[FishingRick04]

Cassisi is from WA!

Jonas?

So is Steven Rowe. Maybe he can go back with a stale hot dog thrown in…

The North board - what a doozie

 

[OneGreatClub]

Unless you’re Geelong. Didn’t they get away with in a couple of years ago during the Cameron trade?

And weren’t Hawks allowed to do it too?

 

[OneGreatClub]

Looks like it’s gonna be Houston

He doesn’t want to go and is contracted until 2027?

 

[longdonkey]

Bonner, Houston, Georgiadies, Butters, Marshall, Duursma, Sinn, Bergman, who else has been named.

Honestly am surprised we haven't heard about SPP yet. From a WA perspective.

Drew and Hayes also surprisingly not mentioned yet from a Vic perspective.

Look forward to hearing more names in next 6 days.

Well I think they would be regarded as Last Chance Saloon because they would rate these guys as being a pick in the 50's in line with their other valuations.

Is that worth pick 1 and JHF?

 

[PowerBaz]

Is this what they say when the player refuses to go… one big circus.

When the first round picks were 16 after FS and next years 15-18, they're barely even 1st rounders. And Brisbane still wanted a host of 2nd and 3rd rounders back after giving them.

Our 8 obviously would've been closer to the mark because it at least gives WB a low pick that's fair. So 2 x speculative last first rounders aren't really excessive. I mean we probably wouldn't even do our 8 for 15 + 15-18.

Brisbane are the ones being unreasonable though, when they have zero leverage. They have now gone down to 21 +future 1st. So i totally understand the Dogs position and would be surprised if they don't push him to the PSD. Dunkley would be nervous as hell.

That's what Richmond gave for Taranto who was a former Pick 2 and nobody seemed to think that they gave unders for him

The bed wetters in the last few pages of the thread need to prepare themselves for the fact this deal isn't being done till the last day. Likely not until the final few minutes either.

I don’t think so only because North just can’t afford to tie up their flexibility for that long. If it was Geelong then yes I would agree with you but north, they need to do the deal and move on quickly for obvious reasons. I suspect the deal is imminent despite what the media says.

The North board - what a doozie

I think they're the worst on BigFooty by some margin.

Someone made a hilarious gag about rejecting the trade request and then taking JHF's SIM card out of his phone and moving him in with one of the assistant coaches.

A stack of likes ensued.

SO FUNNY AY

What reasons? This is their major deal to do. They have no obvious reason not to do the best thing by their club and absolutely maximise the return for JHF.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

And I posted in the main board thread again… why?

It's funny just to watch them froth

And then insist we have more to lose lol.

It wasn't, but GWS weren't also giving all their 2nd and 3rd round picks to Richmond.

That's what Brisbane are asking for because of the points they need. WB rightly said no, it should just be the 2 deep 1sts going their way.

 

[OneGreatClub]

A deal to be done for Ratugolea to Port.
Crows had planned to present Rankine to the media this pm as a done deal but are still haggling over some later picks in the deal.

One of them with 'inside info' claimed for the deal to happen Port need to give up pick 2, a future first (how we get pick 2 AND keep our future first is anyone's guess) and a good player.

And then without a hint of self awareness said that nobody at the club will be unhappy to see him go lol.

They’ve been wedged. JHF doesn’t want to be there and North have reluctantly accepted it. North will cut their losses and move on quickly to consider further options during the trade period, not chew up time with this trade with being unproductive.

 

[Malibu#27]

Any chance that Ryan does those on ground announcements at west coast games similar to Theo for the crows ?

He has that brainwashed fanboi vibe pumping out WCE povs constantly.

Yeah it's not as though all those players Clarko had told to hold off are still holding.

They have nothing else to do.

Pick 8, F1 and a discount book for the spirit of Tasmania.
Get it done ports

don’t understand how we do though? Worst that can happen is Adelaide join the race next year and grab him. No matter what they lose him, for less than what they could have got this year.

But those morons will probably take it as a win and gloat about losing him for less than what they could get this year.
Yeah would suck, but we wouldn’t have actually lost anything..
Righteo boys. Righteo.

Taranto was 16 and a 2 round. I would just like to see some sort of precedence that Dunkley is worth 2 1st Round picks. Cerra was a 1st and a 3rd admittedly a fairly high 1st Round but went to 8 after father/sons. They used it to get Amiss. Cerra is worth more than Dunkley.
