The Maher and Murphy show is abysmal. Murphy has zero radio personality and half the time mumbles in some droll tone that is inaudible. Maher needs to find a new sparring partner.

If the Betts deal is done....why isn't it done?
What happens that holds things over, if the agreement is in place? Why not just lodge the deal with the AFL?

This happens quite often and I understand when some back-ended picks need to be shuffled but when it's a player for a pick - Why the hold-up?

This Martin kid might seem physically light on, but his Highlights package suggests he’s not averse to the physical stuff.

My daufhter says I am terrible at face comparisons. Turns out she is right.

TBF not that many variations in a horses face.

They all look the same to me.

Oh good grief no . Not the jockey. I love Bob don't get me wrong, but he is an introvert and I think the show would benefit from a 3rd host. I reckon Daisy Pearce would work well or maybe the hockey champ girl that Andy used to have on. The one with the same name as a soap actress.They had great chemistry.

Georgie Parker?

Afl.com.au seeming to suggest the PSD is still a thing.

Trade Winds: Betts' Blues deal imminent, Giant move on the cards?

AFL.com.au's Trade Winds will provide a round-up of the latest developments each morning until the end of Trade Period on Wednesday, October 16

www.afl.com.au

AFL reportedly to tell clubs by Friday if the pre-season trade period will happen next year. YOU ******* KIDDING ME?!?!

We have started trade period. How the hell are teams supposed to make list management decisions while the AFL is figuring out list management rules/mechanisms?

Every time I think the AFL couldn't get any more amateur......they prove me wrong.

EDIT: I originally wrote PSD, meant Pre-season Trade Period. Thanks Blue__Balls

Dude - relax.

For all we know the paperwork is being signed off this morning, or the clubs had other meetings scheduled and have agreed to get together at X o'clock today.

This next comment isn't levelled at you, Harks, more a general observation. There seems to be so much frustration and pent-up rage from some people about deals being done as soon as humanly possible. I don't get it. There's 18 clubs negotiating deals, contacting players, shuffling picks, it's gonna take some time. Just because a deal is agreed to in-principal, doesn't mean the clubs will do it immediately. These little deals, like we saw with Essendon's pick swap, can sometimes be woven into another trade to benefit one party or another. Maybe we're reaching out to other clubs to see if we can work the Betts trade into another deal so that either us or Adelaide get a slightly better return.

And strike a pose!

I'm feeling good about impending trade news.

Don’t diss Tito, Jackie and Jermaine man ... you can diss Marlon though.

Wahhhh? j'adore Simmo missy. Just would not recognise him if he walked into my stall (apparently)

Agree.

2 guys trying to be funny and entertaining - and failing miserably.

Im not working this week and no trades as of yet. What a waste!

New job starts Monday so wont be able to follow the live happenings when the action inevitably starts to happen.

Lift SOS!

Has timing always been an issue for you J08??

I think that's always been the case with him. Plays a tougher brand than his physique would suggest.

I reckon his versatility might be something that could really work well in our team, too. Our team doesn't actually have a lot of versatile players right now, but Martin could find himself working with SPS to make an unexpectedly smooth pair of HBFers, or maybe play a wing, or act as a small hit up forward, too. I don't think he's a full-time midfielder, but he can do a bit of everything and bring some class to it.

Its going to be another looooong day of not very much...

May today not be groundhog day, please

If we do land all those targets, Lang and Polson will not play seniors for us barring many injuries. Best to move them on.

I don't expect them to spend much time in the seniors, if any. That doesn't mean they hold zero value. They're not going to net us anything at the trade table but at least we know if we get caught with a slew of injuries we don't have to throw Finbar or an 18yo to the wolves.

If it came down to picking the two of the last players in the draft, possibly around 80, or keeping Lang and Polson for 1 more year I'd probably rather keep them instead of committing to 2 years for undoubtedly some speculative picks. Maybe Lang can finally get his ankle right and show something. Add in that for Polson we'd actually have to pay him out, I just don't see the point.

Why the prettiest, sweetest filly in the world of course. ☺
