Clay Hall

Could even potentially throw Van Rooyen in the mix if he keeps progressing.

Better beaches??? I don’t think so

I wouldn't got there if you are discussing Geelong, its all down hill if you surf.

 

[ziad]

Been to Tasmania?

Confusion - is this related to Tassi or Geelong

IF WC could get Edwards , Tholstrup and Hall or Van Rooyen from the number 1 pick , pretty handy additions to a rebuild .

Which they are.

 

[Deplorable trumpster]

It’s amazing how he oscillates between “Simpson is desperately clinging to power”, “Simpson looks like he doesn’t want to be there” and “Simpson shouldn’t be hanging around like this”.

The internal inconsistency between those positions would give most posters pause for thought.

Interesting how you deliberately avoid rebutting the main point of the post with a coherent counter argument. As usual. Because you don't have one.

Maybe for the first time in your life on these boards you can try to actually post a coherent argument. If you don't like or agree with what somebody else thinks then post a counter opinion. All you ever have is snark and ad hominem attacks. It is pathetic.

Lets try an experiment and see if you can post your first ever coherent rebuttal on here. Here is the major point -

It is not in Adam's Simpson's personal best interest to continue coaching the club through the next two seasons after this and then going if he shares the view of the majority of the AFL community that we are likely to be bottom 4 for another two seasons. He might earn a little bit more money after tax than he would earn doing something else. But he would already be pretty wealthy so i don't think the money would be a big deal. And on the other side of the coin it will be very painful and unenjoyable to cop all the blame for another two years, he might get sacked which is worse than leaving on your own terms, he won't get much credit even if he does lay the platform for future successes for the next coach in those two years (the next coach will get the credit, which is a point Simpson has repeatedly made in interviews) and he diminishes his chances of getting a senior coaching job somewhere else in the future.

Please give us a coherent rebuttal addressing the above points and explaining why you disagree and think it is in the interests of a person in Simpson's circumstances to coach the team for another two years and then leave as opposed to going at the end of this year.

Can one of the mods point trumpster to the right thread cleary can’t read that this is the trade and draft thread.

Clay Hall

I don’t get to see the Wa boys much looking forward to the 18s carnival.
What can you tell me about Clay Hall?

 

[wirra44]

Swan set to stay, Pie in talks, clubs target Hawks tall

Clubs circling Culley, very surprising a contract hasn’t been put in front of him yet

Bolter chance of the draft , highly rated by team mates . Tough midfielder is what we need but long way to go .

 

[Nuffington Post]

Imagine the outs in a few weeks time when the Hawks and Eagles are playing off for Reid. Will be an AFL game featuring the Beagles and Box Hill.

Imagine if we had to forfeit against the Hawks

We'd get f all if he leaves as well. wtf are we doing, offer this bloke a contract extension asap.

Hard to mount a coherent counter argument against someone whose position changes so often. It’s like trying to stitch a button onto a plate of jelly.

 

[SumaGodCoach]

These personal vendettas are a nice little break from talking about footy.

Cleary can’t make a single point without making it five points either

 

[ronpingwins]

The won't pick Reid bit is rubbish. But I could certainly see us being happy to end up with 2 of Edwards/Curtin/Tholstrup.

I’m convinced this is what our recruiters will be thinking. Strategy to get as many of those 3, Hardeman, Hall, SVR etc.

 

[dinnaz]

I know this is just an unsubstantiated rumour, but thoughts?

Is this a Laidley joke?

Sounds more like Petrie maybe?

You really think Petrie is telling randoms what our draft strategy is assuming he even knows or that our recruiters have anything resembling a firm idea on draftees 6 months out before any crucial matches have been played

It’s total BS

Yeah of course, but I think that’s probably who they’re talking about.

 

[JackOutback]

These personal vendettas are a nice little break from talking about footy.

Can we go back to talking about our position on the Voice?

 

[Mattman93]

You're not happy with what you've seen from Ginbey?

Nah, happy enough. Looks like he'll be clear best 22.

 

[ziad]

In relation to my claim that the beaches in Tassie are better than Geelong, I guess.

Which they are.

mmmm personal taste I guess

 

[new breed]

Yeah of course, but I think that’s probably who they’re talking about.
