Okay. I need to breathe. What's the realistic best case scenario on who we can get for our pick 12?

 

[new breed]

That’s a bit far too drive so lets make it Princes Park.

Can you cast an eye out for that pick 3 ....steal it , we then pretent this didn't happen.

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

I'm warning you all, only listen if you want to get more angry

I'm finally reaching the stage of acceptance, so idk if this will help, but I'm at work, so can you provide a summary (particularly the reasons why he enjoys trampling on the hopes of all Eagles fans)?

 

[The Gtrain]

Jack Darling

 

[DRK_13]

"Pyke said there was never any thought of walking Baker or Owies through the drafts despite having the option.
“That’s just not how we’re going to do business,” Pyke said."

Honestly rubbish. Bring the hard edge back please.

Ridiculous. This isnt high school. WCE arent the kid that tries to be everyone's friend by doing their homework, and people take advantage of.

If the alternative to "being the good guy" is getting bent over at the trade table, I know which one I would choose

 

[Deepthroat]

And these are the f*ckwits we have assigned to re-sign Harley....................

 

[bzparkes]

Man when Tim Kelly (31) and Yeo (31) fall off the cliff next year and we potentially finish worse then this year I want to see our clubs reaction

Dyson Sharpe, come on down...

 

[Ghossein]

hope you all managed to blow off some steam

okay nevermind then

 

[ronpingwins]

Okay. I need to breathe. What's the realistic best case scenario on who we can get for our pick 12?

There isn't really. We need to organise a tent scenario to get someone to slide. Lindsay and Travaglia are probably longshots but the best options in closish range.

 

[BG__]

Pyke's interview for those who missed it.

if i hear someone at the club say "commitment to baker" one more time i'll lose it

 

[Bender_]

I'm finally at the stage of acceptance.
Idk if this will help, but I'm at work, so can you provide a summary?

We'd committed to Baker before the end of the season. Our priority was to make that trade work. Ideally if Hawks didn't trade out 14 it would've been used for Barrass then for Baker. Coz they did, we had to find a way to make it work and that was to split 3. Only Carlton game to the party.

Then kinda ummed and ahhed about if Owies was best 22 or not. Then said Baker and Owies will drive up training standards and competition for spots and that they're were both quality men.

 

[Barrybran]

"Pyke said there was never any thought of walking Baker or Owies through the drafts despite having the option.
“That’s just not how we’re going to do business,” Pyke said."

Honestly rubbish. Bring the hard edge back please.

Why is it rubbish? Offering fair value creates goodwill with clubs and players. That said, it sounds like we bent ourselves over by making promises to Baker and Richmond knew it.

 

[Jupes]

Sorry to interrupt everyone's melting but just wanted to say that Baker is an elite Mid-Fwd according to Player Ratings.

Not a c list midget or 'another duggan' or 'Zac Langdon but with less sexy legs' or whatever else...

yeah he's right up there with alex neal-bullen

 

[The Gtrain]

I'm finally at the stage of acceptance.

• Baker is top 6 player at Richmond, the trade is connected to Graham and we were never going to walk anyone to PSD
• Owies has kicked goals, so must be good
• only had 3 and 26 to work with
• Looking at Dev
• some things happening next yr
• 12 is no where near as good as 3
• understands why supporters are asking questions
• sounded jovial
• Barrass trade is a cluster

Massive indictment on giving Owies 3 years if Pyke doesn't consider him best 22 lmao.

Goodwill just means we get exploited more often

yeah look how well the hawks looked after us for the brockman trade

 

[EagleMan87]

Don't forget Liam's training standards. He is going to lift our training standards.

We should get Masto and Priddis back; they'll get us training the house down in no time on the cheap.

 

[greatwhiteshark]

There is no point trading for Warner as it stands. We needed to bring in a top tier midfielder as well as other top talent in this draft.

Now if we go for Warner we are just going to Tim Kelly deal ourselves again because we only have Harley

Warner is twice the player Kelly is to start with. And you have to understand that you can get crap in the draft even with top picks. Warner will have a good 6-8 years if we can get him.
If he wants to come home it is a no brainer to try to and get him.

Dev for pick 73? Can we still match a bid for Champion?

 

[Big_Birdy]

Clarke 'ey



Pyke 'ey

 

[footy_basis]

Pyke is embarrassing.... hopefully he is gone quickly.

 

[Barrybran]

No, making stupid decisions means we get exploited more often

 

[Quinz]

Sorry to hear that boondy. No one deserves such cruel parents.
