Off the top of my head. Strangle has worked. Albeit he was found unresponsive in a nightclub this season. Baker didn’t work. Not sure Oliver will get close supervision like he has recently.

I'd back there system in over ours every single time.

 

[Jessie G]

All the talk means nothing until we see the post ‘Oliver requests trade’. This is just playing out like Trac’s did.

 

[Daemon]

Why does it have to be bloody Geelong.

 

[Bluelegs]

Big if true.

Yeah they're getting smith Oliver and Martin. How do they keep managing to do this? Probably smart list management without long multi million dollar contracts.

Or backroom/under the table deals.

Martin wouldn't cost much

Sure. But I just think he’ll be given a bit more freedom. I’m sure they’ll have rules in place. But he doesn’t seem to follow them

Big if true.

Been asked to pick up some milk and eggs on his way home from work #ITK

Have the eggs officially requested to be traded to Morris?

The real question isn't who are Melbourne looking at but who from Melbourne is looking at them and furthermore who is influencing the main list decisions.

Unfortunately Clayton has to go this is a rinse and repeat situation.
Hopefully he can be packaged up with Lamb and Pert also.

I’m surprised a bit more hasn’t been made of these posts by our one proven ITK. Along with the very odd mention of a ‘list management committee’ (which I think Bluelegs) also picked up on, I reckon we can be fairly certain that Pert has somehow made himself the de facto head of list management.

What are chances of us finding 3 or 4 midfielders that know how to pass the ball by hand and foot?

I would settle for 1. You have to start somewhere.

 

[SackLunch]

In regards to the Oliver situation, I lay the vast majority of blame on the club and particularly Simon ****in Goodwin.

Oliver clearly has his issues and is ultimately responsible for them but I’m reminded of the Chris Rock joke about the tiger attacking Sigfreid:

“That tiger didn’t go crazy, that tiger went tiger”

That’s why Dumb **** Simon you don’t have beers and a few punts and more than likely a few lines with your players. You’ve condoned it, shared in it, you ****ing celebrated it. Let the tiger out of the cage, he ain’t going ****ing back in.

 

[MarcMaverick]

My concern with Clarry is that he'll be in his thirties and that he becomes unresponsive. A talented footy player that I wished got it together off field.

 

[mrmonkey]

Martin wouldn't cost much

Martin no, knowing Geelong they'll get the best out of him like they have with stengle. That's the thing with Geelong they either bring in players on the cheap and turn them good or they manage to continuously land good players. I guess their own success keeps them a destination club. I know times have changed but even in their heyday 07-11 they still managed to keep their list together with the exception of ablett who was offered a shit load to move. I don't recall many long term deals at the cats, they seem to be a well run club.
