Thank you for your cooperation.

Well he’s certainly been marinating for a long time then.

Yesterday I witnessed a traffic accident. A truck carrying thesauruses rolled over.

I thought dinosaurs were extinct?

 

[The Talent Scout]

We are far, far too shit as a football club and an organisation to be turning up our noses at an elite trainer who has played 300 games and kicked 532 goals.

Darling 532

Larkey 237
Zurhaar 160
Curtis 55
Duursma 9
Total 461

Imagine how nice it would be for any other young 18 year old key forward drafted (Gerreyn, or Armstrong, or Sims, or whoever) to have a genuine veteran who has been there and done that to work with. Imagine how nice it would be to have (and this is why I was pretty excited about the Membrey rumours) a second forward dragging the second best defender away from Larkey's space. We have all posted pretty hard about the idea that we just dump it on Larkey's head and hope; imagine if theres another genuine threat (no disrespect to Teakle or Pink) to kick to that defenders have to worry about.

We have all complained that there appear to be no standards set by leaders. Let's go get some leaders to help Sheezel set those standards. Who cares if hes trying to top up his super, who cares if he kicks 13 goals for the season. If it means Larkey kicks 60 instead of 48 or Zurhaar kicks 40 instead of 24, I'm all for it.

A starving man isn't turning his nose up at basic bread and water. And brother we are starving

 

[kool kangas]

You're the one who is throwing out criticism because the club didn't acquire your list of "available" players. It's on you to know that the offers weren't enough.

You expect me to prove that your imaginary scenarios aren't true?

And criticising the club for not trading pick 1 to get Amiss, or not taking Cadman over Sheezel... It's just silliness.

We have Larkey and Comben as KPFs next season. That's pretty good. Larkey was AA last year. Some more depth would be nice but it's not something that needed to be addressed with top 3 draft picks.

This depends on who we get during the trade period...If we get Darling, then l believe Comben will play back, however if we get an experienced backman then he will play forward or alternate...

 

[bigosacr]

Thought he was tied to Essendon? Would love to have him.

I thought he was in the crows sights, but he'd be a welcome addition to north

Surely front half speed is what we are looking for. Not some statuesque aging forward. If we have Chom, Logue, Larkey as the spine then I’d be looking at Will Dawson having more game time and making him the fourth pillar. I thought he looked excellent when he played for an extremely young, skinny Key position. With the exception of the Dogs who have agile talks like JUH and Darcy, no one else is playing giants up forward. Even Carlton have moved Harry up the ground.

 

[shinboner magic]

Rosas and buderick/farrar for a f3 would be great

 

[R00StaR]

I wonder. Pick 2 and 40 to GC for 6, 13 and Rosas

6 and 13 will drop back 2 spots but pick 6 should net us something like Trainor, Langford, Hotton, Lalor, Armstrong and use 13 to get Gerreyn.

Pick 2 gets GC ahead of the Lombard pick and is something Richmond badly want making the Rioli trade easier.

 

[DuckYeah]

Jai Serong. If Hawthorn get their defenders, he will be looking for an out. Could be a handy defender

I would try to get Alex Davies too

 

[ansonholt]

Can we please stop with the pick 2 trading talk? It's not going to happen and it would be lunacy on our part if it did.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Would be a good pick up. Need a few small forwards.

 

[The Y Factor]

why would Darling leave one shit club, to go to another shit club?

he's probably better off staying there

He’s been told that he will play mostly in the WAFL next year so they can blood some young guys.

Only offered 1 year.

We can offer 2 years and more opportunity

 

[DuckYeah]

i hope Jack finishes his career in the WAFL. Would be another fail if we brought him over.

 

[The Y Factor]

I’ve come around re darling.

Pick 2 for him should be a good starting point

Pick 62 and it’s a deal

 

[DuckYeah]

I think the Darling shit is rubbish anyway.

Why are we meant to care about making the Rioli trade easier?

[The Y Factor]

I like to think myself a tolerant man, but the mere thought of Jake stringer in blue and white makes me sympathise with why someone would become a jihadist.

Same - yuk

 

[BlueandWhiteinmyBlood]

Honestly, if you are a small foward on the fringe, why wouldn’t you be coming to North? RHJ whilst improved pretty much gets a game due to being the only small forward on the list. If you are 5% better than him you are almost guaranteed a full season.

We dont, its about GC motivation to make the trade.

I'm super keen on the Eagles paying $800k for a guy to play in the WAFL, tbh.

Especially for guys they don’t want or can’t get games in their afl side.
Ben king on the other hand

 

[JGreezy]

I don’t care what anyone says the best leadership, is impact on the field. That’s why guys like Hodge & Lewis were such good buys, because they were still able to contribute and have a real impact. Blokes that are past it and can’t contribute on field are just taking up list spots.

If we want Darling for the off field stuff then recruit him in a development role.

Sure, we need to get Hodge/Lewis types, too. Darling is just one little side move.

We could maybe get him in a development role but we could also use some KPF depth, so may as well get two birds with one stone.

Errr… yeah… not cooking
