If gws /stringer trade goes through does that mean even Twomey is tarnished??

 

[andleanback]

Tend to agree. We’ll accept a junk pick, he’ll be in the AA40 next year. Is what it is. All in the name of the AFL’s sports entertainment ethos

Who cares about the pick, just get him out. Dont care what he does next year

They’re all tarnished for final day trade. All these trades are flaked up as oh know they might not go through, next minute oh shock horror they all get done just before the bell

 

[Rick Ross]

What does it matter if he’s in his best position if that makes the side worse.

Need to play both ways not just swan around as a loose man and slot goals while your teammates play 17vs 18 more often then not

Not agreeing with that. He’s too hungry for a goal to not chase… and he does.

Stringer is neither swanning around nor should he be ultra high defensive pressure in his role.

 

[yodellinhank]

Peter Wright happy about not having to provide those missing 42 goals

When you think of the 42 goals we would've lost, it's like an 84 goals swing in our favour

 

[thaibomber]

pick 53 now...

 

[Inspecta Gadget]

Let's keep him and make him play his last season of footy in the VFL.

Yes I'm a campaigner.

 

[Keystone agony]

He will go

Rosa will be bent once again for a 50s pick

 

[rusman]

He will go

Rosa will be bent once again for a 50s pick

Once again?

 

[Lore]

As long as it's either a 50s pick or paying his contract, and not both

 

[JayJ20]

Stringer done for 53

 

[thepokey]

What a shame. The guy could have been a generational player and in the end just became an untenable situation to keep - Essendon, also Bulldogs.

 

[carnthedons]

Quelle surprise

 

[eth-dog]

Cheers Package.

[Schnitzengruben]

Thanks for your service Pack. Goodluck.

 

[Inspecta Gadget]

Holy shit. We did the right thing for a change

You put your shit back in, you put your shit back out, you put your shit back in etc etc

 

[Nicholas61]

Thanks for the memories Jake and good luck. Loved when you torched the Eagles in Perth several years ago with Devon.

 

[carnthedons]

You put your shit back in, you put your shit back out, you put your shit back in etc etc

Do you know how hard it is to resist homophobia?

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Jesus that's a garbage deal

 

[andleanback]

They’re all tarnished for final day trade. All these trades are flaked up as oh know they might not go through, next minute oh shock horror they all get done just before the bell

Barrass done
Smith done
Stringer done
Macrae done
Daniel done
Parker done
All in the last 5 minutes
It’d laughable. If anyone buys the media storylines that the deals are dead in the water they need a reality check

 

[Vindicater]

He will go

Rosa will be bent once again for a 50s pick

A 50's pick for Stringer is about right.

 

[Foxx]

53 huh! He'll get close to that number of goals next year for GWS.

 

[Bjchan13]

Actually surprised he went through with it in the end. The pick doesnt matter. Once he said he was willing to move to Sydney it was the right thing to do to make it easy for him. Forward line needed a reset and Kako takes his place. Shouldn't be any hard feelings from either side.
