List Mgmt. Collingwood Trade and FA

[cfc19902010]

Medhurst was left out of the side most of 2010 because he was incapable of performing a selfless, team-centric role that both Brent Macaffer and Jarryd Blair were able to play that year.

If Medhurst had been as dedicated to chasing and tackling as he was to kicking goals, he would have become a premiership player that year. It was fundamentally necessary to our gameplan that everyone was able to perform that role unless they were Alan Didak, and Paul Medhurst was no Alan Didak.

can't agree...all Australian 2008 and MM even conceded he was unfair on him by playing him in VFL..was much better footballer than Blair macaffer

Crayfish?
Bubble tea?
Chris Tarrant trade?

WTF

I feel like this is the only thread where going off topic is appropriate, especially since absolutely nothing is happening

Surely a club does a trade today. Even swapping picks in the 40’s. Something !

 

[Pistol Night]

Nope. We get it wrong in Australia. What we often call crays are usually rock lobsters. If,

• You caught it in salt water and it has no claws… It is a rock lobster
• You caught it in salt water and it has claws… It is a lobster
• You caught it in freshwater and it has claws… It is a crayfish.

Even though everyone calls southern rock lobsters crayfish

Bubble tea is . I just don't get the appeal of this fad.
Thought it was a Korean thing not Chinese though. I'm sure someone on here knows.

Taiwanese.

Leppa to announce Dan Houston is our new GM of footy.

I like it. Does that mean his salary only comes under the soft cap? Perhaps we could make Harry CEO

 

[Mollythedolly]

I agreed with Kane in why would we care what the Power did with the Picks we give them for Houston? If we're doing that, then we maybe we're looking to add something else in this trade...

Likely nothing to do with Port, and everything to do with us. We get 13 and 23 then we can split 13 and hope to retain 1 of 19, 22 or 23. We don’t trade 13 we’ll definitely lose 13 and 23 in the Houston deal.

I don't care, I call them delicious

True but they're wrong.

What is a crawfish I wonder?

 

[Exambolor]

Leppa might give us some actual clarity on where the Houston deal is at, considering that confusing Ralphy slop

Crawfish is just the American name for yabbies

 

[NMBB]

Yeah, just saw that. Their lack of claws probably makes them rock lobsters.

I like rock flathead vs sandy flathead - firmer flesh/ bit more flavour - also like:

Balmain/ Moreton Bay bugs

Lobster WITHOUT Thermi f&cken dor sh#te all over it

Years and years ago spent a summer working in Hotel Central in Lakes Entrance (side note - commercial fishermen weren't happy when out for 2-3; days and no catch)

But.... IIRC correctly could get 1/2 crayfish/ lobster salad for $1.50 - sigh

"Where the Crawdads Sing" is a good yarn....

I really enjoyed that movie

Thanks Manic. This has been so educational.

We need some trade news now, otherwise we're going to learn about every crustacean that swims, sidey should have been a doctor and majestic is a poet

 

[JLC]

I'm near-convinced that the AFL/Hutchy are the real masterminds over when trades go through, all to maximise engagement and revenue.

So if they have any sense of drama, they'd allow a big trade to go through today to set up excitement for next week.

100% and it's been like that for a while imo.

However, they run the risk of trade week losing its relevance. People will just tune in on the last day.

I reckon a deal or two will drop today or at the very least a new player progressed.

 

[sr36]

True but they're wrong.

What is a crawfish I wonder?

Not wrong. Just the Aussie name for them.

That be Great to get from actual Source and not a Guess

Don't even start me on prawns

 

[manicpie]

Don't even start me on prawns

Please, please, there's too many species

 

[Kirby]

Just saying prawns now leads me to wanting prawns for lunch.

God damn this thread!

 

[sr36]

It's circled back to trade week as Ralphy and Kane are definitely coming the raw prawn.
