Cooney is also painful on trade radio.

Was flicking through the channels on FTA on Friday night and saw him on a TV show on CH7. He was painful on there too.

Could well be the dumbest of the lot, can't remember exactly what they were but remember thinking how utterly stupid and uninformed some of his trade/draft suggestions were last yr.

Pretty sure the mega trades are just engagement farming, im sure the producers at trade radio have a say on the mega trades to make sure theyre not balanced

They're preposterous. They simply do not have enough content to fill their allocated time so they just make shit up or go crazy with ridiculous tripe.

Just saying, this board has managed to fill up 265 pages of trade talk in 1 month...

Cooney is also painful on trade radio.

Trade Radio is a painful listen DURING the trade period. I couldn't imagine listening to it before the actual period starting.

Most of the decent media performers have good contracts that have them on holidays as soon as the Grand Final is finished.

So you are left with the likes of Cooney, Jenkins etc.. to cover the trade period.

Weird take. Ginbey looks like a potentially elite defender. You'd take that every day of a week from an early pick (see: Brad Sheppard).

Jenkins has clearly never actually watched him play.

I'm sure Jenkins has watched Ginbey play, but there's almost no doubt his vision would have been significantly impaired watching from the periphery of his arse.

To be fair it would be hard for jenkins to watch the play further up field as hes constantly running towards goals for the cheap possie.

thanks for posting this. this will be a good listen.

Wow, finally someone against the idea of Baker for 13.

Common sense exists!

Good to see Cuz healthy and also love seeing how visibly happy he is reflecting on his playing days.

Tom Mitchell is a fairly shithouse interviewer though.
