Hello Shinboners!

Spoiler: Blue Tick Rumours

 

[Kanga1996]

Still waiting on a justification as to why it makes sense for the scum to offer marginally less then Band 1?

It makes zero sense for every party.

Makes no sense at all, we might as well match, we are only risking a 2nd Rd pick which has lost a lot of value due to our priory picks.

I’m not sure what is the bigger laugh, not getting the compo to band 1 or asking for a 1st rounder for Zerk Thatcher

Pure genius costing yourself draft picks for 20k pa. Mastermind in action.

 

[R00StaR]

Hipwood had an absolute stinker. Wasn’t because of a “lockdown” role. You are kidding yoursel. We played Carlton as a struggling side with NO TALLS and lost by 5 kicks. Take ya lockdown talls and stick em. The game is not designed the way it once was. FACT.

If you break down what happened in the GF it had nothing to do with defence. Take it to the bank.

You might not like what you read, its just facts. Bug dumb defenders are redundant

Its more team defense and flooding in numbers.

The only way it makes sense (at least from my POV) is that everything is pushing them v close to the cap
But how?

 

[RHLK]

From having infinity dicks to being surrounded by infinity dicks.

 

[justroyal]

Geez some of us bite at every headline.
Chill out.

It’s all for a reason though.
Straight after announcing our assistance it all started, then there was brief pause following the Brownlow and GF - the next thing for clubs to do was find away to dilute the McKay compo pick and complain about it. It might be a headline but it has been scripted perfectly and it’s coming from somewhere.

I think Essendon are playing on the pile on narrative to avoid blow back that they have over paid.

Ralph said “Essendon will only pay players what they are worth and the AFL would have to massage the deal to make it band 1”.

A perfect narrative for Essendon to put out there now.

They will end up paying the money but their supporters will live off the belief that they didn’t overpay, North just got more charity.

 

[The Nostradamus]

the above is stupid as there are no known thresholds for band 1 etc

Age, bnf position all play a part along with contract length amongst other secret herbs and spices

Around 750k a year over 5 years should be around band 1

 

[The Nostradamus]

It’s why even with the collusion saints and Essendon I don’t expect Gresham to get band 1

But I expect we will easily get band 1

 

[Shermanator]

Geez some of us bite at every headline.
Chill out.

I’ve just been scrolling through absolutely pissing myself at Ralphy’s clickbait catching some whales.

Wreck-Em sets up the sting by saying the *scum are balking at a trade to try and rob us of first round compo (about 10 grand by his expert calculations) and then by the time his microphone & earpiece have been removed from the set of On The Couch, his employer Fox Sports drops an article with BMac and Darth Vader Dodoro on the cover for the clicks.

Low and behold our supporters drop their dinner and want to burn bigfooty down…

It’s a beautiful thing!

 

[Ura]

Media loves click bait. It’s just short apparently prior to incentives which will get taken into account. Also his age is the youngest it could possibly be.
If it doesn’t match it hurts Essendon forcing them to pony up and opens door for other clubs and makes the bombers off-season significantly harder.
That being said I will riot and crack it at Essendon and McKay if it doesn’t.

 

[justroyal]

This. I'd much rather 2-3 elite players in multiple positions over 1 really Elite player. I just don't get it.

If you asked me a week before the final round, I would have said ‘no way, just get Reid. In fact, tanking would look so natural to you guys, playing for 4 quarters would be more of an indication that you were tanking all year…’

But here we are.

With the ability to get McKercher, Curtin and Sanders if you find a way to trade up the GC pick - you could even pencil 4 top tens 15 guys.

And I can’t believe I’m going to say it, but fukc it. The way that whole jhf panned out. I don’t know? Maybe we can’t handle the pressure that comes with a pick one?? Shit. I don’t know.

 

[The Y Factor]

If we match the Bummers bid can they increase their bid again or not.

Pretty sure it becomes a negotiation to lodge it the way the clubs want it

Nah Mummy’s boy is a once in a generation sook.

Reid will be a DeGoey/Dangerflog/Dusty type player in a flag team generational player..

It comes from two potential places...

Media wanting something to talk about.

* wanting to pretend that they didn't overpay and the AFL "herbs and spices" got North band 1.

 

[gustaaf]

One of the reasons I'm open to trade up for Reid is that it should ensure we don't get landed with Curtin. Win-win. Still don't want to sell the farm to get Reid though.

 

[DANMAN]

Dodoro after having to trade * first round pick for McKay after not offering enough for 1st round compo

That pick 38 worked out well Dodo

 

[krakouers]

Could we downgrade for the Cats pick with something additional?

Also, it’s Carl, GWS & GC17 with picks needed for next year? Whom else?
Edit:
Adel & Bris

Ashcroft Jnr @ Brisbane?..

 

[Flawed Genius]

Tyler Welsh at Adelaide

 

[Orange Peanut]

So where did you grow up i was from Moe and went to YT College.

I was a Motown boy too mate.

Wait. Are you the campaigner who pushed me off my BMX at the Res in 1985?

 

[FlyHigh18]

There’s a fair bit of noise at us trading up for pick 1.

I think it’ll involve GC and be something like 2&3 for 1&5 with whatever change.

Don’t @ me with points value please. It’s all about those elite top 5 players and who wants who.

Realistically we’re talking swapping Watson & Curtin for Reid and Sanders.

One doesn’t even want to go to WA and the other will probably end up there at some point.

 

[BlueandWhiteinmyBlood]

Drafting the Wiz with a pick in the top 5 is a bad idea.

 

[Deleted member 98541]

The AFL has announced the Allen Aylett Medal will be presented to the No.1 selection at the men's national draft, to honour the life of former North Melbourne champion and VFL President, Dr Allen Aylett

^If you were one to reid tea leaves...

 

[Masked Avenger]

Shermy, Reid could also be a Gary Ablett Senior or a Plugger Lockett.

Having the best player going around isn't worth a pinch unless you win Premierships.

We need multiple A graders.
