Thoughts on picking up Soldo this trade period ?

Pass

 

[cats_09]

I only update myself on the draft looking at this Geel thread

But has Houston actually nominated a preferred club yet

And it wont be in the last hour when things get done , it will be in the last 15 minutes

My understanding is that he hasn't directly nominated a club as he was somewhat open to where he's traded and wanted Port to have some flexibility with the trade

But I believe that he's ruled out North & Melbourne as options, with Collingwood or Carlton in the box seat

You've edited my post.

And yeah, I knew that you would say that.

Pride is the most cardinal of sins.

No I haven't. I didn't touch your post.

His missus hates Adelaide, what do you reckon she'd think of Geelong?

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Ok

So which one of you buggers (term of endearment) doubles as Ports list manager...

And whichever one it is, hurry up and accept a further 4th in exchange for Butters

Do not blow my cover. This has been years in the making.

Don't think she'd think about geelong much living in Dubai

 

[Strange Cat]

Don't think she'd think about geelong much living in Dubai

Oh she will go very well over in Dubai …I hope she packed some goggles and a plastic raincoat

No I haven't. I didn't touch your post.

Evidence points to the contrary. Have a look please.

And I'm not saying that you did it on purpose either.

day 1 vs date 1.

Dunno why they felt the need to point it out - it makes no material difference to their outdated, irrelevant point.

 

[foxdog50]

Zero chance we do it to him.
Zero

The guy isn't a pick 60 type. If he improves us immediately. You trade.
What amazes me is that the dogs have nothing to use as bait for any other deal. They are shooting themselves in the foot.

I honestly think there is a serious chance that Bailey Smith will get picked up in the draft.. And Smith Management are understanding that this is a serious chance and are confident that if it does they will still end up Geelong

 

[BlakeyNoFlakey]

I'm inclinded to think a deal will be done for Smith in the end. It would be madness for the Dogs to let him go for nothing. They may not get the picks they wanted, but at least they'll get a decent pick in the top 30.

I have to ask, though I daresay I'll demonstrate my naivety......

How does someone edit another's post?

I've always thought a person's post was untouchable by anyone else?

 

[Art Vandelay_]

The only club in the draft that worries me selecting Smith is Richmond.
Could have 5-6 picks inside 20 and see him as a mature age mid to help their rebuild. Back themselves as a big Melbourne club to placate his ego and stay.

 

[Turbocat]

They will add 38 and take a late pick back the other way on Wednesday night I think. But if that's not enough for power we will take him in the draft.

Yes .. I think the 38 for 48 pick slide ..keeps the future untouched… and lets them save a little bit of face… but if they say no to that then on their head be it...

 

[bellpark]

Forget Soldo - knee issues and attitude questionable. I wonder, given the poor state of Conway’s feet, would they look at the Southport captain, Crossley, a 25 year old ruckman. Bridge player as we gamble on Conways fitness and Mitch Edward’s developing.

I didn't realise that I was a they my passive aggressive little friend.

The story of Jesus will never be outdated. It was here before you and it will be here long after you.

Nah it's pretty easy to do if you want to dude. Not a nice thing though.

I am sure we will throw in a later pick to save some face for the Dogs.

I am not worried about this deal.

It will happen and won’t involve next year’s first. Anything else on the picks side would be fine by me.

Erm, you could have edited yours? IDK, I can't see the edit history of others.

Anyway, I think we can agree that whatever it is, it matters not. I doubt either of us did it deliberately. I'm not petty enough to do that for internet points.

what pick do they give us to take him?

You can't, but what you can do is edit the quote. See below:

Yeah, I know. Either I've accidentally mashed the touchscreen on the phone, or Stan noticed a typo and edited. Doesn't matter a jot anyway

Doesn't look like the type we go for... but i've said that about other players we have drafted, and so i don't really know.

They're a side i have absolute confidence won't select him. Yze is yet to win over that playing group and they are about to bring a whole new generation of impressionable teenage kids. They absolutely are not going to bring in a highly paid, recognisable name who does not want to be there and isn't about to buy into Yze's message.

Leadership is hard enough without voices that undermine you.

I think you can put a line through pretty much every side except the pies and even then they need to get 13 and miss on Houston at the same time.

Shame on you for accusing me of that!
