With Smith a possibility

Oliver’s meeting yesterday

Martin to Geelong

That’s Bulldogs, Demons + Calton fans we’ve p1ssed off

Hawks + Tigers fans hate us

Who else do we add to our Bingo card?

All this Smith + Oliver trade discussion is thirsty work, just scooted to the bottle shop + old mate Tuggers’ fan started in on me

Long story short.

F1 picks
Dees want Oliver to stay
Doggies deserve top $ for Smith
Geelong no salary cap
Yadayada!

My retort: “Did you see video of Dusty saying he’s happily retired? Well, a close friend in Geelong recruitment department said Geelong has already signed Dusty”

Damnation! Wish I’d said Martin instead of Dusty

Love how everyone's questioning our management integrity for taking;

• a delisted player and
• a player not wanted by his club that noone else is prepared to trade for.

Found it:

Crameri goes in the 28+ category I think, so that's another one who didn't work out. Interesting list. I'm not optimistic on Martin bucking the trend tbh, I'd put money on him playing less than 10 games for Geelong before he retires/gets delisted again.

 

[Gavin Excell]

Not thrilled by J Martin
Flimsy player

 

[BIGANT]

Sorry if it's been asked but...why ? Don't get me wrong bocoz I didn't mind Jack through his career as an oppo supporter but putting our mc caps on or list management caps on, where does he fit in ? Fwd/mid rotation role ? Thanks in advance

We may be aiming to get Martin through the season so that he is fit and in form for the finals. He looks like the sort of player whose skills are suited to finals and I don’t think he would have had much opportunity for that at the Blues.

Yep, right on Crameri. Martin has in his favour the low cost so no big deal if he does play under 10.

Wow mate. I didn't know that. I hope everything is travelling ok.
Have they diagnosed a particular condition? i.e Pitt Hopkins, Angleman. Or did they just say lvl 2 autism (for example).

My oldest has level 3 autism and moderate intellectual disability. We think he might possibily have CP (not directly related) but waiting on an MRI to be done and some genetic testing. Our 5yo has level 2 autism and ADHD (I do understand TK's dilemma re the kids). We are lucky these days that the assessments are better than they used to be.

Who cares about the money. The Fed government will give us cash for a stand that never gets built.

Then increase Land Taxes by 400% and charge Capital Gains tax on unrealised gains from re-zoning without selling the property... CCP/USSR style. Someone is still paying for it lol

No video, no grand reveal? Step up your game BAZooka!

 

[CatToTheFuture]

A fit Martin will keep guys like Close/Ollie Henry/Mannagh on their toes.

Worth it just for the selection integrity

nominates Geelong thread is now open

List Mgmt. - Bailey Smith officially nominates Geelong

As per Cal Twoney Do we need to get the butter chicken ready?

An easy option to keep Bailey chat in one location, and keep other non Bailey chat here - note, there's no issue for discussion to continue in this thread

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Hmm and not much room for a resting Dangerfield. The smalls are pretty reliable when it comes to injury too. I think Dempsey to the wing/midfield group is an almost certainty, but it’s still a tight group to break into.

Maybe one more year on the wing for Ollie but the way he moves i think he has a bit of Connor Rozee about him

If Smith has already bought a house in Geelong, is a farm still thrown in?

Wow. I hope the mods let me post this, just this once.
I have a neighbour whose daughter is lvl 3 and non verbal. I see how hard it is.
Follow Neuren pharma. It's an Aussie company.

They are trying to do everything in this space. And ph3 trials are coming in 4 months. I dont know your specifics but just (maybe ask) to see if you could be included in Australian trials. If they even do that.
They already have an approved drug for retts. They specifically target kids.

Thought the info may help.
