Rumour Tales from the Henley Beach Cafe 2: Crows 2021 Rumours

[Scorpus]

I wish I was Adam Cooney and was paid to make up the stupidest trade I can think of for shits and giggles.

I'd love to make up some 18-club mega trades that are extremely hard to follow but would generate an hour of discussion

It aint easy with our wonderful club at the moment!

The amount of people that fail upwards in the AFL industry is pretty staggering.

I've said it before, but I suspect we may well be trying to kick the can down the road in terms of the draft.

So splitting the pick would involve a future 1st, rather then 2 this year. Just getting that feeling we may have a relatively boring off-season when it's all said and done, and next off-season might be substantially more action

Id swap 4 for a pick around the 6-7 mark and a 1st rounder next year..

especially with the tigers… i’d say they might be in for a couple of average seasons at this point… I reacon a lot of their cattle are quite content with what they’ve acheived in their careers now and are just going through the motions until retirement hits..

That's the universe where GWS have some serious buyers remorse for their monster Cognilio contract.

I'd almost wish that problem on Port considering they're fast entering no-mans-land, and adding that contract could tear them apart.

But... but... they'll never tear us apart?

Not at all... ultimately it's a good thing I guess... but not much fun for us.

You can tear something apart thats already TORN.

or Can you?

Not here for cold hard facts - I'm here for footy discussion.

So, I've got no issues if people are talking about footy or something that is in someway related to the topic but there are a group of the same posters who seem to derail every thread with crap like discussing Alex (ffs, nobody cares) or whether FAITH is posting under a new alias etc.

It's actually not too much to ask for that group to keep all that crap to one non-footy thread, so that others who are more time poor but want to participate in the community can, without having to wade through shitpost after shitpost in every thread.

people who complain about the content others produce are the worst

It's more that they'll never tear us apart but we can tear ourselves apart

Seems to be an issue across a lot of NFP’s unfortunately.

this is hilarious..

that might be high for coniglio’s contract

This will come in handy over the quiet summer, when you need a pick me up and a reminder of how good footy is.

That was gold from beginning to end

"We exist to win premierships"

"Favourites to get Dawson"

"Still in premiership window"

So much delusion, so much, tempered with one sobering reality

"Hinkley is contracted so should whether any criticisms of last nights performance"

 

[FR0GGY]

Coniglio seems like the quintessential power player.

The slick hair, the hand signals after goals, (mask?) boring

best bit is if their premiership window closes next year when Gray, Boak, Dixon, Jonas etc depart..Hinkley would just be finishing up - so he effectively see out the last embers of their window and passes on the batten just at the very time it does not matter

That makes drinking their champagne tears so much more tasty.

There should have been a soundtrack of chuckling on that news segment after each stupid statement, with the biggest chuckle saved for the Hinkley bit

Im not drunk, but Cerra to the Crows.

Hawks would be crazy not to get him.

Trade wrap: Bulldogs tall to meet with rivals; how Blues may poach star without a trade

If negotiations stall, Silvagni suggested the Blues could threaten to walk away from negotiations and use the very rare pathway of the national draft to select Cerra.

Both Cerra and the Blues would be taking a major risk, because there’s a chance another club would draft him first. North Melbourne, GWS, Adelaide, Gold Coast and Hawthorn all pick before Carlton.
