold coast and essendon. Anyone have updates on this matter? Thanks

 

[dlanod]

Considering all the rumours that I have heard about his destination, I've never heard that one.

lol. Gold coast will net him more cash and a premiership. He must be dumb?

 

[Balony_pony16]

I get the feeling he is waiting to see what final offer the lions will put to him before trade week...much of this depends on the futures/contracts of Black, Power, & Drummond.

 

[recon]

Why would anyone want him.

 

[Lionfan]

Why would anyone want him.

very very good point.

 

[lions_den]

Losing Rischitelli and Brennan won't bother me as much as Drummond. As long as we keep Drummond I'll be happy.

 

[lionaround]

Out of the three, I'd prefer Brennan to go. Sure he has moments of brilliance but he can also do some very stupid things and his disposal can be a bit haywire at time

 

[Funkalicous]

Brennan to Gold Coast for pick 7. That's the scoop I believe.

Would take that in a heartbeat.

This.

Hope he goes to the Gold Coast or Essendon, don't want him at Carlton.

I love Jared but geez, I'd take that in a microsecond. He is a better player than most footy watchers realise, but he's not worth the salary he is asking for.

Pick 7 plus salary cap relief.

How strong is this rumour?

I'm guessing the rumour originated on the Carlton board?

But seriously, I can fully see why Carlton would be after him given their lack of offensive mids with poor defensive skills...

 

[Axel.]

I'm guessing you've watched one of his five good games this year?

 

[Benno_900]

In fairness, he started the season off really well before getting injured. Never really recovered although his last month was OK.

 

[Lionfan]

Are you kidding me? A player as skillful as him, all his kicks go to men his pickups are amazing he can play anywhere on the ground. I watch Brisbane play every week and trust me he's a big pickup whoever takes him

Not worth the money he is asking it is as simple as that. Especially to the Lions who have shafted themselves and are in Salary cap trouble.

 

[Koutafidamedis]

Would take him for nothing but wouldn't trade for him.

 

[doovies]

he's a dud and you know it so why make the thread?

 

[Hollow Knight]

Spot the guy who rarely watches footy.

How did you feel when that dud kicked 7 goals against your mob?

I hope these rumor is true. I have suggested this would happen purely as the GC will need to outbid a keen Bombers who have pick 8. Also, the GC losing a 1st round draft pick won't hurt them as much as they have a heap of others.

If you seriously think Essendon will offer their pick 8 for Brennan, you have rather large rocks in your head!

 

[Faz 2000]

I'll be honest and say that I do not understand Jared Brennan. He's clearly freakishly talented, and his best games are extraordinary. His worst seem to be utterly putrid, and I am a bit suprised to read that Brisbane fans are ready to ditch him for a decent return.

What IS he? Where do you play him? Where SHOULD he be played?

I have no idea whether Carlton needs what he brings to the table, because I don't know what that is.

PS - can you please send Daniel Merrett down at your earliest convenience. Thanks, regards, Faz.

The soft inconsistent form seems like a natural fit for the Bulldogs.
