Seriously I don’t what Dan Houston is thinking anymore. Has a girlfriend in Melbourne? Would she be dating him if he wasn’t an AFL footballer?
It’s not like Adelaide is on the other side of the world I know a couple of soccer players who have had to move to Europe to chase their dreams.
 
My god your inconsistent messaging annoys me. One minute one can’t look at the history of draft picks the next minute you highlight the history of draft picks. What next, you will defend Marshall because he is played out of position?

I have no idea what on earth you are talking about, you have a weird grievance with me.

Exactly. She should have just moved to Dubai and tried to make it as an influencer air hostess.
 
I think it is a little more complicated than that. I think Esava moving out was part of the improvement too.

Things improved without Esava because he struggled to understand what his purpose was in defense and pretty much tried to become a second Allir when there is only room for one and they just go in each other's way. Bergman and Evans improved things for sure, but Allir improved too once Esava moved out.

Maybe your model might work if Bergman effectively replaces Houston. Bergman can do the intercept mark part better but clearly a big drop off in the kicking.
I thought the idea when we got Rat was that he was going to be the defensive back that allowed Aliir to play the intercept role but in many games it happened the other way. Which meant Rat was taking the intercept mark and that meant he had to kick it. And that's where the problem started.
 
With Carlton and Hawks swapping picks
Could freo offer tigers 10 11 and 18 for Bolton and Baker.
We then trade Houston to Roos for pick to.
We swap pick 2 for 10 and 11 or 10 and 18 with the tigers
 
Can’t understand the problem these partners have with Adelaide.
Yes it’s no nightlife bonanza but people in general don’t go out and party like they used to no matter what state you’re in.
I guess if your making 600k a year it puts you in a different world to the average Joe but even if I was pulling that sort of cash Melbourne would be the last place I’d want to live.

C4 said that Collingingwood wanted 13, 23 and Humphrey for Noble and F1.

Good to see Leppitsch is not only pissing off Port with his ridiculous trade demands.

Can I risk agreeing with you. These players and probably of more importance their partners represent the worst of first world problems.

Clubs are just taking the piss out of GC now. Hope they don’t let it slide for everyone except us, that’d drive me up the wall.
 
Richmond is in Melbourne, it’d be a horrendous career move for Dan and doesn’t make much sense for their timeline but I think they might end up being the only club who has the type of currency that could entice us, and they have a ****ton of said currency as well.

We could probably do that with north's future first. Tigers already stated that if they end up with the kind of draft hand that they will have they would prefer to take extra pucks into next year as they don't want 10 awesome kids who all come out of contract in the same year. I think that thinking had some bearing on signing balta for 7 years 🤔
