Two seconds for Barras as I've been saying all along, and I'm in. Keep the first.

Of course they will but it doesn't mean they get it right or he doesn't have complications down the road. The human body is not as simple as just doing a simple car service and ticking it off.

People thinking a Channel 7 interview is a smoking gun when we have a medical team that will do the necessary due diligence. Good lord. Just remember there were supporters who were equally aghast for the same reasons when we got Burgoyne.

No, people are worried when a player himself admits he struggles with his back daily, acknowledges it can potentially shorten his career and it is something he has to manage every day. It is simply a worry.
They gambled on Burgoyne it paid off, they gambled on O’meara it didn’t. Clubs don’t always get it right.

Yes but there is a slight possibility that if we get Barrass the universe may collapse in on itself so someone has to be the town cryer for obscure possibilities not amounting to a lot. I think he is true hero for …saying stuff and getting emotional about it
Thinking about who we've been linked to and how we can get them done:
Barrass:
Collingwood 2nd + future 1st + DGB > Barrass + future 2nd
Smith:
Hawthorn 1st + Hawthorn 3rd + WCE future 2nd > Smith
In terms of who we draft from there with only a pick in the third round +
C. Anderson- convinced he's a high end talent that has been hidden a la Newcombe
K. Burgoyne- doesn't seem like Port are convinced he'll make it. Don't mind us giving him a few years to develop at BHH and push
Finn 2.0- seems to have something, wonder what he'd be like in a professional environment.

O’Meara after 2017 played the vast majority of every season with us - so in terms of his knees, no the club didn’t get it wrong.

The people asking you to work hungover deserve the carding then.
Just a thought re Battle/Barrass. It was murmured that both have been told the other is coming, which is obviously a selling point as players like playing with other good players.
So if we don’t get Barrass we might not get Battle, whatever we trade for Barrass likely gets us both.
Surely our first and maybe a f2 for both is justifiable to anyone?

UFA finalised before trades. Battle either will or won’t prior to Barrass deal. Though Barrass will likely declare he wants to be a Hawk at seasons end.

At this point I hope we spend two firsts on Barass just to piss you lot off
Have we ever traded in a player from the eagles? Plenty have flown west .
There’s a 4 day crossover?
Is Sicily going to miss a portion of the start of next year after a full shoulder reco?
Is this why we would be after 2 KPD to cover?

Yeah, there is ....
Either way, The Barrass deal (or not) is unlikely to be known before Battle needs to make his decision.

JOM was never as explosive post-injury as he was pre-injury. In terms of trade pay-offs, Burgoyne was overwhelmingly a win for us while JOM was anything but.
Re Barrass, I'm fully on board with Sam's thinking but that doesn't negate the fact that his particular injury makes it a big risk, albeit much for him and his quality of life post-football than it is for us as a club. If he's willing to take the risk, who are we to argue?

Yeah that was a weird take

He did and also was managed his entire time at the club and it absolutely prevented him from being the player we paid for, we did.

You think his knee didn’t hamper his career with us? That’s a crazy take.

Not if we want to challenge in 2025 but definitely gets us more KID
