It’ll get done at the last minute. there are no stars/great players that want to go to Norf, they have no reason to need the picks for anything straight away.

As Rioli really is a packet of chips (3rd rounder), makes sense to try and get that done (also Esava) sooner than later.

The hold up. It’s just the public perception for WC that will slow things down - they want Rioli tied into the JHF deal, so they can feel like he is worth more than he is. WC looked like fools with their bad taste commentary when Rioli annnounced out. It was really poor form. They want a good luck story just because of the media attached.

I’m going to revel in their demise.

I can't see their demise anytime soon, unless the AFL resurrects another equally irrelevant Melbourne club to take their place. It's sickening to be honest. The AFL is just a disgusting organisation. If Port weren't in it i'd never even watch a game.
 
I never went away, was just on mute for 24hours.

Very sensitive on the norf board. Considering the bile they’ve been spewing I thought it was a pretty lame ban.
They win spoons over there for fun, so can understand them naturally being touchy when they support such a bottom feeder club.

We can all dream the proper AFL finally gets formed with the Roos moving to Tassie, but although it is the right thing for the comp it probably ain't happening.
 
Pick 8, F1 and a discount book for the spirit of Tasmania.
Get it done port

I think Tasmania deserve better than that, erase North Melbourne scrubbers from existence and allow Tasmania to start a fresh.

I understand not wanting to cough up a decent young player and get it done with only picks but we're going to have to be the side that overpays here. It's just not worth the risk letting him get through next year with the option of either staying at North or Adelaide opening the door. Rozee, Butters, George and Marshall should be the only players off the table. Get JHF in the door and we have the core to build around long term and still contend now.

How did you guys get a 24 hour ban and the dockers rubbed me out for a week!

I was just being funny... Some people have no sense of humour.
Unrelated to the topic, but I did notice that we are one of the few boards with no ‘no oppo supporters’ topics.

On topic, this deal will get done. Just a matter of posturing from North, which I don’t really blame
 
You're dreaming. This deal will be signed off Wednesday night at 7pm. Better get yourself prepared for that.

All good, we will see.
 
The key to getting the JHF deal over the line is to get our pick 8 under 5. General impression is that top 5 are elite/ very good and that it drops slghtly after that. A sub 5 , next years first probably gets it done.
 
I just don't understand why we seem to be rolling over including West Coast in this three way when it is so obvious all they are trying to do is shaking Georgiades loose. If Norf aren't happy to take 2 x first round picks and a second, they are not going to take 2 and a second.

And to be honest I'm not sure losing 8, next years first, next years second and a good player is a worthwhile deal for us and we might as well wait till next year.

Come the last day North accept 8 and our future first.
