Game Day 2024 Trade Period - Lian Yu - that liminal space between trade and draft.

[MakeshiftMartyr]

Don’t get me wrong, they are hilariously hideous speeches. I wouldn’t accept that at the local U16s.

Just think the moment froze Shai and Baler was clearly drunk.

Shai is in an awkward spot.

He may want to thank the club for all it's done for him and wish them all the best, but he's no guarantee of leaving and it may step on the club managements toes a little bit and aggravate the issue. He's better off saying as little as possible.

 

[bigfoopy]

That brother is so checked out holy shit

 

[dropbear101]

I feel bad for Kane Cornes wife. She probably gets really jealous when she catches Kane moaning Big Darcy's name in his sleep.

we should start this as a rumour

 

[freo84]

Yeah they were the worst speeches I've seen...

 

[Docker82]

From what I’ve seen I think Corey and Sheldrick have both shown they can get there, just need opportunities so maybe both are gettable for right club if they don’t play a lot more next year

Sheldrick has been injured and goes alright.

From what I’ve seen Corey Warner makes Sheldrick of last year look like prime Gary Ablett junior.

If Corey Warner wasn’t Chad’s brother and wasn’t on the list of a Grand Final side he’d just be some average youngish depth player destined for a 4-6 year career at AFL playing around 25-30 odd games despite no one knowing what role they’re supposed to be playing. Not the worst player to ever play the game but the sort even the biggest nuffies barely remember two years after their last game.

Shai literally biting his lip when thinking what to say because he has a contract

Probably wanted to thank the club but was in a tough position


dno why they made em do speeches for equal 5th

 

[Johnny Dalmas]

Who’s he kicking out of there midfield?

Well when Chad comes to us, there is an open spot

Seems in a roundabout way he was trying to tell them, "I'm doing it for family reasons. "

 

[mightymouse75]

Unprofessional w***ers.
Let's get picket

 

[Daddoo]

Was hoping we might bring in someone who can take Jackson’s interview spots, won’t be Shai.

As Dogga’s buddy, I demand you take that back. The guy is a brilliant orator. Those close to him (like me) call him “Shakes” as in William Shakespeare.

Yep, thought Bolton was spot on highlighting his partner wasn’t there because she’s “back home” while pregnant with their second child, his manager would be proud, and to all the Richmond fans saying “I’d rather keep him than trade him for unders” there is no way you can tell me it’s in the clubs best interest to hold someone so checked out of your club to their contract.

The guy is our heart and soul. Are we comfortable selling our soul for a flag?

Ummmm yes? Premiership >>>>> literally everything else.

Also trading Brayshaw isn't "selling our soul", especially if it wins us a premiership

Moving to Cockburn was more selling our soul than that would be.

 

[DragoDelph]

Bolton and bakes getting on the beers with the boys one last time.

Then asked to give speeches a carton deep? Did well really

 

[Farrand]

They're both completely hammered. I've seen worse, I've seen better but regardless I won't hold it against them. Anybody below first shouldn't be giving speeches and probably wouldn't expect to either.

 

[kuhni]

Dockers trade Brayshaw this trade period and win a flag in 2025. Who says no?


I love Brayshaw but I take that deal

We already have enough capital to get pickett and bolton. So the question is brayshaw or warner? I rate Brayshaw above Warner, as he has that gut running defensive contribution to our mid rotations. Especially if we already get the offensive bump up from pickett and bolton.

 

[DragoDelph]

Oh Sammy…

He was told no.

 

[Ge3ks]

What the. Why would Kelly leave West Coast. It's what he wanted. Is he being pushed?

 

[rgauci]

Oh Sammy…

He was told no.

 

[BStaff17]

Didn’t progress past a casual chat! Haha

I hope we told him to get ****ed.

Like he did to us in 2019.

 

[ubiquitous226]

What the. Why would Kelly leave West Coast. It's what he wanted. Is he being pushed?

The Eagles haven't committed to extending him past 2025 when his contract runs out, so when AFL mortality kicks in it probably changes attitudes.

The players aren't the heart and soul of the club, we are. The supporters. The members. We'll always be around. Players come and go.

Ahem...

One word... Pav.

 

[Polo342]

Id take Kelly if he was cheap! We obviously want another mid if we are after Warner. We may not be able to fit it Warner, Bolton and Pickett.

But can we fit in Bolton, Pickett and Kelly into the salary cap?
