Rumour Buried Treasure (name WIP) - unconfirmed gossip.

[Moo]

There is a lot of smoke regarding Dan Curtin. Another benefit of targeting Pickett and not Warner is more cap space for players like Curtin to join the ranks. Not quite as bullish on him as others so I'm happy to wait another year to monitor his progression. Idk if a trade can happen before his contract ends.

Curtin in my opinion will always be the WA IT

Showing your age Moo.

I'll share something I heard ages ago. This player, who didn't do drugs, would be frustrated when they all returned from the off-season that he was in less shape than those blokes that did do drugs. So this poor bugger, who did the right thing and only drank beers in the off season, had to do extra work on the track to catch-up to those naughty boys who indulged in recreational drugs.

However true or not I have NFI as I heard it third hand. But it seemed/seems plausible, and it rammed home to me how many players in the system do things they shouldn't. Including those at my club. I think Dale Lewis was right and was hung out to dry by the AFL boys club.

Curtin would be perfect in about 5 years

Right in that age that we kinda have a deadzone of due to sitting out a couple drafts

i mean he didn't do the right thing if he came back out of shape.

I always dug the idea that they were originally going to call it the "institute of technology and commerce."

I started at WAIT, ended up at Curtin University of New Technology, then put on so much weight i needed to wear a curtain.
Unfortunately I had to wait a long time to shed the weight

What I'm getting is that Swaggy needs to do more drugs or he can GTFO!

*For any kids reading, don't do this. Leave it to the professionals

Do people on here rate Curtin? Feels like all the talk is that he's seriously underperformed from expectations so far?

 

[serial_thrilla]

Are there any further details on the hat?

It rules out Hugh Davies.

He's played 7 games and a few of them he was the sub.

197cm kid with agility... I'd take the Punt on him.

Only had 1 year so far

Thought he looked pretty good as a forward tbh

Alcohol is the most damaging drug you can put in your body so I'm not surprised that
A) players that smash the piss over summer come back more out of condition than others, and
B) elite athletes often prefer drugs over alcohol.

Each to their own though. I'm drinking a beer as I write this.

Hardcore. I take it shooting up heroin was a gateway drug to your alcohol consumption.

I'm not actually qualified to weigh in on whether alcohol or opium is worse for you but I know you can only get one of them in hospital when you're sick.

I brew beer so I'm no alcohol hater. But it makes sense to me that professional athletes would prefer other options to alcohol.

This thread is already a dumpster fire. Why do we even need it?

Anyway, does anyone know if AB has joined Freo golf club yet?
