A definite no to Tim Membrey - his best football is behind him

Bit harsh, he's a goal a game forward and he kicked 14 goals alone in the last six games this year, for his price, well worth a punt.

Plus he's been a regular 30-40 goal forward

If the deal was off we would have heard about other ways Luko, Richards and Noble are moving.

No rumours have leaked out.

Port would be seen as the bad guys to Luko, Richards, their managers, family, etc if they cancelled one deal and didn't have another way to satisfy people that they had made promises too.

It's actually farcical how it's all being staged

So Morris, Barrett, Ralph, Twomey et al up until today knew ALL the details, ALL the wheelings and dealings, knew the board blocked the deal, knew what the sticking point was. They knew it all. In detail.

But now today...no idea where it sits? None of them?

Come on.

 

[unplugged]

Show me the money 3 is going to rate through the roof

As cringe as that show was, I hope they do another season. CSM have featured quite a bit so it would be good to see any Houston back story.

 

[Ugene41]

They'd be better racing for pick 11.

Houston doesn't want to go to you fools but Fremantle might want to take 11 off the table and more importantly if NM are stupid enough to offer up a F1 Fremantle would be stupid not to accept.

Either they keep that juicy pick for themselves and potentially use it in the race to get Warner next year or they give Richmond the option of 10 and 18 this year or the F1 by itself.

I really don't understand this "threat" of North now getting pick 13 for their F1. Then what? They offer pick 13 to Port for Houston? The same Pick 13 that they rejected when they also got pick 29 and 36 as part of the deal?

What else will North offer that will blow our offer out of the water?

Actually can't wait for tomorrow to happen and confirm that conspiracy theory once and for all, it's headache inducing.

Hutchy being in debt he's gotta make money somehow to run his 5,000 horse racing stations no one listens to.

So we have CalTwomey saying North still keen on Pick 13 but then Jon Ralph saying North is out of the Houston Trade

Hard to know how to Believe

I'm tipping Houston will get done between pages 1580-1590 of this thread. Sportsbet odds ????

They did the same with Carlton when they picked up 14! They were like “well now Carlton have both picks to throw at Houston so they’re still in it.” They were never in it exactly like North.

10000-1. We’ll be at 1590 by the time the next shift on trade radio starts hah.

If we don't get to page 2000 are we really fans? Did we really try and will it in to existence?

I think the Houston part of the deal is fine. It's the Lukosius hlaf where they're getting flogged.

Houston is being sold for future first, 36, Richards and Noble.

They're then onselling most of it and all up are selling 2 future firsts, pick 39 and Noble for pick 13,29 Lukosius and Atkins. That's not a good deal for Port.

from Connor’s sports

You know Port are hard work when you'd rather go outside to talk to a brick wall.

So that's where this stinker of mine came from - and here I was putting it down to secret women's business. No wonder I've been popping the Panadol. I would have gone the valium route, but I'm fresh out after the last couple of seasons we've had, and I couldn't get in to see my dealer. Maybe I should have hit up Oliver's or something instead.

 

[Tadpole]

Well, he's certainly full of something. Whether it's crap or something else remains to be seen.

 

[celestial]

Having to deal with the bimbos at GC will also make you feel that way.

 

[Ugene41]

They did the same with Carlton when they picked up 14! They were like “well now Carlton have both picks to throw at Houston so they’re still in it.” They were never in it exactly like North.

The only other explanation is that North are interested in Pick 13 irrespective of Houston. In which case, Port can just take the pick 13 from the 3 way and on-trade it for North's F1 if they think that's worth more.

Make it a 4 way trade and Port can walk away with North's F1, Pick 29 and Pick 36 for Houston whilst trading pick 39 for Richards and their own F1 for Lukosius/Atkins

 

[Couch Coach]

Could be worse they could be dealing with Mackie.

Geelong have had all trade period to improve pick 17 but have done nothing.
Picks 3, 9, 12 and 14 have all moved but Mackie has done NOTHING. (fecking cnut!)

 

[Crazy Tails]

It could be Ryan

I suggested him the other day; it makes sense. He’s from SA (Glenelg), has had a few years in the system (not sure if Port liked him the year we drafted him) and plays in a similar back half position. We would still have TJ to develop there as long term Howe replacement.

Probably better than adding Atkins to the deal. The fact he could have 8 more years as opposed to 1-2 with Atkins might appeal. If we add Ryan then maybe we can hold back 36 or get more than 58 back.

Dan would have officially been a Pie already if Port didn’t knock back the deal

Wonder how the discussions are going. Need some good news in the next couple of hours.

Gary Lyons logic :

WB ( title contender) trading smith to fellow title Contender =

Port trading Houston to Collingwood =

Under contract or OOC, it is an asinine take
