Heading to Tassie in April, Verdun, any “must do’s”?

I'll send you some info - yep Mowman is right Barnbougle is stunning and enjoyable. Go there twice a year.

What sort of places do you want info on food, outside stuff, places to see, let me know and I'll post or PM

Was gong to ask what you are into besides George but that would be to obvious.

just heading out for anniversary dinner to here:

Frogmore Creek

Frogmore Creek Wines Cellar Door and Restaurant is located 20 minutes from Hobart, nestled in the Coal River Valley wine region of Southern Tasmania. Our sister property Frogmore Creek Wine Bar is situated on the Hobart Waterfront overlooking the City and kunanyi.

Goes well.

Can give you info on wineries,distilleries, restaurants, places to go.

Will do so later

cheers

We were all over RCD in his draft year weren't we? From memory we tried to get another pick up the order to draft him.

 

[Verdun]

Head transplant.

Yeah I need a new one

and have a scar on my shoulder

 

[George]

George, George, and more George

 

[Saintos The ITK]

Me too.

 

[Verdun]

[Saintos The ITK]

need a new one?

I got rid of the wrong one.

 

[Tommy Wigs]

So we have 7 available lists spots according to BrutThough

That's with Bytel and Lienart in limbo

I'd give Bytel one year

Might be against the grain, but I wouldn't bother with Lienart again. He was quite good last year but it's time to start backing our youth in when we get a few injuries.

That leaves 6 spots with 4 decent draft picks atm

So maybe a couple of young DFA's

Agree. He was good and it’s time to use his spot to have a ping at the stumps

 

[Hayes4PM]

Hahahhaahhahahahaha

Dead set I joked we didn’t give a single recruiter or list manager the task of following up on that and everyone poopoo’d me.

“Do you really think no one at an entire AFL club would have reached out? Do you think so little of the St Kilda staff..???.??.?.?”

Yes I ****in do

 

[bergholt]

Yeah though he's obviously shown he's not yet and might never be AFL quality - 11 games in 4 years - so I suspect we might not be as keen right now.

If doing distilleries, Lark and Sullivans Cove would have to be on the list.......Sullivans have an outlet in the middle of Hobart CBD as well......

 

[gringo2011]

Everyone should buy into the full tank, it's pretty liberating tbh. Means you don't have to care too much about any individual results and you can just look for green shoots of improvement in any of the kids. Join me in chasing pick 1!

If we get Harley Reid with it I'm in. He looks the business.

 

[gringo2011]

Whiskey, MONA, mountains.

Hawthorn obviously think the same

 

[pebblesofsand]

And FWIW back at you.
I suspect our current troubles lie in a previous attempt to stay relevant.
Pressure from Gil and his “bad debt” statement….
That worked in the sense that our business model improved (and we can see that in all the business metrics you’d like to name) but it really made list management difficult. More difficult by the subsequent underperformance on the field.
gringo2011 is right in a way (he’ll be loving this) and the scenario that I have painted does offer an explanation for the changes in direction and strategy.

Alternatively, I am speaking bollocks and we’re all ruined.

2009/2010/Seaford are the root causes of the problems of the last 10 years.

Cost us heavily from both a footy and financial perspective. Left us with mountains of debt and a poor list.

The only positive is that the push for a Tassie team was not as strong at the time otherwise that's where we'd be right now.

 

[gringo2011]

Yeah though he's obviously shown he's not yet and might never be AFL quality - 11 games in 4 years - so I suspect we might not be as keen right now.

My Tigers mate was still talking like he was in their future plans before this trade period. Perhaps they've cut him to get him another home after taking Hopper and Taranto. Up until this year there was no shame in missing out on a spot in that side but they were rebuilding this year and he wasn't able to lock in a spot. Looks like their Bytel.

To be honest he's probably the only one I'd realistically look at giving a lifeline too. He's still young enough and promising enough to become a good player. He came in the Max King draft. Jez McLennan got delisted from GC too. Medium defender high pick from GC. Might be a good VFL project and see how he goes.

 

[sauce_head]

Don't worry if he was in possession of the facts. He's a television actor now mate.

It’s true really but not sure you get a player in just to get the associated pick. Not sure the effect on the list. But surely we have minimum play meant issues?

It was just stupid to think that young guys with disposable incomes and choices as to where they “work” would want to travel out there. Just. Stupid. That removed a lot of the destination club appeal right at our peak and our opportunity to be a forever good club.

That and out bad up and coming player management.

 

[sauce_head]

Does this mean the Suns are incompetent? I mean I'm prepared to believe it. But if Geelong were interested anyway, and he was willing to renegotiate his contract to go there, couldn't they have given away a lot less to get rid of him?

Nah it’s all just smack talk.

Are we planning on going winless? You’ll need that to out do the hawks

 

[gringo2011]

Pipe dream, if we asked Ratts to lose every game he'd probably win us a premiership.

 

[billings2paddy]

Our recruiters were all about Collier-Dawkins in his draft year. I wonder if they'll have a look

didn't they want to trade to get him?
Had him very high on the draft board?
