Heath Shaw

[Bugglz]

He would be pushed out because he is acting like a cancer to the group. Making jokes about the whole thing that we are trying to fix up after mick "im so good" malthouse screwed up our culture. He doesn't like change. The so called brat pack "Shaw, Swan, Johnson, Didak" Johnson and Didak are worth nothing, might not even play on next year. Swan is not worth trading as he is getting old and getting a late first round, probs second round pick due to age is not worth losing his output he will still give us for the next 2-3 years.

Shaw is still an very good-elite AA backman, hes only 26ish so he still has alot of currency, and we have alot of backline depth. So why not rid the joint of the cancer who doesn't seem like hes willing to make a change?

Back in...

Once again this is just wild speculation, I have seen nothing to suggest that this is the case, that group lead Collingwood to a premiership just three years ago and have helped us to top four every year since (including last year under Buckley)...
Would you care to enlighten me on how Shaw is 'like a cancer to the group'? All i ever see is Shaw and the group sticking up for each other, plus Shaw wears his heart on his sleeve and shows plenty of on field leadership doing so.

Love how the North Melbourne chokers have to bring Black into it. There's one thing Reid has that Black never will get!

What a stupid comment. Another nuffy that thinks they can predict the next ten years.

 

[Swanzforeva]

Not many stats Reid leads Black in this year - maybe frees against.

Playing in a top 3 teams v 13th team. Black has 17 goals in 7 games and Reid has 7 goals in 9 games. Watts could kick 7 goals with the supply Swans give their forwards.

While we are on stats lets check out your last quarters

Yeah your right he could seek a trade and get a flag

Why has Black got into this thread? FWIW, Reid is a year younger than Black, Reid has taken the best forward since he started playing AFL, Black has played a handfull of games on the the third tall. Stupid comment bringing Black into it for a start and even more stupid thinking he has gone past Reid. This is about Shaw potentially going to the Swans not Aaron Black starring once in his career and all of a sudden being a superstar....

 

[Swanzforeva]

Black is nearing 23 and played 11 games sign him up as a hall of famer!

I was asked a question and answered Black - that is how his name came up. Reid has taken the best forward? Mate you need to get off the pipe.

Who else does?

 

[Wild Bill]

Richards takes the best forward. Reid is a forward.

 

[The Finger]

Sam Reid is better now and long term than Black its a non argument.

2013 no
Career so far yes
Future - who knows

 

[Swanzforeva]

He does both that's why he's so good. I wish he was as good as black tho

 

[The Finger]

Black has had one good game in his career.

 

[Swanzforeva]

Reid kicked 6 when he was 20

At the half way mark of 2013 who has had the better year?

 

[Wild Bill]

Reid kicked 6 when he was 20

Do you know which Reid you are talking about yet?

 

[HFF]

He is said to be unhappy with Bucks, thats the rumour anyway. If he wanted out Pies would prob have to accept a first round pick and maybe a fringe player. A pick plus Reid is redic. A 21 year old Key forward for a 28 year old back flanker, umm I dont think so champ.

You aren't dealing with the Crows and Tippett here.

Pies and Swans have a healthy record doing trades so if there ever was a trade to happen it would be done in good faith, not the "accept whatever" because of so and so reasons.

Do you know games are four quarters haven't seen your mob after three quarter time for a while

Black played a good game against West Coast and that's about it. Reid like the Swans build up through out the year. No one would take Black over Reid.

Totally agree we have traded well in the past both teams would be happy

 

[the distributer]

I don't think the Swans would want him TBH, HBFs aren't overly hard to get and i doubt they'd be interested in trading for one now FAs here, wouldn't make a lot of sense, if you're going to trade for one you'd want it to be a 23-24 yr old IMO.

It'll be a player swap if it happens.

Opinion is divided on the draft year thread.

 

[Wild Bill]

Reid kicked 6 when he was 20

McAdam kicked 10 against Sydney when he was 21.

 

[Swanzforeva]

McAdam kicked 10 against Sydney when he was 21.

Now norths lucky to kick 10 in a game

North supporters are well known for over rating their list. Black has played one good game in his career.
