It's actually a perfect example.

It is completely clear through that comment that there is zero understanding of how things work yet trading suggestions and scenarios have been put forward by this person.

Having no idea how things work invalidates the opinion put forward on anything.

You need to go clean up the crap posts in today's thread of what Goldy allegedly did or didn't do according to the world of social media trolls.

That is the 'Todd Goldstein' thread. :rolleyes:
I already did.
 
There is this facebook page called 'the zanotti files', the page has been pretty consistent with getting the rumours right. The page said late Friday night that Paul Ahern would be joining North Melbourne with paperwork to be lodged on Monday. Has anyone heard anything different or close to?

That seems to be the popular theory. Tom Browne said so but now someone has called him out as a bs artist so who knows. I heard they're trying to find a second player for us to satisfy the deal,may not be Pickett as he seems destined for Carlton.

You should , it's rubbish . There's only ever been one king ... he wore number 18 in the blue & white stripes . Don't bring your false pretenences to these parts champ .
Why are North fans on this board so aggressive to anyone that comes in from another team? So silly.
 
Wow you guys are really offended by my username, aren't you?
FWIW Popeye is a bit of a troll no one listens to around here.



Back to trading.

No to Minson for me. What's the point of getting a decent ruck in "for a year" when we're looking to develop kids.

Throw Preuss in the deepend with Maj and Brown giving him a chop out. He will learn fast.

Mostly the aggressive ones don't post much here in the main season, they flock to the board end of season though.

A snapshot of where our list currently sits shows how young and inexperienced we will be next season
 
You front load most contracts or bring in star players

Goldie and wells were on 1.4 million between them our two highest paid players. Dal 300 plus, Petrie 350 plus , Black 400 .We wouldn't front load or pay Greenwood anywhere near what he wanted due to putting him above the likes of MacMillan and Atley.

We put a very high price on team harmony. So my question still remains, who we front loading the **** out of? Bringing in a star would help that, but as we all know it's easier said than done.

It's actually a perfect example.

I know how a shit load of things work and I have a solid understanding of what I club does, or doesn't do!

I didn't think think OF was talking about you.

Anyway, visiting the D&T board reminded me of what I think we need next year - a thread for rumours and news and a separate thread for hypotheticals. Like dream team, you either enjoy discussing hypotheticals or you don't.
 
If Goldy is to be moved on, which is sitting more comfortably with me by the day, pick 12 is a tick and at least Lycett has a bit of campaigner in him. I would prefer to chase Nankervis though and those suggesting Minson, no way. This would also free up truckloads to throw at Dusty next year who will have losers fatigue after the Tigers finish bottom four.
