Ultimate Glory 2023 Trade speculation and Shinbeggars discussion

[naysayer]

Have no defense, poor forward line and a slow small midfield. Yep an amazing list.

Their main problem is the pea-hearts they have playing for their paychecks. Just picked up 3 more of them.

 

[SSSSSS]

And yet not 1 “In the know” mentions anything

Makes you wonder………..

There is a secret cabal of scaly-skinned Hawthorn ITKs and they're turning the freaking frogs gay.

After all the shit that gets hanged on ITK here why would they want to speak up?

 

[MowShow]

In what world is:
1. Brockman not worth more than pick 44 when the Crows knocked backed a second rounder for McAdam?
2. Kosi not worth a high 20's/low 30's pick when the Cats won't even take 24 for the Rat?

Sleepy Mark, tell them THEY'RE dreaming

Both have shown significantly more than our two at AFL level..

Makes you wonder………..

Can you blame them? Have you seen the people arguing against some of the most trusted ones on here?

In the world that has a PSD where they can get him for nothing...

 

[RoughysMullet]

One of the most boring 1st weeks of the trade period ever… honestly can’t believe they spread this crap out over two weeks…

 

[Rev08]

We knew.

Haha, of course you did

 

[eldorado]

they're turning the freaking frogs gay.

My first introduction to the man.

I was bewildered.

 

[Ashman23]

I legit believed that the trade period ended today. I just looked it up and see it's Wednesday. What a gyp. See you all in five days, guys and dolls.

And, for the kicker, there's no 'live trading' during this weekend.

So, we might hear a whisper but no deals will actually get done.

What good is Pick 44 when 50 players might not even be drafted?

 

[eldorado]

I've got no idea why you're asking me that, or what it has to do with my response to his question.

Giants must be wrapped Haynes has decided to stay and fight for his spot!

Ha ha...

 

[Faraway Hawk]

Giants must be wrapped Haynes has decided to stay and fight for his spot!

Ha ha...

He should have a good understanding with the Physios and Doctors by now so why the need to fight for a spot on the bench?

362 points for matching or use in other trades?

 

[Mercy Seat]

I know you’re being sarcastic but Essendon have a very good list, the fact they can’t put it together on the field has nothing to do with Dodoro! I personally would welcome a bit of Dodoro attitude when it comes to trading!

Dodoro’s attitude to trading is all one big chip-on-the-shoulder ego trip based on the fact their team has been putrid for the best part of 20 years.

The best teams don’t go Dodoro because they’re not trying to overcompensate for a lack of success on the field. “Winning trade week” is the fastest road to mediocrity, as we’ve seen with the Dodoros and Bells of this comp.

Future 2nd!!!

 

[The hands of stone]

Yes Im sure we were really 'shocked' by it

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Yes Im sure we were really 'shocked' by it

Players don’t declare they’re going anywhere unless they’ve spoken to that club….yet the media are swallowing that no one knows a thing. Idiots.

 

[Dont_be_a_Plonka]

Like every year, they don't announce any trades until late on the final day.
It allows the feeding frenzy and gossip to happen.
Most trades are completed by day 2. It's all very staged

Farkin this.
All done for show

 

[Rowie6]

We may be alone but if we are protecting the kids, get gunners and TOB on one year deals. Solid citizens who know the score

I don’t think it would hurt getting Timmy O’Brien back as cover in the back half and hopefully get him to 100 game?
I think that would be a nice story!

If it was all done on one day, everyone - clubs, player, agents, media, fans - would still spend the weeks leading up to that day doing exactly what they are all doing right now.

Sleepy is waiting for Wednesday.

Because 44 is actually a mid first rounder after all of north's compensation and handouts.

 

[theiaofseed]

You asleep at the keyboard?

You said West Coast only have to offer pick 44 because they can just take him in the PSD, I said Pick 44 is an empty threat due to the potential number of draftees.

So I ask again what's difference between nothing and nothing?
