[Wargreymon90]

I can’t fathom what they would ask for in a trade for their best player

Written statement that Gavin Wanganeen is an Essendon ex-player first and foremost?

 

[TheFVK]

The circumstances around Brad Crouch's drug use are more what I'd be concerned in.

If this has anything to do with him missing so many games through poor preparation and commitment to recovery then I'd be asking questions.
Similarly, his judgement in going out with Stengle, who has known drug and alcohol issues as evidenced by his DUI, also sets a poor example.

It's not a great look for a guy who by virtue of his age would be a leader of the club. Certainly needs to be another level of due diligence before we consider forking out 2.4 million over 4 years on him.

Tom Morris on 'On the Couch' threw up Ports name (in addition to Carlton) as a club 'hovering' to see what is happening with 'Zach Merrett'.

In the Draft Mega Thread I said my #1 target is a 196cm KPD and #2 is a left foot midfield who plays in the middle not the wing, and that was more for experienced trades but if we couldn't trade in these type of players, then we had to draft them in.

Zach Merrett is the type of midfield left footer I'm interested in.

 

[Jonts]

Would prefer Merrett over Viney (Vineywould still be a good get though) is he a RFA?

Isn ‘t he contracted for next year.? We would have no currency to gte him outbof Dodo this year surely.

Yes he is. They described the attention in part as a pre-agent thing, but also that there was a sniff at Essendon atm.

Viney >>>>>>>> Merrett

 

[Coobk001]

I come in peace..

North are after a young ruckman for when Goldy hangs up the boots in the next couple years. I recall Hayes was highly rated u18, but appears Ladhams has gone past him (based on what I watch of Port). Do you think he is apart of the long-term plans/do you rate him?

Cheers

If Hayes can build a tank he could be a star. Is a fantastic prospect. Doubt we will let him go. Could surpass Lycett soon enough.

 

[VineValerian]

Laws for some and laws for others.

Ummh.
Assistant police commissioner on Crows board?
Preferential treatment...... on second thoughts - nah. Wouldn't happen in SA

 

[VineValerian]

Viney >>>>>>>> Merrett

 

[Doctor Feel]

lol you guys seem to forget how much of a ****ing peaheart merrett is.

 

[Dalfino]

Yeah Merrett is the kind of midfielder we are looking for but can we get literally anyone else but Merrett? Has always appeared to me like a stats-padding front runner and I think he's considerably overrated. Wouldn't burn the place down if we got him and I'd welcome any player to Port with open arms, but noting that we'd have to deal with Essendon to get him as he's contracted until the end of next year I don't think he'd be worth the hassle.

I like Viney but he's probably too similar to Wines and doesn't offer a different dimension to our midfield group.

Crouch hits a bit of a sweet spot between the two but between his injury history and now drug-bust (which I personally don't give a rat's arse about, but it would undoubtedly dampen the club's interest a bit due to culture and publicity concerns), he'd be a risk as well.

No players really sticking out for me so far in terms of trade targets unfortunately.

[RangaInTeal]

Personally would prefer 1 x 4 Metre Peter but beggars can't be choosers I suppose.

I just want a 12 Inch Johnson...

 

[dirty2]

I just want a 12 Inch Johnson...

Its not as good as you would think...

 

[Rendaw]

No trading with Essendon. I dont care what player is on offer

 

[TheFVK]

We already had a 73 inch one and it was no good

 

[TheFVK]

Agree. Let them simmer in their stew of mediocrity with the home brand ingredients that Dodoro and co add to the mix every year.

 

[It Just Is]

How’s this for a lol Essendon moment. Apparently the reason Saad is pissed off is because they initially offered him a 5 year deal.

It was a big brain gambit to offer 5 years on shit money to try and end up at a 4 year deal on more reasonable money. Essendon then fell apart as soon as the contract freeze ended and now Saad is thinking he might as well go get both 5yrs and good money at a club actually going somewhere.

 

[VineValerian]

Reminder

Good point. Well made!!!

 

[LeoMessi]

So this puts no one off Crouch? leadership group? Hey google, play Snowblind

Yes...pass

 

[JimmyBC]

It would be the same ratio as in the general public. So work out how many of the average 18-30 year old blokes are into it on the weekend and you have your answer.

I don't know why you are supporting the 'Everyone is doing it' crew then it hovers around 33%.

 

[gbear]

Crouch should still be of interest to Port, but clauses should be put in to the contract offered to him that provide secruity to Port if he is caught again.

 

[Nater]

There's no way we should trade with Essendon this year but I mentioned earlier we should be holding off until next year and aiming at merrett or Josh Kelly as free agents. Much better fits for our midfield
