Is this club ****ed or what

[IDGAF]

Polak and pick 13 for pick 8 sounds pretty good but didn't Miller say that we would have to offload someone due to budgetary constraints? There may be more happening tomorrow than we expect

Reckon we will see some action .

My hunch is Tuck will make way ... word around the campfire is he wants out and the Roos are keen but with thier recent history at the draft table would be more than just a little gun-shy at upsetting thier natives by trading away early picks again ... i reckon that is what is holding this up otherwise it would gone through a while ago

Possibly #8 + Krak for Polak + #13 + #47 (Freo's 3rd round pick)?

Im pretty sure this would free up the budget up for Polak and we get an extra 3rd round pick! (Or maybe 2nd round pick...if Freo were feeling generous )

The deal would have been a soda if they would take Krakouer but with Farmer and Medhurst on thier list he aint exactly a priority.

47 for Krakouer is giving him away too cheaply for mine ... the only way we would do that is to make him a bit of a sacrificial lamb in the name of fiscal needs

Thought i touched on it 7 posts ago .

So you are all up for writing off 20-21 year olds who get a little "wayward"

Imagine what life would be like if no-one ever got a chmnce for redemption .

...How come Gary Ablett got out of Hawthorn again ?

 

[Shane Hird]

I'll tell u wat it is,its richmond as usual being so desperate for a big forward to tske the pressure off Richo,u will jump at anyone who is up for grabs.Is that right wat i read today?,he wants 800,000 over three years?
BIGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG Gamble, me thinkith.

 

[PLSC]

he is slow and a crap defender, any reason why mcpharlin took his spot and killed it

he is a crap kick and not a reliable forward, murphy came in and killed it

last time i checked he wasnt a ruckmen

like i've said previous id rather trade our 8th pick for 2 10-20 picks and get 2 quality backmen than have anything to do with this dud

 

[Shane Hird]

thats wat im talkin about.couldn't agree more!

 

[Shane Hird]

i kid u all not,every Freo supporter over here r p...isng themselves laughing about u guys falling over yourselvs to get polak

And we're all pissing ourselves laughing because you cant punctuate your sentences properly.

"i kid u all not"

 

[Shane Hird]

I'm just trying to talk like the average tiger supporter and go down to your level.Go get Polak,c if i care,Buyer Beware!!!

I really doubt that. Nice comeback by the way, ferocious stuff.

Why are you telling us, if you dont care? Dont reply if you dont care.

Enjoy your night.

 

[tigerT]

we'll get him at the right price or we wont get him at all and he can go to the blues or essendon, sh.it happens...

 

[Shane Hird]

I care cause i like the tigers.i got good mates who follow the tiges and im sick of them being let down by this club with their crap recruiting decisions and Polak is just another waste of time and money for this once mighty club.But hey,its only the future of your club im talking about,nothin to serious hey??

I live in Freo and don't hear "every Freo supporter" laughing about it. He's one of those players who polarise people but this statement is wrong. Just as many think he can play as think he can't. I'm sure they all think he's wasted the talent, but so do we. And I'm not a Polak fan either but if we give up not much to get him I'm happy enough to give him a go. You can't generalise like that just to prove your own point and think you won't be taken to task.

We going to give up two first round draft picks for him?

u tell me what great things he will bring to Richmond?

Bring a highly promising 22 year old KPP to the list?

I'll tell u wat it is,its richmond as usual being so desperate for a big forward to tske the pressure off Richo,

How'd you go when the Ruski man went down?

u will jump at anyone who is up for grabs.Is that right wat i read today?,he wants 800,000 over three years?
BIGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG Gamble, me thinkith.

800 now eh..

 

[Bentleigh]

He is a decent speed, not slow.

McPharlin didn't take his spot. He switches ends - Michael Johnson & David Mundy play down back as CHB/HBF.

With the like of Marcus Drum also comming though they don't need Polak.

he is a crap kick and not a reliable forward, murphy came in and killed it

He has all the courage in the world, an vice-like set of hands.

last time i checked he wasnt a ruckmen

Good point..

like i've said previous id rather trade our 8th pick for 2 10-20 picks and get 2 quality backmen than have anything to do with this dud

I would be more than happy to have "this dud" at the club.





He has fanstas

 

[The White Tiger]

He has fanstas

Definitely get him if he has fanstas! We'll be unstoppable!

 

[Weaver]

have you seen this years top 8-10?

as i said before its not like last year when guys like pendlebury got to 5, this year is full of hard bodies, big blokes and tough nuts

Which is exactly why I have been saying all along that I expected us to be a team looking to trade our pick.

Gumbleon, Leunberger, Hansen and Gibbs suit us perfectly but will be gone.

Selwood is too slow for us

Armitage and Hislop are inside midfielders, which are not the type we go for.

Sellar is a clone of Pattison (although a slightly better one). He won't ruck and he will struggle in a KP.

Thorp is not quite a KP player and not quite a ruck-rover. He is the most likely if we keep our pick, but again not really our type.

Reiwoldt? Don't make me laugh.

Collard and Jetta are small half-forwards. Tippett a big gorilla FF. O'Brien a back-pocket specialist.

The guys that are the ones that we'd be looking at - Benjamin, Pettard, O'Keefe, Hawksley, Boak, Edwards, Houlihan, Connors - will all still be available at 13.

Said it over and over again. I am not sitting on the fence when I say I don't know who to take at pick 8. The players around that mark don't fit our profile. I have always thought we would end up reaching for a player that we could have gotten at 15.

No problem at all with trading pick 8.

 

[Jimmy Gwilt]

been reported that we had our 8th pick ON THE TABLE for polak and pick 13 from freo

seriously what the hell is going on, i know wallace is in the US but this is a joke

im over this ****

5 picks down the draft order means nothing and ur geting a player aswel

Like Troy Simmonds? Patrick Bowden? Would you care to list these crap decisions... without resorting to dredging up ancient history?
