Sounds like nobody's going to get suspensions when this is all said and done. Just fines and a big nothing burger overall.


I predict that the use of the word "woke" in response to this breaks the internet.
 
The shai bolton trade puts the pie's houston trade in the shade... I know the dockers are preparing themselves for a flag tilt and they are desperate and willing to do all that it takes, but i'm not sure that I would be relying on bolton to deliver the goods. He's too talented not to have an impact, and maybe he was playing in a bad team, but the draft cost is signficant and then the salary is probably extreme. I live in freo. I think they've paid their dues, so if the pies cant win it, i wouldnt mind seeing them getting there....but this is one helluva gamble.

I don't understand trade week Maths.

Apparently 12,14 and steak knives for pick 3 was an absolute bargain.

But 10,11 and steak knives was way over the top for Bolton

And I'm pretty confident that 3 for Bolton would have been seen as about par.

It depends on who is delivering the message. Obviously, the canetoad didnt like the eagles move. Others say it is a smart thing to do for that sydney wimp next year.

The bolton thing is twice as extreme as the houston one.....on my newly invented scale. Bolton is 2 years younger but he's flakey. Freo is putting the family home on the pile to win the big one. It's severely going to limit the payment options for other players and they will be under pressure in a few years if their younger players want a pay rise.

I think clubs are living more for the present....and the pies are leading the charge

Whole thing seems totally bizarro... bunch of footballers, end of season get together, private space, booze... what could possibly go wrong... those skits must have been pretty out there to get this sort of reaction...I'm betting we never get the full story..

The other thing which is really important is that no one cares about freo.... even over here its the beagles that get the front page harley news every day of the week for months on end.

The melb sports media just cant generate hype with stuff involving freo

Has it had a big reaction due to the whatever took place? As far as I'm aware, we don't even know what took place.

All I've heard is a bartender was offended.

The reaction seems to have come from the AFL imposing suspensions/fines..for things we don't have any details on.

I was referring to the AFL's reaction... as you say we have no idea what took place
 
I heard someone dressed as Diddy and someone was dressed as Raygun. I think it was more of what they were doing that raised eyebrows. But honestly, blokes at a private Mad Monday function what do they expect? Sudoku completions and Playstation?
no dwarf throwing involved either as i understand

Ah, it’s classic numberwang.

I think us Pies fans prefer really early picks, because (Bontempelli) > (Scharenberg + Freeman).

Personally I’m happy for Carltank to mortgage their future for the next Paddy Dow.
