List Mgmt. Our Trade/FA, Suburban & Country Town Thread

[Pistol Night]

Whats a best and fairest finish got to do with being a captain?

Was old Corn nuts criticising Port when their captain was that shit he was playing SANFL?

 

[Apex36]

Omg. It just keeps getting worse.

Yes because apparently the AFL works the same way as school yard footy and the best player has to be captain.

This is puerile, even from the likes of Cornes.

 

[TradeDraft]

No wonder he works at Channel Carlton

 

[Scodog10]

Wonder if he'll block me for my response

He’s 100% going to clap back at that

Omg. It just keeps getting worse.

You guys do realise that this is all just rage bait and that it's achieving exactly what it's intended to do? It's the off season, no trades are happening and it's a proven fact that you can get more attention, from bad news over good news. KB did this to perfection for about 40 years.

Cornes taking his frustrations out on Darcy Moore now on SEN calling him out for the season he had. :s

Shows why people don’t have much Respect for certain Jurnos

Think Houston still has a week to serve on his suspension - Leppa needs to factor this in, get a discount and sign it all off

Can we appeal his suspension?

 

[NMBB]

You lot think trade week is boring - you've got no idea...
Imagine sitting up here in this pile of poop for weeks


Occasionally get to raid the Altona wetlands or the Botanic gardens though

Stop being rational and join us in the pile on against Cornes and Edmund

Houston wants to get back to Vic for genuine family reasons apparently (hence the request to be traded to Vic and not to a specific club) and I think Port will do their best to honour that. As long as we put our best foot forward in making a deal I think that they’ll let him go.

We will get to an agreement that suits all parties. Trusting Leppa on this.

 

[jimmy35]

Leppa will get it done. Radio and TV need clickbait’s to fill in the time.

"Do Collingwood need a new captain that can lead them to a premiership?"

"We'll be right back after the break to talk about 2023 premiership captain, Darcy Moore."

They deleted the tweet of it too much backlash already.

Meanwhile Essendon can't even get my man Conor Stone across from the Giants.

I have been critical for a while, but he improved slightly very late.

But looking at it broadly, I think Collingwood are a club who needs a firecracker put up their arse and its what can sharpen them up a bit.

I see a bit of focus on underperfprmace that is warranted, even if a bit out of context right now, as a gift.

 

[The Royal Sampler]

OMG

These guys drain it man

Now Houston is most likely of all the players being talked about to stay put now

Good f**king lord

I mean obviously he is.

a) he hasn’t nominated a team
b) he would be on a biggish contract
c) will require significant trade capital
d) hasn’t burned his bridges at Port

That doesn’t mean he won’t get traded though.

 

[Dead Eye Didak]

Sammy calling a footy fan petty. I think Sammy needs to go back and listen to his show this morning. The pettiness towards Collingwood was embarrassing....

 

[Geek]

Yep, totally agree.

If we put ourselves in port's shoes, we wouldn't want to let a dual all Australian go for unders either.

"Shoe". IF we put ourselves in Port's shoe.

They tend to get around only wearing one of them and even then, it's a thong

 

[The Majestic]

Now judging by that report from the Age that it seems the wheels are in motion and that Houston has agreed to terms with us, I think things will progress quickly. Doubt this will drag on into next week with any of the teams hoping the others will blink first as that will then waste time trying to get other deals done.

My gut feel is this will be announced Friday and then next week the media can focus on the lesser deals like Bailey Smith and Rioli.

I am hoping so, I am trying very hard not to get 'negative' about it but I just hate the dragging on and the waiting and seeing all the articles popup haha.

 

[Visions]

You should remind him he’s also a footy fan. But he’s meant to be impartial when he’s at work.

And ffs learn to spell, ‘the fact it's he's’ , is doing my OCD in.

Collingwood have the whip hand?
No they don’t. This idiot should be salty at Carlton and their refusal to give up pick 12 which would have got this done days ago.

If it wasn’t for Carltons stubbornness they would have had him already, especially if Carlton was his preference.

But they wanted to **** around and got found out.

Port cannot trade their F1 without approval from the AFL.
They haven't used enough firsts over the past period.

In yesterdays Age it stated the AFL have told Port they don’t need approval to trade their F1 and can do it.

 

[Basil brush]

A Carlton fan posted this in the Houston thread on the drafts and trading forum...

We should wish him our best.

“Another week of this shit ffs.

My dream scenario.

Pick Collingwood, blow up their list strategy, miss the 8. Bloke is good, but seriously overrated.

Pies will have 1.8mil plus a year locked up in 2 HB flankers. One averaged 18 touches a game this year, the other has likely peaked”

You can say it’s a bit ridiculous to assume Kane is trying to steer Dan away by tearing through us on radio but I honestly believe that’s what he’s doing…

 

[The Majestic]

Already happening and its funny to watch, he'll squirm a bit today.

 

[unplugged]

Wonder if he'll block me for my response

You should tweet him saying you hope to get the Richmond fixture double-up this year, which was so influential in Carlton limping into the 2024 finals series.

Would not shock me at all

Good, but you probably should have just called him a cnut.
