Nik Martin still stings - taken right from our pocket.

Stings yes, but taken from our pocket?

It's like if we have coins in our pocket, go to the movies and don't properly value them, drop them on the seat (and can't see in the dark... although it could be argued that sometimes our recruiters can't see in the light) and someone else picks them up and spends the money.

Of course to top it off, these mythical $1 coins have actually turned out to be those rare misprint ones that are worth a lot more.


Not sure if it is a good analogy, but basically we had our chance - and missed it (for reasons unknown to us plebs).

 

[eagles rule]

From memory, Martin trained with us for 2 years running, in the supplementary pick window. It’s an indictment on those that made the decision to reject him. But it seems to me more likely that call was made by coaching staff rather than ROB.

The same coaching staff thought it was a good insurance to pick Tom Joyce just in case ..

Yeah that might be who I’m thinking of, might have conflated him with MastaBlingbling who followed Cousins to Richmond.

Looked it up as it was going to bug me, Stereophonic is who you are thinking of.
Bzparkes was right, lived locally in Queensland and adopted the Gold Coast when they first started up

 

[archiemoses]

Who was the poster who jumped onto Richmond after they signed Cousins?

Stop trolling Todd mate!!

 

[Obeanie1]

How many talls do we need ?

Maybe Allen's foot has been amputated in a bid the get him ready for preseason

Also on Derksen if you take out his wafl game vs the Beagles his form is nothing special

Planning for life after JK and one of Waterman or Darling to be traded?

B Williams, J Williams and Bazzo are still unknowns.

Oh, that’s different from Yellow Feathers. Looks like he cracked the shits when we traded down from pick 6 because we’d miss out on Sheed and anyone else decent.

I hope people never ever say EVER that we never take any risks in trade week ever again.....this is too much.....im tired Most of it has been an overreaction to what has been a pretty good trade period for us considering we will get either Acres or Sheed at the end of all this.

Then he walked back his threat to give up on WCE. Then he changed anyway.

Worked out well.

(For us)

Edit. Here’s his introduction to the GCS board

Those tall guys might be unknowns but our young midfielders are non-existent.

 

[Bender_]

Those turncoats have nothing on good old 88mph who jumped ship from the Eagles to Dockers at the start of 2018. Astute decision making.

 

[FDH16]

Brander?

What REALLY happened with Brander, anyone willing to share....

I agree we shouldn't trade Waterman or Darling.

however when it comes to unknowns im pretty certain i know Bailey Williams is shit.

 

[Obeanie1]

Yep, we 100% won't take Culley! So I need to adjust my expectation on that. I actually think the Bombers will get him, Norf seem to be into D'Ambrosio (who I also really really rate, but not a need for WCE). Could the Bombers get two we let slip? Culley and Martin, that will cause some massive offended on here.

If we take Florenca with our first that's just ridiculous.

I agree on Culley size meaning it's helped him be dominant too date against smaller bodies, but that's one of the bits I like about him. I think his body is AFL ready and in the AFL system he'll only get stronger, quicker and could be anything. 193cm big body that can play as a mid with some great attributes is worth the punt IMO, but we won't take him.

Nothing against Derksen, but I just don't feel we need any more talls. Unless they plan to get ride of a heap at seasons end, but surely it's premature to make calls on players this early.

No need for a D'Ambrosio at the Eagles?

Have you seen how we are butchering the ball coming out of defense? The kid has pace and laser like kicking skills. Replace 3 clanger turnover goals from Witherden with someone who can kick and not panic.

That would be a 3 goal upgrade from our current defense.

There isnt much we dont need ATM.

What REALLY happened with Brander, anyone willing to share....

High draft pick as a key tall - turned out to be a long marshmello with no footy brain. later doneated to a sydney charity where he was dropped bor being a long marshmello when trief as a third tall forward, When the team was decimated by injury he filled a spot on the wing - why he left WC - and was schooled on footy thinking by an ex WAFL player.

Steve Hucka was just a bloke pretending to be a draftee.

Agree?

I would be more than happy to move Darling on. He is one who has splintered the playing group.

Rioli the same. Love Willie and what he can do on field but his multiple drug f-ups really hurt the squad.

The actions of these two players has gone a long way to errode the culture at the Eagles. There would be others.

 

[Schtinker]

Do we go for Derksen with our 1st, with the knowledge that at the moment the Dockers recruiting team is better than ours, and hope Florenca is available to our 2nd? Or are we hoping the Dockers are bluffing and really want Florenca for themselves?

 

[Obeanie1]

If he does have inside info on whether we’re interested in Culley, it’s entirely possible he doesn’t think he should give it away.

We have pick 1 dont we?

More than just football issues I believe.

As it stands but we could switch with North this weekend.

Then we have the same mail.

Oh what, no way, that's crazy, please tell us etc etc etc etc
