Open question - if Wood went to Sydney is a 1st Rd pick swap fair for both parties (currently #4 and #7), and worthwhile for North to look at?

My rating of Wood is roughly as a mid-to-late 2nd Rounder (#30?) given he is under contract. Not sure how this lines up with the above all things considered.

Pick 43?

i think any upgrade of our first pick trade would need to get us into the top 3 to be worth it. (this year)

The Trade Period is always a bigger letdown than The Phantom Menace.

29 next year ?

Good pick up, sure. Good season, 100%.

But still consider you are falling for the Jasper Pittard effect.

No mate. Someone mentioned he was a spud, you agreed. I disagreed with both. Age is irrelevant to original point. Bloke wasn't a spud. Still isn't. Go back and check his thread before he played a game for the club and see what I thought then. Hint - same thing I think now.

Wood would be a great acquisition for Melbourne.

I still agree.

The Jasper Pittard effect.

Port fans said he was a spud therefore he was. They could lose Robbie Gray and they'd tell us how shit he is.

Port fans are on the lower end of the intelligence spectrum.

Israelis get a bad wrap, theyre generally a bit guarded at first but always up for a good time.
If you ever what an experience, find some Israelis and head to an infected mushroom gig.

Banging trance that they made inside their heads while in the army, lol.

Not anymore. All the new pop-psy trance acts that have spread into the mainstream market are terrible.
Chasing nothing but the dollar in true Israeli fashion. Jumping up and down on the spot isn’t music.

It’s not what it once and credibility is zero.

You should stick to convoluted 12 man trades, it's a nice niche you have carved out for yourself

Did you see him play this year? Guessing no.

He was disinterested at best. Not a team player and had to be barked at by other players, then only reluctantly, and often belatedly put his head down and tried to where he should be on the field.
Destined to have fun with bags in a lower league. Looks over afl

I feel like following this trade week shit too much could cause serious brain damage. it's like the epstein case. there's nothing any of us can do to influence outcomes (except SLF) we're all just shouting into the void and will inevitably be disappointed when the players we built ourselves up to wanting don't come to North. I look forward to barracking for whoever the new faces are next year, and I have faith in the club to be intelligent about recruitment, but I can't imagine following the minutiae like this. Please speculate responsibly, comrades

Turner

Turner must be replaced. Not going into his skill deficiencies again. Strange the club player reviews touting that although he doesn't kick enough goals, BUT he sets the standard for the pressure in the forward line.

What weasel words! What does this have to do with kicking a football to your team's advantage?

Can anyone tell me he is a good footballer (at AFL level)?

I was there for that final against Richmond. That was how many years ago? He has the right temperament but less than a VFL skill level.

Lucky Scott was scared of Jack's old man!

Pick 43?

I didn't go to the points value for a reason. Yes - I think the points system gives a guide of sorts. But the reality is different - if the top 4 in this draft are outstanding, and the next 10 are fairly even, then the upgrade may be worthwhile. If the difference between 4 and 7 is marginal, then yes, Wood may be worth more (maybe upgrade both our 1st AND 2nd rounder). Hence my question is directed at those who track the draft...like this:

[Yoko and me]

Why would we get rid of higgins?

Because he doesn't make players around him better would be my guess. Could be wrong in tapping into the new coaches thoughts?

 

[Dan]

What if that trade doesn't go through?

 

[Supreme_Chancellor]

Should trade for Tom Hawkins. He is the All Australian Full Forward after all.

 

[Waussie]

All the footage I have seen on TV today of the Crows players lobbing up for their exit interviews or whatnot, fmd, as a collective, hands down, the worst dressed bunch of bogans in the league by the length of the Flemington straight.

Ah! ,but did they wear socks?

SAUCE !!!

No wonder St Kilda want to piss him off.

You can blame Israelis for a lot of things but not the disease that is emd, that shit spreads....
It’s the marketing of unoriginal cookie cutter music, to new audiences by entertainers, not musicians who haven’t learnt their craft.

Betts kicked a third of his goals this year against Gold Coast.

Jeremy Cameron kicked a quarter of his vs Gold Coast and got a Coleman and AA out of it. Sign him up.

 

[RobZombie]

So all of a sudden all the names we were linked to. Jones, Martin, Papley.
We weren't mentioned once.
Interesting...

A past source of leaks no longer at the club? Or no longer in possession of as much privileged info?
