[Jars458]

Still reminiscing about the Dangerfield trade. Bless.

 

[hippyhippy]

Richmond demanding heaven and earth lol

If i were good coast.. just offer 1 late draft pick and walk away... They will fold eventually... They know they're getting a bargain already

 

[conVINCEd]

Smillie or Langford

Ugh, no thanks.

 

[FR0GGY]

Murphy finished 6th in ours last year.

Murphy is more than a role player, he’s a 100 gamer, in the leadership group and one of the first picked.

 

[crow2crow]

is this the 4th target?

he can **** off

 

[1990crow]

is this the 4th target?

Wouldn't be mad. But doubt it.

 

[crow2crow]

That’s my understanding too. We don’t need a Wright/Balme because we have Davis.

No its two different things

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

is this the 4th target?

Wants to go to the Cats... but Dees wouldn't allow it.

Don't think they have changed their minds.... but they are all over the place.

 

[Crouch#44]

Wants to go to the Cats... but Dees wouldn't allow it.

Don't think they have changed their minds.... but they are all over the place.

Is that because the cats won't pay much of his salary (or can't) ?

 

[WetCrow1991]

Gore was 'definitely going to pay firsts next season at Cats'. 'It was just like getting another late first thrown in'. Mutineer fell for it hook, line and sinker.

Knew he was a dud the second I found out he was a red head. More misses than hits with rangas unfortunately.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Is that because the cats won't pay much of his salary (or can't) ?

Don't think the Cats have any decent picks after trading in Smith.

 

[crow2crow]

Don't think the Cats have any decent picks after trading in Smith.

I dont know. I reckon its not worth the risk.

 

[El Doederino]

No its two different things

It might be but we don’t need both and won’t pay for both

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

I dont know. I reckon its not worth the risk.

We need to use pick 4 on best midfielder in the draft.

 

[Betts are off]

In other words. Does anyone but Geelong want Oliver?

 

[1970crow]

Murphy is more than a role player, he’s a 100 gamer, in the leadership group and one of the first picked.

Can't believe the overating of ANB, he's the dictionary definition of a role player. Had a great year, in an effective contract year, for a club that fell off a cliff and seems to be in serious cultural trouble. He was 9th and a long way off the leaders in coaches votes, showing that his b&f outcome was largely driven by the role playing component. He's definitely an improvement on our best 23, but he's not going to be a major difference maker abd won't be involved in our next preliminary final.

 

[crow2crow]

disagree we need someone to replace kelly

 

[adelaidecrows]

is this the 4th target?

Any list manager and recruiter trading a 1st rounder for Oliver and absorbing his pay should be sacked immediately.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Riley Beveridge, in response to a listener question, seemed to suggest we asked GWS if they'd be interested in any players as part of the Peatling deal. Giants said no, but could be a signal that we're shopping a couple of guys around.

Reid: We've got a few players who might be available as part of the de-

GWS: No thank you.

Reid: You haven't even heard who th-

GWS: No thank you.

You went very specific on the final

10000% this.

I dont know what it is that brought on the over rating, was it people just heard he is a best 22 player at Melbourne and just assumed. He is a role player at the top of his game and nothing more. But the way some have carried on youd think he won like 5 Brownlows or something.

Reid: Fooled ya, its Mur...

GWS: beep beep beep

Most posters weren’t excited about our offseason when it was just ANB
