Rumour 2024 Rumours and Speculation Part 3

Stringer deal is off. GWS pulled their offer.

Looks like they are being super easy to deal with this offseason

Might be back on in 30 minutes...

 

[1970crow]

Kane says what lots of us know but most of the talking heads won't say.

 

[bettingonbetts]

So if Peatling does to go to the PSD how do we guarantee him?

 

[Crowbling]

I can see a Fox footy last minute exclusive where the Stringer deal is back on and the paperwork was lodged 0.05 seconds before the deadline.

 

[Cromulant]

Yeah old mate Kaneo has this one spot on.

Soldo comes out of this looking real ordinary

 

[Cromulant]

So if Peatling does to go to the PSD how do we guarantee him?

Cross our fingers

His manager doesn't give Tigers, WC, North a seat at the table

Peatling is already settled in Adelaide, would ruffle some feathers if some one else picked him up especially Peatling

The trouble with this view is that you would never be able to joke about anything bad because someone else might find it offensive. However, the simple fact is that nearly all humor is about something bad, which is because most of the world uses humor as a shield and a crutch to cope through bad times. I watched my brother on his deathbed still joking about his condition in his last hour of life, and I admire that strength to this day.

The simple fact is that joking about something in no way condones that thing, in fact in most cases it’s the opposite. The understanding of context seems to have become a lost art since the advent of texting and emojis, but I honestly believe that humor is one of the great aspects of humanity, and our ability to laugh when things are at their worst is a true strength of the human race.

If your wife daughter or son had been sexually assaulted, you would absolutely not have that opinion. There is NO context in which joking about someone who has r*ped and brutally assaulted people for over ten years is funny. Tell me, please, how any of these comments are funny?

One comment: Robbery? I feel like I just witnessed a Diddy party.

Another statement: At least Diddy supplied lube....

And yet another: Baby Oil is not really the best option.

I’m not asking you not to have jokes about things, but SOME things are a bridge too far.

 

[1970crow]

So if Peatling does to go to the PSD how do we guarantee him?

We can't, there's no contract structure or responsible price that would rule out the 3 teams ahead of us. He could refuse to meet, do medical, have his agent hang up on their List Manager though.

It's poor taste for sure, but fines and suspension.... no

Did Stengle get any sanctions for passing out?

 

[Danger in Texas]

When was the last time we had a deal with an incoming player go down to the last hour?

 

[jenny61_99]

Agreed.

 

[Cromulant]

When was the last time we had a deal with an incoming player go down to the last hour?

Hately

Hately, Gibbs (the first time)

Its all on the girlfriend as she 'could' refuse to move to Perth or Melbourne and Peatling tells those clubs he will be travelling midweek to spend time with her. Make it seem like real hard work to take him. I am sure there are enough ways it could be engineered from the players end without directly stating he won't go to x or y club

 

[GreyCrow]

Nominates a ridiculously high contract which is over the 1st 2 years then smoothed out

 

[Cromulant]

Did Stengle get any sanctions for passing out?

He did not.

He's allowed to say he'll sit out if they take him, nothing wrong with that at all. But he won't sit out, he'll suck it up, play his absolute best and do it all again next year.

We don't, it's a big risk we'll take.

 

[Vader]

So if Peatling does to go to the PSD how do we guarantee him?

Presumably the reason he chose us was because we made him the best offer, in terms of salary and length of contract.

If he specifies those conditions in his draft nomination form, then there's a reasonable chance that Norf, Weagles and Tigers won't gazump us in the PSD.

[FR0GGY]
