Swans fan on their board. "This sport is testing my loyalty to the Swans".

6 Grand Finals and 2 flags in the last 20 years. Cry me a river.

Obviously wasn't around during the early 90s

Wasn't there some guy on here who was a Bombers fan but defected to the Swans. Was this him?

LukeParkerno1 who was Bombersno1. It wasn't him.

Zach Merrett has to be up there.

Elmer in the “most overrated players” thread.

Ratten is now a Shinboner.

Coaching record of 0-5
Does he get a statue if he actually wins a game?

In fairness he was only 6 points off winning their GF.

They can’t give that. The best they can do is the promise of a statue pending the club being able to afford the statue

McGrath with 20 disposals for 145m gained.

Biggest crab in the game.

Did someone make sure our favourite hawthorne mod got the memo regarding McGrath moving to the backline half way through last year.

He’s a sideways handballing chip scab who they burnt Pick 1 on and it’s great.

Context added.

Nope, definitely didn't get the memo, context was added though.

McGrath also went on to crab 11 more disposals for a total of 373m gained, 5th for Essendon and 10th overall.

Good job Andy 'Chip Crab Scab' McGrath.

It’s not delusional if it’s partly true

Also.. crabs are both delicious and pretty cool

Hope he enjoyed the game.

He can play this week and against Melbourne and name him for *. But when we play * Clarko can walk into the changerooms before the game, throw him an * jumper and tell him to * off to the other change rooms, reminding everyone we only want players committed to North. Then have security frog march him out.

And if he plays against Melbourne, you lot better boo the * out of him.

 

[Pweter]

Gee I'd hate to run into that dude, sounds really tough. And ruthless.

 

[IriDiuM]

Gotta love the faux-outrage, when we all know they're also looking at that potential compo pick and they know which one they'd rather have.

 

[doug85]

I am not allowed to comment on this matter further according to moderators.

But everyone knows I know what I’m talking about. Probably the best poster on big footy in terms of knowledge.

Just annoying that it takes people a while to see my predictions and then when I’m proven right people start crying at my facts

 

[silk]

So I know it's like fish and barrel with Barrett and delusional pearlers, but his attempt to claim this week's game for Adelaide is as important as their Grand Final appearances is pretty ****en amazing.

 

[Atavistic]

From the North board:

Gc should be investigated. That's a disgusting effort.

 

[doug85]

From the North board:

So they’ll tank to improve the draft hand they’re trading out/burning on academy players. Far out

 

[eth-dog]

Since when were screenshots not allowed in here? I thought we couldn't tag them. Anyway, Hawthorne fans taking it well:

So we have missed on a best 22 key defender, our most pressing need and have now moved back a draft spot. Surely everyone can see that as everyone shares the same view that it's a big loss ?

Not when the price is almost a mil at 6 years.

 

[Beerfish]

Since when were screenshots not allowed in here?

Since a long time now.

 

[eth-dog]

Since a long time now.

Fair enough. Genuinely didn't realise.

Really, Shiel is borderline untradeable. There is no sugar coating it, or talking it up.. Borderline untradeable.

Injured. No preseason until January at best. Pace is gone. Has an ongoing foot problem

Averages 13 games per year over the past three. (best run in 2021 of 19 games).

31 years old in March.

Two to three seasons left at best.

He's cooked. Extremely limited value in adding this player to your list.

Pick 31 back for Shiel and Pick 8. We are buying that pick, and a speculative player, with known history however, for that seven figure salary. As awful as it sounds.

Pace is gone and he's borderline untradeable.

I am NOT a crackpot.

Best bit is a seven figure salary. He's probably on a reduced wage for next year, not expanded
