They do if Fantasia leaves. They played Ham in that elimination final. Not saying he won’t be a good player, but I know who I’d prefer and who’d be a bigger impact

Smith comes back in next year. They have a heap of 170-180cm small forward or mid/forwards.

Mitchell Brown would be their "key power forward". They need talls.

I'm just hoping Dodo will do Dodo things and trade in Jenkins lol.

Trade period is a disgrace when you can finish if in 3 days why bother having it for 2 weeks?

Do you remember the three week trade period a while back?

 

[HBF]

Surely had to be a WC player in an attempt to get them a top 10 pick to satisfy Geelong but with the cats accepting those 3 picks it is no longer required.

Based on whats been posted here, reckon it was Treloar.

Tim Kelly officially an Eagle.

A simplistic viewpoint is this...

The more exposure the AFL gets, the more Gil can line his pockets.

3 days as opposed to 10 is less to time to promote sponsors and less social media “hits”.

He would be hard to live with, as captain and god gets first choice to dine during all meals and consumes all protein accordingly (why is Fish skinny..). To gain entry to the house must perform "the feats of strength" against Cripps (Fish hasn't been inside for a long time). And how demoralising it must be to see trophy and awards on the mantle all being Cripps' and having none of your own.

Didnt he win the greatest ever trophy?

What's that thing? Looks like something put in the Gaylord Focker hall of fame.

I'm not singling this out. I call out every so-called 'rumour' that is started by a bullshit facebook page, and I think they should all be banned from the thread. They add nothing positive.

Ok, I get you. Still seems like an unnecessary crusade as they're rumours being posted in a rumour discussion thread that is derailed by stuff like an over 40 yr old posting a gif. At least the facebook rumour discussions are on topic, however inaccurate or made up they may be.

Trade week = marathon, not Sprint
Some peeps need to let chill into their lives

As David King said the other night, if you give someone two weeks to do an assignment they will. I'm confident the deal will get done.

Kelly, 57 & a future 3rd

14, 24, 33 & future 1st.

Cats now have 14, 17, 24, 33, 36 and next year have swapped their 3rd for WCE's 1st. Not a bad hand...

 

[mochacinolatte]

Midfield of Gaff/Yeo/Shuey/Kelly. Who the **** do you tag.

West Coast haven’t overpaid at all imo. Haven’t given up any “high” first rounders & the next two drafts are reportedly pretty poor.

 

[jimsta10]

West Coke don't F around...other clubs should take note.

 

[Bearded Carpenter]

As I have said previously, could you appreciate that some information is sensitive?

Have other ITK posters such as TheRedPill who generally has an impeccable record also mention an unnamed player?

I understand why many ITK posters are gun shy and I know in future, I will share any information I get in private

You seem reasonable enough to understand the angst it causes the other way.

Kinda catch22 or a big fish mystery.

Send 9 and something else to geelong for 14 and 17. Get paps and martin done

 

[HBF]

Matt Rowell is a carlton fan (interview with Gary and Tim) and Eddie Betts is his favourite player. Surely we go after him now in 2 years time from the GC. score.

Just like the Saints are going after Ben King

 

[jj1978]

Midfield of Gaff/Yeo/Shuey/Kelly. Who the fu** do you tag.

Basically it's a rollback to Judd/Cousins/Kerr and co. days... again with one dominant ruck Cox/NicNat... huge comparisons to those mid 2000s now.

I think the reason it makes sense for WC is they are in the window plus the weaker drafts. It makes sense for Geelong as they can easily chase Steven and their targets now. I still think it works in Cats favour on paper but i want to see what they do with the picks now

 

[RPCB]

"Mate, I'm the captain of this ******* football club, as if I'm gonna clean the shower."

Nah, I reckon Cripps would be like the house cleaner on Seinfeld.

The difference is a rumour may or may not be true, but when you can see the source of the rumour, and therefore know that it is complete bullshit, it should not be on here.

 

[VainGlorious]

Midfield of Gaff/Yeo/Shuey/Kelly. Who the fu** do you tag.

You don’t tag, you just pray that Crippa gets plenty of it

 

[Red_man2008]

Midfield of Gaff/Yeo/Shuey/Kelly. Who the fu** do you tag.

None you go head to head and make sure everyone is accountable. No different to Dangerfield Ablett Selwood Kelly and Duncan.

They needed to use yeo to tag Cripps last year. Shuey is 30+. Gaff plays off he wing.

 

[gab213]

It's not worth discussing when it's from sources like FB pages that are known to be full of shit...like the one saying Murphy might be traded to Brisbane.

It caused some angst on here and a bunch of people criticising the club and even Murphy unnecessarily, people started discussing trade hypotheticals including Murphy...just a waste of time.

Maybe the problem is not so much that people post these things in a rumour thread but more the way that people choose to react.
