Imagine if he was listed until he was 35 haha

He can have Cummings ticket to the USA with boaky and ever crew

Port fans waking up tomorrow.

Pear still thought Rankine played for Gold Coast …. thought they were getting Rankine as part of the mega trade , rather than Ratkin!

Poor taste? I'm happy for others to raise awareness of the situation. This and Epstein implicate many famous people.

They can all burn in hell.

It’s not funny, nor joke worthy. For those of us who have survived abuse at the hands of an adult, it’s hideous that anyone can find humour in this.

It would have worked better if they were happier to miss out on the draft if it came to that

But they were desperate to get involved

It’s very interesting and kind of opposite to us this draft , we’ve basically traded out ( other than pick 4 )

Will be interesting to see how it pans out for both clubs , we won’t know for 3-5 years

I am convinced that our draft pick will be a better player than any of theirs. Only 13 is likely to be any good. People acting like pick 29 is going to be a multiple brownlow winner. More likely to play less than 50 games.

I'm not even sure what comment was said or who said it but people are going to make jokes about pdiddy. It is literally unavoidable in social media and everyday conversations right now. Comedians are using it as content. I've heard comments in the work place about it. It's as viral as it gets.

We all agree the man is a demon though.

I would like to trade Essendon for pick 28. They don't need it and the Port tears would be delicious.

Power are 10th fave for flag next year. That’s the key issue you are not factoring in

And they were 8th fav for the flag last year and still made top 4....
