Strategy Trade and List Management Thread Part 7 (opposition supporters - READ posting rules before posting)

[ArNcHiSe]

Bye B**ch.
The long been on the cards, is nothing short of saying Cotton On have been colluding this for years.
Make a stand Sammy, send him to the PSD to prevent Cotton On and Geeling colluding to take any of our players in the future.

What are Geelong going to do, complain to the AFL.... who brought in said rule after the Chris Judd Visy deal at Carltank.

We loose maybe pick 18 after bids matched, but we would send a statement the dogs won't suffer external sponsors manipulating our players to get them to the sponsors destination club.

Sending a player to the PSD is always the dumbest suggestion by fans. You’re hampering your club for a “statement” that no one gives a shit about. Its fake tough guy bullshit.

 

[SweatOnMySkin]

I think we just take the first and lean on them for a second rounder to go with it and just move on. the guy is a cultural stain anyway. Make the most of it and focus on the draft

 

[Pugz89]

Geelong ITK on their board saying they are hearing that SDK is now possibly on the move. Sounds more a part of the Oliver deal with maybe the Blues involved though. Good in a way even if we don't get him, Cats still have all their picks to trade...

Apparently a 3 way trade with Blues, Dees and Cats.
So looks like Blues gonna nab SDK based on that.

 

[geoffjennings79]

What would we do? Use our first round pick on him basically.

The fine print under the thread title, I know it's hard to read, but if you squint you'll see it:

"Opposition supporters GFY"

 

[VitalDread]

VitalDread hmmmm

 

[Substance]

Walk him the the ND then. Make sure we get a pick before geelong. I'd laugh.

Rivals getting stronger whilst we lose players and won’t be able to get much done?

Any way to just tune out of footy for the next couple of months?

Who says we won’t get stronger?

Don’t you want change? (Even if it’s only the draft?)

We’ve seen the same, slow, contested shit for years whilst hiding slow mids who can’t get mid time at half forward.

Let’s see if the Smith/Martin/Oliver gamble pays off at the cats because it’s no certainty. There’s big baggage there.

I want change, but not the draft. Established talent, it’s what all the recent flag winners have but we typically only get role players. We only have a few years left of prime Bont and need to make the most of it. Any draftees from this season or even last would only really start to have an impact after his prime passes.

My reference was also more towards Carlton, I’ll spew if they end up with SDK out of it. I agree it would be a massive gamble for Geelong if they ended up with all 3. They are still top heavy and rely a lot on their older players like Cameron, Stewart, Blicavs. Duncan looks fairly cooked now & Hawkins is gone

Seeking mediation may be a more likely pathway.

Treloar was our best player in our most recent Grand Final. We brought in bookends in one trading period a couple of years ago, and our KPD pillars are both acquired.
We trade enough.

How would Carlton possibly land SDK and Houston? Surely it’s one or the other

 

[Mutt]

Yesterday, several people posted here in a very belligerent and combative manner, which was a poor performance by them and wasn't appreciated by most posters who tried to be civil.

Should the same shitty behaviour continue today or in the future, some temporary or permanent thread bans will be in order.

 

[grassman75]

He truly is, some of you would choke on your cornflakes if you how good he is

Think this says it all really and I love him even more for it

View attachment 2129499

Love that he follows a loose unit like Cheese but not Baz

 

[grassman75]

I'm astounded how people here actually rate him highly.
Knowing people who have worked with him closely, they don't rate him either so I have no idea what some people on this board see in him. Each to their own I guess.
I'd love it if I he became a consistent afl level player and proved me wrong, but I just don't see what others do.

The debut was bad….deer in the headlights stuff

Port are probably fairly unlikely to let him go because they didn't get Cumming or Perryman which they had expected to

Says a lot. I know Adz tried to give us the whole 'we're all mates etc' line on the narcissist before last night, but I highly doubt that. But that's OK, he's got a mirror and that's all he needs.

 

[Doggy]

He won't be the first or the last to play like that in his first game. That should not define him

The Social club will be rocking at the Cattery

 

[MaxiBont]

AFL media is one of the best immature in the sporting world.

Guys like Morris, McClure & Twomey try so hard to be like the NBA/NFL breaking news journalists.

I don’t think it’s worth worrying about unless it’s a nomination for a club from a player.

There was about 5 different reports yesterday about Peatling with different clubs as favourites.

I avoid everything the media says it’s a circle jerk culture.

How many times do we hear them talk about each other always being on the mark and when they go with something it’s always true forgetting that the Mclure for example might have gone with 50 stories and got 2 right.

It’s the same when Bevo attacked Morris every media person came out supporting Morris. Then when Morris got outed for what he is they were completely silent.

Our footy media is pretty pathetic and they state opinion as fact, hold grudges and pat each other on the back

Except for Caro. She insinuated that a family member of Bevo leaked the Tom Morris videos.

 

[Doggy]

Geelong supporters thinking they'll just give us crumbs and not even their first rounder

Bunch of flogs

 

[yebach]

What would we offer for a player that had a poor year, then another year wiped out by an ACL. Who is know to be a loose unit, loves Columbian icing sugar and a 'look at me' flog to boot?

Twomey to me seems the most genuine with the best mail..
