These are Fukushima level melt downs, the best I’ve ever seen.
We might have to keep the ships with the water jets spraying this for months, years even.
Good luck Keys

If they cave on Barrass deal for unders too it could be Beirut harbour explosion levels.

 

[garlic munchers]

In late breaking news....... Woosha has requested a trade to Victoria.

 

[PremiershipNo4]

Maybe just maybe, pick 12 might end being a better footballer than pick 3.
They might not, but there is a possibility.

 

[Ruben Grubarb]

Carlton are winners of trade week.

- Everyone but Matt Clarke

 

[Big_Birdy]

Hard to see us improving at all for 2025. Early in 2026 vicco clubs will be in Harleys ear and if the Eagles are still a bottom 4 side you wouldn’t blame him for bailing on us.

The whole sweetener for a country Vic lad having to move over to Perth was that it’s West Coast and we have a history and culture of success. The last 3 years have been anything but and we have 18 months to climb up the ladder before Reid’s decision.

Todays trade makes that climb look very shaky

I annoyed with the trade. But our off-season has clearly improved our side.

All of Owies, Graham and Baker are far better players than the tripe we have been rolling out in our bottom 3 or 4.

 

[Smotie2]

Not trying to attack you directly, but laughable if we are thinking of going anywhere without adding elite talent.

We can beat the tiggers (x 2) for the next couple of years, maybe Roos twice this year, plus maybe a couple of upsets at home (i.e. Demons, Bombers).

Crows way better, Saints on the improve as are Pies, Freo and GC.

We are f####ed and I can only think our pygmy brains trust thinks the AFL will be showering us with PP's.

Scotty Cummings for CEO ASAP.

I agree with you. Just trying to work this shit out in my limited brain capacity.

 

[bzparkes]

It's ok guys, we'll hit the bargaining and acceptance periods very soon.

 

[Longwthebreeze]

Surely we could have got back Richmond pick 51 as steak knives... Surely..?... Anything!

[Ruben Grubarb]

If FOS or Draper end up being top 10 mids, it's going to be embarrassing. Clarke interpreted his own data wrong. He thinks you can build flag sides with role players and soldiers. He's just building the same list profile but hasn't considered where he's getting his Dusty and Cotch from.

 

[Bender_]

It's ok guys, we'll hit the bargaining and acceptance periods very soon.

I've vented enough now I'm on acceptance. The Barrass trade might force me back a couple of steps though.

 

[Big_Birdy]

Carlton are winners of trade week.

- Everyone but Matt Clarke

Carlton have given up 12, F1 and F2 for pick 3, in a draft where the top 15 can't really be split.

I think when a few journos have clamed down and actually seen the whole picture they have been realising what Carlton have done.

If we can turn 3 and TB into 12, F1 (Hawks), F1(Blues) and Baker and essentially 26, holistically we probably haven't done and that bad.

My issue is we could have turned 3 and TB into 12,14, F1 (Hawks), F1(Blues) and Baker. That would have been a good trade period.

 

[amazingjoshy]

It's ok guys, we'll hit the bargaining and acceptance periods very soon.

I'm at acceptance I think

If we do land Dev Rob that's 4 new players into our 22 from the crap shoot we've been watching the last 4 years

Change was needed so will be refreshing to watch something different at least

 

[kerrazy]

Can we somehow get Langford? Perhaps clubs could be scared off by his lack of agility and speed and he slides to our pick?

I annoyed with the trade. But our off-season has clearly improved our side.

All of Owies, Graham and Baker are far better players than the tripe we have been rolling out in our bottom 3 or 4.

This. People moan about Witherden, Cripps, JJ, Edwards (x2), Rotham etc but when we make moves to shuffle them down the order (or to the delist pile) people still moan.

Yes, 99% of us disagree with the price paid for Baker and Owies, but at the end of the day those three are now on the list and immediately walk into the first 23.

 

[Big_Birdy]

Can we somehow get Langford? Perhaps clubs could be scared off by his lack of agility and speed and he slides to our pick?

With Tigers, Dees and Saints all having multiple picks before us, very likely one of the highly rated mids slide to us.

 

[Farang83150]

Doubtful we get 2 x F1 for Barrass.

 

[EagleMan87]

Reminding me of that year we brought in collica, harding, merenda, taylor, sierakowski and prior.

So Owies will kick goal of the year?

 

[6285sutto]

Thank god for Collingwood, I think they just trumped us for worst trade of 2024.

With Owies, Baker and Graham in the team, I wonder if Ryan moves to half back or wing and Cripps becomes depth.

 

[happy_eagle]

I assume the thought process is after Hawks traded out pick 14 and grabbed 2 x R1 next year, we decided we couldn't get what we wanted this year from them and made the call for short term pain/long term gain by splitting the pick with Carlton and getting Baker. Now we go back to the Hawks and get their picks from next year for Barrass and we use them for Warner next year.

Great, but this scenario has little or no bearing on trading Baker and Pick 3 this year.

As soon as Hawks traded their first rounders, it pretty much destined us to getting next years F1 for Barrass. So okay, take that and use it for Warner next year, keep Pick 3 this year and use it.

Us trading Pick 3 for 12, Baker and Owies does not change our draft hand next year to get Warner.

 

[happy_eagle]

The picks we get for Barrass will all be futures now

They were always going to be once Hawthorn traded their current picks to Carlton for futures

 

[PremiershipNo4]

I’m still too happy that Simmo is gone to let any minor trade stuff ups stop the endorphins flowing.

 

[Wormkilla]

I thought the Kelly trade was bad, but today might pip it for worst trade of all time. We are a complete laughing stock. I'll get my popcorn ready to see how clowns like Miguel Sanchez are going to justify this.

 

[garlic munchers]

I've vented enough now I'm on acceptance. The Barrass trade might force me back a couple of steps though.

So what you are saying is, I will ultimately accept this and regret venting at 8:13am this morning regarding having overpaid my memberships last year?

 

[Deepthroat]

I had more hope 12 months ago than I do today.
